Palm trees.

[@fraylak]

I love the little details in this. The fact that the scientist who was the "handler" of Morel was named Dr. Wormwood, which intentional or not matches an album and song by the oh hellos called Dear Wormwood. The song is about overcoming an abusive relationship, and is written in the form of the victim speaking to the abuser about how they recognize them for how awful they are now and refuse to continue to live in their shadow. Thematically I really like how this can apply to Morel and the doctor. I also love the use of color, and how the portions at the lab are desaturated and dark, whereas with tango everything is bright with a soft yellow glow. Communicating on a base level how different the two are. The flowers as symbolism of Morel's hurt and high emotion too, are so impactful especially contrasting their fear of getting revealed to tango to their "normal" in the lab- you almost always see the flowers in the lab and it just shows how much they were hurting. In conclusion I love this so much.

[@b4stard_sweet]

I’m not sure how intentional _this_ was, but The Oh Hellos wrote Dear Wormwood based off of CS Lewis’s Screwtape Letters, which are about Xtianity and resisting temptation. The Oh Hellos’s original, Xtian meaning of the song was a rejection of not an abuser, but of satan. in conclusion: godly themes in scientist = god complex something something mushroom likely thinking in extremes & viewing abused as literal satan something something. so yeah! :^)

[@b4stard_sweet]

abuser* but im on mobile n cant edit

[@SproutHaven]

I love Dear Wormwood! It's one of my favorite albums. Dr. Wormwood herself is also inspired by the Wormwood family from Matilda, since Dr. Wormwood was sort of a parental figure to Morel as well.

[@LeoAteTheWallAgain]

Omg. The fact you can depict that amazes me. If I ever do something like this beautiful animation, I hope people would be this analytical of it. :’D Anyway, have a good day, you all are very talented. ❤

The reason they get along is that as ginger tango knows what its like for other people to see you as soulless monster.

LOL

Oh yeah that’s absolutely the reason they get along XD

[@Cronical307]

Hey Sprout (not sure what to call you). I wanted to let you know that the channel @YourBoyfriendWill (also known as WilliamFluffy) has reuploaded this animatic and your 'everything I wanted' animatic, as well as a ton of others taken from other animators onto their channel. If anyone that isn't Sprout sees this could they like so we can let them know.

I was in the psychiatric wing of a hospital once, and some of the kids (13-17) there were treated like Morel, just with less force/security. This type of treatment is real and ongoing.

I love how in this series I'll look through the characters and half of the descriptions are "she's a 19 yr old inspiring paranormal investigator! and the half we be "They're a 2,000 year old god drinking away the sorrows of many lives!" The whiplash between wholesome friends trying to run a small business and eldritch horrors who need therapy is one of my favourite things in fiction and the its just not common enough. Or you get things that play that aspect of conflict between cute and tragic/epicly terrifying just play it for a joke. Taking it completely seriously is just wonderful and gives you this strange intriguing sense of interest. Like in your 'we don't talk about bruno' animatic you'll see sunny sitting around and be like "Cool guy with pretty glasses and horns!" then find out his Title is:Blood God. Love it, thanks for making these animatics they're really great.

[@ConfusedUniverse-wj9fw]

The sentence "eldrich horrors that need therapy" is not something i though i would read today

[@stellak179]

Added: blood god who is a therapist and somehow still needs therapy. I love this world so much because the depth the characters have is just insane.

[@matthewboire6843]

That’s what makes this series absolutely amazing and so original.

thank you for the line ''you are not any less deserving of a home'' it brought tears to my eyes and that does not happen often.

Words can’t express how much emotion the animatic gave me, I manifested hard and received (EVEN THOUGH IT EMOTIONALLY KILLED ME) Thank you Shilo for your hard work💜

[@Arty_Apple_Bee]

CHILLS. As always, your animatics are absolutely stunning. When the flowers start to fill the screen and then everything lights up because of the hug omfg. Amazing work, I love this so much

Thank you 😊

[@plantless4534]

I am not crying, you are. I don't know what you're saying

[@VilkasG]

dude ur style of both drawing and storywriting/storytelling is awesome. it reminds me of kindergarten stories you could read in children books, especially harpy hare. this is the type of story that would make an amazing book, but not a movie. the visuals are best like this, never truly revealing the whole story. it all stays in the imagination...

I really loved this cinamatic it was beautiful, I love Tango and Morel's friendship and bond, and how depsite how he suffered, he finally found a home with new friends to call a family. It was very heartwarming to see that.

[@anub3207]

I love how you kept the little lines in Tango's hair. That is such a great detail and fun to see in the animatics.

[@Echolocatingcheese]

the stories you can tell with just a few minutes, when people say art is powerful, this is what they mean. your work is stunning and this brought me closer to tears then most other forms of media.

[@cotten_cloude5738]

thank you, because of this animation and song i remembered a story i came up with 2 almost 3 now years ago and i got into writing in 2024 and im now turning it into a book and hoping to turn it into an animated series at some point in life, so once again thank you

[@CourtneyHartman-mm5zz]

I love the story so much it's so heartbreaking

I've heard this song for so long, treated it in no way, sat in that VR chat world, talked. But now about 5 years have passed. So much has changed around me, so much has changed in me, so many people have gone forever. I think about my past, and I miss it...
