continuing my analysis of this ridiculously cute splash animation source Part One

before maui even has time to think "wait where did my hook end up?"

OH HAI

BONK

BYONG

for a brief shining moment, maui's head is big enough to hold his ego. almost

nice catch.

but wait, lets look at that moment just a second longer, where he catches the hook

is it just me or does his new hook seem to have a hair trigger? first it boinks him into a half-shape he clearly didnt intend, then maui's fin barely brushes the hook before he's back to man-form.

like in moana 1 he always had to put a moment of conscious effort into it, like channeling mana or even just giving a little squeeze. but in the trailers & promo stuff he seems like he shifts almost before he's touching the hook, or on accident like this. maybe its because this hook is basically brand new or maybe because he was super rusty? but even in the heart stealing flashback, when he was easily at the height of his mastery he wasnt quite this snappy. smooth, graceful, nearly seamless, yes- but deliberate, in control.

does this point to possibly maui being stronger in his powers? could he one day progress to the point where he doesn't need to rely on manaiakalani* quite as much? maybe more able to remotely channel mana thru it? I'd love a thor/mjolnir "are you the god of hammers" development for maui.

this is the kind of juicy animation detail i thrive on.

im gonna have to make a part three so i can give the next few frames space to breathe, because oh my god is it cute. less than 2 seconds of animation that clutch my heart and squeeze it like a squeaky rubber chicken. I still havent even gotten to the article itself because im hyperventilating over the finale of this dumb little 4th wall break promo animation.

*the hawaiian proper name for maui's hook, and the constellation scorpio. yes maui is a scorpio, he is a textbook scorpio. scorpio sun, leo rising, sagittarius moon and i might have to present a ted talk on the subject very soon.

Etho stood at the edge of the cliff, the chill of the void’s eternal breeze biting through his coat. The endless expanse stretched out before him, waves of darkness rippling like liquid shadows. Stars blinked in and out, their fragile light dancing over the inky waters. Somewhere out there, Xisuma sailed.

His fingers twitched against the hilt of his knife, an old habit from days long gone. Now, there was no one to guard against but his own longing. Etho’s sharp eyes scanned the horizon, but all he found was emptiness, the same emptiness that had gnawed at him since Xisuma left. He told himself it was the void’s pull that ached in his chest, but he knew better.

Xisuma had promised he would return before the new moon, and the sky had already begun to darken with its absence. Etho tried not to think about how treacherous the void could be—how it devoured the unwary and swallowed even the strongest of ships whole. Xisuma was skilled, a captain who tamed the abyss, but even he wasn’t invincible.

Etho’s breath hitched as his eyes darted to the horizon again, and then he saw it—a faint glimmer, a light cutting through the dark waves. His heart leapt, the ache in his chest replaced by something warmer, fiercer.

The light grew closer, revealing the sleek silhouette of Xisuma’s ship. Its hull glistened with the faint reflections of the stars above, and the sails caught currents Etho couldn’t see, pulling it closer with haunting grace.

Etho’s legs moved before his mind caught up, carrying him to the shoreline as fast as they could. By the time the ship docked, his mask was damp from the mist of the void and the tears he refused to wipe away.

Xisuma stepped off the gangplank, his armor catching the faint starlight. The void’s energy still clung to him, a dark aura that made his presence larger than life. But Etho didn’t care. He closed the distance between them in three long strides and threw his arms around Xisuma, burying his face against his chest.

“You’re late,” Etho muttered, voice muffled but thick with emotion.

Xisuma chuckled, the sound low and familiar. “The void doesn’t keep time, love. But I came back, didn’t I?”

Etho pulled back just enough to look up at him, his mask hiding most of his face but not the softness in his eyes. “Don’t make me wait so long next time.”

Xisuma smiled, his hand rising to cup Etho’s cheek. “I’ll try. But you know, the void always calls. And I’ll always come home to you.”

The waves lapped at the shore as the void seemed to settle around them, the stars above flickering with quiet approval. Etho closed his eyes and let himself believe it, if only for tonight.

moana remake??????

[pixiedustchosen]

❝ there is a chill in the air. summer is well and truly through. ❞ moana!

Moana had noticed that the weather was changing. Gone were the days of the hot and warm weather, now came the days of colder air and the rains. "I'll miss going out on the boats. Swimming in the clear ocean, speaking with the water. But hey. Thats fine." There was plenty to do on the island, and her people were fine food wise.

Glancing down at the red head, she smiled. "I've seen giant crabs and monsters that would give anyone nightmares. Got to say, this is my first time speaking with a mermaid."

ngl i& wanna do the a.ila test w/ my& own indigenous women muses (note: not exclusive to indigenous american/canadian women, this applies to any indigenous women). incase you don't know what the aila test is, this is basically what it is:

so this'll be fun to do i& think especially as an indigenous / native mun myself&.

[valiantroyalty]

Moana: How do you know if you’re dead?

Meg: oh you’d know.

Moana: but I don’t! I don’t feel normal.

Meg: join the club.

[pixiedustchosen]

"It sounds amazing." Of course, Moana could only imagine of what it looks like. Just from the brief explanation from her new friend. "Well, i'm sure it is. Just like your Paris, on my island it is also exquisite and breathtaking. We live in Fales. No walls, and we have thatched roofs." Though, she wouldn't change anything of this scenery. It was lovely to wake up to this every morning.

What type of dancing. "It's a traditional kind of dance my people do. A hula, normally we dance when we have a celebration. Or there is me, who enjoys dancing down near the water." A tilt of her head. "What is a tambourine? Is that a instrument you use to dance with? As for a melody. Not sure how much use a conch shell will be."

“Oh, Paris is exquisite and breathtaking. It’s located in France and has the most magnificent architecture.” Her emerald eyes sparkled while she talked about her home. “The scenery is vastly different than this island.”

“Oh you are? That makes me wonder what type of dancing you do.” Esmeralda thought about her offer and immediately accepted it with a nod. “You have a deal. But could you assist me with a tambourine or a melody? My tambourine is in the caravan.”

after texting renjun and letting him know you were about to walk in, you take a second to breathe. you open the door after mentally preparing yourself for any confrontation and- wow he's cute.

seeing you walk in, renjun scrambles up to pull your chair out, almost tripping over himself.

"hi" his voice cracks, he tucks his hair behind his ear.

"hi" you say back as you take a seat. wow, he’s REALLY cute.

"i pulled up my portfolio so you could see what my work looks like" he clears his throat, opening his laptop, "i kinda already looked through your work when i saw you posted mark, you're really talented" a light blush spreads across his face.

you hum in acknowledgment, not hiding the prideful smile that spreads across your face. renjun spins his laptop around, and to say you're impressed would be an understatement.

"renjun...you are insane" you somehow manage to get out, even with your jaw gaping.

"did i do something? i'm sorry i didn't mean to offend you i-"

"no no! i mean just like wow...i'm not even mad you were being a dick before, i would be too if i had this kinda skill" you tell him honestly.

a sheepish smile makes its way onto renjun's face, "thank you"

"of course, i mean it." you say before taking a sip of the drink renjun ordered for you.

“okay so, i’ve been thinking about this all night” you blurt out before taking a bite of your cinnamon roll.

“since you appreciate earth’s natural beauty and i appreciate the people who make my life on earth beautiful,” you take a sip of your drink.

“and stay with me here now” you stare right into his soul as he nods rapidly.

“have you ever seen moana?”

there’s a beat of silence.

“no”

another beat of silence.

“WHAT” you basically yell, the cafe now directing its attention to your table.

renjun begins to cave into himself like an armadillo.

“it just never seemed like my kinda thing” you stare at him. rethinking life, love, happiness. how can one go without watching moana? is he happy with his life? there’s no way. he couldn't be. he hasn't seen moana. probably why he acted like an ass.

“do you have plans later?” you ask.

“no, why?” he asks back.

“get your stuff we are going to your dorm and watching moana now.” you declare, already getting your stuff together.

“wait i haven’t cleaned” he says, trying to catch up with you, “i don't care and neither does moana, speed it up.”

you leave the cafe with a mission and renjun leaves beyond bewildered.

MUSE TO MUSE - moana crisis

previous - masterlist - next

summary; in which the art and photography departments pair up students for a collaborative project, & you get renjun. the prompt: earth's beauty. with differing opinions on how to do the project, will you & renjun be able to work together & get a good grade?

notes; sorry this took so long i just got back from beach vacay, safe to say i am way more freckled than i was before

1610 miles with a girl whos js inlove with the beach and the ocean

— OCEAN GIRL

— pairing: 1610!miles x ocean loving!black!fem!reader

— genre: fluff

— summary: what it's like for 1610 Miles to date a girl with a love for the beach and the ocean.

— a/n: im always gonna make miles 1610 silly ! when i tell y'all im deadly afraid of the water so i had to think AS HARD AS I COULDDDD to make these hcs, i hope i did this justice !! ty for the request, and enjoy ‹3

MILES + YOU = beach dates.

you two will go to beach and have a picnic, and he prepares it so sweetly for you ‹3

something like this !!

he knows how much you love the ocean, so he makes it special for you ‹3

he paints the rocks and gives them to you.

like when i say you have a collection of sea rocks with random things Miles has painted, you have a collection.

your favorite is the one that has two spiders with yours and his initials on it.

you two also collect shells, one time, you and Miles found a whole bunch, and made a necklace out of them.

"These seashells are so pretty, right Miles?" "Yeah, but what are we gonna do with em?" "..Oh! Wanna make 'em into necklaces?" "Oh yeah, I know how to do that!" "Really?" "..Nah." "You're so silly. C'mon, I'll show you."

He loves to take so many pictures of you in the water with his polaroid camera.

He'll take like four, then use them as reference so he can draw you - you're practically his muse.

After he's drawn them, he'll show them to you and let you keep the pictures.

You two watch Moana together. I dont care.

He calls you "Mi serenita", which means "my mermaid" in spanish

It's corny, yes, but it's so cute ‹3

Speaking of mermaids, the two of you most definitely paid tickets to watch the new little mermaid. twice.

"Miles! Can we go watch the new lil' mermaid?" "Wait, did we not already watch it?" "We did- but i wanna watch it again! Pleeaasee" "Of course."

snow cones!

He's always the first to get brain freeze because he eats them too quick.

Thankfully, he has spidey sense so he doesn't get stung by a jellyfish or pinched by a crab.

Because if he didn't? Pray for him.

You can't surf, but he can, and he'll never act serious when he does. He acts like a surfer boy on purpose.

"Cowabunga!" "Love, please, never say that again." "Nah, but did you see the way I rode that wave? That was gnarly!" "Miles, I love you, and it was, but you is not a surfer boy."

A lot of the times, you'll stay at the beach till sunset so you two can be alone.

SUNSET KISSESSSSS ‹3

Hey, Disney... didn't you once come up with new ideas?

[labselkie]

speedrunning through sickness to get this out because im petty and want to beat anyone posting her x moana fics. Just because. Go look at the art book the bird was supposed to be in the show (source: trust)

“What a… Curious little lady.” Matangi mused as she took a step closer to the unconscious beast below her. Both women were only illuminated by a faint beam of moonlight through the ceiling, and even with the low light, the girl was glaringly pale- Almost sickly. Matangi would be worried for her health if it weren’t for the way her arms faded into wings just above her elbows. That was far more concerning.

Dozens, if not hundreds of fruit bats hung from the stone ceilings, a majority of them watching the odd meeting unfold. Quiet chirps echo through the clam’s main chamber. Matangi was usually just thrown scraps by Nalo, kept on the precipice of life and death, a miserable existence even for a demigoddess. If it weren’t for her flying friends, the loneliness would be the worst part, but it still got to her.

“Must’ve been caught in a storm,” She says to no one in particular before crouching down over the bird girl. She reaches out, lifting one of the feathers out at arm’s reach. Her gaze sharpens and her hand drifts further up the other woman’s arm. A bat squeaks in the distance, and they begin flapping their wings in waves. Matangi shoots up and spins around to see a dozen of them crowded around something small and white on the floor. She rushes over in a puff of dark mist, appearing right beside the small, wounded bird. Crouching down to lift it, her expression of indifferent curiosity twists with a hint of empathy. Her thumbs gingerly brush across its neck, its heart hammering in her palms. At least it’s alive.

“This one too?” One of the bats nods in response. “What a shame.”

There’s a gasp behind her, a sharp sound that’s shortly followed by coughing. Matangi is there in a flash, quite literally, and a few of the flying foxes tail behind her. She hands off the bird into the wings of Peka and two of the other bats who cradle it like one of their own. The bird girl writhes on the floor, and she rolls onto her stomach before finally letting her eyes open. Her chest heaves with each regained breath, and she holds herself up by her thickly feathered forearms. Matangi steps closer to lean right over her, the goddess’s head tilted with a smile on her face.

“Good morning!” Matangi exclaims just as the creature catches sight of her dress beside her. The girl shrieks, scrambling some but just falling flat on her face, causing the goddess to wince playfully. Unfortunately, her left shoulder seems to be injured as she groans when it touches the ground, something that actually worries Matangi. Her nervous sound causes many of the bats to awaken, a few dozen of them fluttering from their resting place and flying in a daunting circle above the women.

“Lemme guess, you were gliding to an island and got swept up by a big, scary storm,” Matangi’s voice is brimming with excitement, she’s a women who’s been trapped alone after all. The bird girl rolls back to her side and moves to sit up. A clawed hand pushes her curly hair back, revealing bright gold eyes and a round face. Their eye contact is met with an unnerving smile from the demigod. “I’ll take that as a yes.”

The creature is pulled out of her deer-like trance by a fruit bat swooping down to inspect her hair. She squeaks and shuffles to finally stand, her own dress sweeping the sandy floor. “What the- What was that?! Who even are you?” Her panicked questions are just met with a chuckle, but she has no time to dwell on that as she glances up to see the flock of bats above her. With her back turned, Matangi appears right behind her, hands just about to grab her wings.

“I run the place,” She draws out her words, a fruitless effort to keep another laugh out. Her hands falter, though… This is the first other being that she’s seen in centuries, other than Nalo and a few of his minions, that is. She wants to tease her, but she wants to make this last. So, in another burst of smoke, she appears in front of the bird girl with her hands clasped. “And who are you to show up unannounced?”

The other woman jumps at the magic, and many of the feathers on her arms bristle with fear. Her nose is strangely dark, like the material of a true bird’s beak, a few feathers are even hidden within her curls. Matangi is notably taller than her, but it’s not a surprise.

“Neresi, my name is Neresi,” She gets quieter for just a moment. When she looks up, a majority of the bats are back in their resting places.

“How cute!” When Neresi looks back, Matangi finally strikes, sort of. Her hands fly out to the bird’s arms, holding right where white feathers begin to grow over pale skin. There’s a faint flush on Neresi’s face, the slight pink looking almost alien against her pale skin. She’s not hiding that easily. Matangi pulls Neresi closer, grinning like a madwoman. “So, was I right? Were you caught in a storm?”

“Yes, I think- But I don’t see how that’s important!” Neresi’s last word is accented with a squeak as she’s spun around by Matangi. The goddess points over her shoulder, down to the fruit bats on the ground. The tern they held has slowly woken up, but it clearly isn’t doing well.

“That’s why.” Matangi releases Neresi to reach down for the bird, and her face twists with the faintest hint of pity at the sight of their reconnection. The tern chirps quietly when lifted by her, finally shifting slightly.

“Oh, no, no, no-“ She knows it’s alive, she can feel its small heartbeat, but she’s still petrified. Neresi glances back to the goddess over her shoulder, nervously weighing the idea of trusting her. Another peep from the bird solidifies her choice. “Did you see any more?” She asks suddenly.

Matangi’s eyes widened for a moment, she clearly expected fear or defiance, not that. She simply shrugs, “None in here, no.”

Neresi seems to deflate, a weak sigh escaping her as she holds the bird closer. She can only hope the rest are safe. Keeping her head low as Matangi tries to sneak to her left side, she barks out a command right when the taller woman tries to speak. “I answered your question, now answer mine.”

“And that was?” Matangi leans in a bit, relishing in her new guest’s spirit.

Neresi scowls; she’s hurt, she’s tired, and she’s only putting up with Matangi because she spared her. “Your name.”

The goddess hums and leans back, pretending to muse over what she forgot as she crosses her arms. “Matangi.” She looks down with a sharp smile, her full hair falling over her shoulder. Neresi’s expression softens, but she’s quick to put her defenses back up when Matangi shifts back to her sly excitement. “So, Kurangaituku? Right? I thought you all stayed on your islands.”

The bird girl freezes, no one ever knew the name of her kind. She wasn’t entirely one, but rather a demigod, one of about a dozen. Stepping off with a pout, she nods, but even then her path is blocked by the flying foxes who held her bird friend.

“You can’t get out by foot, hon,” Matangi follows behind her, her face unreadable. Neresi couldn’t fly out either, but she’d save that news for later. The bats take off, circling her like crows as they try to get close to the small tern. “And your shoulder, must’ve been quite the fall.”

“I’m fine,” Neresi’s response is sharp, but she’s a horrible liar. “I just… I’ll just find somewhere to sit-“ She stops walking for a moment, letting the bats around her disperse, “Away from them.”

“What about me?” Matangi teases, stepping around Neresi with a smile back on her face. She walks backwards for a few steps, her cape opening more when she gestures to herself.

Neresi tries to stay quiet, her focus on the bird in her hands and the sprawling cave before her. She can’t deny how she feels, though. There’s someone stuck here with her, that someone is as pretty as she is interesting, and that someone hasn’t tried to kill her. Her standards were low, but that was common for anything inhuman.

“You… You’re fine. You can stay.”

I will write more for them buuuuut i just like writing first meetings for my ships, and if anything further writing will just be exploring their dynamic :3

They get. 500 years together before the events of the movie.
