For [livejournal.com profile] 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.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I was totally going to email you this morning and add to my prompt that the key word was "burning", but you figured that out all on your own! ;)

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!

LOL, John Mayer. I like the idea of Olivia being in love with an idea in her head and not an actual person. The little glimpses of Fauxlivia and Peter add a bittersweet touch.

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
