    “Tremble for yourself, my man, you know you have seen this all before,” showing Magnus trying to understand the statue is. Emotional, to say the least. Not to mention “you’ll never settle your own scores,” showing Magnus forgetting about the governor who ruined his peaceful life.

    IM EMO HHHHH ;;
    this is literally one of the most beautiful taz animatics ive ever SEEN?? like it feels like a story slowly being unraveled with the lyrics being a cryptic poetic narration, nd the expert perspectives n how we sort of familiarize ourselves with the thb lives which makes their evolution so much more impactful Dx!!!
    all the little linear details of the story like sloane n hurley holding eachother in an embrace, angus, june and the cup, magnus with the picture of the red robe, fisher, wonderland just--- its so PERFECT!! ; A ;
    it makes the ones with dialogue attached so much more impactful especially in terms of composition?? LIKE, with davenports "Haven't we *earned* a little *WRATH*?" and "I'm.. I'M *DAVENPORT*!" and "Count the shells!" it just hits differently n theres like a beautiful dichotomy of all of these memories, good and bad, melded together ; m ;
    also the minimalist look makes the frames with shading have more emphasis like when taako is pointing his umbrella at lucretia,, and the lines and the intricate details for the clothing wrinkles and the aged lines on lucretias face?? the volume in hair???? ur literally God NEVER EVER doubt that this is beautiful!!!!!! im gonna be crying again hhhhHHVDUELUHBNWJDJW qmq...
    ps. i figured out it was from lucretias eyes thru comments and?? JEGUS THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE IMPACTFUL BRB SOBBING AGAIN : ' )!!!
