[CC] Girl Crush [Cinderpelt/Sandstorm PMV]

[@ursiday]

I'm so shook how did you capture these vibes and Cinderpelt's feelings so well and you even made her LOOK exactly like a closeted baby lesbian somehow. I feel seen. Impeccable

how does one look like a closeted baby lesbian

[@crimsondrawz8653]

I love how you made Sandstorm look like some sort of popular, always-gets-the-guys type of she-cat. It just adds to the story. And also the end, I can imagine Yellowfang being a mom and comforting Cinderplet over Fireheart. Beautiful use of art storytelling!

[@fabplays6559]

Over Fireheart? o: In this PMV, Cinderpelt loves Sandstorm.

[@rottendog5774]

@@fabplays6559 In the description its said Yellowfang doesn't exactly draw up that conclusion :P

[@fabplays6559]

@@rottendog5774 "Though Yellowfang is there to comfort her, she's probably just assuming Cinderpelt still longs for the warriors' life, and even though it's more than that, Cinderpelt takes the comfort from her mentor."

[@weallstilldie]

I interpreted my first time watch this video without reading the description that Yellowfang knew what Cinderheart was feeling and she could relate to loving someone that she knew she couldn't have because she was a medicine cat also because she had competition (Foxheart) for the cat. Yellowfang also probably would've felt sympathy for Cinderpelt as well considering the pain Yellowfang had went through because she was a medicine cat. I'd much rather imagine that was how Yellowfang put together Cinderpelt's story.

[@c0okielava770]

ah yes my favorite character. cinderplet.

[@chervilfire3228]

We all can agree yellowfang is gonna be the cranky old lady who comforts Cinderpelt through everything and tells sandstorm that she better treat cinderpelt right 😤

I honestly adore the idea of this ship and dynamic. I adore Cinderpelt and the way she discovered her jealousy could be something more towards Sandstorm makes it even better. I love the art, so cozy and the lightings and just the way every character looks is amazing!

aw thanks!

I’m sorry but Firestar being drawn as short and floofball like his father is amazing

[@therealchris2142]

He looks like a ball cotton and I love it

[@EeveeFlipnoteStudios]

Hear me out, this song being "literally about about wanting both a man you can't have and the woman he's with" is a perfect fit, because CInderpelt thinks her jealousy towards Sandstorm is about Firestar. But actually, listen to those lyrics.... the layers.... she's actually yearning for Sandstorm but is so closeted she doesn't want to acknowledge it herself.

[@minimum3232]

I LOVE how diverse and unique your designs are! I've never thought of Sandstorm with long features, like her muzzle. but it just works so surprisingly well?? And Firestar's design is so cute and fluffy when usually he's drawn with short sleek hair but him being a big ball of fluff works so amazingly well. Idk how you pull it all off but it just works so naturally

​@@therealchris2142It's not that weird for a young kid to have a crush on an adult, especially someone important to them. What's important is that the adult doesn't like them back.

[@mercipurrs]

@@iclynnx thank you!! i know this was a year ago but its nice to finally see someone in fandom acknowledge that admiration crushes exist :)

I feel like Yellowfang would comfort her because she likes Bluestar which would be adorable

[@kkslays9920]

Why is this comment so underrated. this is adorable!

[@Stormwolf4]

We all know Fireheart would 100% support CinderpeltxSandstorm. He's just that kind of cat Really loved the slow, but very heartfelt feel this pmv gave! Really felt the pain Cinderpelt had in her heart, and just how much she really wanted to be with Sandstorm. The end bit is very nice with them giving a smile back at each other, and then having Yellowfang comfort her. Beautiful video that just really hits you in the feels. Also I just LOVE your Sandstorm design, it's just so different from most I see!

That Sandstorm design...! It's beautiful! Imagine how would be Squirrelflight and Leafpool. I'm not a fan of shipping, but your work is so calm, that I got along with SandXCinder. Also, yes, "taste her lips". The best way to express that the singer likes guys XD.

haha thank you!! sandstorm mohawk skipped a generation and jayfeather got it instead haha

Yes! I saw sandstorm and fell in love with her design. I never really liked her, personally, but goodness the design is so amazing and puts her in a light that makes her feel genuinely mature.

[@ѕнєу-е9ы]

[@ѕнєу-е9ы]

@@GeriStrawberry this ^^^

[@testerwulf3357]

i love the idea that it starts out wishing she was sandstorm so firestar would love her and she could be a warrior...but through the jealousy of how attractive sandstorm is she ends up falling in love with sandstorm, first wanting her attractive life but then becoming attracted to her because she finds her beautiful and perfect. Love that yellowfang is comforting her through this even if she doesn't fully understand why conderpelt is upset. Fyi that's how I interpret the song! A girl jealous of another girls perfect life..perfect looks, perfect boyfriend, ect..but through the jealousy of finding her attractive and perfect it comes to realization it's not just jealousy but that she's attracted to her as well; she wants to be her and she wants to be with her.

[@lj2659]

THIS IS THE CUTEST CONCEPT EVER!!! Poor Cinderpelt, I have really bad internalized homophobia so I feel for her :(((

[@mataschmata]

yellowfang: you have a crush on fireheart dont you cinderpelt: uhhh yeah haha p.s the way you've perfectly illustrated Panic Lesbian energy of what it's like being stupidly in love with a girl severely out of your league is incredible

The coloring tho.. GAH Also Yellowfang & Fireheart/star being fluffy gives me life I kinda wish the narrative was like this in the series, where Cinder has unrequited love for Sand. That would make things so much more interesting. And we really need that representation :(( Great job!! Keep up the great work

[@annemeownie]

Ahhh yes, Spiky sassy badass Sandbae with fluffy sweet baby Firebby. Of course Cinderpelt be sad, why are the dreamy gals easy to fall for the fluffy bois?

[@NegativeWhispers]

thanks orion!!!

[@GeriStrawberry]

coming back to this because this song was my bisexual awakening. I remember my mom would obsessively skip this song when it came on. I thought it was pretty neat they it was made in the first place as I only had this song and Katy Perry "I kissed a girl" but i didn't like the latter because of how blunt it was. This one kinda made me realize that yo.... The way I felt for my friend was the same way I felt for boys and that I indeed had a girl crush. That also being said, I really loved Cinderpelt so when I saw this pop up on my recommended I clicked so fast. Your Sandstorm design also played a huge role in creating mine. I just cant not see her as a pointy preppy girl anymore

[@Rulose]

Woke up today thinking about this video so I decided to give it a rewatch and funnily enough today is the 3 year anniversary to it, and I must say it most definitely holds up! Anyways thought this was a coincidence worth mentioning, and I still enjoy it as much as I did 3 years ago🧡🤍🩷

Ok that Sandstorm design is top tier.

OMG OMG I LOVEEEEEE YOUR SANDSTORM

[@Jackkara]

very cute and bittersweet story, the highlight for me was the big cat comforting the small one at the end. even though in the description you said the big cat Yellowfang comforted Cinderpelt for a different reason, for me it felt more like she knew of Cinderpelt's feelings. I wore my heart on my sleeve, and my family kept finding out who I was crushing for. I always remember my older brother comforting me as at the time I loved someone I knew wouldn't feel the same way, but I had such a hard time letting go of those feelings for the sake of our friendship. it took 3 years to get over it. after 8+ years we are still friends and I've managed to put those feelings behind me, but this video reminded me of those times so strongly and how it weighs on your heart :')

I watched this video even before I knew that Cinderpelt had a crush on Fireheart. I'm still reading Sunrise, but I know a lot of spoilers by the internet, and I was really impressed when I realized what this PMV meant. At first, I couldn't understand it at all. Now, it's a masterpiece.

This video is beautiful. Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who ships Cinderpelt and Sandstorm! Especially in the canon books during the fire, Sandstorm continuously kept supporting Cinderpelt and staying by her side and comforting her, and since I read that I've been in love with the idea of these two together. This animation really shows Cinder's feelings so well, it made my heart ache in sympathy for her!

[@spinnenpfotedonnerclan5318]

This is sooo cute! I love your style of drawing cats so simple but so nice and pleasing to look at - Cinderpelt is an absolute cutie! The slow, calm, "everyday-nature" of this PMV is nice as well, gives you time to focus on the colorful drawings and emotions. Cinderpelt actually be a closeted lesbian is such an interesting idea that I don't see very often. Even if this PMV isn't supposed to have a "Happy Ending" but I still like how you made them smile at each other at the end - Sandstorm can still be her friend after all. (And OMG the addition of Yellowfang in this as her grumpy but understanding teacher XD) I'm so excited for your new projects and found this video is a nice and creative way for you to cope.

[@histamiini529]

[@leafingaround6077]

Wow i love this pmv! Also at some points the colors kinda resemble some lgbt flags was that intentional? Like sandstorms fur kinda looked like the orange from the lesbian flag during a scene, like Sandstorm was a personification of Cinderpelt's feelings or something.
