For
grav_ity!
Okay, I really hope this is the sort of thing you wanted because I'm a bit nervous on account of how it skirts extraordinarily close to a plotline I know you detest. I wanted to do Peter/Olivia for you because, well, it was the first pairing you suggested for the song and also your favourite (though yes, I think the whole song might make an interesting vid about Olivia's relationships with everyone collapsing because she's all self-sacrificial and alone). However, because it's a song about endings and tragedy and missed chances, I couldn't see how I could vid Peter/Olivia to it and not deal with the S3 storyline, since it's basically the first time they've had something (potentially) collapse on them.
So...I decided to make it, rather than a love triangle vid, largely an Olivia/Head!Peter vid, about her isolation, with no one to save her or even realising she's gone: forgotten. Though of course, Altlivia does make her appearances, if brief.
Anyway, I just thought I'd set out why I vidded it as I did since I'm a bit nervous I might have gone in the wrong direction with it! *bites nails* ;)

I will index and crosspost all vidlets at the end of November or when I've done all the prompts if I decide to keep going to finish them.

This is AWESOME. Because I can deal with certain aspects of the tragedy, and this is totally one of them.
I especially love the "can't seem to hold you like I want to" while Olivia's getting pulled out of the tank. That's just fabulous.
To be totally honest, I picked the song only knowing the title (ie. I had no idea what the words were), and this is PERFECT!
