My crappy, crappy audition. The actiony, demony ones I attempted didn't make it very far or I just felt they lost the point, somehow. So I tried to go emotional and I think I really failed, but... At least I didn't use that ONE SAM SCENE I used in all the other projects. The possessed one. As much as I love it, when it's all I was using it's a bit tiresome. Not to mention annoying to edit and watch.
I did do a pretty lengthy story for this, but YT won't let me fit it in the description; I'll link to it in a moment, but it's all basically backstory for the two characters in this NOT from SPN. Dean and Sam have their original pasts because I'm lazy and I wanted to edit something that didn't corrupt the SPN timeline too much... Basically, in the past, Nami is an angel, Riku is human. They fall in love but Nami isn't allowed to, not with a human, not properly. So she's taken away from him, and he starts trying to get her back. He makes a deal with... um. Maleficent, but instead of bringing Nami back, which she can't do but lied and told Riku she could, she turns him into a demon- but so weak a demon that he has to steal life from other people just to keep himself going. He starts to forget Nami, killing and killing, blah blah blah. Present. Sam and Dean fall out over Dean's deal, Sam goes to visit Jess' grave and finds Nami there, who talks him through a lot of his past. Meanwhile, Dean ends up in hospital, where Riku basically goes after him, stopping his heart, and, realising who the demon is, Nami teleports Sam to the hospital (note: he doesn't poop for a week afterwards xD) and Sam gets upset over Dean, unable to see Riku or anything. Nami talks to Riku, he's shocked, loses grip on Dean, who's heart restarts, and he hugs Sam. Riku runs and glomps Nami, all happysad 'cause he's found her but he's a monster. And because he needs the life, he tries to steal Sam's, who starts bleeding and Deany screams and Nami panics and takes the life away from Riku, giving it back to Sammy. Riku isn't dead, he's just very weak and unconcious, so Nami makes sure he can't attack the brothers and potters off back to heaven. Long story short, at least. That's basically what's in the fanfic, anyway, but I forgot to mention that Nami was supposed to look after Dean, but decided she had to get Sam back with his brother, or there was a chance Lucifer could find a way to get poor Sammy alone and vulnerable... y'know, from beyond the hellgate and everything. I forgot this was supposed to be set in season three. -dies-

Anyway, about the video- there are one hell of a lot of mistakes in here but the rendering is the reason it's screwed up, I promise! T-T I worked really hard on this, even the lazy non masked bits were supposed to be kind of thought through, trying to show a little of the KH character's pasts because I didn't have enough SPN clips to really show much of Dean's past. I think Sam got a bit more screentime, flashback wise, but I had all the Jess clips and not much else. xD
This most likely won't get me into Fantasy Rising because it sucks and is incredibly lazily done. I'm sorry for some of the glitchy masking, especially that damned Nami clip (when she first speaks to Riku) but I just can't work on it anymore. I don't know why but I'm blocking on a practically finished video. T-T
Anyway, blehhhh. I would say the name of the song and artist if I could, but if I did YT will block this and rape my quality. So search the lyrics if you're desperate because I reeeeeally don't want this blocked or taken down.
And I know, I know. NAMIKU AGAIN. I'm sorry, but I wanted Riku as an emo demon and... she fit? xD She's the most angely looking KH character and she has scenes with him so I could be lazy. It was either Nami or... some FF character, really, 'cause I struggle to see Kairi or Xion as angels, to be honest.
I'll probably remember more to blabber about later, so I'll add it in as I think of it. :3

The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.
Im sorry its so short! ;A; Its kind of barely shippy and badly characterised but I had a stab at something serious. As much as I adore Tay-Tay Swizzle, Blue, editing to her is really difficult!
Soooooo, yeah. I dont really know what to say here.
Basic story is that Zack is part of a resistancy thing with Auron and Leanne joins, but hes bitter and grumpy with her once he finds out that shes only fighting to try and regain the throne, let alone that she ordered the destruction of his hometown.
But apparently chemistry wins out, or something.

![Untouchable; [ I Need This ]
Contempt loves the silence, it thrives in the dark; with fine winding tendrils that strangle the heart.
I cried so, so hard making this.
Ive been in a cheerful mood lately and all. If I had to use a song with my emotions this weekend, itd be something like a YOU BELONG WITH MEEE-EEEE-EEEE! kind of song.
But instead I made this and though I got so upset during it I love it to bits. I may only have two episodes of Vampire Knight, and they may have annoying red subtitles and a retarded watermark by a person that doesnt own the show... but I desperately wanted to make this after I watched the very ending to Guilty again.
I was originally going to dedicate this to Jordan (XxJordiii) but I decided to wait and download soome more episodes so I can make her something with KanaYuu, as much as it pains me to. xD She took the plunge and edited Zeki for me, even though she doesnt like Zero so much (he is NOT just a pretty emo boy! D:) so I figured itd be better if I attempted something with- blarg- Kaname.
But anyway. This is a pretty generic Zero tribute, although I throw Ichiru in for good measure. Hes like... my third favourite character. It goes Shiki then Ichiru and then Zero. xD Buut the episodes I downloaded were very Zero-central (totally on purpose) and stuff.
Only problem was, they were a little glitchy and so the quality might suck in places. The editing in this is minimal; just a little bit of colouring, some glow-whoring and my first try using a motion loop at the start. ^^; Not really raw editing- every clip is pancropped seperately and coloured and glowed and gaaaah... But the closest Ive been to it in a long time.
I do love Zeki. -hums-
And I do plan on editing it a lot more now I know how to download episodes from Youtube. :3

Oh, yeah- the song is My Skin by Natalie Merchant. Untouchable; [ I Need This ]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ib-NPXQeJr8/mqdefault.jpg)

![I wont save you. [arcane]
always with you, sis.
hoo boy I am rustyyyyyy after barely editing other than MEP parts for a hot minute. @Antiques-editing is running an IC at the mo where the theme was choosing a song from a piece of media that meant a lot to you. I was floundering around with options for a WHILE, but I wound up landing on two of the songs from Transistors soundtrack. Its a sliiightly older game by Supergiant, the studio who made Hades and Bastion, and like all their games the soundtrack is an absolute masterpiece. Back when I was at uni working for an indie newspaper I managed to squeak in writing about this game and although I cant access the article anymore (grrrrr capitalism charging prohibitively for their storage space for online archives) I know I absolutely GUSHED about it.
I originally watched Amy play Transistor over a very glitchy Skype call back in like 2014 or 2015? But the story is absolutely beautiful (though horribly sad) and I still well up a bit thinking about our tragic Sword Boyfriend. The music is used incredibly cleverly, too, it factors into the story a bunch and this particular song has my FAVOURITE trope - a dark reprise, which it morphs into over the course of a boss fight. I mixed the original In Circles with the very well put-together Cloudbank Duet by Protegit, and I layered some of the original _n C_rcl_s over the top at points to add a little more distortion.
Arcane also ruined me but I am the worlds slowest editor and havent gotten around to doing anything with it, so heres a Jinx & Vi & Isha (& Vander) lil video. I hope you like it!

![Not Alone. [ Psychic ]
Im spamming your inboxes! :3333
But, seriously, Im trying to make up for the soon to be serious lack of videos from me. :P
Okay, psychic. Im such a paranoid bint sometimes- this might seem lightening fast, but actually most of the video has been done the past few days. I was kind of just waiting to see if anything else happened I needed to add in. xDDD
This feels like /such/ a shameless copy of Blue-chans video. All the conversation bit is practically the same, apart from where Im too lazy to mask. I didnt realise I used the same clips for one part until I watched hers and literally kicked myself as mine was /just/ rendering. D:
Only Riku seems to have monologues, usually while other people are talking, so... xD I can cheat.
If you cant guess the colour scheme when there aren;t any voices (um, well, first off, Im worried about your mental health. Second;) its kind of obvious, but, I dont know. Red is Zackie, Blue is Nami, green is (damn it. Nicknames for him are HARD. xDD Uh, any suggestions, haha?) Riku speaking, and white is anything he thinks to himself. At the start (I nearly forgot ^^;;) Larxy takes eyllow, and I had Zexion as a kind of dullish greyish blue. xD I recommend either reading fast, pausing the video, or watching more than once during the part where theres more than one line going on at once.
I left out a line. Crap crap crap. Just pretend that Riku is so, um, enthralled by the sight of other psychics he momentarily forgets to listen... ^^;
Vague plot kinda thing is basically that Riku keeps having nightmares and such (which are old memories he doesnt want, like when he was betrayed and such) and starts giving himself illusions by accident, because I guess hes trying to take a look at himself and hes not sure he likes what he sees. xD Namines words from the letters keep swirling aroun inside his head, and, in the end, he caves in and goes to find her. Typical Riku stubbornness ensues, I think. =P
Cant think of anything else to say, really. :D

![Vegas Issues [Help...? D8]
M-my feathering! My BEAUTIFUL feathering! [wails]
I honestly dont know why its done this, but it buggers up the feathering on every render. Has anyone had this before, and knows how to fix it?
...Bitchy Demyx and creepy Marly are being RUINED by all this glitchiness.
And it rendered FINE, this section (well, up until the Deria-pregnant bit) a day or two ago, but I hadnt messed with an aspect ratios and the faces were REALLY skinny. And now theyre probably too wide.
And, BEFORE anyone asks (because someone is bound to and I will scream, since it really cant be THAT hard to search the lyrics. I do it all the time.) the song is Illusion by VNV Nation.
It seems Vegas felt like giving me a personal Halloween scare. Vegas Issues [Help...? D8]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jMtAlO6Ugrs/mqdefault.jpg)


![[ B R E A K ]
...Im so bad at this. xD
First one to use this song! YES! -punching air-
Uh, I just really like Three Days Grace but their songs are totally overused, so getting in first with the angsty emo Riku tribute to a TDG song is a big deal for me. xDDD The song literally came out yesterday, thats how quick I guessed Id have to be.
But. BIG but. This is kinda rushed and I dont like the effects much. Its a little messy, to say the least, but I adore the song so much... :3
Okay, okay, maybe partly because Adam is hot. But the music blows me away, every single time... I just dont make videos with their songs, simply because there are already tons of Riku- Animal I Have Become and Clud Striff(DELIBERATE! xD) amv - Nvr 2 L8s around.
I dont think Wicked Game has even been used though... That ones old, too... -cackle-
I said I bagsied doing this song with Riku first, and Im actually overwhelmingly proud no one beat me to it.
I noticed just now (eh-heh, this is SO late) that Youtube decided to be a fag and delete my studios audition thingy while I was on holiday, and care not to notify me. I disputed, but they spat back the (still blocked) video into my lap in a crumpled heap. Which is why its not up and the studios wont be returning, as I managed to get myself a nice shiny youtube copyright official warning. JOY.
So, I hopefully will get up a backup sometime soon, if Im allowed on the effing computer for more than an hour anytime soon (seriously. Two hours, today and yesterday. Thats how long this thing took.)...
Oh, and IMPORTANATLY HERE.
...Ahem, has anyone played Dissidia? Is it worth buying?! xD Cause its out over here tomorrow and Im probably heading out Saturday morning (and avoiding a trip out to a fun adventure muddy dangerous thing which is too cheap (its like a quid to wander in) and I know someone who broke countless bones there in one sitting. So a no go) to buy it with money I was saving up for... Days, Scribblenauts, Countless CDs, ACC. Gah. Still not sure of release dates for any of them, though. :/
