CAN U GUYS EVEN BELIEVE.

Okay freaking out set aside, this is actually me. This 4-minute video was actually me.

What can I say... this show! I did not expect to like it so much, let alone fall in love with it. It's just so good, smart, funny (I didn't expect it to be funny at all, and it's actually hilarious?? like?? how??) and overall amazing. 10/10 recommend.

And then, these two... Well, they are a couple of wonderfully written and acted characters. I don't know where this idea came from exactly. But it gave me the opportunity to do something I've wanted to do for a long time.

This is a kind of all-in-one video: a bit of character studies, a bit of platonic relationship study and then, in the end, romantic. I wanted to cover their dynamic fully. So that the romance, which only starts around 3 minutes into the video, feels like a natural progression, something organic and based on the things that came first.

When I showed some scenes from this show to my roommate, she drew a conclusion that I really liked. She said that there's a lot of love in this show but it's not the "sex on the table kind of love," it's the more mature kind of love that comes from friendship and life experience. And I think she nailed it. I hope that, whoever actually decided to watch it and stick til the end, will have the same impression. :)

Also, I've made it a tiny bit AU in a way, basically what would happen if s3 went in a different direction with these and gave us more than these as the comic relief. I know she meant that, like, come on. We all know. :'D

This project gave me so much joy. I really poured my heart and soul into it. I haven't edited something like this in a long long time. Everytime I opened the project, I loved it more. And even when I was angry with it, couldn't stay angry for long, and ended up loving it again. It was truly magical.

The song. THE SONG. It's what kept me going, so beautiful! I discovered it in a Homeland video by my friend Daisy. It's so captivating, you should definitely check it out: youtube.com/watch?v=cCwZMBaTCxk

Last but not least, since this isn't a popular fandom, I wanted to spread the love and dedicate it to the few people I saw that loved and/or vidded this show and couple:
gss42x, WonderTwinC and xDelicateMuse.
Your videos made me feel like I wasn't alone in this, and, Ginny, just because you never managed to vid it, doesn't mean I will exclude you. Spreading the looove! Hope you'll enjoy it. ^^

Speaking of spreading the love, thanks goes to my moral support Anja (sparksfly221), but also to Sara (Shainira) and Marie (Marie S). Thank you girls. ^^

I hope this will only be the first of twins for tonight... right Anja? :D
