I don’t think Xie Lian ever really got the chance to feel human. When he was born he was the center of the world, and since he was young he wanted to be a god. There was nothing he couldn’t do and nobody who didn’t love him, he had massive privilege and he knew it, and at the time, he really genuinely thought he was omnipotent. His mind skipped mortality and went straight to expecting godhood. But even when this period of his life is over, what comes next is isolation. Now, he’s someone without heavenly appeal but with knowledge and experiences much beyond the understanding of mortals. He lives among them, takes the same jobs, eats the same food, has the same needs, he can try to help them, he can try to love them as he always has, but there’s still something that’s just not quite the same. He may understand their plight after living through poverty, but he’s never truly been the common person he’s always wished to save. He can’t grow old, he can’t die, nothing can kill him, his existence is something so beyond humanity but still so far from the god he dreamed of being. And so, he berates himself whenever he has strong emotions or slips up a little or says something kind of weird or misses little details, becuase he still sees himself as not quite human enough to make those kinds of completely normal mistakes. He pushes people away before he has the chance to hurt them, before they have the chance to learn to hate him. So when Hua Cheng finally comes into the picture, he’s trying to say it’s okay to be human, Xie Lian. It’s okay to want to save yourself too.

OK!
Here’s my most recent project. My husband, David, goes by @digitalsodamusic and this is his music. I created the video with my own animation couple with some video-editing.
David’s music is instrumental, and digitally produced with Ableton and other song apps. Some of it may remind you of movie soundtracks… It’s a wild mix of orchestral or symphonic music, ballads, heavy metal, “elite” elevator music (one of his friends coined that phrase lol), house music, and sometimes it’s ambient music… There are several amusing themes, and some of the music sounds like a movie soundtrack. Many of the songs could be played while doing tasks, or to meditate. It’s quite eclectic!
DistroKid distributes David’s tunes over a wide array of apps such as Apple and Google Music, YouTube, Deezer, Spotify, Amazon, Tidal, Veco, Boomplay, and TikTok, to name a few. He pays $22.99 for a year, but there are several different packages offered. DistroKid keeps none of the income: it all goes to the musician.
I usually use FlipAClip to create the videos. It’s a simple enough program for me. I find animation, art, and photo/video editing much easier on FlipAClip. It’s a great for animation, videos, or even just drawing art. Sometimes I need more audio control so I may have to use Splice. Splice also has free sound effects, music, and provides several more fonts than FlipAClip. There are also some extra effects and filters on Splice that aren’t on FlipAClip.
In February 2024 I started making this video on FlipAClip, and finished it at the very beginning of August 2024. That’s 2283 single panels! 😮💨
If you read the description on the YouTube post, you can find out more information. You will find all the people credited for the cat content I edited! There are a lot, and some I can’t seem to find. So if someone else finds them, I’d love to know so I can update the description.
❤️ Please Subscribe and Share! The song is “Alley Kat.” Enjoy! ❤️
Also I don’t know who I should tag anymore, but I’ll try some of my old buddies before I fell off of social media for about 3 years… @satanskatse (❤️who is a lovely individual, btw, got me through a rough patch❤️)
