## go loud: a gideon the ninth fst

As threatened, before I let myself go nuts wallowing in cosplay and art, I muft acknowledge the gifts I was given when Gideon the Ninth did not even have a publication date. My three first readers gave me an FST, and the first FST I got was from paraTactician, to whom sharp-eyed readers following along from fandom may have noticed the book was dedicated to.

Obviously getting FSTs is the main reason why anyone actually writes a novel, let’s be honest with each other

1. introduction

2. The Killers - ’Bones’
I don’t really like you

3. Supergrass - ’Kick In The Teeth’
you cut me down, but there ain’t no use in crying

4. The Lonely Island - ’Space Olympics’
we can’t really enforce a curfew / as there is no light or sound

5. Editors - ’Papillon’
if there really was a God here, he’d have raised a hand by now

6. Assemblage 23 - ’Let Me Be Your Armor’
let me help you with the trials you’re going through

7. Bad Lip Reading - ’Carl Poppa’
this whole thing where random dead people try to kill me’s gotta go

8. Puscifer - ’Indigo Children (JLE Dub Mix)’
no more need for the old empire

9. P!nk - ’Please Don’t Leave Me’
can’t you tell that this is all just a contest

10. Radiohead - ’Where I End And You Begin (The Sky Is Falling In)’
like a house falling in the sea

11. Grieves - ’October In The Graveyard’
mighty is the bitter blade / crimson beaded water falling out of your grave

12. Zedd feat. Foxes - ’Clarity’
you are the piece of me I wish I didn’t need

13. Gordon Lightfoot - ’If You Could Read My Mind’
a ghost from a wishing well / in a castle dark or a fortress strong

14. Suzanne Vega - ’The Queen And The Soldier’
your Highness, your ways are very strange

15. conclusion
