Oh wow. Wow wow wow. I was not aware this show was that pretty! And you came across so clearly despite me not having seen the source at all. Awesome!

[beccatoria]

Aww thank you! The show is beautiful and so gorgeously choreographed. I'm thrilled you liked it even without understanding the whole story. (Though seriously, watch these series, they're awesome!)

This is so, so beautiful. Loved the show, love what you've made about it here.

[beccatoria]

Thank you! I have so many feelings about this show. The way it spent its whole run shifting and changing and, like, narratively, being about such different concerns than its predecessor. I'm really glad you liked it.

This is so beautiful. The visuals are gorgeous and your editing of them to the jangly music works so well. I especially love the motion in the instrumental sections, I think those are just beautiful. I love the contemplativeness of this and the lyric interpretations, even if I'm missing some context and associations--such vintage beccatoria, I could watch it over and just wallow in how pretty and thoughtful it is. <3

JANGLY MUSIC! LYRICAL INTERPRETATION! OMGS, it is such an early-me sort of vid and I loooooved just making it like that. Also oh my god the show is totally gorgeous. Like so gorgeous, I'd forgotten.

I loved your vid! The song choice really worked for me and I loved the edits.

Thank you! This was totally a vid where the song hit me as perfect first and then I just ran with it, and I'm really glad that seems to be something people are responding too. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it! :D

Korraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! I know I already squeed at you in person but I was just rewatching this as I downloaded it and it's JUST. SO. GOOD. Like first of all the song is perfect but you've used it so well too, I love how much this is about endings and beginnings and the way things you thought you'd lost come back in new forms and leave you changed. And you've really captured how much Korra evolves and learns over the course of the show. UGH I LOVE IT BECKA.

Not a song I would have thought of, but you provide how perfectly on the nose it could be.

Loved your vid! The song choice and editing really worked for me. Thanks!
