Been meaning to pick this back up for years, and it's still miserably cold over here, so that means it's still WINTER. And what better way to finally bring this series of posts back then with another Metroid Prime track, especially to celebrate the release of Metroid Prime Remastered? Which everyone should go play immediately. … Continue reading Winter Video Game Music: Phendrana Drifts Depths (Metroid Prime)

Fictober Day 4 (Late): “That Didn’t Stop You Before” (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
It's migraine month apparently. Anyhow, it was only a matter of time until I wrote a Metroid fanfic for Fictober. I'm not 100% happy with this one, but after writing and editing it through some bad migraines I'll cut myself a little slack. Days 5 and 6 will be finished soon, also. Even with the … Continue reading Fictober Day 4 (Late): “That Didn’t Stop You Before” (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
Fictober Day 20: “You Could Talk About It, You Know?” (Metroid Prime)
GUESS WHAT I WROTE ABOUT A G A I N THAT'S RIGHT METROID Tallon IV. Zebes. Both vastly different, and yet so similar. Former homes of Chozo that had left the world long ago, to rejoin the energy of universe as one whole, leaving only ruins and warnings behind. But those were the lucky ones, … Continue reading Fictober Day 20: “You Could Talk About It, You Know?” (Metroid Prime)
Fictober Day 17: “There Is Just Something About Him” (Metroid Fusion)
Late, but things happen. Mostly some Internet troubles. I will never cease with my Metroid fanons and headcanons. Never. Sarah (who is briefly mentioned) is an OC with a backstory I'm not keen on spoiling as of this time. Carter is a Chozo AI that was given to Samus as a child and who eventually … Continue reading Fictober Day 17: “There Is Just Something About Him” (Metroid Fusion)
Fictober Day 11: “It’s Not Always Like This” (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
can i just get a metroid-themed fictober prompt list please and thank you She’d been up for too long again. Long enough to make the shadows bleed in the corner of her vision, to make her see things that weren’t actually there. Her body sagged underneath her armour, the weight of it so much greater … Continue reading Fictober Day 11: “It’s Not Always Like This” (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
Fictober Day 4: “I Know You Didn’t Ask For This” (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)
hey look it's metroid that thing i won't ever shut up about This is also not a funny one in the slightest! Only pain and doom and gloom here! My Metroid fanon is Way Too Big to fully explain here but one important thing to note, since it's referenced here, is that in my fanonverse, … Continue reading Fictober Day 4: “I Know You Didn’t Ask For This” (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)
Spooky Video Game Music: Dark Torvus Bog Hydrodynamo Station (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
(Fictober attempt derailed by college classes, but I'm still writing out the prompts. I just can't swing the one-per-day this time, I'm afraid) It's that time of year again! Spooky time! Which means... another set of spooky video game tracks for me to ramble about! Not sure how many this year, at the moment. I'd … Continue reading Spooky Video Game Music: Dark Torvus Bog Hydrodynamo Station (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
Winter Video Game Music: Phendrana Drifts Main Theme (Metroid Prime)
It's Christmas Day where I live and so I think this is a good time for me to start a new series. Wanted to start this sooner, but stuff came up. Anyway, here it is, a set of five winter level themes from video games that I like. This will be a yearly thing like … Continue reading Winter Video Game Music: Phendrana Drifts Main Theme (Metroid Prime)
Moving Video Game Music: Underwater Depths (Metroid Fusion)
Could it be? A track from the first Metroid game I ever played? It is! Four out of five. As this is a theme for an actual level and not a menu screen, I'll be able to ramble even more about it. Won't that be nice? ...Anyone? Metroid Fusion is a pretty creepy game, all … Continue reading Moving Video Game Music: Underwater Depths (Metroid Fusion)
Spooky Video Game Music: GFS Valhalla Depths (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)
So this... is a track. By far the most unnerving track in the entire game, among the most unnerving tracks in the Metroid series itself, and video games in general. There is an existential dread that this track fills me with, fitting for the area in which it plays. The GFS Valhalla is a derelict … Continue reading Spooky Video Game Music: GFS Valhalla Depths (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption)
