hi guys

so it looks like the few pro shot tourdust shows that were on jack edinger's vimeo are now unfortunately deleted/priv'd, along with all the other fob related vids that were on his profile - thankfully i was able to pull most? of them beforehand, so here are links to download them in full:

bristow, va (19 july 2023)

london night 1 (02 nov 2023)

london night 2 (03 nov 2023)

other videos

an addendum: i'm missing i think 2 videos that were up on his page, iirc they were titled something like "hold me tight or dont content" and "centuries content" - when i watched a little bit of the hmtod one it looked kinda like a lot of stock clips literally with watermarks and everything stitched together(?) like at a concepts stage.. ?? and unfortunately i didn't watch the centuries version.. but ig assumed it was similar? 😓

basically i considered them low priority to download at the time and now i'm kicking myself. lol. lmao even. so if anyone managed to get those pls feel free to sound off

otherwise take everything above and enjoy !!!

Did did did did did did you see the apple core backstory

I was so excited I got here as fast as I could

IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A JOKE

oh my god. at least it wasn't an actual, literal apple core. but they really did give us a whole lengthy explanation about the ✨meaning of the apple core✨, didn't they. (though to be fair, it also came along with Jade being a weird little mofo, so I count it as a win.)

PLAY THE UPDATE HERE:

[thequeervampiric]

forgive me if I'm wrong, as I've never been in a similar situation or especially familiar with one, but I like how...realistic Rancilda and Putrice's relationship to Ella feels.

at one time, Rancilda and Putrice feel like Ella is just another sister to them. they complain about her just like they complain about each other, even that Ella gets things and special treatment that they don't. but she's very much the scapegoat. any "special treatment" the troll sisters feel like Ella gets, it's just to keep her in line and afraid, or to keep up appearances.

but their mother feels superior to Ella and broadcasts that sentiment, so Rancilda and Putrice feel the same way, even though they don't entirely understand the reasoning for it. they're young in comparison to, the gods know how old the Stepmother is. they're impulsive, and easily distractable, and want their mother's love and approval. they only know what she teaches them.

they treat Ella like a pest to be tolerated and killed at their whim, and, well...to them, that's basically what she is. at the same time as being like another sibling, because they feel like their lives aren't fair and they're competing against her for that fair treatment and their mother's attention.

but it isn't at the sisters' whim that Ella is killed, it's the mother's, which, in the sisters' eyes, is more unfairness to them. Putrice whines, "can't we just kill her?" when Ella says something completely innocuous that upsets them, like a child might complain that their sibling won't share their game, can't their mom just make their sibling share?

this really got away from me and is more of a stream of consciousness about the sisters' relationship with Ella at this point, but basically, yeah. "she's our sister and the most abused and terribly treated by the family but c'mon, she's getting something nice for a single day and we're not? that's not fair!"

i didnt read the last chapters since i discovered it was the end (but i was spoiled by tumblr lol)... i didnt want to believe it... i want to still look forward to new chapters of No Home :(

For the last few years eunyung and haejoon have been my companions. I healed a little while following the story of eunyung, feeling like its ok to be angry and wanting revenge on your family and the society that continues to want to keep you in a "house" where you are mistreated. How the world isnt made for children at all, the absolute unfairness of it all. That you can choose to keep going, and if you do so its ok to keep your distance with what hurts you.

I healed too with haejoon, who came to terms with the fact that he will always be overcome with sadness and grief from time to time, and when that happens he can only let himself feel and wait for it to pass, and try to look forward to the next day.

Honestly this manwha was the best ever. I couldnt read this manhwa as a form of escapism because it was too real. It pulled strings in my heart i didnt know i had, made me question a lot of things about myself, about others, about my relationship with others. It made me have painful discussion with a few people. Following this manhwa, most of the time, was really unpleasant lol. I hated then loved eunyoung, I liked and then disliked haejoon (yeah sorry haejoon, i think you can be really cruel and stupid and i wanted to strangle you a few times in the last arcs (i would NOT be friend with that guy lol) -thats why this character is so amazing). But i felt so much while reading it i wouldnt trade it for anything. It was funny, it was dumb, it was deep, it was enraging and healing, but most of all it was sincere. The most sincere depiction of what being a person in a deeply flawed society is, and how there's happiness even while surviving.

It was so frustrating to see the manhwa go in a direction i didnt want it to go ! I wanted it to become my cozy refuge, where every problems are magically solved, where haejoon and eunyung ends up understanding and loving each other in a cliché way, where theres a new home with my *fave charas* and its a series of feel-good interactions. Instead the problems kept pilling up, most of them didnt have a satisfactory conclusion, eunyung and haejoon kept hurting each other and distancing themselves. Haejoon just cut contact with his father without knowing what were his nefarious motives or without this guy facing any consequences, we dont know if eunyung's parents will keep bothering eunyung unchecked, we dont know if they're going to be happy and rich, or if, realistically, as orphans without generational wealth and deep traumas, they're going to end up in a shitty life situation.

And i couldnt thank wanan enough for this. They didnt take the easy way, the feel-good way, the way that would have given them a probably bigger fandom so a bigger source of money. I'm amazed by how they managed to hold this whole story so perfectly. Not a single misstep. Everything they draw was where it should have been, every action from the characters were understandable (and frustrating lol), the fucking subtlety of the developing relationships, no deus ex machina and no miserabilism. I didnt always agree with wanan's ethic or what i perceived of it (i think stealing or being violent is ok depending on the context, i dont think working hard to earn money is a virtue) but i respect how they choose to present it. I didnt talk about the other characters because honestly they didnt move me as much (except marie), but i love them so much too. I felt sad that eunyung and haejoon didnt become best friend 5ever (or even lovers hehe) but honestly, understandable lol. If i was one of them i WOULDNT become close with the other at all, so its kinda amazing they could still find this level of mutual understanding.

In short, wanan is an amazing story teller.

And an amazing image-composist (have no idea how to say this in english). The artstyle doesnt look like much, but this gave wanan a wide graphic range to convey emotions that wouldnt have been possible with a more sophisticated style i think -how will i forget the red swirlings mixing with eunyung skin ? The expressions, the choice of colors, the choice in showing something in particular without giving a clear explanation on why (often haejoon's surprised or contemplative face, which made me re-read chapters a few times to try to understand what was happening in his big head). It didnt feel like wanan thought their readers were stupid, nor did they play the fake-deep style. It was perfectly balanced.

And so even if i didnt read it, i have no doubt the end will be the same. Im so sad they decided to end this manhwa, but i know prolonging it would have been greedy and that ultimately, the manhwa would have suffer for it. Some authors do that : they have a popular series going on, and for whatever reason they keep writing new chapters without a clear goal and so the story becomes diluted, messy, useless. I love when they do this, because i can say goodbye to a story progressively as my interest in it wans, without feeling sadness or loss. But it makes me not think of the story at all in the future, since everything that was good about it became buried in new shitty chapters. Because wanan didnt do that, i know that i would think of no home for a long while, maybe forever,

,like i really lost companions when no home ended actually. Because it really, really hurts, knowing i wont be seeing new faces of the no home characters anymore. I know it sounds probably stupid ; i feel genuine grief here lol. I want to know what will happen to them, if they are alright, if they found a place in the world... if there is something to look forward after all, and i really dread not having answers every monday anymore. and the fandom is so small i cant comfort myself by re-entering the no home world every week or whatever... does anyone else feel this way ToT ? maybe i should participate myself but well,, i wouldnt know where to begin...

And saying that ! I'm almost never on this blog, i dont really have socmed accounts, i dont participate in fandoms at all. But I spent a looot of time reading and watching people who does -without being connected or interacting with posts or fanfics at all. AND i really want to thank you all for giving me so much material to chew, posts that made me think, fics that made me smile, drawings that inspired me, witnessing interactions that made me laugh. I was and i probably will continue to be a ghost on socmed, but i really want you to know that you had an impact on me and i was looking forward to your new posts (and will continue to!).
