For Forever | Passerine sbi animatic 

WILBUR HAS HIS HAIR BRAIDED AT THE END JUST LIKE TOMMY DID A A A A

NO BC I'M STILL NOT OVER PASSERINE AND THIS IS INCREDIBLE

I am still in the five stages of grief because of passerine and this made me reach stage four: depression. But in a good way! I never cry, but passerine pushed me over the edge and this animatic just managed to digg up all those emotions I felt when reading it. HUZZAH I AM CRYING AGAIN

I'M LEGIT CONVINCED THAT THE ONLY REASON THIS AMAZING ANIMATIC DOESNT HAVE A MILLION MORE COMMENTS AND LIKES IS BC THE RU-vid ALGORITHIM IS TERRIFIED OF ITS POWER. THIS IS LEGIT ONE OF MY FAVORITE PASSERINE ANIMATICS EVER NOW (especially bc i used to be sooo obsessed with the dear evan hansen soundtrack and still burst into tears five seconds into "requiem") AND NOW IM JUST SITTING HER SHELLSHOCKED

“Thank you,” Tommy breathed. “Thank you. I…” He had so much left to say, so much left to offer. Love. Forgiveness. Cheer. But he would leave it there, until he woke up again. Tommy’s eyes drifted shut. His mother’s laughter had never sounded clearer. -Passerine chapter 4

amazing song choice. going in, I had no clue whether or not it would work well with passerine, but rather than trying to connect the animatic directly to the lyrics, like some animatics do, you told the story you were trying to tell with for forever as a backdrop. you illustrated the song's feelings instead of its words. the wistful nostalgia of the first part, the rising swell of longing for something better, and then the ultimate plummeting sensation of losing everything, or realizing that everything was never there in the first place. it made this animatic feel less like a video, and more like an experience. I've listened to this song so many times that I didn't think it could make me cry anymore, but here I am, with tears in my eyes. this is one of those animatics that I'm sure I'll be frequently revisiting. thank you for this.

"Techno tied his hair back in a simple knot; there would be no intericate braids for a while, no flowers heavy with meaning"

I am astonished at the writers ability to describe Technos sister in Passerine that we all unanimously, subconciously and accidently agreed upon her look.

Goddamnit, I DID NOT WANT TO CRY FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

Fun fact: I saw a tree today that looked exactly like the one where Tommy's grave is in this animatic, and when I say exactly, is exactly- I'm going to leave a yellow flower there someday :) The animatic is amazing and so cool btw, I love it!

AM I ACTUALLY CRYING OVER AN ANIMATIC? YES. IS THIS THE TIME I CRIED OVER A FANFIC? YES. DO I HAVE REGRETS WATCHING THIS? *NO.* THIS IS BEAUTIFUL, I REALLY CANT STOP CRYING, JESUS-

I was surprised to see a passerine animatic using 'For forever', and i'm just so blown away by how you used the lyrics to tell the story! It was so beautiful and moving and i love it :'^) Edit: hello, i keep coming back to watch this it's soooo good 😢

Techno at the end taking the flower from his ear, showing his now mortal form, but also showing Tommy's grave was such a clever movement

You formatted these scenes tooo well to this song had me sobbing like when “take in the view” had phil looking at his two peaceful happy sons??? When “they’ve come to get me” was Tommy’s family rushing to him after he was fatally injured??? When Ben platt holds “this way” and it’s Wilbur, singing, and it just fits so well to the voice and u wonder if he’s been narrating this whole time? and the “two friends” being Wilbur and techno and paralleling the first verse with Wilbur and tommy???? Anyways my heart strings have been sufficiently tugged

a year later, this still makes me cry

My favorite fanfiction + my favorite song from DEH? I AM BROKEN /pos The way you portray the scenes like Wilbur cradling baby Tommy or them dancing or the whole bit after the "happy ending" And the transitions!! The yellow rose petal, the morning glory in Techno's hair, the tears from Wilbur to Tommy WHY IS THIS WEEK SO SAD /pos

HI THIS IS FANTASTIC BUT ALSO NOT OK, I'M IN PAIN. The amount of detail put in is stunning and I've rewatched like 3 times looking at every moment you added

A description of Passerine: Passerine, the sleepy bois ink fanfiction that can make any mcyt fan ball their eyes out.

I can proudly say that I did *not* cry- I didn't- really-

If i had a penny for every time i've cried to this, i'd be a billionaire. This is an absolute masterpiece. :)

the last scene of technoblade almost got sobbing

This makes me cry every time I watch it, and even more so after techno's death, 2 days ago. I am going to dieeee right now😭

the "tommys from every universe" at 4:02 KILLED ME. IT WAS THE FINAL WOUND

I am not one to feel sadness over animatics,but this? This made me feel more things than SADISTS did. This is one of the most emotional pieces of art I’ve seen. This is amazing,please,never stop.

only pain, i have already finished the fic months ago in april, but still only pain, beautiful pain

Rewatching, I’ve noticed more and more details that I didn’t notice before. And the ending with Tommy, Phil and Kristen just broke me

Sometimes I wonder how I haven't run out of tears due to the amount of how hard I just cried to this animation and many others

I mentally crying and Im in school, still not over the book. Its bigger than a NOVEL! And it shook a whole fandom too, like, wow what has the power to do that besides the creators themselves? You know its a good fanfiction when there are multiple animatics on it. Right now I can't find any with my favourite parts of the book in it but who cares? I can't draw but I can always imagine. It's up to the artists what they animate and draw.

HOLY MUFFINS THIS IS INCREDIBLE?? I WENT THROUGH SO MANY EMOTIONS?? THE SCENES YOU PAIRED THE MUSIC WITH WERE JUST PERFECT OH MY GOD AND THE DETAILS FROM SOME OF THE SCENES I- AND THE DIFFERENT SHADES (is that what you call it) OF THE BACKGROUND FOR THE DIFFERENT MOODS AND- JHASFHSAKJ I JUST LOVE IT SM emotions were felt, 15/10, would watch again

This is INCREDIBLE! You packed so many details and moments into this I’m just blown away!!!

I think the most heart wrenching thing about Passerine is that it captures grief so vividly that you can't help but feel their pain. It hurts worse for those of us who have lost someone, because it's like we are grieving along side them. You're not okay, but you will be. I'm not okay, but I will be. One day. I'll live life to the fullest for my grandpa. Make him proud of me, before I join him.

The part of passerine with every au of Tommy made me cry so hard. Just those last few chapters really got me

It’s been 7 months since I was last here and- I still tear up when I watch this. Passerine truly broke my heart and this animatic brings all the pain back in the most beautiful way

m8 I ain’t getting over how flipping underrated and talented you are

IM IN SHAMBLES THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL UEUEUE

I came back to this after technos passing and I still love it ❤️👍

The emotional pain never stops with Passerine! This is gorgeous and I am Sad!!! I wish I could loop the section after "one foot after another" for like five hours that was so good!! And AHHHHHHH Oh geez the emotions are endless,,,,,,,,Phil and Tommy appearing at the other side of the tree????? My heart!

Im crying all over again this was AWESOME!!!!! My two weaknesses together 😭

I don't cry over alot But this- this masterpiece... *it makes me sob.*

THIS SHOULD BE IN A MUSEUM. EVAN HANSOM, THE ANIMATIC, THE STORY OF YOUR HARD WORK IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND IT BURNS. I AM CRYING. THANKYOU

Passerine was the first book to ever make me feel genuine grief and sadness for days after reading it. You drew this animatic so nicely, amazing song choice too.

Oh my gosh, the combo of DEH and Passerine! The art is amazing and just tugs at all my heart strings.

god damn it i knew what was going to happen but i watched it anyway and i used an entire box of tissues AND IM STILL CRYING SOMEONE I NEED MORE TISSUESSSS

It's been so long. Today this showed back up on my fyp. If only we knew back then. Rip techno. This is a very good animation.

I'm seeing it now after techno death and I'm so broken

THE WAY THEY USED THE WILLOW TREE ALMOST AS A PORTAL TO ANOTHER WORKD OR ANOTHER TIME GOT ME SO HARD DUDE IM CRYING

THE CHARACTER DESIGNS ARE AMAZING! I keep replaying the first sight of Phil and the close up on Technos face

I've watched this like four times now and *every. single. time.* the quote "Without requisite or deadline, I will love you" shows on the screen I start crying. It gets me every time.

not exaggerating, I got literal chills, and damn you lined the swell of the music up so well with the big moments, I think passerine scarred me for life

I was like “Oh, wonder what this Fanfic is about”, then I was like a minute in and I notice “OH WAIT I ALREADY READ IT” Wonderful animatic, good summary of the story while following the rytmic (idk if I write it right) of the song.

‘The only two titles that ever mattered to him. Brother and Son.’ I’m not crying-

Dude what the hell this is amazing! You had no right making me wanna cry when I just got over the story!

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO ADDED THE VERY ENDING WHEN PHIL LEAVES THANK YOU SO MUCH

2 years later and I still cry over this animatic

This was on my recommended page, and I’m commenting to boost algo’s rythm. I haven’t even finished passerine yet and I was crying😭

I dont think I'm ever getting to the stay of acceptance after reading this fan fiction and seeing this animatics. I never in a million years would have thought I'd cry and sob over a fan fiction and an animatic but here we are

I finished reading the fanfic at 4:30am to a beautiful sunrise. I watched this animatic the next day same time. I was not ready to cry first thing TWICE in the morning! It’s so perfect and beautiful, and you could not have captured everything better. ❤thank you for ruining my mornings in such a wonderful way!

A terribly depressing combination, DEH and Passerine. Amazing animatic, thanks for making me cry more :')

This actually made me cry, what the hell

You (creator) probably won't see this, but I had to get up, put my phone down, go into the bathroom to legitimately cry for the first time since the end of 2019...I have never wanted to switch places with someone at that moment of death, and the way he dropped and closed his eyes is what got me...the single tear that fell onto his dying face...the mess wilbur was in in the end, and the braid that wilbur had...im not lying when I say this and this isn't a joke..you have made me cry genuinely for the first time in a long time...thank you..

This is SO underrated! I LOVE THIS it’s soo adorable

You are so talented! I’m claiming the “Here before 500” ticket because you’re going places lol

I can't believe I cried to this at 2:00am, it's so beautiful!

NOT TECHNO FINDING HIS FIRST GREY HAIR HFJDJDK PLEASE IM SOBBING

Everytime i hear this song i think of this animatic. So here I am, 2 years later, still crying over Passerine instead of doing my homework.

Not gonna lie, the last part make me cry for half an hour, gorgeous work and beautiful song.

STOP BC THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON YOU NOR THIS STORY HAD TO HURT ME THIS DEEPLY

You've combined the musical that never fails to make me cry and the fanfic that never fails to make me cry As you can probably imagine, I have now dissolved into a pile of tears and ugly sobbing :,)

PLEASE - I am CRYING. I’m SOBBING- I almost managed to hold it in like a champ and then 4:30 happened and I just lost it- It’s a beautiful animatic though, I like how you used the lyrics as situational rather than trying to make it fit, and it was just… done so nicely. 😭

BRUH THIS NEEDS MORE HYPE RN

Sometimes i come back to this because its so beautiful and it reminds me of Techno. I finished reading Passerine the day his death was announced.

i cant believe the way you used both the song’s vibe, energy and flow to tell the story as well as the lyrics oh my god. like, the timing of the parts of the song combined with the part of the story you were telling???? and the way the lyrics coincide so much?? like the "he's coming to get me" from tommy to wilbur and the "two friends / true friends" with wil and techno oh my god im actually crying thank you so much for this

Omg this song fits Passerine so well! The sort of bittersweet ending of the song fits the entire fic perfectly! The song also never distracted me from the art. It all just blended together so well! One of my favorite fics and my favorite DEH song....... I am 100% NOT crying rn ahahaha

Oh my gods this was incredible. All of the little details throughout I absolutely loved. The frames such as when Techno saw the gray hair in the mirror seem so minor but make such a huge impact.

I've read Passerine like... A month ago. And this just came up in my recommended and sent me RIGHT BACK TO TEARS. Never would've guessed that For Forever would go SO WELL with Passerine and yet you connected them perfectly. Thank you for this beautifully sad experience.

I'M ACTUALLY IN TEARS!!!!!! I didn't know the characters prior, but I got invested. The animation was Amazing!!! And the characters were brought to life! Why he have to die like that?!! For Forever is a great song

"A father's arms never forget the shape of a child"

I have watched this four of five times over and, it was only untill I red what it was baised on. Accually read the story that, I understood it. And now, it never fails to make me cry a little. Hell, when I first watched it AFTER reading the story I was just in tears like, legitimately SOBBING this is an amazing animation and I find it hard to believe it's already a year old :0

This had no right being this good. Passerine is one of my favorite fanfictions, and I have been loving all the animatics. I think the Passerine fic/anamatics are the only ones that have made me genuinely weep. They are so incredible. Thank you for contributing your talent!

GIRL I LITERALLY WENT THROUGH ALL FIVE STAGES OF GRIEF IN THE SPAN OF FIVE MINUTES THIS IS AMAZING IM CRYING

I’ve gotta say, I have watched this so many times I practically have it memorized. I watched it before reading passerine, but this is what drove me to read it, and it was the most amazing story. I sobbed reading it, and when I finished and came back to this animatic, I cried again. Truly an amazing animatic, thank you so much!💕

THIS IS SO GOOD IM CRYING AGAIN

This is AMAZING!!! Going in I wasnt really sure how you would use certain parts of the song but you used every bit perfectly! Visually its stunning as well, your style just adds to the beauty

If I could, this animatic would have 10M likes.

This made me SO SAD its unreal... the animatic was amazing, the story even more so.... thanks for making this from the bottom of my heart

Dude I got chills. Holy frack my heart can’t take this. I’m still not over this fic nooo.

AGHHHHH!!!! WHY THIS IS SOO GOOD!?? Every part of this was amazing. I don't understand how you broke down everything in the story and made an animatic that put even the littlest details and told the whole story. The song was a very good choice. The editing was also very amazing!! I like how you colored the tree, and the facial expressions were on point! I love the other animatics, and I don't want to judge them, but from all, I saw everyone just focused on Tommy dying. Like that was all the story about. But you literally showed that the story was not just about Tommy dying. The story was about how strong they love each other and how they have their backs. I litterly can not tell how much I loved this animatic. Good job :D That was amazing.

I’m sobbing my eyes out right now. This song is dear to my heart, and so when you put it with this amazing anamatic, it’s so hard to not cry

I’ve never been one to cry but this, this made me curl up in a ball

I sobbed uncontrollably over this ~ It’s beautiful and so well made 💛💛💛💛

I’m crying about this more than I did about “The Gates Of Hell” which is saying something. This is such a bittersweet animatic, fabulously done. I love it.

i’m literally gonna start sobbing THE PURE TALENT AND PERFECTION IN THIS VIDEO I- HOWWWW

THIS IS INCREDIBLE, THE WAY THE LYRICS FLOWED SO WELL ALONG WITH THE STORY AND HOW GOOD YOU MANAGE TO TELL THE WHOLE THING IS AMAZING

Omg, that’s amazing… like, really, when I was reading passerine, I imagined it with this song, and you did it perfectly like I imagined it, great job! ;3 Loved moments with Tommy, he looked like actual kid, as it should be ;c

THE GREY HAIR AT THE END ABSOLUTELY MADE THIS ANINATIC OH MY GOD I'M IN LOVE

Why why am I crying over this AHHHHHHH it's an animation about An AU about block men that fight AHHH-

You made me want to read passerine again, it's literally the best book I've ever readed

I absolutely love Passerine and it is the only book that has actually made me cry and the fact is that I didn’t put it down until I finished it. I loved how this animatic portrays every aspect of the book through the art and how the song links it all up creating such a great animatic. It really had everything that was in the story from the emotions from mumza’s death to Tommy’s breakdown with Wilbur and his death then liking up the war between all three against Dream and Techno’s history. This is definitely going into my favorites.

TOMMY DROPPED AND SO DID MY FREAKING HEART AAAAAAA this is so expressive and full of life. I keep finding passerine animatics that move me to tears more and more. i really loved this. gah now I'm crying again

Oml, this is CRUEL. It's too good in the saddest way. But then it's got some crazy pretty backgrounds too??
