Ezra! ♥ I really liked this.

[arduinna]

Aw! I really liked the progression in this, how he moves from being alone to becoming part of the team, and his friendship with Nathan <3 I love how the team has always been what he was looking for, but how in the end it's not just the team, but the individuals in it, that give Ezra what he needs. And how the more involved in the team he is, the more centered and happy and confident he gets. <3

Yes! The show does such a great job of creating those moments of both one-on-one and team camaraderie. This is especially important for Ezra, who really needs those personal touchstones to provide his moral compass.

Awesome comment. Thanks so much!!

Yay, I'm glad! Thank you. :D

[talitha78]

Awww! Poor, angsty Ezra! I loved the horses coming over the hill and all of those great all-7-in-profile shots.

You have a lovely Ezra and Nathan vibe going in this. The whole thing's wonderful - I love all the movement, it's so nice to see Ez in action.

They're pretty much my Mag7 OTP. :D

Thanks very much! There was some great action stuff; I'm glad I got a chance to use it.

I don't know this show at all, but I watched based on recs from SD Wolfpup and Killa and really enjoyed it -- the story of a lonely, lost guy finding first a friend and then a team was really easy to follow, even for a source newbie. :)

Oh, thank you! I'm glad to know that the narrative was that clear. :D

Wow - wonderful! Great song, excellent scenes to complement the lyrics, great message! You could do the same with any of the other six as the focus, too - lovely! Thanks so much for sharing!

[talitha78]

Thank you very much!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the song and the vid. :DD

[ghost_lingering]

Oh this was wonderful! I've never seen the show, but this makes me want to watch it, post-haste!

[talitha78]

Thank you!! It's a very fun show; I heartily recommend it. :)

Terrific vid! It's a great exploration of Ezra and his desire to be accepted! You did a tremedous job picking the clips to go with the song; I especially loved the Maude and abuse part. Just the right amount of angst and action here. I just loved it! Hope you keep vidding Mag 7. Thank you so much for sharing this!

[talitha78]

Thanks so much for replying to both posts! I'm love getting two comments for the price of one vid. ;)

I especially loved the Maude and abuse part

Thank you for letting me know that section worked for you. I'm sure it made no sense for people who don't know the show and don't realize the context for that kiss, but I was definitely relying on fans to get it.

[sfulton229]

The timing was perfect and you are right about it being a nice bit for the fans.
