#lmk your thoughts guys! im willing to discuss!

[your-local-uwu-artist]

okay so i got another video essay idea BUT I SWEAR T H I S TIME i think ill manage to complete the script (yes thats what i say everyt ime fnsdjkafl) anyway

if youd like to hear more its under the cut (kirby related btw uwu)

warning its all very ramble-y

setting the bar low and keeping the tone more so to just discussing something i like so i dont get to ambitious with the analysis

so a while back i read this awesome poggers fanfic called "being a knight is easy (and so is pretending to be one) by @/azzie-tangerine

its REALLY GOOD

and ive already had plans for a potential series discussing completed novel length fanfics so it could be snazzy!!

most notably though sense its written work thatll help me to not go crazy ambitous with the anaylsis: i ussually just have SO many thoughts that its hard to write down, so im hoping that covering a written work instead of something with a visual element, will help my thoughts to be more manageable sense like, i dont have as many of those entire essays over itty bitty details stuck in my head sense i dont have as much of a grasp on the itty bitty details of the written word

like bassically, because im less savy with written work my brain wont go so absolutely primal artist instinct mode feral lmaofnsdjkalfhdsk

anyway, ill want to go over all the art and fanart the author has done and recieved and maaaaybe if i gain the confidence see if i could talk to/interview the author?? (i had the confidence to compliment them on anon but that was it nfdskja )

gsoh this post is so un structured

uuhhhh heres a link to the fic

Being a Knight is Easy! (So is Pretending to Be One) - Chapter 1 - Azzie_Tangerine - Kirby (Video Games) [Archive of Our Own]

if you read it: it would be super helpful to me if you could maybe lmk your thoughts and takeaways on it? or wanna talk about it with me more

its nice to have other peoples thoughts to bounce off of when writing a review/video essay/anaylsysis/random guy on the internet goes feral over kirby characters having emotions video

so anywayyy snfskjdfk ummm if anybody would have any video edting software recs that would be GREAT too~ (as well as its nice to know who would be willing to proof read my scripts)

okie so

currently i guess my "to do list" for starting up this idea is to reread the fic wile writing notes along the way: and joting down comments and quotes

during that ill also work on organzing my thoughts into topics/categories

i dont want to worry to much about structure, art, and the such until i have more work to show

anyhow! while im chaotically chatting i might as well kirby animation update too!!!

im having a hard time deciding where to start with the lines: at first i was gonna do a non anti-aliasing basic brush so itd be easy to color but i really wanted a bit more texture so im currently trying to get all the backgrounds lineart with that: in which ill than go along with the character animation and color whenever its most convenient too~

and sense i can heres another wip!

a bit of a pause on this piece: ima try to find some lineless scenery speedpaints to give me more of an idea of how to go about with this

[noukeeeh]

aight so, I will try to do a little breakdown of the lyrics of better and what vibes they give off/ what they make me think of (warning: I’m on crack and a ziam stan)

Hope I only leave good vibes on your living room floor    ---what have you been doing on this floor Zayn? also- strong beginning and could be a reference to bedroom floor :0. But this has a soft i miss u vibe.

It hurts so bad that I didn't when you asked for more ----> Ok so this is an interesting line, what was it “you” wanted that z didn’t? a relationship? a marriage? a baby? coming out? or is it not about their relationships but another thing in life? I’m leaving this up in the air.

Your dad probably loves me more than he ever did now  

This line begs the question: What time is the stage for this song? are these current problems for Zayn or is this about old times? and why the love of the dad?

'Cause I finally got out  -what is it that zayn got out of? One Direction??? Why would this dad be happy about that?

Yeah, we finally knocked down --- interesting use of we especially taking into account that Z&G didn’t hang out while Z was part of 1D? so why would Z leaving 1D make her dad happier and would change something for their relationship? unless........

'Cause sometimes it's better that way Gotta let it go so your heart don't break 'Cause I love you Yeah, baby, I love you  Ok so I’m taking these together, taking into account that ‘got out’ means leaving 1D, why does this sound like an explanation for doing that or like breaking up? ‘it’s better that way, gotta let it go’ this sounds like a sorry i left the band i had to do it for our relationship, esp with the LOUD i love you, why would he say that to gigi? anyways....

Just this one time, hear what I'm tryna say Know you might not feel quite the same way But I love you I tell you, I love you 

Here’s where it gets kinda sad, i guess the “you” was mad and the relationship hit a rough patch where Z has to reassure them he is still in love with them, as a follow up to the leaving thing, again with the LOUD i love you.....

Why? Why wait to fight? Give it a try

Or I'll say goodbye while it's right

Ok so this makes me cry man, the way he’s begging the ‘you’ to not give up on them and to fight..... damn, then also, could there possibly be a double meaning to fight? I mean yeah the fight for their relationship, but maybe,,, also the fight for freedom? idk im just sayin......

Can we save tears in your eyes? I'm making you cry Why wait to hate, can we save love?

whoop the sadness is increasing damn, this also feels like a horrible hopeless situation you know, when no matter how hard you try you won’t get everything you want. What i don’t get is the use of wait. why would the “you” wait and what are they waiting for then? could it b waiting till they’re free? idk my guys but it sure as hell is painful.

I fell in, I'm falling, I'm for you I can't let you fall through the floor too It's a gamble to take any more of you (It's a gamble to take-take more you)

Here’s where it seems like Zayn has given up on their relationship to protect the “you” but does confirm that he still is head over heels for the other person also, note the reference to falling often used in Icarus Falls (I don’t mind falling, if it means I get to fly again) But also! the FOR YOU reference hmm. But anyways, these lines seem to be about zayn not wanting to destroy his lover with his love, poetic.

Still in my mind sometimes, I must admit it Like it's a crime on trial, I got acquitted Me and you wasn't meant, we wasn't fitted Like it's a glove, I hated to admit it

Ok so according to a contributor on genius this is a reference to the OJ simpson trial in which the gloves didn’t fit. This part throws me on a loop because on one hand he’s still thinking about “it” which is most likely their failed relationship. But then he says he was acquitted or his crime, which means found not guilty, so is that about the relationship not failing after all or about it not being his fault the relationship failed? I’m guessing the latter because after that he says the gloves didn’t fit, it just wasn’t meant to be, which is, whew, painful. Interesting notion: do the gloves not fitting mean OJ didn’t do it? No, actually many people still believe he got away with it, so, did Z and “you” actually not fit or was that what they were told?

'Cause obviously, we go back So why would we ruin that?

First i was like wtf does this mean but babes!! this is literally the plot of a friends to lovers au??? we go back: we’ve known eachother for a long time before that, we shouldn’t ruin that friendship by taking a chance at love wowie. Anyways Itunes Vegas 2012 vibes......

In too deep, we're rearranged Now you wanna ask for names

Oh no they’re in too deep now and their friendship has changed and their relationship has rearranged! And the other person wants to give it a name? call it a relationship? :0 damn

We can't let this fruit go bad Sayin' things we can't take back In too deep, we're rearranged Say you feel the same

How loud does he need to be!!!!! anyways please say you want us to be more than friends too, our friendship will be ruined anyway.

Why? Why wait to fight? Give it a try Or I'll say goodbye while it's right Can we save tears in your eyes? I'm watching you cry Why wait to hate, can we save love?

Ok so I already went over this chorus, the only notable change is from making to watching you cry, which idk what that signifies but its notable.

All in all. Zayns new single is a heartbroken one which contains a couple messages but i guess mostly doubts about  his relationship and whether the other person wants to fight for it, with a couple references to the past. Interesting is that, while he explains they probably weren’t meant to be in the first place, or were told they weren’t meant to be, he still follows that verse up with a love confession where he begs them to say they feel the same? plus the loud I love you’s don’t really make this a break-up song.

Now this begs the question... wHy would he release this desperate song when he JUST had a baby? Isn’t he supposed to be at his happiest right now? Also zigi started dating quite as fast as they met so,,,,,, this is not about them........

Conclusion: This is a ziam song sorry not sorry guys
