it's been awhile since I've worked on this project! I've had this verse finished for months but didn't want to post it on its own, and instead wait until the whole thing is strung together to show the final result all at once. But I'm tired of holding onto it, so here is one section of my deltarune animation! My art tag has other clips if anyone is interested in seeing more~
*grabbing you by the shoulders, staring into your eyes with a manic expression*
Listen. Listen. All I want in this world, the thing that would justify our species' wretched existence, is for Vienna Teng and Hozier to cover each other's entire discographies
Khun Nueng, you make my heart ache. You’ve been so sad. You had to leave your family to be true to yourself. Still, you couldn’t be happy. You lost a sister. You lost your grandmother. You’d “settled into the glass half empty,” as Vienna Teng would say.
And then there was this annoying young woman who promised she would love you. That she would be worthy of your love.
Over time, she proves you right. No matter what you do, no matter what the world throws at her, she loves you. And against reason, against your very beliefs, you love her, too.
Oh, but everything is stacked against your love! She’s so young. How long until she discovers that other people can offer her things you cannot? And then there’s her family. They are holding you up as a role model for her. They would never accept your love.
So what do you do? You kiss, you smile, you cry. You ponder and you doubt. You make love. You can’t go forward, but it’s impossible to go back. You cannot, will not, allow yourself to hope that, after the storm, she’ll still keep her promise. When the first gusts of wind reach you, you give up. It’s for her, you tell yourself. But if you’d be honest, it’s because you’re scared witless.
Oh my sad, little one. You’re going to be okay. She’ll help you realise that you are the only thing that is really holding you back. You will find your happiness, so close to where you started. And I will shed tear after tear watching you.
Teaholding is a veinna teng song. Timsasha is a tally hall song. Anything with daisy is is a willwood song. Lonely eyes is either will wood or lemon demon depending on there marital status. Do you smell what im cooking here
