Another never-uploaded vid from 2016. This time a tribute to Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation. He's a passionately moral, upright figure who is one of my sister's favorite characters of all time.

This AMV is an absolute labor of love. If you love Eruri, please give it a watch and share with your Eruri friends. ๐ I fell into SNK in February of this year and in my voracious love for Erwin and Leviโs bond, I found so many incredible fans who put together huge collections of scans, creator/VA quotes, and official content showing how much Erwin and Levi love each other and are each otherโs special person. These receipt posts (some of which I link below) were the inspiration for this video edit. I wanted to include the most tender and meaningful things about Eruri, within the manga/anime itself and in other official sources.
๐ถ Share the Eruri love ๐ถ

๐ถ More Receipts ๐ถ
Even with all this content, I couldnโt even include everything I wanted to in this vid, including:
โข The Universal Studios Japan wax exhibition that indicated Erwin and Levi shared a room.
โข The scene between Erwin and Levi in 301 of the anime, which included a shot of two books on a bedโa trace of a standard logo for R18 BL (adult boys love manga/doujinshi).
โข The SNK audio play, โOperation: Hospitality,โ in which Mikasa observed that Levi shared his meals with Erwin after every expedition.
โข The famous June 2019 Animedia article that called Leviโs love for Erwin romantic.
โข The SNK Smartpass short story (โGoodnight. Sweet dreamsโ) in which Levi compares the sea to Erwinโs eyes.
โข The Aug 2021 audio drama (โCrumbled Castle Gateโ) in which Erwin and Levi share a tender, intimate conversation with one another in the rain.
โข And many more!
๐ถ Arigatou ๐ถ
I want to thank some individuals (and their posts) specifically for inspiring this vid and providing so much to the Eruri fandom. Your accounts have been inspirations, and I am eternally grateful:

I havenโt made a proper fanvid in almost 3 years (partly because my computer kept hogging memory when I uploaded anything to Premiere Pro). Got a new computer recently and was totally inspired to make something once Wizards hit Netflix. The Tales of Arcadia universe has that strange It factor for meโa subtlety in writing and characterization, an artful use of the quiet moments between dialogue, a stunning soundtrack that is on par with animated films, gorgeous and stunning world building across multiple genres. And most importantly, TOA features understated heroes who quietly push themselves to such extremes of goodness and sacrifice. Jim carved a place for himself in my hall of Heroes for everything heโs done for others and Iโm just astounded that now TOA features twice in my hallowed hall (joining Hiccup, Tony Stark, the Tenth Doctor, and Jim Lake Jr.).
Thereโs such a quiet conviction in Douxie, a belief that by just quietly and doggedly *doing good*, he can earn the Mastery of Life his master kept telling him about, never realizing that after 900 years, itโs the very belief that heโs not quite there that makes him wise, makes him humble, and makes him worthy. He kept seeing the staff as a synecdoche, a summation for the whole person a wizard is, as a means of validating his worth. And so he never realized that he already achieved wisdom without it.
Merlin never approved of Douxie. And it hurts to see him treated as a servant in Camelot by the only person he knows as father. Yet it does not make him hate Merlin. He just tries to follow his advice with even MORE conviction and humility than before. His first meeting with Merlin is a perfect encapsulation of Douxieโs relationship to Merlin: Doux immediately bows to his master (he still respects him, even though he abandoned him for a millennium!), then snarks with 900-years worth of frustration, and then immediately jumps into kid-like enthusiasm about how much magic practice heโs achieved since they last met. Only to be sidelined for the Heroes of Arcadia, whoโve spend maybe 2 years max fighting death and witches. Yet Douxie doesnโt throw Merlin under the bus after such a monumental f@#*-offโHe just keeps trying to prove himself and do good. He just refuses to let other peopleโs failures get to him or affect the goodness in him. (Hell, he even took Jim and Morgana!Claireโs insults at him in the restaurant scene in Trollhunters 304 like a champ.)
And this dogged goodness is what eventually convinces Merlin that heโs been wrong about DouxieโHe wasnโt just a servant, but a son. Not just someone to teach, but someone to love. And heโs wronged his son for eons by not giving him the love and support he deserved. Heโs a better person than Merlin ever was, more dedicated to being a Wizard-Hero than merely a Wizard-Sage. Putting his own life on the line to preserve the life of the people he loves and the lives of everyone. Because he holds himself to a higher standard, because he has this power, because he *can* do something.
This vid celebrates Douxieโs growth and relationship with Merlin. How much Douxieโs frustrated by him, how much he loves and misses him, how much he feels like, despite everything Merlinโs done to him, Merlinโs advice and presence in his life meant he had a father, had someone who taught him how to live. He wasnโt perfect, but he was his dad.
(Personal note: Like Doux, it seems the most Iโve learned from my parents sometimes is how not to live. That you canโt be caught up in your own pain and bitterness so much that you lose sight of how to take care of others. They gave me the foundation of what goodness I have, but ever since I reached Douxโs age, they couldnโt give me the mentorship and support and parenting I needed, and in the end, it was their children who had to parent them.. I guess thatโs how I connect with Douxie too, because we both had to somehow grow up on our own, with what wisdom weโve gained from the people who raised us, who emotionally vanished from our lives when we needed them most.)

For Round 1 of the Who We Are Contest [WWAC] by thesongcontinues (https://www.youtube.com/user/cutiegemma123/)
For this round we make a happy video explaining why we love our character.
Last semesters class stress messed me up enough for me to rediscover my old friend Tony Stark and all this new angst hes experienced in Cap 3: Civil War + all the killer meta out on tumblr on how hes such a Tragic Hero, pushing himself so hard to do the right thing that its quite literally killing him. Some parts of fandom think hes only out for himself but everything hes ever done is try to protect the world with the undeniable resources hes got + to make up for the mistakes hes made in the past. #TonyStarkDefenseSquad
His heart and soul just shine so bright amidst his own darkness and failures and it just hits me so personally sometimes. Plus his intense sense of responsibility/sacrifice and vulnerable humanity remind me a lot of my other faves โ the Tenth Doctor, Luke Skywalker, and Hiccup. Ah. My heroes...
Anyway, this was a happy vid for the first round of the contest explaining why I love Tony. While most recent Tony vids are deep in angst I chose to make this one more upbeat, focusing on Tonys cheekiness, utter dorkery, inventiveness, and badassery (Im SO here for the only-partially-armored/IM3 aesthetic lol). Anyway, the last scene in this vid pretty much sums up the happy side of why I like him LOL. (also did you catch the post-CW Pepperony angst in the midst of all this happy? Honestly poor Tony!!)
Ive always wanted to be part of a character contest so this was TOTALLY exciting to do (even if Premiere Pro decided to be a beast to me this time around).

This video is dedicated to two of my favorite people on YouTube. Two awesome vidders and inspiring people of faith who have been good friends of mine since I was first here doing fanvids. Their names are HICCUPTOOTHLESS94 and WHISPERTHEWOLF. Go check them out!

First off, I know Im late to posting your gift, HT94! Inspiration for an HTTYD vid was slow in coming and then classes started up again and I was hard-pressed (hence the month since last upload!). Today is Whispers birthday and I didnt want to miss another of my friends birthdays *again* so I hope you dont mind a shared dedication (as well as you, Whisper). Ill be better next year. Promise!
hiccuptoothles94, youve been a wonderful part of our little Circle on YT. Your faith has always shone and your optimism was always an inspiration. Thank you for being my friend here. May God always shine His blessings and strength on you as you adventure through life.
WhispertheWolf, you are very special. I listed quite thoroughly in my last birthday gift to you (from 2014โฆ sad) how much your eloquence and knowledge have excited me to do things and learn more. All of that is still relevant and whenever I think of our conversations I picture beauty and maturity. Your heart has always shone bright in the midst of life circumstance. Thank you for being my friend.
โ about the vid
The vid itself is quite simple. I seem to be getting into an epic/legendary motif with HTTYD lately. Guess its the second movie and Hiccups rise to chief. The song is actually based off a tune from the film King Arthur (2004); thats an easter egg for you, Whisper! ;)
