I watched the mid-season finale today especially so I could watch this vid. I'm feeling all the feels! It's so nice to have warm fuzzy pack-feels after the angst and tension of the last few episodes. Nice vidding, lady!

[heidi8]

Oh my gosh, thank you! I wanted to do a vid to this song for at least the last four weeks but the eps were so angsty and stressful I wasn't sure if it would get to the point where I could, and then it ended with such a lovely combination of darkness and hope that I actually could!

SO glad you enjoyed it.

(Wow, I have been on LJ so infrequently that I really need some TW icons. And to find a comm or two to post this to. Know any good iconmakers?)

[brighteyed_jill]

Yes, I love it when there's hope! This show hits all my angst needs, but sometimes I just want these characters to get a chance to be happy, y'know?!

I've been scouring wolficons for my icon needs, and have found some lovely ones. So many pretty choices. I also raided teenwolf-daily's watch list to figure out which communities to post fic to, since apparently Teen Wolf fanfic is a thing that I can't prevent myself from writing. Not sorry. Anyway, I bet you could find good comms to post the vid to! To which to post the vid?... For to post vids to... For vid-posting purposes... You know what I mean.

OMG are you writing TW fics? And if so are you posting on AO3? Because I am sure that anything you have written is something I need to read.

In restrospect - and I did a lot of retrospecting while editing this vid! - this season had a wonderful balance of angst and hope - I mean, even Derek seemed to end the season with some hope or at least progress. And in a 12-episode arc, that's just a lovely thing to enjoy.

[brighteyed_jill]

In fact, I just posted my first TW story on AO3. My main problem is that I love all the characters so much I can't commit to one pairing or idea!

The season has had a pretty good balance, hasn't it? There was a lot of suspense and tension that went all the way through, but then you had wonderful moments of love and camaraderie, too. And yes, even Sourwolf himself was kind of smiling there at the end. Hope is a beautiful thing!

Oooh, going to read that as soon as I finish a response to Opposing Counsel. My life is occasionally confusing.

BUT! Thanks for the links before! I now have TW icons, but not the one I want most because I can't find one of Stiles with the bottle of Jack from Lunatic. Me and my Booze icon collection.

[heidi8]

Oh, wait! I found a screencap with the bottle, and iconed it (mediocrely) myself. Whew! Collection is now viable.

[brighteyed_jill]

Yes to booze icons! I also enjoy this gif of the scene.

And, ha, I think I might write some more angsty Isaac tonight after I revise my syllabus for the semester. It's this kind of juxtaposition that just makes me smile.
