I didn't expect it to be a song parody that kicked off my stories for Final Fantasy XV. However, I was recommended this song by my Spotify and realized shortly after hearing it that I couldn't stop coming up with parody lyrics for it :) This song is what I figured would be a more realistic take on both Noctis and Luna's feelings given the situation in the game.
The parody is best read with playing the song quietly in the background and following along to the lyrics. Also, Noctis is mostly joyful and pumped while singing, so the repetition of the ending isn't him screaming at Luna that he's upset, lol! I just envision him getting a little too carried away :) Other than that, enjoy!
Noctis:
Hey,
I kind of can't help it but to notice
Your letters have lost their focus
Are you okay?
Hey,
You haven't confirmed on a wedding date
But with luck I should be there any day
~.~.~
I know it's been too long
Going on twelve years that I have been gone, and
All this time with no call
But kind of hard to call when a kingdom falls
And I-I-I will be there
And I-I-I will see you there!
~.~.~
So, Luna, do you wanna
Take a ride in the Regalia
That I borrowed from my dad
Does that sound sad? Maybe, kinda…
I don't wanna have to wait
Another decade just to say
I can't be patient much longer
We're not getting any younger
~.~
We're not getting any younger
We're not getting any younger
~.~.~
Luna:
You…might wanna sit down when I say this
I know that you are going to be pissed, okay?
I…decided to call the whole thing off
The Treaty won't last for too long
Anyways
~.~.~
Indeed, it's been twelve years!
Only met you once, don't you find that weird?
And
Yeah, these letters are great
But hard to have a relationship that way
And I-I-I won't be here
So, I-I-I won't be here
~.~.~
No, Noctis, I don't wanna
Take a ride in the Regalia
That you borrowed from your dad
No, it's not sad—well, just kinda…
I don't wanna have to lose
The freedom to pick or to choose
I can't hold this in much longer
We're not getting any younger
~.~
We're not getting any younger
We're not getting any younger
~.~.~
Noctis:
So Luna, you don't wanna
Get hitched right now? Oh my god—
In truth, I actually agree!
I thought you'd get mad at me!
Noctis/Luna:
So why don't we just go ahead
And take our time with this instead
And get to better know each other,
We're not getting any younger…
~.~.~
Noctis: We're not getting any younger--
Luna: No, we're not getting any younger
Noctis: We're not getting any younger
Luna: No, we're not getting any younger...
Noctis: We're not getting any younger!
Luna: ...No, we're not getting any younger....
Noctis: WE'RE NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER!
Luna: And Noct, we don't have that much longer...
~.~.~
(Noctis catches on to their dire situations and in resignation sings:)
Noctis: If we're not getting any older...
Noctis/Luna: Then I'll see you when we cross over.
Before the adlibbing for this sad conclusion, I actually had a funnier ending, sung by Noctis:
~.~
So Luna, you don't wanna
Take a ride in the Regalia?
That is fine; I'll respect that
Instead I guess I'll head on back
To this one pit stop from before
Met this cute chick with short-shorts
I'll ask for her hand from the owner
I'm not getting any younger!
~.~
However, Noct, I think Prompto would have something to say about that, XD! Also, I'll soon be writing a full story which will feature Noctis and friends as a band (inspired by the numerous commentary about the group looking like one) so if curious, be on the lookout for that.
Anywho, reviews are much appreciated!
