if you like my old version more than this one that's entirely within your right. but you don't have to like. tell me that you prefer the old version ok. you can keep that to yourself i do not have to know about it. ♥

hiiiii, sorry for throwing another remake at you i promise i wont just be remaking my old videos Forever now. i just really. dont like my old version of this meme. not for any particular reason i kinda just hate how rushed it was knowing that i could do so much better with how good this meme is. so i made it better!
obviously the focus is still on eiya and kane, but rather than jumping deep into their estrangement like in my old version, i wanted to hint at the multiple catalysts (which happened in quick succession) that made their estrangement and turmoil towards each other inevitable. they make me so sad. i kinda dipped everything here in symbolism and analogy because theres a few things in this video that hint at Events so take it all with a grain of salt, both of these characters view and cope with The Events in wildly different ways (and neither of them have the full story) so you cant fully trust either of their povs ♥
PLEASE do not take any of my runes videos as completely canon!! things are subject to change as the comic continues. if it isnt in the comic yet, dont assume its going to 100% happen in the comic.
main character(s) used: kane (he/him), eiya (she/they)
other character(s): laxo (he/him), vis (he/him), the ancestors (they/them), nex (he/him)
programs used: firealpaca (drawing) after effects (editing)

Losing my mind over the snakes omg. Eiya's being a coral snake (venomous) and Kane's being a kingsnake (non-venomous) is GENIUS and it's making me so excited to see the progression of Runes, because coral snakes and kingsnakes also get confused with each other which has me like "that has to be part of the symbolism and now I need to know the specifics." I have so many Thoughts on just the snake symbolism ajkgjsfdsj

[@Hellhunde]

OOOOOOH SHIT THIS IS SOOOOOOO LOVELY DUDE!!!!!! I love the snakes symbolism with them being snakes that are very often mixed up about which is venomous or not. I love how when we see vis' body he has a snake bite on his neck and i kinda get the feeling that eiya is wondering if it was THEIR metaphorical snake (which i believe to be nex) or Kane's metaphorical snake (which i think is laxo) that was the cause of it. good shit. definitely makes me curious!!!

[@Thegreatmaddu]

DUDDEEE THIS SLAPSSS the old version was already great but I LOVE the tweening in this one!!! The movements are so good. I am so scared for The Events save them... Also THE BLOOD SMEAR PART UGGHHHH THAT WAS AWESOME,,,

[@StarrySwirly]

the goblin animation meme ever

[@deercliff]

OOOUGH GLOOM THIS IS SO GOOD the bit with the little baby eiya and kane im gonna FREAK IT i love the "sold my soul to the radio" bit it's really nice editing.

[@RIS3ND3MON]

Dude, you never fail to absolutely FLOOR me with how unbelievably impressive your animations are! The characters really seem like they are in a three dimensional environment. The way you did the shading and how they fit in is just perfect. I love the expressions too! You put so much effort and detail into such a short glimpse of animation. I can't help but replay it in slower speeds and watch in awe at your work. ♡

[@EchoDrawsThingss]

[@hotdog2611]

Watching this and older one back to back shows me you've improved on your art MASSIVELY. Especially with the editing and little themeing with lore sprinkled in!! I love this one so much more, ITS SO FLIPPING GOOD. WELL DONE. Man... I know this focuses on Eiya (I love you girl, nothing will ever make me hate you) and Kane but Im so damn curious as too WHY Laxo killed Vis because its hinted at and shown in "BLAH BLAH BLAH" too. I know you said can't these with a grain of salt and I am but I wanna know what happens SO BADLY. URGH. I can't wait

[@helpra]

[@nightdreammm]

I was just watching the old version yesterday and you somehow managed to make it even BETTER?? I WHAT CAN I SAY I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS

[@dulcette]

All the characters are so expressive it looks so nice! I loved the ending a lot ✨

[@_-ItsJustFlame16-_]

'Red touching black, safe for Jack. Red touching yellow, kill a fellow' that was really cool remake,there's so much new motions now and the symbolism:D Lots of ramble about the snakes: Eiya is carrying in her mouth a coral snake,a very venomous snake,which foreshadows how Vis is killed by Eiya(?) via the venom of the said snake.Yet at the end of the animation Nex can be seen next to a snake,which can be meant:A.The death was a complete accident(Due to the fact that at the start of the video the snake was flashing between a coral and king,which are familiar to each other,and Nex did something with it,either replaced it or something like that,which ngl sounds kind of silly) or B.Nex is behind this death,pulling the strings by using Eiya and possibly Laxo. Meanwhile on Kane's neck the snake wrapped around it is a kingsnake,a non venomous one,but as stated,has some resembles to coral snake.I think it symbolizes how ancients are 'suffocating' him,with how they look serpentine in this pmv.And even though kingsnakes are not dangerous physically,mentally I think they still can give a scare this is all what I can think of at the moment,I need some sleep

[@zeekryn]

OHHHMYGOSHH,, I remember the original coming out and now seeing this; its just gorgeous?! I love the symbolism ans THE IMPROVEMENT IS IIINSANE!! WOAH!! This was a lovely treat to get in my recommended!

[@RaqiiCat]

I loved ur Ighost meme this one is just amazing!!

[@not_anymore]

the storytelling in this is sooo good omg and the animation itself so prettyyy

[@specialtyk9212]

I saw this in my recommended and was like "huh, the thumbnail looks different than I remember". Pleasantly surprised to see a remake! I absolutely ADORE how HAUNTED they look. Especially at 0:15, there's just so much dispair and grief in their eyes. Amazing art, beautifully agonizing expressions :,)

[@Sopjies]

Good work, loved the snakes ;)

[@TOKYOSWING]

Oh my gosh, Gloom!! I remember when the first one came out and thought it was so good! But this???? I'm so impressed right now! Amazing job, dude!!

THIS IS SOOOOO FUCKING GOOD

[@cringeworthy4755]

This is awesome but I just genuinely - and no hate to you whatsoever, you are well within your right to create and remove any content you want - I would like to know why the other video was put down. You don't have to answer of course, I'm just curious. Anyways your content SLAPS as always! I can wait read more of your comic 😊

[@gloomforrest]

not much of an answer really but i just dont like it anymore! i unlist/private a lot of videos that i dont like for whatever reason and dont feel comfortable with people watching anymore. esp videos from 2+ years ago were during an iffy time in my life and they sorta have an extra layer of Ick for me due to that. ^.^

[@buggibii]

they make me ⛓️🥀🖤🗡💔🌑

To Gloomforest Hi, appologies if this is inappropriate but if you're looking for meme ideas, may I recommend Killing Butterflies by Lou Bliss.

[@nonamenoname9322]

The animation is great, but I just wish the plot was clear as to what was happening
