kristyn, where do i even begin? we've known each other for a little over four years now, and it's amazing to think how far our relationship has come since we first (shyly, at least on my part! we've talked about how nervous i was to initially approach you because i was so intimidated askfjhaslkdfh) commented on each other's videos all that time ago. now, i can't imagine my life without you in it.
you're an absolutely wonderful and beautiful person, and you're an amazing friend. you've been strong at times when i couldn't be, and you've listened when no one else would. you've helped me through /so/ much, especially during the past few months. you've made me laugh and smile when i've needed it most, and i am so grateful to be able to call you my best friend.
hopefully, we'll get to see each other in person again soon. :')
anyway, i wish you all the happiness in the world. have a fantastic birthday, darling.

____________
just had a four hour ic with a group of friends and it was hella fun right until i gave up on this lol
we put our itunes libraries on shuffle and chose the first song that came up and luckily i got daughter (heart eyes)
i bought myself kh 1.5 for my birthday (finally???), and since i've been playing it for the past two days, i thought i'd be all nostalgic and make a sora/kairi video beCAUSE WHY NOT they're canon and cute and they make me happy so yeah
"i will not forget one line of this. not one day. i swear."

um so yeah this song came out today and i listened to it as soon as i woke up and was like "whOA CAPTAIN SWAN??????" so i made this
i had originally planned to focus on both emma and killian equally, in terms of their flashbacks and such, but ended up focusing more on emma 'cause let's face it—she's my bb favorite character person buT I LOVE KILLIAN TOO BUT JUST UGh
and also, i think it's noteworthy to point out that this is the first entire, uncut song i've edited in about....two years? probably longer. maybe.
this is dedicated to all the crazy, lovable people in the captain swan tag on tumblr because we had a hell of a time freaking out during comic con and during the days following and this is also dedicated to anna because she gets really emotional over captain swan too and i just love torturing her with these things so yeah season three cannoT COME FAST ENOUGH

uh hi guess who's back back again (with some angsty noerah) katy's back tell a friend
since my original video for anna's birthday was blocked in the united states because i used a copyrighted (coughcoldplaycough) song, i made her this one to make up for it! sorry, anna dear--i was going to send you the file of that one, but i deleted it from my computer right after i uploaded it to youtube, since i don't have that much memory on my windows partition within my computer.
i hope your seventeenth year is as spectacular as you want it to be. :]
in my mind, there is no concrete definition of "flow editing". there are so many different ways to approach and achieve the style of flow, and for the semi-final round of the probending tournament, i chose the style of flow demonstrated in the above video.
i know it's not traditional flow, and i know that this is unlike what i've been submitting. however, i felt that, if this ultimately is the last video that i'll submit for this competition, i'd better make this an entry i'm proud of.
and you know what? i most definitely am.
for this project, i wanted to stay as far away from any relationships (shipping, as us fangirls know it) as possible. because this series was not guaranteed a second season, and the creators had to cram everything into twelve episodes, the relationships are not executed as smoothly as fans hoped. there are clips in this video, however, that show the relationships between characters, but i've tried to present them simply in the light that the creators do, without any of my personal influence or manipulation.
i realized, while combing through korra footage, that there is so much more mike and bryan have given us besides material to defend pairings of characters with. each frame of animation is so painstakingly created and as a result, is breathtakingly beautiful. within the world of korra, there exists so much gorgeous scenery, such wonderful emotion expressed through the characters, and a wonderfully created plot line that the creators could have explored and developed further if they had been given more time.
each clip that i picked for this video is purposeful. each clip is from a scene which i felt was especially beautiful and deserved to be showcased.
i'm crossing my fingers and desperately hoping that my team makes it through to the finals.

when she saw him, clad in that tweed jacket and that ridiculously absurd (but somehow alluring) bowtie, she knew he was the one who would save her. her prince.
every time he spoke, he breathed, he moved, he laughed (she loved his laugh), every time he found the solution to a problem no one else could fix, she fell more and more in love with (the idea of) him.
she dreamed until she was sure she would explode into a thousand tiny stars, until she swore she would become a part of the sky she'd always wanted to see, until she was free--

tied together by a red string of fate, they were not reliable, teetering on the edge of secret whispers and desperate proclamations.

so when she kissed him, stealing the breath from his lungs and the words on his lips he could feel the thread snap

lolzjk i love this pairing so much
i was completely incapable of thinking of who to use for grownup!Kairi, but eventually figured that blue-eyed aerith was my best bet. i tried using color corrector to make her hair red, but that proved to be an absolutely horrendous idea, so i figured we could all pretend that kairi's hair is brown.
you know, it's weird--in the CGI cutscenes, kairi's hair is red, but in the in-game cutscenes, her hair is dark brown. i realized that today.
anyway, i hope (haha, HOPE) that this video/story isn't horrible and hard to understand.
autos & vehicles FTW again
and if you've read this whole description i love you so much

(He needed to get his mind off things. Off of lasers and black and white. Off of pain and endless dark.)
The streets of Radiant Garden proved a welcome contrast to the tranquility of the Islands. Riku welcomed the intrusion of traffic and crowds--they overwhelmed his senses, rendering him incapable of thinking about his multiple near-death experiences and the betrayal he had put his friends through.
(It made him stop thinking about almost losing Kairi and Sora and the darkness and Ansem and so much darkness blue and black and a dark violet which seeped from his very chest a stain he could not rid himself of--)
"Riku."
Sweet, like bells. Her voice was clear, crisp and untainted. Wind chimes.
He turned to look at her, and was instantly stunned by the brightness of her eyes.

we were standing in a subway car, our bodies swaying back and forth in time to the announcer's semi-computerized voice. the laughter from the group of girls behind me seemed impossible to ignore.
you stood in front of me, one arm stretched to grasp the dingy silver bar above my head.
we stood near the door, marveling over how great the concert had been.
you said something funny and i laughed, pure joy lighting up my features.
and then i looked into your eyes, and you looked into mine, and everything disappeared except you and me.
and when i flew back here on that plane, after those six weeks of seeing you every day, smiling and making my heart beat frantically, those tears that fell down my face as the plane left the concrete that belonged to new york city--those tears belonged to you.
now, you're on the other side of the country, where palm trees and blue water abound.
and maybe, just maybe, this california-born girl with electricity in her veins from your glance will eventually find you again. you, the man whose eyes i was entranced by in a subway car.
