*bows down to your feet* You took my breath away. I love your James in this series, I really do and I think this piece is truly marvelous.

"Only Lord Beckett hurt him enough, punished him enough to wash the stains clean. With his hands white and soft as these petals he broke James slowly."

I am absolutely in love with this part. It's so DMC James, you can't see it on the surface, he seems hardened and callous but inside... And I really love this... thing... between James and Rose, especially here. "He would plant a love for her, foster it with gentle care. It would grow. It could consume him. He could find goodness, honor in that. She wouldn’t even have to love him back." Truly wonderful ending. You're made of awesome, you know that?

Squee! ::hug:: You give the best praise ever! I'm so glad you liked the ending, I was proud of that. And yes, James's relationship with Rose really can only be described as a "thing" can't it? Poor Jamie, he gets no love ::huggles::

I know. :( Poor darling Jamie. Oh I heard a song yesterday and it's so Jamie. I finally found the time to check out other songs by Poets of the Fall (because I juts adored the song you used). And when I heard "Where do we draw the line" I started crying because it reminded me so much of Jamie. *cuddles Jamie* and *hugs you* You're amazing, I'm just voicing it. :)

Do you not LOVE that song? OMG yes it is so Jamie! (I'm mking two new vids 4 him and Rose btw, oh and I got this great idea for an Elizabeth/James/Mary triangle vid too! what would you call that NorPowelliBeth?)

[sunsetdawn20]

OMG OMG, really????????? You want to use OUR Mary??? *cuddles* Oh God, that would be so awesome. *thinks* Bethwellton... lol I don't know... haha... oh you're awesome. :) Now I can confess, I'm planning a Rose/Cutler/James vid, haha, I just need time to make it. But in about 3 weeks I'm ready with my exams so yay!!! :) And of course I want to use that PotF song for an RP Jamie video. :):) Can't wait to see your vids. :)

Omg really??? You're making a vid to MY fic?? ::head explodes:: Omg I think that just made my whole week!!! I'm so glad there's somebody who loves OC vids as much as me because I just keep hearing songs and wanting to make them

[sunsetdawn20]

OC vids are the best. They never get boring. :):) Of course they are much harder but that's good, it's a challenge. You have no idea how bored I am with Sparrabeth, not to speak of Willabeth (though I have never been a fan of that). It's funny, though, the other night I had this need to make an easy video so I made a sort of Sparrabeth, non-con Barbossabeth video, I thought it was terrible but some people seem to like it. It took me about 3 hours, not more and it was about 1 in the morning when I started, so I wasn't really awake. That just shows that everyone can make a Sparrabeth vid, it's ridiculously easy. *shrugs*

And of course, it's called fan vid, right? I'm a fan of your fic. :) Actually I'm planning to re-read all of it once I'm ready with my exams. And I have an awesome song for that video. I won't tell you, though. It's a surprise. It's bad enough I told you about the vid itself. And of course I still need to get hold of Bands of New York... lol

Do you want me to file transfer it to you, just to make things easier?
I find myself slowly being itched by the Barbossabeth ship, it never made a whle lot of sense to me but the more I watch the films the more I see evidence for it. (Although it could just be that I think Lizzie's a slut and can see her with nearly everyone except like...Gibbs.)
It's funny, I actually think Sparrabeth is hard to do. I made one and it took like forever. I think it's just because I don't know the footage as well as Norribeth and I don't really care enough to practice with it

[sunsetdawn20]

Movie!Lizzie is a slut, I always hated her. But now that I write her, I'm getting really fond of her. I hope my Elizabeth is better than the movie one. (Actually I once saw a rather good Liz/Gibbs vid lol) And for me Sparrabeth is very easy because when I started making PotC videos I started with Sparrabeth, I think I made some 20 vids for them or so. Rather successfully I might add, on my other channel. What makes it easy is that they have many scenes together, which you can't say for Beckington for example. You have to find other scenes to create the atmosphere that they are together. I just love to do that. :) This is the most fun in making OC videos. Especially Lizatrick for me (Liz and Patrick, my OC, played by Alex O'Loughlin) because I mostly use Moonlight clips, which is a modern day vampire series. So... you know I can only use like 5% of the clips. lol But I enjoy that a lot. :)

And thanks so much, but first I'll try to find the movie, I'm sure it won't be that difficult. This is a good excuse to actually watch it. :)
