KENJI - UGHHHH JULIETTE WHY DO YOU LIKE AARON SO MUCH
JULIETTE - theres many reasons but I have a feeling you don’t actually want to hear them so please tell me, what did my husband do
KENJI - WHAT DIDNT HE DO, first he ate a cookie with a knife and fork again, second HE ORGANISED MY WARDROBE AND AFTER THAT HE GAVE ME 50 BUCKS AND TOLD ME TO STOP STARING AND TO BUY MYSELF SOMETHING SPECIAL
JULIETTE - oh boy
KENJI - YES
JULIETTE - to be fair, you got your wardrobe organised for free and he gave you 50 dollars so I don’t understand why your complaining do much
KENJI - BUT HE ATE A COOKIE WITH A KNIFE AND FORK, THATS NOT OK
JULIETTE - i will admit that is a little odd, I’ll talk to him about it
KENJI - THANK YOU
I was driving, alright, alone. So I was talking to myself, like I always do. I was almost hit by this rabid cow and my brain goes "Yowza, that would've hurt" and then I thought about how I didn't curse and then I remembered how Aaron said "Such foul language. Only those without proper knowledge would resort to such" Ok, idr the exact thing but you get the point, so I was like, heheh. I didn't. And then I though of this:
And then I cried a little :)
guys imagine warner having a full day of activities: buying groceries, going shopping, buying shit for his house and kenji just following him around and they spend the whole day gossiping

Hello! Here’s a dose of songs that remind me of Warner I promised ages ago, if you liked it there are more songs if anyone is interested.
Btw this will have spoilers!
BOYFRIEND - Dove Cameron
Basically this whole song reminds me of when Adam and Juliette were together. I don’t think there is specially one line but there are quite a few. “I don't need to tell you twice, All the ways he can't suffice, If I could give you some advice I would leave with me tonight”. “I could be a better boyfriend than him, I could do the shit that he never did”
KILLER SHANGRI-LAH - Psychotic Beats
I heard this on an advert for a tv show and was like ‘oh…yes’. I don’t really think I need an explanation, the song is just pretty badass so I felt the whole vibe was right. “I had to kill you, I’m really sorry”. “But you know what…ain’t nobody gonna change me”
HUNGER - Alibi Music
Literally the same reason for the song above. “I see you watching me with those eyes, I feel them watching me all the time”. “You’ve got secrets and I’ve got mine, but how do we know when to draw the line?”
I DID SOMETHING BAD - Taylor Swift
I felt like this also just fit, it reminded me of when he killed Seamus Fletcher because he had no regrets to it. “They say I did something bad. Then why’s it feel so good?” “Most fun I ever had, and I’d do it over and over and over again if I could”.
THE 30TH - Billie Eilish
I cried when I heard this song it broke my heart. But besides from this just being a masterpiece I felt like it related to Warner in the Believe Me novella when Juliette was thought to die on the plane back to Sanctuary. He was so scared to leave her alone in case anything happened to her because of the trauma of almost loosing her. I think because he wasn’t beside his mother when she died, he may hold some regret that she was alone. In the song, there are a lot of ‘what if…’ and I think it could shows Warner thinking of it happening and struggling to move on from it because of the paranoia of someone you love almost dying. “But I told you even then you looked so pretty. In your hospital bed”. “I remember you said you were scared. And so am I”.
SANCTUARY - Joji
It just felt like a warnette song and it’s just so adorable. I can just hear this playing in the background if shatter me was a movie cause they just love each other and deserve everything. “If you’ve been waiting for falling in love. Babe, you don’t have to wait on me" "Pull me oh so close, 'cause you never know just how long our lives will be" " 'Cause what you want is what I want, sincerity"
LIKE A ROLLING STONE - Bob Dylan
In Restore Me we were told that Warner was listening to this song on repeat and I understand why. It seams to relate to his life and how it has changed so much from Shatter me to Ignite me (and obviously keeps changing). I struggled to pick out chunks of this song to put in this list but if you listen to it then it will probably be clear. "How does it feel, how does it feel? To be without a home" "Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street. And now you're gonna have to get used to it" "You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal"
HEATHENS - twenty one pilots
I felt like this fits into the first shatter me book theme but also other books too. I thought it related to Warner because he is often misunderstood by everyone around him as they do not know, nor understand what he has been through. He is both a tragic hero and anti-hero. (Did any of that make any sense?) "Please don't make any sudden moves. You don't know the half of the abuse" "You'll never know the murderer sitting next to you. You'll think, "How'd I get here, sitting next to you?""
FATHER'S SON - Celeste
This feels like this song relates to Anderson, Warner and Adam. Warner throughout the series is almost trying to tell us he isn't anything like his father despite there being characteristics that are the same. Overall there is one clear factor that makes them stand out from each other. Warners emotions. With Adam and Warner it felt like the lines could fit Ignite me and Restore me. It feels like Warner is trying to process how the can be brothers with similar (but different) backgrounds but turned out to be completely different types of people. it reminded me of when Warner told Juliette he admired Adam for his capability to turn out completely different to him despite receiving Andersons abuse. "I know you look at yourself like me. With the same eyes, we both see through to the end" "I heard it's in your blood, baby. I heard you got the same taste in your mouth" "Maybe I'm my father's son, maybe I'm my father's son. Or, I'm nothing like you, or, I'm nothing like you"
SEVEN - Taylor Swift
This song feels to me like it could almost be from Juliette pov of when she was a child. It felt like the memories of their childhood together in Defy me. it was revealed that Warner and his mother hid in the closet to get away from Anderson and Juliette suggested to live underwater (bby). "And I've been meaning to tell you I think your house is haunted Your dad is always mad and that must be why And I think you should come live with Me and we can be pirates Then you won't have to cry Or hide in the closet And just like a folk song Our love will be passed on"
HIGHER LOVE - Lilly Winwood & Steve Winwood
This song is just so cute and I could imagine it playing when Juliette confessed that she loved Warner in Ignite me. "Things look so bad everywhere. In this whole world, what is fair?" "Worlds are turning, and we're just hanging on. Facing our fear, and standing out there alone" "There must be someone who's feeling for me"
Would anyone be interested in hearing what songs remind me of the Shatter Me series, specifically Warner?
unpopular opinion after finishing 2.5 books: shatter me was entirely ass and hot pile of garbage. The only good thing being aaron warner.
finished shatter me book 1 in half a day and my brother stared at me like i am a lunatic. My mother taunted me about studies. Fantastic.
