NaViMaMo Vidlet: Slow Dancing in a Burning Room [Fringe]

[beccatoria]

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.

Aw! This was great! You had some great parallels here and as usual at the end of it I went, "CRYYY! IT'S OVER ALREADY?!" Too short. These things are such teases, you tease! ;P

Hee! I'm glad you like it, and yes, it's a bit of a tease. ;) But SO FUN TO VID. Seriously, vidlets are love. I do have some thoughts though, about the vidlets that come out as fully-formed pieces and those that are more like segments or trailers which I might, err, must on a bit once I've finished them all. But I'm totally happy that they're good teases! :D
