We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
‘Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well, they’re no friends of mine
Say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance
(Dancé!)
We can go when we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise ’em with the victory cry
In the 1st edition version of the Queen of the Demonweb Pits characters upon entering the said Queen’s palace were met with her secretary… looked quite similar ly except more arms. ;)))
Late to the party, but there are a few IRL pieces actually called The Dark Waltz.
The one whose melody would best fit would be the one by Hayley Westenra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLeqHlDOKWk
It even is descriptive of panel 4 at 0:58…
…albeit I’d still wish Wormius made his own music for this one, too
So far all the songs in the comic have been ones that exist only in my head, with the exception of the tune that Phawkes was singing along with in the club, which is a personal favorite of my own and one that I imagine might happen to find its way across the planes to an inter-dimensional adult entertainment venue.
I wouldn’t know, sorry. Haven’t seen any Batman movie yet nor I like much the super-heroes theme in general, nor aristo-Batman in particular (so neo-Victorian!). And worse: if I would have happened to actually watch it, it would have been most likely doubled into Spanish anyhow, so I would have gotten lost in translation most likely. But nice to know anyhow, TY.
wormius thank you for not killing off moon blade and her girl friend what can I say I really hate October well just the third week of it lost too many loves on that week it was nice to finally have something happen with hope for once in my life so thank you kind sir thank you
Delve has some rough spots to get through in the coming episodes. I’ve known where it needs to go for a while now, and the characters have some trials yet to face. The underlying theme, however, has always been Hope. It’s the one thing that kept Bree going in her search for her friend when everyone else thought she was dead, and it may yet prove to be the one thing that saves them all, when things seem darkest.
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
‘Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one a’ more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love
She has some sweet moves.
Now this is what I’m talking about when I say “let’s dance.”
You put your left foot in, you take your left foot out
You put your left foot in, and you shake it all about…
…What?
We can dance if we want to
We can leave your friends behind
‘Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance
Well, they’re no friends of mine
Say, we can go where we want to
A place where they will never find
And we can act like we come from out of this world
Leave the real one far behind
And we can dance
(Dancé!)
We can go when we want to
The night is young and so am I
And we can dress real neat from our hats to our feet
And surprise ’em with the victory cry
S (essessess)
A (ayayay)
F (effeffeff)
E (ee ee ee)
T (teeteetee)
Y (whywhywhy)
Dance!
Job description: discrete and diligent secretary.
Update: merciless demon-slayer.
You have to keep learning new skills, it’s a tough world…
Edit: “merciless demon-slayer”… AND blade-dancer.
‘Hey, kid. Have you ever danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?’
I don’t believe in “the Devil”. Too Christian for me.
I like snakes, dragons and the Lady of the Netherworld known in ancient times as Gaia though. Does that count?
🙂 It was a Jack Nicholson quote from the first Batman movie – Where the gangster was talking to the child Bruce Wayne after killing his parents.
In the 1st edition version of the Queen of the Demonweb Pits characters upon entering the said Queen’s palace were met with her secretary… looked quite similar ly except more arms. ;)))
Does anyone know the name of that song? I was trying to figure out what music Lassa was decapitating fire things to. 😉
look at the fancy title.. the dark waltz ..
um … I don’t know. That doesn’t seem like the kind of tune you could fight to.
Not sure about the actual music but, in any case, she’s not so much fighting as dancing and making love… with a deadly souled sword.

Wormius, after actually writting Bree’s and Tasche songs, you HAVE to do this one!
Yeah, this song needs to get ot of your head and into the outside world.
Such elegance, beauty and ferocity. Love those two.
*Flips fedora and grabs a mike* “Can I just have one more Moon dance with you, my love?”

Oops, that was meant as reply to Sara, sorry. 🙁
What happened to the monster’s flames?
I could be wrong, but I think they are different monsters.
Either the flames died out as their new forms hardened into their magma armor, or I just got tired of painting flames on them.
“May I cut in?”
It’s just a jump to the left.
And then a step to the right!

They’re gonna need some new dance partners. These guys go all to pieces in the presence of pretty ladies.
So the intelligent sword takes over in a good way.

The unrelenting adorableness of this arch got me a little teary, I’m not too proud to say. Well done.
Heads-up, image seems not to load.
