It's like they've embraced themselves truly and wholeheartedly, and accept that at times they are utterly toxic when pretending to be something they're not- pretending that they're not destructive and a little violent. They accept that together they are both at their best and at their worst with each other. And they don't mind- because the highest highs together are worth the lows. "I will ruin you." Ruin their reputation with others, ruin them socially. But they're never ruined to the other, because they're both equals. Yang and Yin, perfect balance. And although perfect balance is often seen as a good thing, it's the centre of chaos, Pandemonium even. This is why I love the two of them as a team they're so good to watch and analyse!

Even if unfinished i still got so so so hyped when they were singing "iiiiii will ruin you" and you show grian and then scar's perspective and and "i am not a vessel for your good intent" as Scar lights a match is SO GOOD and and and the dancing while their outfits change to represent each season !!!!! Amazing !!!!!!!!! It really encapsulates their chaos, mischief, and despite hurting each other they're still linked together

Okay but "let's have the ghosts count us in then" is the most METAL line I never caught until this video. Like taking last life out of the minecraft context, two partners win the viscious game of death they were thrown into, and now stand upon the ruins of the home they built together, the last two alive in their entire world. And they have the ghosts of the slain who gather around them chanting for death count down to their final battle. Like HOW WERE ANY OF US SUPPOSED TO BE NORMAL ABOUT THIS.

god this is SO good. I love the song choice, always appreciate mutually toxic relationship desert duo. Also Grian as a little pixie is amazing I love that choice for him. Good way to keep the wings while putting a unique spin on him.

I love the fact in the thumbnail grian is holding a match and scar the dynamite. On their own, they can be quite harmless. Hell, the match is useful, even. But because theyre paired together they become nothing but destructive to each other and everyone around them. LONG TANGENT COMING IN The match, once lit, will burn out, and grian as the match who lights scar's tnt is so good because yeah he's helping scar but it will burn him out in the end. He'll flicker out and he'll do it quick. Scar as tnt is self explanatory, once tnt explodes it leaves destruction in its wake and it dies (dissapears, gets used) with it. Grian is helping scar, but the way hes doing it (lighting scar's tnt with his match) means in the end all it will do is kill scar and everything and everyone around them. Theyre mutually horrible for each other and simply the act of pairing up has caused them both mutually assured destruction, and theyre not just fine with that, theyre _happy_ with that. I adore that.

GOD I'M LOSING MY MIND OVER THIS. THEY'RE UNHEALTHY AND THEY'RE GONNA KILL EACH OTHER BUT THEY CAN'T HELP BEING TOGETHER I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS THE SYMBOLISM THE ANIMATION AAAAA

I've probably watched this over 30 times and I only just now realized that Grian didn't wear a poncho at first, but started wearing one when he and Scar moved to the desert

It's interesting to examine how the meaning of the song changes when you view it as a duet instead of a solo

their expressions when Grian is pledging his loyalty at the beginning is GOLD. Grians expression is a mix of guilt and reluctance to serve scar and scars expression is just concern about what Grian’s doing because Scar held no genuine ill will towards grian for getting him killed. SO. GOOD.

Even in the unfinished state, this animatic is so good!! I love the storyboard and the way you linked the entire Life Series and their dance at the end-- aghhhh

Dangg I love how you've presented Grian and Scar in this animatic - they're just chaotic and super fun :)

I haven’t seen anyone else talk about this but I love the detail that scar got his scars from grain blowing him up. I really love that detail

This song fits so well! The Crane Wives must be confused by the explosion of views thanks to all these ___ life animatics

Time to be REALLY NORMAL about this animation and point out all these small details I LOVE. 1:13 WOW Scar lost a lot of lives in Last Life and I love how you showed the ones he gave away 1:16 LOVE Mumbo's design and salesman Scar 1:55 I've said it before but I love the hesitancy and resignation on Scar's face agreeing to the contracts (or is it when they are all red and taking his stuff lol) 2:00 I can't explain it but the part of this song fits the mood of DL Desert Duo perfectly 2:06 THE JELLIES also Scar's face LMAO 2:10 "Uh Scar? I have a FEELING..." 2:13 perfectly captured the water bucket clutch heck yeah 2:16 Love the frames for the slight voice crack in the singing Love that Grian's version of "ruining" Scar was getting him killed in 3rd life and Scar's version of "ruining" Grian is thinking he'd be happier without him 3:07 this dance lives in my head rent free - THE FACT THAT THEY CHANGE OUTFITS MIDWAY THROUGH. It's like them embracing the bond they once had when they get down to their last life in Double Life and ugh its so good. 3:14 so tender sob also the little Grian dot eyes when he's picked up. Adorable. 3:20 MINE 3:25 Salute to the RelationShip buring 3:27 literally just 3 frames but it tells the whole story of the end of the Secret Soulmates so well. It's Grian and Scar back together as strong as ever, Grian overjoyed by the stalactite kill and Scar wide-eyed realizing Grian just killed BigB. Can you tell I'm a little obsessed with this animatic?

Everyone talking about the dance and they’re right but also Scar’s “I am fine with that” at 1:55 is so good. Just two frames but I can FEEL him speaking that line. The intensity and resignation.

This is SO INCREDIBLE??? THE BEGINNING, THE DANCE SCENE, THE WAY YOU PORTRAYED GRIAN AND SCAR AS CHAOTIC AND HAPPY CHARACTERS. ITS SO GOOD FOR A UNFINISHED THING.

Even the creeper is beautiful wtff - The instrumental parts where it shows all their deaths is so cool !! i giggled at 1:13 with the sheer amount of lives scar had lmaoo i didnt even realize how many he gave away. - At 0:19 and 0:23 grians wings are cut off :( - Already said the designs but Mumbo!!! Just Mumbos design alone is sooo cute - Scars smile at 0:57 - Joel at 1:14 lmaooo - 1:43 this part is so yummy to watch - 2:06 THE JELLIES YIPPEE - Scars waterbucket clutch!!! Also Ranchers appearance!! - 2:42 the match setting on fire??? as an artist the way the flames are drawn jsut akdhnskhdjs - 2:50 appreciating Scars beauty here. Just look at him - We can all agree the dancing through the seasons is amazing and also my favorite part overalll +anyways this is one of the few videos that whenever is shows up in my reccommended i watch it a few more times its just so addicting :)

I LOVE THISSS AND WHEN SCAR SPINS HIM AROUND AND PICKS HIM UP?? OMG so cute and SO WELL DONE

Everyone does these so amazingly, I love animatics like this. They always do the ones where Grian is so exasperated with Scar that sometimes I forget that Grian is just as much of a chaos goblin as Scar is, but this perfectly portrays that they're both just chaotic goblins together and I live for this.

I have no clue how an unfinished animation is underrated?! This is so beautiful and very well done. Regardless of not being done, it's a masterpiece

Even though it isn't finished, to this day this is one of my favorite animatics ever. Just everything about it. The expressiveness of it all, the art style, the music is so fitting! Just a masterpiece!

this comment has been itching at me for a while. okay, so despite it being unfinished for a year, i just KEEP coming BACK. 47 times in total, i counted. thanks youtube. it is just so so SO beautiful! desert duo are my absolute favourites and this animatic just seriously makes me love them even more. the emotion being conveyed in each frame, even if a face may be no where to be found is just extremely powerful and some frames even made me feel sick to my stomach. especially when grian smirks holding up the bundle of tnt, thats terrifying. the dance at the end is also outstanding, mostly because of how happy they seem. it has a little hint of somberness to it if you squint really hard. this animatic is ALSO the reason i am super obsessed with crane wives right now, tongues and teeth being my super duper favourite. after listening to metal and rock for years, indie folk has just awakened something inside of me. one thing that is also VERY intriguing is probably the scene of the pre-chorus, "and i know that you mean so well, but i am not a vessel for your good intent" fits them awfully well. scar's switch-up in emotion also had me all like "woooahh!!" because it was portrayed just so well!! this same technique is also used in the scene of the chorus, "i will only break your pretty things, i will only wring you dry of everything" where it is sung with joy?! how i saw this was that the two had accepted their destructive nature and come to peace with it. wow. not to mention, the use of grian's actual line in the intro was also very smart, genius might I say. you are just SO talented and amazing in ways i cannot describe. this animatic QUITE LITERALLY has me in a chokehold!!! i understand why you made the decision not to finish it as it looks quite complicated and even tiring. i've never done animation, so im not well versed but i can tell that it is not light work. especially with this amount of detail. long story short, holy crap i am in love with this animation and i need it injected in my brain so bad i could write an essay about it. lots of love and take care of yourself, cherri!!! i love your stuff but i also love the idea of you NOT being burnt-out and tired. remember to stay hydrated, eat properly and TAKE BREAKS!! love you, bye!! 💝💝 /p

LYRICS TO THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG AND ANIMATIC Grian: Scar, I think that no matter what happens, we can claim this as a double victory, right? Scar: Yes, I- we are- we're good. We're good. Grian: Alright, let's let the ghosts count us in then. -SONG STARTS - I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel It's all that I can give to you, my dear And when you come in quick to steal a kiss My teeth will only cut your lips, my dear And I know that you mean so well But I am not a vessel for your good intent I will only break your pretty things I will only wring you dry of everything And if you're fine with that You can be mine like that Abandon all your stupid dreams About the girl I could have been, my dear 'Cause in the night I know you burn with feelings I cannot return, my dear Oh, my dear You gotta know that this won't last Desperation will erase the fact I'm keeping all Of the answers in my cigarette box Yeah, the answer's in the second before the other shoe drops And if you're blind to that I am fine with that Oh, I will ruin you Oh, I will ruin you all It's a habit, I can't help it I know that you mean so well But I am not a vessel for your good intent I will only break your pretty things I will only wring you dry of everything But if you're fine with that If you're fine with that I will poison all your happy thoughts I will love you like the ashes in my cigarette box And if you're fine with that You can be mine If you're fine with that You can be mine, oh

I love how about 30% of this video just has them with evil little expressions

I keep rewatching this because its just so damn good I love your art style and all the movement feels so nice aughh I love it

Grian in your style is so scrunkly I love it so much and I especially love the little dance around 3:00! The dynamic and the clothes is so well done!

I'm so ill about this.

The motions and body language in this are so good! I don’t even watch Grian and Scar but I got such a good feeling for their competitive chaotic energy, and how they stuck with each other even if that joy turned to mutual anger, they found a way to stay besties.

I love how into the crane wives this side of mcyt is

I just registered that in the dance scene, they are switching between different lives im going to be SICK (I've watching this animatic several times like every day now for a week)

grian and scar are both chaos incarnate, grian has slightly more control over his intrusive thoughts but scar USES them with zero inhibition. i love them as a duo

I like how Grian's clothes change in the middle of their little dance :D

This is such a masterpiece, the designs are so excellent, the faces and the way people move are so expressive even with only linework, and THE DANCE AT THE END HELLO???! your work is so incredible it's inspired me creatively, thank you

I have watched this over and over so many times and its so good! I absolutely love this whole animatic! I am also stuck listening to the song over and over again-

i love rewatching this and catching little details i missed like how their hair grows longer through each season and how i can kind of cross reference which scenes are inspired by which events/interactions bc obv the fandom likes to spruce original clips up with drama and headcanons. i cant get enough of crane wives x desert duo

I LOVE HOW YOU IMPLEMENTED TONGUES AND TEETH INTO THIS THIS IS UTTERLY FANTASTIC

returning for the thousandth time to watch this, its in my head constantly I think I would genuinely go insane without this animatic you have no idea this thing is ON LOOP some days

Dude this was just beautiful. You're already going crazy with full color in the beginning, but then that ending dance scene flowing SO WELL? Just- chef's kiss, my friend. Well done

this is so good you've genuinely made me go and watch all 4 seasons one after the other to get all the references. I've been at this since 2 pm and it's currently after 11. All this to say: absolutely incredible animatic

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ANIMATION AND IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT!! you are so talented i loved every single second of it, even if not 100% done it still got the message through and OH MY GOD THEIR DANCE AT THE END

Ok ok beautiful art BUT MY BRAIN CANNOT STOP SCREAMING ABOUT GRIAN WITH BUG WINGS I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

I didn't fully understand Desert Duo before this video. I get it now.

oh.. my.. GOODNESS i've watched this too many times to keep track, and it NEVER GETS OLD!! i love all the small details (grian's sharp teeth are so cute AAA) the framework is incredible!! although unfinished, i can tell you put so much work into making this, and it's incredible!! the life series is an indefinite one anyway, and with the start of the new season, this animatic is such a treat!! their declining interactions within the series is shown so well. even as scar and grian realise that they're drifting apart, the way you've managed to convey the softness of their gazes before they started to "challenge" each other for what they would do if they were together was so satisfying!! i think i speak for all of us when i say the dance scene was amazing. WELL!! that's a few minutes of my life I won't get back.. totally worth it though!! literally love this animatic sm

I feel like i'm having a fever dream, because i could've SWORN that I had previously seen THIS animatic in THIS art style, but there was a segment of Scar during "I'm keeping all of the answers in my cigarette box" where it's Scar engulfed in flames with an absolutely feral look on his face as though he just conquered the world
