InTheLittleWood REACTS to "[Running Up That Hill] || Double Life Animatic"

[@EverenArt]

Never thought I’d add “fucking Martyn up” to my artistic achievements XD Thank you for your kind words Martyn! It made my week! Also so you know: very much not a full time artist, but a big life series enjoyer in any free time I can find! Looking forward to the next series :)

[@luminariel3765]

I know this is a work of art, but someone needs to dub in the most sarcastic hermit for each poignant moment XD

[@darkdragoness5]

The actual events are just as heartbreaking, because Martyn convinced Cleo that they have to turn on Scott eventually. So when they realised that Pearl killed Impulse and Bdubs, Martyn attacked Scott while Cleo did nothing to even warn him. Scott ended up having to flee from the person he trusted above all others, because in the end, she put her own soulmate above him.

Fire hair Tango is just fanon. The more people love someone's skin the more supernatural characteristics they tend to give it. Tango is also often drawn with pointy ears and a tail, but not horns anymore because it bothers him.

I love how every fan animation makes Grian look like just *some guy.* Like you might pass him walking down the street and he'd look just like that. But then when you actually watch his gameplay, he IS the one who knocks. Man is a menace in British clothing.

[@julianemery718]

To be fair, even though there was no script for any of the life series episodes, the stories that just... materialised out of the chaos really had me enraptured. And then the fans went and dramatized the drama even more though stuff like this, it's amazing.

[@natorvr8629]

I believe that the pairs were scripted. Because about half of them make sense Grian - Scar (They were together for all of Third Life because of Grian exploding Scar with a creeper in episode 1) Scott - Pearl (They were together for all of Last Life because Pearl promised Scott a life if he stayed with her throughout episode 1 (If I recall correctly)) Impulse - Bdubs (They were together for almost all of Third Life. But Bdubs betrayed impulse in the final episode because scar gave him a clock. I believe those are all of the scripted ones (Please tell me if I am wrong)

[@louie-laur]

@NatorVR Grian has said it was genuinely random. I believe if they had been planned, Grian would've been with BigB and Etho with BDubs.

[@natorvr8629]

@@louie-laur I have no idea. However, that does make sense

[@adalon378]

​@@natorvr8629 yes, there was no sign that the pairs were known in advance. That's what I find most impressive, the fact that they came up with all this plot while just going with their guts and having fun. It's so good, that it can be dramatized and this video finally made it justice. The only change from the series was the ending, which to me Everen fixed. The original ending of Scott killing himself to give Pearl the victory (as if she wasn't going to die too anyway), was very lame... she deserved an epic and fitting ending. This was an epic ending!

[@malpheus4299]

​@@adalon378 I disagree, scott handing off the victory to pearl was symbolic of him forgiving her for all her shenanigans and not finding him earlier on in the first episode. Well, that's the dramatised idea behind it anyway, I thought it was neat.

6:37 Didn't see this myself, but from another comment in the original animation. The reflection in Etho's eyes briefly show the scene referencing Last Life when Etho boogey-killed Scar. A nice callback to another time, and another life...

About the string, “the red string of fate” or strings relating to fate or relationships/soulmates in general is a symbolic motif that’s shows up in all sorts of media. You can probably even tie (and excuse the pun) it back to the gates of Greek mythos, etc.. I’ve seen it used a lot in fandom spaces!

[@dawnshade4939]

The specific red string tied around the finger can be tracked back down to (I believe) Chinese mythology but in that the strings are tied around your pinky toes

[@KnittedSister]

Yup, the same in Asatro (Norse mythology) the three "norner" (wise old women) live at the roots of Yggdrasil, the tree of life, where they spindle and weave the threads of human lives, intertwining some, deciding how long each persons thread (life) is going to be, and weave the great tapestry of life. They remember all that have been, and know all that is coming.

Adding something as real as the permanence of death and the definitive end to a game like Minecraft where its a countdown through your lives is a great source of angst

I believe about the Tango flame hair thing, it's to represent how temperamental he is, and so when he is angry in animatics, his hair flames up to symbolize the fiery emotions.

[@Average-Joe851]

Something I realized about the animation. The locations of where the characters are bonded is based on how people treated the mechanic. 3 Types are going to be designated by Noose, Ring, and Heart. The Ring is the person barely cared or used the bond. The Heart is they actually cared and where the person's allegiance was. The Noose is the person treated as if their soul mate was always putting them in danger.

Survivors guilt. I am super into the life series and have watched every single perspective.

[@yoshiintheweb8182]

Correction! Tango's design is 100% fanon interpretation, and the demon part actually bothers him (that's why there's no horns as that's the bothered him the most) Additional references: -Purple string of Etho going to Bdubs but it's torn -> referencing last life -in the fishing part, when we can see Etho, his eyes reflects the situation, in like a second the images changes into Scar (in place od Joel) and Etho (in place of Grian) referencing one of Etho's boogyman kills in last life

[@sunlakestar2549]

Enderman kills Jimmy Sonically charged shriek kills Grian And of course their partners also die, and that was their last life so they're out for good there. That's the two random people. After that: Scott burns the RelationShip Joel takes revenge and burns everyone's bases Then it's Martyn, Cleo, Scott and Pearl as the last yellow lives. Pearl and Scott go to red and Pearl leaves him for the other reds while Scott stays with Cleo and Martyn. Joel and Etho go to the nether and burn to death The other two are hunted down and slain by Pearl. Martyn turns on Scott and tries to blow him up with a firework but Scott manages to get away Pearl kills Cleo, which kills Martyn as well And finally Scott ends his own life, bringing Pearl down with him. In the end there were no winners. Just bitterness and hate for the two that actually did win by title.

Yknow looking back Cleo and Martyn as a team would be terrifying Cleo is extremely menacing but unsure of herself in gameplay (not saying she’s *bad,* her targets are in genuine danger, but she often overextends and then panics) Martyn can match Cleo’s vibes and then back them up with a bit more combat threat, still keeping a cooler head before red and watching her back as she goes in

[@poisonedoak6563]

[@ThomasWooods]

What I loved about this and the whole series is that while Martyn and Pearl both started by being seperated with their soulmate, Martyn eventually reconsiled, and worked with Cleo, motivating her to keep going and living, even at the very end. How I enterpreted that in lore, Martyn was never out to do evil even when he took a dark role on the server by having broken ties, when it all came down to it he was by the side of his soulmate for better or for worse. He didnt just want to save his own life by Killing Pearl, his first ally and friend on the server, but he wanted to save his soulmate too. thats why they went for Pearl despite Scott possibly being a better option, but Martyn, knew how much it would hurt Cleo and he wanted to make her happy even if it killed them. Martyn and Cleo's bond is by far my favorite in the series, as it feels like a real adventure movie could be made about it, but Ill admit Pearl and Scott are my second favorite for the tense setting.

[@dadragonlynxi]
