for Instrumental challenge at multividious
I owe biggest thanks and cookies to my lovely betas: ewczos, for teaching me some very helpful tricks and mresundance for an amazing eye for detail, enormous patience (as he was forced to watch me destroy many parts of this vid by excessive nervous tweaking only to restore them to previous shape afterwards), boundless enthusiasm AND making this shiny vid graphic above for me! Jesse, you're a star.

notes: I have about two tonnes of vidder's notes on this little thing, but I'll let you all have a chance at your own interpretation. It's a very simple concept, after all, even if better people wrote ginormous theses or shot grandest movie trilogies about it. My aim was basically to make you smile, then cry and then laugh; but I'll take any emotions Return manages to squeeze from you, in any configuration. Concrit is also always welcome, as is long winded, veering off topic meta discussion
