...oh HELL are you getting me to watch another show? (You know that's a compliment, right?)

Also? Wow. I had no idea I'd like Nathan and Duke that much -0 lovely expressive faces and reactions. Really, though, that just left me smiling at the screen and going, "Oh, look, a canon threesome!"

{{hugs}} Thank you, that's a great vid!

::laughing:: I've watched a lot of your vids for fandoms I'm not in, dear! And yeah, that *so* looks like a canon threesome to me! Okay. Merewyn's been trying to get me to watch it but you know, visuals just kinda *work*!

Love Will Conquer All does sound like my kind of thing, so I'll check it out. Thanks!

{{hugs}} Sorry, had to reword the comment because I looked at it and thought, "You know, that's easily misinterpreted -- must FIX."

This is really great! I love how you really see the push-pull-push of Nathan and Duke's interactions--and how you don't stint on Audrey's importance in their world, and her place in the larger Haven universe. It works really well as a story.

omgggg KILLA IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL *watches it over and over with hearts in my eyes* Nathan! <3 <3 <3

I am a bit disappointed though you cut away from the scene at 1:20 where Duke and Nathan got into that fight before they ended up on the floor kissing furiously. /refuses to believe this did not actually happen :>

This is absolutely gorgeous, and I love your choices in showing the two of them, as well as Audrey and the town.

This is great! Downside: sudden powerful urge to rewatch the entire series rather than, say, going to work or sleeping. /o\

Oh, that was very sweet! I particularly loved the end, with Nathan's digging alone transformed into digging with Duke. And nice use of Audrey (my heart is with them as OT3).

THANK YOU so much for making this vid! (And for letting me see it!!!) I can't seem to stop watching it. I put it on my phone so I can watch it on the train in to work. I suppose I need my daily helping of OH NATHAN ♥________♥ .

It feels spot-on, the narrative you build about Nathan trying so hard to build/maintain a shell, and Duke constantly poking, prying, getting in under it. (Ell said something like, Duke is the grit that gets into Nathan's shell and creates a pearl?) The build to the end shot (and the use of that scene earlier right before "You opened up the door") is a perfect encapsulation of that--Nathan alone, pushing down his sorrow and suffering (one might even say digging a deep hole to bury it in?)...and despite everything, after all of their charged push-and-pull and ups and downs, there's Duke again, there's Duke still.

And Audrey's placement and role feel perfect, too. I can never get enough of her face, when she looks through the window and sees Duke helping Nathan up. Sigh! Audrey, call me, we can go out and drink dirty martinis.

In short: I LOVE THIS VID. And I thank you for vidding it. And OH NATHAN.

And here we have... Duke/Nathan in a nutshell... and with Audrey approbation \o/
I'm always wary about feedback on videos because I know zero about vidding, but you know what? I know what I like, and this? This I love it! This gives me feelings. So many that my cats are playing with the ones pouring from me...
I just... love it, okay? ♥

This is brilliant - I like how you rationalized in Audrey's behavior so it made sense without just brushing her off! Pinboarded and rec'ed.

I don't really know how to give good feedback on vids but this was just fabulous. I adore Haven, adore Duke/Nathan & Audrey or OT3, and this just perfectly captures the show and what I love about those three characters. Bautifuly matching of song to characer and action. Thank you for making it!

OMG! I have no idea what Haven is, or who these people are, but this vid was so stunning! And there were so many times when I was SURE they were about to kiss!

Oh man. I'm so in love with this vid, but every time I watch it, my entire brain keeps screaming, "OKAY KISS NOW. NOW WOULD BE A REALLY APPROPRIATE TIME TO KISS. SERIOUSLY, GET WITH THAT LIPLOCKING ACTION." And then it's so distressingly confusing when it doesn't happen...
