AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

How did you even find this song??? It is PERFECT for Clint and Kate. This whole thing is honestly spectacular. I don't even know what to say (but I will say more when it's not 7am, because I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this vid). Thank you so much!!!

Oh this was excellent!! <3

[thuviaptarth]

This captures Kate and Clint's relationship SO WELL.

[thirdblindmouse]

This is the ultimate feel good vid. It tells its story crystal clearly, and makes me remember how much I loved the art of those comics. :,)

[raine]

Great song choice and mix of clips!

[kiki_miserychic]

YESSSSSSS such a good vid that captures a lot of the original source. Great use of framing. 💜💜💜💜💜

[streussal]

Oh man I usually have trouble with still image source vids but I was totally engaged with this! Great work.

[sasha_feather]

YESSSS this is amazing! I love everything about it and have a huge grin on my face!! Go Hawkeyes!!!

[sol_se]

THIS IS AMAZING!!! Aaaaaaaaaaah I love it!!

[eruthros]

This is so great!

[talumin]

OH WOW!

Perfect vid for the Hawkeyes.

[amathela]

OMG this was soooo amazing! I love the song choice, I love the editing, I love these two idiots and THIS VID <3 <3 <3

[par_avion]

This made me so happy. I've wanted a vid for the Fraction / Aja Hawkeye to exist but could never come up with a song. (I'm gonna fight for this four square feet!) This was really amazing. Loved the use of the finger-spelled WTF as well as the ending Thank-you, Hawkeye(s).

Loved the inclusion of Bobbi, Black Widow on "best people I know" as well as the members of the roof-top family cook-out.

The editing from 1:10 - 1:15 of Kate driing to LA was really beautiful.

Kind of a hard day, today, IRL but this left me feeling hopeful. Thank-you Hawkeyes. Thank you, anon.

[trelkez]

this is so great!! well timed, repeatedly punched me in the feels, and just all-around great use of static comics source.

[fairestcat]

Oh, wow. That is so perfect.

[rhoboat]

Okay, wow. So this is just THE BEST. *applauds madly*

[moyix]

This vid makes me feel: Clint + Kate + Pizza Dog <3

[cupidsbow]

Fantastic! I love how you've used panelling in this.

[valoise]

And that, boys and girls, is how you vid to a still source! The song, the choice of panels, the movement all blend together perfectly. Makes me want to dig through my very small collection of graphic novels and comics and give it a try.

[purplefringe]

Oh WOW. Wow wow wow. This is AMAZING. It's so powerful! I have goosebumps! What incredible use of the source - it's so dynamic and well-edited, you forget it's a still source. SO GOOD.

[milly]

Yesssss. We subscribed to this because Ollie got really into Hawkeye afer the first Avengers movie, but I'm the one that ended up reading it. I loved it and this is so very perfect.

[seekingferret]

This is great!

[aurumcalendula]

I love this! (and I need to go read this)

[lilly_the_kid]

This is so amazing!!! The song is perfect and I love everything about this. Great editing, great pacing and I love the sign language parts! Brilliant work!!

[bingeling]

This is holy heck awesome! I super loved it.

[garrideb]

I love this vid! I'm a huge fan of the song, and of this run on Hawkeye, and you did such an awesome job of blending the two into an energetic, cohesive celebration of bruised-and-battered hope and determination.

I think my favorite part is Hawkeye standing in front of his building with his bow drawn. Perfect match of lyrics!

[anoel]

This was so awesome and beautifully done! I really love the use of panels and parallels.

[stellastars]

Really impressive vidding of a still source. I've lost count of how many times I've watched this vid in the past three days... but every time I see it, it still fills me with glee! (The inclusion of sign language especially made me happy.) Great song choice, great clip choices... in short: a perfect vid. ♥

[jesse_the_k]

Delightful! Great pacing/editing. Lots of fun!

[bluemeridian]

This is SUPERB. Great song choice and beautifully done!!!

[actiaslunaris]

Your editing is fantastic, but the heartfelt message of hope that you make clear with it is what will stay with me.

[sinensis]

Great song choice, great use of the visual source. Loved it.

[felis]

Awesome! I didn't know the comic but this was totally engaging and so well done, every panel comes across as spot-on in placement and dynamic. I loved the patience for the slow panning shot early on, culminating in "mean old son of a bitch", that's when you had me on board for sure. Great vid.

[kore]

This is AMAZING. Fraction got me back into comics, and this is so beautifully done and the song is perfect.

[jetpack_monkey]

Man, I can't think of another song that would be more on point than this one. So good. Great editing and use of static source.

[danegen]

I love this so much, bro. So. Much.

[sanguinity]

<3 <3 <3

[thingswithwings]

Loved this!!! Glorious sense of movement, and you make me feel for these two Hawkeyes all over again. Beautiful!

[gwyn]

This was fantastic, I really enjoyed this! Fantastic "clip" choices all around, especially ending on the WTF.

[metatxt]

WOW THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! The flip-book style editing paired with the more rough-edge illustration style is so gritty but emotionally squishy? I don't really know how to describe it.. it's like I want to put on a leather jacket to brace myself for getting hit in the feels when I watch it all over again! The pacing across the repeated images or contrasting images, creating suspense or revelation, it's just gorgeous. Such a beautiful vid!

[bessyboo]

I cannot get over how perfect literally everything about this vid is. I've already watched it like four times. Seriously, all the kudos forever.

[such_heights]

This is fantastic! Really captures the feel of this run. <3
