TL;DR
I am still suffering a lot of physical pain and it has severly limited what I can do. We aren't giving up on any of our projects, but we do need to take things much slower for the future. We are unsure if/when I will be better, and while that's happening, Whitney has had to pick up a job to support us.
Commissions are a top priorty to finish, but the commission tiers will be going away effective immediately. If you still need to put in requests for commissions, please go ahead and put them in the que and I promise I'll get to them as soon as possible. Thank you for all the support! ❤
We aren't going anywhere, and we hope to still have you around as we figure out our new normal. Thanks ❤
I have fibro too sweet so I understand your pain, if you ned anything let me know x
I’m sending my best wishes to you both, I believe in you both and we adore your passion.
No matter what happens we love you all and regardless of where things go we have patience to see where things go.
Focus on you both and your passions ❤️ what ever happens happens things will be okay.
I have had invisible disabilities my whole life and over the last 1-2 years things have gotten to be incredibly debilitating. It is a grieving process, regardless of how your health is in the future. What you can and should do changes, and you have to give up a lot of things you never considered and never wanted to.
It's really really hard to come to terms with. I struggle with it a lot. It's ok to be upset, to be angry, to be sad, to mourn.
You are doing the right things, I am sure you never wanted to do this but still. Whether or not projects get continued or finished, the impact you made here does mean something.
Whitney and your animation pilgrimage has been a wonderful series. And I love what you have put out here (the KH Riku video being one of my favorites of all time)
I am sorry, I see you, and I wish you the best. There are no simple answers and it isn't easy to sit with uncertainty and pain and a new reality.
Oh gosh, this sounds horrible- Drawing a Blank and Clouded Moon are by far my favourite projects of yours, and as an artist myself imagining being in pain every time you sit down to draw is a nightmare. Tennelle, you’ve been one of my biggest art inspirations ever since I saw your Wings of Fire videos while looking up fanart years and years ago. I hope for the best for both of you!
Proud of you for being so strong in the face of all that has been going on. I'm here for you if you ever need to talk or vent or meme about anything!
The way Whitney talks about playing MTG intimidates me so much, lol.
Even if you posed once every 10 years, or never again, your always be one of my favorite RUclipsrs.
Agreed.
Like wise ❤️
Regardless of whether or not you will be fine monetarily, I will still continue to support via patreon, it's the least I can do. I'm so sorry that things have come to this and am wishing you all the best, but I ain't going anywhere. Take your time healing, you got this!
You guys WILL get through this. You have each other, and your close friends and thousands of people who love you will be right behind you. You are strong individuals.
Animation Pilgrimage has been a bright spot in my week for several years now, and I'm glad that it makes you both as happy to create as it makes me happy to listen and learn about the history of animation. Please try to be kind to yourselves and your future, and take as much time as you need to rest and figure things out.
Hey Tennelle. I dont know if you know anyone else with Fibromyalgia, but I was "diagnosed" roughly 8 years ago. Please try to be gentle with yourself. Unfortunately, stress makes flare ups worse, in my experiance, which can be a vicious cycle. I do hope you can find something that helps with pain management, Ive been fighting that battle for nearly a decade. Take care of yourselves, both of you. More than anything we want to see you get better and make the content that brings YOU joy.
If it's any help at all, a rheumatologist was the first person to ever help me in the pain management department. Maybe it's not for you, but if my knowledge is of any help, I'll do what I can.
I hope you get better, Tennelle. Take the time you need to do what you have to do to keep going. From everyone here on RUclips, get better soon.
Weekly monthly yearly I'm down for whatever. Do what you need to feel comfortable. Take on only what you can really handle❤
And y'all fans? Remember, sometimes you gotta wait for your favorite team to get out in the field, but it's worth it.
Just stopping by on this video again to say your amazing creative work is still appreciated. Hoping you’re doing ok!
Tennelle, I am so sorry this is happening to you. Your Kingdom Hearts videos completely changed my perception of the series, and have made me fall in love with it all over again. I can't thank you enough for that. I truly wish you all the best, and that you take all the time you need.
As someone who’s watched their partner go through a lot of serious health issues this year and come to terms with their own lifelong disability, I completely, utterly, absolutely empathize with what you’re going through. It’s so hard and it sucks so fucking much. I’m so, so sorry you guys are going through this.
I really hope you’re feeling better soon Tennelle and that y’all take care of yourselves. We’ll still be here supporting you guys and ready whenever you’re feeling up for things.
I was wondering why your art videos where becoming less and less. I am so sorry you're in such pain, I'll still support you through and through though
This will be sad to go on with but I hope you feel better soon. You are one of my biggest inspirations as an artist and I thank you for that.😥💛🧡💚💜
Just stopping by to show some love ❤❤ hope you guys are doing good. Missing you!
A friend introduced me to AP just this week and while sad to hear it will be slowing down, as a longtime disabled person myself please be kind to yourself, give yourself lots of grace, and whatever content y'all do put out will be wonderful to see ❤
i'm so sorry this is happening to you, man. as someone with chronic pain, i wouldn't wish that on anyone. take all the time you need, and take care to not overwork yourself.
I am so sorry for what’s happening right now. My best friend has fibromyalgia. She’s had it for as long as she can remember, i assume since around puberty. Aside from being tired all the time, you could never tell. She interacts with everyone and laughs and participates in school plays, all while being in constant pain. There are times when it gets too much for her, ive seen her lows. But she still managed to overcome it and learn to live alongside it. She’s one of the strongest people i know. If anything, take that as hope that this wont control you. I know that things suck right now, and it may for a while or forever, however its not over for you ❤️
Seeing you two smiling and laughing just proved how strong you are. It brought a huge smile to my face.
As someone who is disabled and was born that way I can say that while you may not be able to do what you love at the frequency you've been doing it you can still do what you love and maybe even with time get to some semblance of "better" well it may never be the same I can assure you that is time passes what's love and support you'll be able to make it through and you can still do what you love just at a slower rate take it from me it's not easy but I wish you the best of luck what fighting Spirit you seem to have I know you can make it hopefully this helped
I'm a fan of AP, I started back in 2020, and it took me until this year to catch the videos, and I loved the pieces of your lives that you gave us. I actually look forward to the day you catch up and talk about nowadays movies. I really like your content and I really hope you get answers soon enough and feel better, even if you can't update as frequently, or even ever again, I'm glad you gave guys me so much knowlege. My best wishes for both of you.
I suffer with fibromyalgia that seemed to worsen dramatically in the last few years. I've been watching you since around 2017. I feel for you, it's kinda surreal seeing one of my fevorite RUclipsrs develop the same condition. My own journey with fibro has been really hard, it's changed everything. Some things for the worse, some for the better. I know I'm 9 months behind, but I hope things are somewhat better now. Living with chronic pain and fatigue is incredibly difficult, but with enough patience, it's manageable.
This must be extremely hard on both of you. My mum has it, so while never directly dealing with it myself, I've even how someone can be affected by fibromyalgia. Im wishing both you and Whitney the best, physically and mentally. We care more for both of your guys health far more than the frequency of content. Take however long you need, whenever the next video may be, we'll be there just glad you've been feeling well enough to do this. Wishing you both the best of luck moving forward.
Wishing you two genuinely only the best 🫂❤️
It makes my blood boil when shitty stuff like this happened to such amazing people like you. You’ll always have my support and the support of many others. I wish you a healthy 2024 and I hope things turn out for the better ❤ stay strong
I'm so sorry you have been suffering so much pain!! PLEASE please please focus on your health!! I think you are making the right choice by prioritizing your health and listening to your body. I sincerely hope that you will have those benefits and a proper diagnosis as well as a way to manage these symptoms very soon!
Hi Tenelle. Please don't ever worry about work, I think we all agree that your health matters most to us. No matter how long it takes we will be here waiting to support you!
And honestly, for me you don't even have to draw. You could just make an unedited video of you talking about Soriku for hours or your favorite animes and I would come faster than you can hit that Upload button. 😭❤
I could just feel the sadness in Whitney's voice...Nothing this bad should ever had happened to you two. It's fine if your video progress slows down. I haven't made much because I simply don't feel the energy or interest in it. Just know that your true fans will always be here. I'm so happy I was looking up videos for "Alice of Wonderland in Paris" out of curiosity, as that was how I discovered you two ❤
I wish you both the best of luck and I hope their is less pain in the future
*hugs you both, hugs Tennelle softly* I am glad you guys are taking this new course of your lives as best you can. Keep being strong no matter the strength you use, and always know how much we love you guys. Take care and make it one day at a time.
I believe in you guys and believe that you’ll get better, tenelle 💛 you were my main inspiration for my art when I was a lot younger, and I still see your influences in my style today, plus ur vids got me into warriors! I even thought wildfur was a canon character for a while lmao. You guys can get thru this, I’ll support this channel no matter what and tho I’m unable to use patreon, I wish y’all good luck and would definitely donate if I could
I understand 1000% tennelle, this channel, AP and the stream highlights have all been an unimaginable boost to my happiness and reigniting passions the last few years, but the people behind them will always matter the most. I've been around friends and family with long covid, incurable disabilities or ones that have extremely long recovery periods, and I know how much it takes out of them, and the fact you can't even guarantee it'll feel better really does suck. Wishing you and whitney the absolute best going forward, never stop doing what you love.

So sorry to hear about your condition, Tennelle. I hope you get the necessary treatment, and by all means take breaks between videos, even if it means two videos a year.
Health problems are a real physical and mental demon:( we care for you guys more than just your artwork or videos, take it easy and do the things that make you happy!
I'm sorry if this comment is dumb or insensitive but have you tried acupressure? It really helped me with my chronic pain issues when nothing else worked. However, my pain was caused mostly by anxiety so I don't know how much acupressure will help someone with real problems.
I hope your pain eases up soon and you're both able to keep yourselves as happy and as healthy as possible in the mean time! Your projects will always be comforting and so so cool, and I hope you're able to continue to do all the stuff that makes you happy ❤
i am so very sorry that this has happened to you. learning to live with chronic pain can be a real challenge. it's more than understandable if you need to cut back on content that you're making while you learn to adjust, i'm just so sorry for what's been happening and i wish you all of the best during this time. i'm still more than happy to keep supporting on patreon, the stuff you two do is amazing! and even if it means having to slow production/halt some projects for some time, that's absolutely okay! your health is priority number 1 💕
OH NO :((!! Sorry for being MIA a lot as far as streams and stuff, lots of life changes going on (primarily going to college!). I know a few people with long covid and also with fibromyalgia, both things suck by themselves and I can't imagine them together. I'm really sorry for both of you and I will sincerely be hoping, praying, sending vibes, etc.! I know it's a massive and a sad change for everyone but I'm glad you're making changes to make your health a priority over trying to push through your pain and making it worse :) I may not be able to support monetarily rn but I will always support you both no matter what, you guys have been massive inspirations to me both in art and just as people and I can't thank you enough for it all 💖 I know you guys can get through this or at least adjust to it, and I will be here for every step (even if I'm not there in chat)! Lots of love to y'all 💖💖💖
I feel for you
So I’m randomly watching Chronicles of Narnia (live-action), which reminded me of the animated movie from the 70’s I used to watch as a kid. Which got me thinking about The Little Fox (Vuk) and I came across your guys’ Animation Pilgrimage on it. Decided to check out your page and now I see this. I literally found out about you guys like 12 minutes ago. I really hope things are getting better. Keep your heads up, you’re doing great things!
Hope you are doing well!
While I'm sadly not in a position to donate right now, I wish both of you all the best ❤ I've been a fan of this channel for years and I genuinely wish you a smooth path to finding something that helps. Much love.
Wishing you guys the very best of luck and health. Your patreon/discord was one of thr first time i ever supported a creator, and even though i was a bit immature, you guys had built such a wonderfully passionate community that made me feel welcomed. You guys are amazing people who don't deserve all the crap life has been throwing at you. Truly hope you can soon return to things you love, and im sending my support however i can in the meantime
I love you guys. Whether I've been on stream or watching videos you guys have gotten me through a lot with your weird humor and upbeat personalities. Time to take care of yourselves
I'm so sorry y'all are going through this difficult time! Unexpected health problems especially keeping you from making art is scary, frustrating and stressful.
I will be more than willing to still support you on Patreon and be more active on Discord! I wish both of you the best!
I hope you get better God bless you God can help you if you let him 🥹 I love you 😭
Oh, that is awful to hear, I hope you could get better 🙏
Tenelle, we'll always be here for you.
What matters most is your health, and we as your audience and fans, we're gonna support you.
I hope this turns out okay, and i hope you two will be okay.
;w; I hope that you will recover even if it's little by little.
manifesting for your fibromyalgia to go away in anyway
I’m so sorry that this is happening to you. Hope you get better soon and are able to return to doing what you both love!
So sad to hear about this, it really does change things long term. Hope the recovery goes well, hope that you find a new normal that you're comfortable with and that you find some peace knowing this could happen to anyone. Best wishes to both of you and big hugs from norway.
Tennelle, you’ve been one of my favorite youtubers since i found your channel with the “why you shouldn’t want a warrior cats movie” video so many years ago, before i even had a youtube account :,) Due to life and such i haven’t been able to support as much as i would’ve liked to, but i hope you get better and i just want you to know that your content has brought so much joy into my life, and i wish you and Whitney all the best
Hoping the best for you now and in the future.
I feel so sorry for you. I got sick during the pandemic and have had various health issues since. I know what chronic pain and fatigue can feel like.
My prayers goes out to you both
Tennelle!!! you were my favourite as a kid!!!! i hope youre doing well
Best of luck in your future. We will be here waiting with patience. your health comes first.
hopefully if i can make all the notes on the kingdom hearts series i could show someone that is precious person to me someday. but like riku i've built a wall up around my heart an been pushing others away as well. from abuse to betrayal, this heart had it's fill on trying i don't think i could take anymore deception from others now hope you all are doing well and leave a comment below this after all. I've grown weary of trying to find love. after all i could of had my precious person once but had to let them go like riku is doing
tennelle!!! get well soon
I'm really sorry to hear about what's happening. You've both been favorite comfort streamers for me ever since I started college some years ago, and I look forward to watching you guys even if content slows down.
I recently started rewatching your FF7 Remake let's play to get hyped for Rebirth coming next year, and it's been a blast.
I really wish for nothing but the best for you too, and thank you sincerely for all the fun times and smiles you've given me. Looking forward to the future. ^^
I wanna give you two a hug... take all the time you need, I'm patient
(hugs) Tennelle I’m so sorry wishing for positive thoughts at the very least you have people around you who love you no matter what
I can only suggest possibly writing the creative thoughts down when you cannot draw or make videos
Stay safe and be well
I thought this was a warriors channel into I saw the videos and saw it actually isn’t that many of them
I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope you get better soon.
I'll still be here whenever you're able to post a video. I hope you feel better
You guys are favorites RUclipsr I love you feel Tennelle make videos when you two can
i really hope you get better. from the bottom of my heart, take care of yourself, even if it takes a while to come back. we'll be waiting
i'm a new member to patreon member now would like to join the discord server at some point
My mother had something similar, and she got better after time idk if it's the same here though
Regardless of what happens, I'll be there supporting in what way I can through Patreon. No matter how shite things may seem, or how much of a cunt life can be for you. I've got faith that all will be well.
Multiple sclerosis sucks too.
also i trying to make a list of videos to watch so i can hand the list to a friend to watch all the kingdom hearts has gay characters in the story
