- Lan Wangji plays inquiry one night, thoughts ensue.
This is my first ever animatic! Thank you to everyone for supporting me through the process of me speedrunning this video lmaoo. I basically worked on this project nonstop for the past like 3 1/2 weeks and made and edited 130+ illustrations in that time! Needless to say i'm taking a short break now and am probably gonna start doing my summer homework orz
Once again, thank you for watching and supporting!
my socials!

Oh wow, that was beautiful! The ending where Lan Zhan sees Wei Wuxian again, and it's like he's looking at light, that was beautiful! And all the memories he has of Wei Wuxian, from bad to good, that he reflects on... beautiful. I love these two, I'm so glad that despite everything they went through, they found each other in the end.
thank you so much for the heartfelt reply !! wangxian's journey definitely hits different, the way they always manage to come back to each other always gets me 😭❤
The part he saw Wei ying hurt me most. Inside Lan Zhan he’s thinking: “is it really you? Weiying!?” And the simmering light in his eyes light up once more.
Seeing Lan Wangi playing the soul summoning song is what really made me start to cry.........
My first language isn't English, so I thought it'd be nice to leave the lyrics here to help :)
Lyrics:
We’d run
Right through
Those nights
I’ll never find my way back to you, inside this labyrinth of lights
There was madness
In the meaning
Never laughless
We were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
This city never died
I’ll fly
No proof
Those heights
I’ll never find another chance to say “hey thanks for saving my life”
I was hopeless
It was stinging
Running roadless
We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
This city never died
What was the root of it all?
I couldn’t say.
Used to jump and then fall
Rugged and cliched
Would shrug it off without complaint, not a sound
No use in trying to find friends, cuz in the end nobody sticks around
Its when you shoved yourself into a crowded place
That you turned around and found yourself in love in outer space
Cue the reckless nights, no strings,
Laughing at our own dreams
Just what the hell was so funny?
Bark up the wrong tree, stumble, used to falling great heights
Amidst a concrete jungle, singing cuz it felt right
We mixed the ennui and troubles rhyming our discontent
And though it’s history, I can’t forget the time that we spent
Convinced that this could mean another end
Exists between real and pretend
A twisted alter-fiction where I missed my chance, did not ascend and
Disappearing into the mist of “never happened”
Is the me that I can never befriend.
I let it go…
Fade in, fade out
This crazy dream
Without a direction, floating aimlessly
There’s nothing left back there for me
Breathe in, but it won’t stop the rain from pouring
We’d run
Right through
Those nights
I’ll never find my way back to you inside this labyrinth of lights
There was madness
In the meaning
Never laughless
We were screaming at the top of our lungs to the numbness
This city never died
But was there ever a soul inside?
Chasing fireflies
Between the soaring high-rises
Left a trail behind
defined it “wasted time of our lives”
Silent singer, overworked and underpaid
Thinks an office is a coffin until off is where you’re laid
Yet a thought persists, an optimist who ought to be afraid
Saw the “nothing wrong” in writing songs behind the lonely shade
Is the world a sadder place without the words that you conveyed?
When the ladder fell and shattered every bar that we had played
Does it matter in the end the sound diminished and decayed
And your friends grew tired of fantasy? You’re wishing they had stayed?
You don’t get to say “I miss you”
You watched your heroes fade
Into the rear view-mirror of the villain you portrayed
Stop the pity party, listen, you don’t get to be dismayed
You don’t get to be emotional, feel blessed you got it made
These the best of years of life because you chose to make a trade
Recollect the days you hoped and you prayed for this
What is there to miss?
Fade in, fade out
This hazy dream
Without a direction, roaming aimlessly
There’s nothing left back there for me
Pretend it’s the end of a made up story
I’ll fly
No proof
Those heights
I’ll never find another chance to say “hey thanks for saving my life”
I was hopeless
It was stinging
Driving roadless
We were singing at the top of our lungs to the numbness
This city never died
I’ll say goodbye to the soul inside
And yet somehow,
There was romance
In our self-hate
“We’ve got no chance”
In this light maze
But let’s hold hands
Through the night haze
We’ll run so fast
‘Til the school chime
‘Til the train runs
We know it’s time
We’re the sane ones
Waking up now
To the real life
Lemme daydream
‘Til the next night
I’ll keep waiting
I’ll keep waiting for you
Waking up now
To my real life
Lemme daydream
‘Til the next flight
Drowning so long
I got older
Now the crowd’s gone
Is it over?
WOW that’s some effort u got there
THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE DRAWN SO WELL
THIS ANIMATIC MAKES ME FEEL THINGS
no wait because this animatic is actually STUNNING !! the song is perfect, the drawings are amazing, and the way you colored everything omg i’m actually obsessed !! you’re so talented !!
omg lwj recollecting wwx memories is so 😚👌and i love your compositions! i find it absolutely bonkers (in the best way) that this piece is colored!! 🤯 thank u so much for sharing! 🥰🥰🥰
holy crap hi!!! i never expected you would see my silly little animatic! your safe and sound animatic gave me a lot of inspiration while i was making this one
THAT WAS AMAZING! my fav part was when Jiang Cheng was yelling at him, hurts so good
Based on the book, I feel like Wei Wuxian likes being doted on, and so he started realizing and appreciating Lang Zhan when he got into Mo Xuanyo's body because that's when Lang Zhan becomes more confident in his gayness to WWX.
THIS WAS SO GORGEOUS!!! How on earth is this your first animatic, you talented talented being?!?! You earned yourself a subscriber!!
This is so beautiful! I have goosebumps from this beauty 😭😭😭
GAH this is so well done!!!
I LOVE the airbrushed quality and textures that you use for everything here, and the emotions you conveyed are so raw !!
and I'm not 100% sure if this was intentional, but the way everything has washed out, pale colors fits so well! and then at the end we finally get brighter, more saturated colors as WWX comes back into LWJs life! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
i also just really love the way you draw hair, the way it drapes and has weight to it is really well done! art goals right there tbh.
I just keep coming back to this, keep rewatching it, noticing more and more things I love about it.
I think the part I love most is "admidst a concrete jungle, used to fall from great heights" just bc the emotion you have displayed on WWXs face, the framing of it, the colors, just AAAAAAAAAA perfection! and the small camera shake at the part with the cracked glass just Really Hits as well!
I keep accidentally looking at this from a storyboarding analysis perspective, curse the art courses I took last semester! Just let my enjoy my animatics in peace lmao
turning off my art brain and just enjoying this tho-- I swear I nearly cried when I watched this the first time, and it still makes me emotional the like, 15th or some time I've come back to it lmao
thank you for making this, it has enriched my life!
THIS IS YOUR FIRST ANIMATIC??????????
aaa it's absolutely INCREDIBLE, EVERY SINGLE FRAME IS PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL *AND* ON TOP OF THAT YOU'VE PORTRAYED + CREATED THE EMOTIONS SO SO WELL AAAAA
I esp like the two shots at 0:15 and 0:18, they're done so well - also 1:21 aaaaaaa and just the frame at 2:23 (THAT LIGHTING AND ANGLE) and 2:31 when everyone leaves and ALL the times we flash back to earlier with WWX smiling and the way you've portrayed Inquiry with the little ghost particles and THE WAY YOU'VE DONE THE ENDING WITH THE LIGHT (and having it be the reflection in LWJ's eyes rather than an actual frame) and ierusdfkghsjhfdcv
immediately adding this to the list of my fav animatics ever it's SO SO GOOD AAAA
This is godlike!!! I can't believe this doesn't have more likes, its so beautiful and touching!
So I really have to say that this is amazing! The way you conveyed the story fitting to the lyrics is great.
And I rly wanna compliment you on the robes- especially the Lan ones. They have been drawn exceptionally well, especially the shadows.
I… Omg I can’t belief you made one of my fav songs into a Wangxian animatic!! Can’t wait to listen to this ❤
this has to be one of my fav mdzs animatics oh my god I almost shed tears 😭😭
This is so beautiful *cries*
Меня тронуло, что Лань Чжэнь не сжигал деньги Вей Ину. «Ритуальные деньги сжигают только мёртвым»
А вообще, если в Китаской новелле умер главный герой, то это не навсегда
OMG MY HEART THAT WAS SO GOOD YOU HAVE A NEW SUB
