summary: I leaned on you today (and I have promises to keep)
content notes: Spoilers for the whole first series
notes: Made from scratch in a 48-hour burst of sleep-deprived creativity, in order to be finished in time for such_heights's birthday yesterday. ♥ Thank you for getting me to overcome my initial scepticism and finally watch this stupid show about stupid people with stupid faces and their stupid (beautiful, complex) relationship. I may have some Thoughts about them at some point, but right now everything I have to say is in the vid.

Lyrics

I leaned on you today
I regularly hurt but never say
I nearly wore the window through
Where was air sea rescue?
The cavalry with tea and sympathy
You were there
Puncture repair

I leaned on you today
I regularly hurt but never say
You patched me up and sent me on my way
I leaned on you today

Gahhhh this is as lovely and wonderful as I expected when I saw you'd made an Elementary vid! I love love love your use of inanimate objects to convey meaning, set mood, and as symbols. Wonderful vid! And 48 hours -- I'm so impressed!!

Omg, I'm never making a vid in 48 hours again. I am SO SLOW at clipping and everything, it usually takes me ages...but this was in the name of my favourite person's birthday, so had to be done :-) (would have been easier if I'd thought of the idea sooner, but shhhhh)

Thank you thank you thank you for your lovely comment :-) I'm really glad you enjoyed the symbols and objects...this whole vid is a bit different from how I normally make things, I think, and I'm pleased you felt it worked.
