Alright, to finish Scarlet's things. To give the short rank and place everything.

78. Lance's Champion Battle theme- HG/SS
46. Cid Highwind's Theme- Final Fantasy VII
37. Sera Was Never- Dragon Age Inquisition
9. Illusive Man's theme- Mass Effect 2
3. Theme of Ezio's Family- Assassin's Creed 2

We saw Lance's, I can probably chat more about that but over Discord if he missed that write-up at all.

Song- 7, Character- 5.5 (since unknown). Cid's theme was one of the few I listened to twice while doing the quick rankings, which is also where it comes in that I'm like "eh, X could have been higher" that I did for one song. His song is one I kind of like, but not one that pushes further than simply I like it. It has a really good melody, with both the forefront and just the extra higher pitched piece going along, and the snare line behind the rest. The rest of the song is okay, which keeps the song at a 7, rather than pushing to an 8. There's some things about Cid's character that I have an idea I'd dislike, but I shoved them away for the ranking. Once again, I can probably chat about this over Discord, I kept the 5.5 because of stating I have no knowledge, rather than going off what I have.

Song- 8, Character- 5.5; As Scarlet promised me this song longer ago, and then would keep singing a little bit of it during Borderlands everytime a Guardian Sera showed up on screen... Of course changing the lyrics to make it fit... I had a little more intrigue than dismissing it because of disliking the vocalist and not being that attracted to the character. The lyrics are fantastic however. Makes me feel like I know the character even if much of it could be lies. Maybe eventually I'll have possession of Inquisition and I'll be able to tempt my fate. It's not like she'll never be in my party (I just might not romance her).

Song- 9, Character- 7; This was a song I actually remembered from Mass Effect, even if I felt more like I heard it in the wrong place. I love the foreground melody with just the deep "pulses" constantly hitting, as it gives off just the intimidation and mystery of Cerberus, and especially the boss himself. It was very difficult to pick which to rank higher between 9th and 10th (which no one may ever know which song that is unless I choose otherwise), because I really loved both songs... This one literally won on the edge that even if I know basically nothing about the Illusive Man... It's actually the point compared to the person who ranked just below him. I don't know how to talk about the Illusive Man, I feel like I want to take in full exposure before I truly comment on him. He did top the 9/7 themes.

Finally...

Song- 10, Character- 5.5; One of 5 10 rated songs, and it comes from something I have not played. It begins with a perfect build-up of a chorus in the background, then has a touch of violin, ramps up and down. I'll straight up say it, I absolutely love the use of piano, and all the different strings+background chorus they bring into it. It even lovely pulls in an electric guitar without even making it overload at a point. I'm a sucker when it comes to orchestral music, and this one beautifully utilizes its melody to give off a peaceful feeling in Ezio's family up until it starts to end, and then gives this small intimidating presence as the strings crescendo to a point louder than it had been before that either represents the assassin himself, or something far more exciting.
