aww, nikki loved this! like i said on vimeo; the aaron scenes at the end were so cute I loved the darkness at the start tho; especially sawyer waking up to the empty bed and kate in the bath. creepy scenes of her and wayne tho *shudders* but it worked with the vid i love the audio. "I ain't gonna hold it against you freckles', really worked so well in this vid! and you used some beat use in there; woo!! another awesome AU!! _________________

Yeah I was proud of my little beat use scene in there! LOL I don't use beat use much so I get all excited when I get something work out, b/c its so hard for me for some reason. Thanks for mentioning that Sawyer line in the bar. It was one of my favs. _________________

Aw I really enjoyed that. The scenes played out perfectly for the story Sawyer and Kate married with a baby made me smile. I really liked the start aswell with the audio sounded like Kate. _________________

Oooh Nikki this was so awesomeee! It was very deep and emotional and you really went to the extreme with this vid which was totally cool, you took a challenge. I liked all of your audio manips--my favorite was "he used to get drunk and hurt me" and Sawyer telling Kate he would keep her safe, aww I love Skate Awesome job _________________ Jin is lost in Sunlation forever..

Aw, Nikki, I really liked this! One of your best vids, I think. I LOVED how Sawyer was being so sweet and protective. The end was cute - it made me smile and giggle. XD All the audio was really good. I particularly liked when Sawyer told her not to beat herself up, it was sweet. Awesome vid! _________________

That was so cute!! (In a way! lol) The beginning was so powerful, with the voiceover aswell. And I liked the continuing theme of her "beating herself up" - Like, when Sawyer told her not to, and then a bit later on, she said that she wasn't. That was cool. And it kinda showed how she was messed up by her past experiences and couldn't sort out how the felt about it all. The whole story was just really moving and powerful. This is one of my new faves of yours! |

Aww, great vid, Nikki! I've missed your Skate AUs. Sawyer was so sweet, I loved it! I liked the part about playing house, and then they got married, yay! Great job! _________________

Nik, You already know how I feel about this vid, but I wanted to share with everyone...I LOVED it. Not a Skate fan, but learning...only cause you're such a great teacher! Vid wise...I love the audio at the beginning, and the opening images are so powerful...not just the graphic scenes. One of the most heartbreaking scenes are Kate in the bathtub...she just looks so small. I DID love protective Sawyer, my fave is when Sawyer took her in his arms when she was crying. And YAY! A happy ending! Love it! <3 <3 |
