It’s from the show’s soundtrack, “Ties That Bind” by Sunna Wehrmeijer. I did have to edit it to match the scene. Q: Is this a part of the Don’t Go Project (twitter/dontgoproject)? Kind of no. I started making this before I joined the group. I am part of the project, but I have not been involved in the art process (I am only a Korean translator at the moment).

Please try to share the original post URL first, and ask for permission before downloading and posting yourself. Q: Why is there so much awkward staring and silence? Sometimes silence is deafening, no? Q: Will you be making more of these? Current plan is… No. Most likely not. It takes a lot of time, which I do not have as a full-time working adult...

Gay means a boy likes a boy. So if you called a girl gay it would kinda be calling them straight. Sorry if this sounds rude I just wanted to point it out.
Ct 1578 Yeah if you wanna read it here archiveofourown.org/works/24280306 Also this animatic is a part of a huge animation project called don’t go so basically the person doing this and others are in one group trying to animate what noelle wrote so stayed tuned for that I guess?
This should've been a episode in itself. Just these two, finally together, no horde, no sword or she-ra, no fighting. Just sitting and taking in each other's existence. Just being there for each other after they both nearly died. Healing emotionally, mentally, and physically. Just being there, existing in peace for once .
I would’ve loved an episode like that, especially one where we see Catra trying to make up for the things she’s done. Even just a silly episode with her doing the absolute maximum to prove that she can help would’ve been nice. I just feel like her “redemption arc” was too short, and I believe it should’ve started before season 5.
I agree. I think the main reason why they didn't do that is because it is still a kids show, and they may have faced criticism for that unfortunately :/
Did anyone else enjoy the silence between these two like their just acknowledging each other's existence it's just them there is no prime, no she ra, no sword, no trying to kill each other Just them relaxing in one others presence
I wanted to convey the ambiance of the inside of the spaceship, so I recorded the sound of my air conditioner going on and manipulated the audio to create that haha
@@kangkanghj As much as I liked AJ and Aimee reading the original script of the confession scene, it would have been cooler if they read that fanfic. Then you could have put their audio onto this animation you did. But the voice acting you did was decent as well, it got across the already heartwarming/heartbreaking interaction they had.
This general vibe isn't common in the show, but I *LOVED* it. The slowness, the silence, the intimacy, it's *PERFECT* for a drama type vibe. And the music work was brilliant. Great work!
ADORA: *Gives a dramatic proclamation that she never wants Catra to leave while cuddling with their faces like, two inches apart. ALSO ADORA: We're such good friends Catra!
Ngl i LOVE the "i know a sorry does'nt fix everything, if you want me to leave, i'll leave." Its great improvement that she would be able to agknolige what terrible things she's done and being able to acsept to leave her be. 👍
Not gonna lie, scenes like this with such raw emotional vulnerability on both sides are more satisfying than big, dramatic finale kisses. This is real, and conveys the love they feel for each other far better in my opinion. I don't care if they technically didn't put it in the show, or it's 'just a fanfic'. It's good shiet and Imma say it's canon for me.
Ok, I've been camping enough to know the dead of night quiet intimacy vibe, and I feel like everything from the visuals to the voice acting landed it very well. Good work
you know. Noelle says that through the 5 seasons, from ep1s1 to the last at the end of s5, 3 years had passed. And the way they where talking about being gone for so long when they showed up to the resistance camp from returning from space, they made some statements that they where gone for 'too long' it honestly might have been MONTHS of space travel from planet to planet. and the recuperation Catra took from near-death to bright eyes, shagging hair, and her cocky attitude wasnt overnight. The start of seeing Catra try to similate to the squad was seen at the end of that episode eating a dumpling(?). so. Im sure it would have still been awkward here and there for a while. SO... things like THIS, should have been completely possible.
I think that if there is something in which this show is not exceling, it's portraying the passage of time, I mean it's not done badly by any mean, but it's just hard to spot and the show doesn't give you many reference points for what happened how long ago. I think that part of the problem is that the show doesn't show things like traveling or non plot related activities very often, so it can feel like events take place very soon one after another - though this is understandable, as the show had to pack so much story and narative into each 24 ( ish ) minutes episode, so I get that there was not a lot of time that could be used for that, though still I think it's a shame, I would have loved to see more of the Catra / Adora relation before and even after the finale. It's a shame they didn't extend the last episode a bit and show more of the aftermath of the whole thing, but the finale they went with is really good as well.
Here's the fic that this is based on, (Chance of it being written by Noelle under a pseudonym 99.94%) archiveofourown.org/works/24280306 It is fully worth reading, it explains a lot of stuff that happens before/during/after Episode 6 Season 5, "taking control", like why Catra is suddenly so comfortable with being with them that she had no qualms about jumping onto Adora's lap next episode.
@@nugget2007 You're in luck! the Don't Go project on Twitter is actually fairly well on the way to animating the whole story, the animator who did the scene above is one of the storyboarder/Animators for it :) (here's a link to their twitter, they provide updates fairly regularly.) twitter.com/dontgoproject And they are pretty far along with their work. they've been working like crazy since early june!
Slow blinking in cats means 'i love you'. So when catra was slow blinking in this she was either slow blinking at adora to secretly tell her she loves her OR shes just sleepy xD good animatic btw. Great work all around 💚
In the fanfic noelle wrote that this is based on it says something like "I wonder if she remembers what this means" while catra slow blinked so yes it was supposed to be the "I love you" cat blink and I love it so much
This took a lot of time, effort, patience, planning and love. I can tell. It hit me square between the eyes and made everything slow down for a few minutes. Took me back to when I first watched season 5 and every feeling that has stuck around since. I didn't know my withered old heart needed this. So. Thank you. -J
I absolutely love this so much! I feel so happy to actually see this animated. The voice acting didn't bother me, I quite liked it! The art was amazing and literally spot on with character designs.
Since we couldn't have this in the show, maybe it can b a flashback in the (eventual & inevitable) She-Ra movie (Tho lets b honest, we all want it 4 the Catradora content rather than She-Ra content!)
I want a She-ra movie that will eventually and inevitably start off the story of the renewed He - man because let's face it Adam trained his whole life to defeat Horde Prime only for him to locate his last known where abouts and seeing that his inexperienced twin sister beat him to it. Making him lose his like whole source of purpose and honor then blah blah happy times then NEW VILLAIN and ANGST!!!!
OH MY GOSH THIS WAS SO AMAZING!!! THE ART IS AMAZING, THE SCRIPT WAS AMAZING AND THE VOICES ARE AMAZING!!!!! AAAHHHHHH also, adora's eyes are pokeballs lol
This is the kinda relationship I wish to have with someone whether it’s romantic or platonic. The atmosphere isn’t awkward but it isn’t completely normal either, it’s neutral. You always have that one person that you’re really close with no matter their status, like as in a partner or a best friend that you’d do anything for, like Catra and Adora. Adora recognizes that Catra has been hurt severely and even though she doesn’t know how to help completely she’s there for her. People cope in different ways and even though Catra won’t admit it it seems as though she loves to cuddle, feel close to someone, feel protected. This comic dub is beautiful and is written with real emotion.
Ruth Flames frrr but i loved it either way, the detail was so good like the way her hair and eyes faded over time :((( pretty inspiring for piano players too lolll
Hey ! I finished watching She-Ra yesterday, and I just read this piece before coming here - you made me bawl just like the actual episode. I loved how slow and quiet this is as they both reflect on their emotions, and adding the music was a fantastic touch. Thank you for making a visual for that scene
This isn't canon it's a fanfic This isn't canon right? This probably isn't canon Maybe this is canon Please let this be canon This is canon I don't care And that was my experience watching this like 9 times
It's from a short story/deleted scene that Noelle Stephenson wrote. It happens between episodes 5 and 6 of season 5, I believe. Since it's from Nicole herself, it's canon.
@@kingerkai885 same, but I understand why she didn't...the ptsd and then all that...m glad that its there as a writing and there's a project going on to turn the whole thing into animation.
It would've been nice if this scene was in the show, i think it would add more to the story. We do see Catra struggling to be a better person, she isn't sure how she can take this kindness when she almost to the pointy of insanity destroyed every single relationship she had with other people. She isn't sure if she is even allowed to be near Adora's radius, It probably felt nauseating for her just to looking at her since guilt ate her alive.
4:42 UGGGHHH!!!!! When that music played that was IT! 😭😭😭 I've watched this 3 times now & I STILL get those Damn misty eyes & lump in my throat! If we can find a way 4 Noelle 2 c this or even AJ Michalka &/or Aimee Carrero that'll b TRUE Triumph!
Wow, this is such an amazing piece of work.... like the expressions are all sooo good, and the camera work too is just *chef's kiss!*. the little details in the expressions (especially during Catra's apology) are sooo amazing :) PS Here is part one, if anyone who sees this hasn't seen the original; th-cam.com/video/FKS3wURC54U/w-d-xo.html
@@sydney4814 Most of the sound effects were recorded by me as well (there were a few sounds I had to get elsewhere)! I had to manipulate the She Ra OST so that there would be greater pauses between sections and repeats for timing sake (which I think was one of the most difficult parts of compiling this video ahaha)
@@kangkanghj I know you said you did the Sound Effects on Twitter, and you did a great job with the music editing too :) And I think you are too harsh on your Voice Acting skills on Twitter, Catra's lines during her apology are all said so sweetly, and Adora's lines too, my favorites are when she gets her hand caught by Catra and asks if she could stay.
@@sydney4814 Aw, thank you so much. I guess these animatics were my first try at voicing, so I wasn't feeling all too confident on how it would be received. Thank you for the supportive feedbacks!!!
kangkangHJ I gotta be honest, I keep replaying Catra saying “hey Adora”. The tired way she says it is just so... real. The way she just sounds so exhausted in this whole thing is just... it sets the mood for this so well.
i just had to see it twice, there's something about this scene that just feels... right. It's such a good animatic! Thank you for bringing it to life i loved it so much! Edit: three times now

And the way they where talking about being gone for so long when they showed up to the resistance camp from returning from space, they made some statements that they where gone for 'too long'
it honestly might have been MONTHS of space travel from planet to planet. and the recuperation Catra took from near-death to bright eyes, shagging hair, and her cocky attitude wasnt overnight.

FR💀💀💀😭😭😭
4:49 that’s it. That’s the moment I started crying.
I almost cried
I don't know why but this video gives me so much comfort. I always watch it before I go to sleep
I feel like I’m third wheeling by watching them👁👄👁
Ye me to
*3rd wheeling intensifies*
Same
Bruh same-
Like eeeeh my ship but also sh-should I go do you want privacy or something
Catra- "Adora...don't be a idiot"
Adora- *"You are not my mom!"*
This took a lot of time, effort, patience, planning and love. I can tell. It hit me square between the eyes and made everything slow down for a few minutes. Took me back to when I first watched season 5 and every feeling that has stuck around since.
I didn't know my withered old heart needed this.
So. Thank you.

Thank you for the heartfelt comment! I'm glad this was enjoyable and that it made you feel great emotions!!
@@kangkanghj You're welcome. :)
I absolutely love this so much! I feel so happy to actually see this animated. The voice acting didn't bother me, I quite liked it! The art was amazing and literally spot on with character designs.
I would just love too see bow and glimmer walk in and see them snuggling
Lol, Didnt Adora Say That They Were Making Out?
- the ppl who walked in: Slowly walks out
@@shimmy6215 true
the little tail moves-
i'm obsessed
Since we couldn't have this in the show, maybe it can b a flashback in the (eventual & inevitable) She-Ra movie
(Tho lets b honest, we all want it 4 the Catradora content rather than She-Ra content!)
I want a She-ra movie that will eventually and inevitably start off the story of the renewed He - man because let's face it Adam trained his whole life to defeat Horde Prime only for him to locate his last known where abouts and seeing that his inexperienced twin sister beat him to it. Making him lose his like whole source of purpose and honor then blah blah happy times then NEW VILLAIN and ANGST!!!!
Why not both? I want both Catdora bonus content and RaRa goodness
*I WANT A SHE-RA MOVIE FOR ENTRAPTADAK*
@@raytheartistofrandom_123 Shera/Catra
OH MY GOSH THIS WAS SO AMAZING!!! THE ART IS AMAZING, THE SCRIPT WAS AMAZING AND THE VOICES ARE AMAZING!!!!! AAAHHHHHH
also, adora's eyes are pokeballs lol
I'm eating my pizza sobbing.
This is a big mood
Same except I’m eating the air
@@pencilRC1 how that air taste?
Tokoyamis Dark shadow delicious
@@pencilRC1 👌
Carta patting the bed is too cute!!! This is so amazingly done
Adora during the whole video:
👁👄👁, 👁_👁, ➖_➖, 👁_👁👍
And why so many likes!? xd
🤣🤣
Pretty much, yeah!!!
Also Adora:........wow.
Omfg xDDDDDDDD
Lmao🤣🤣🤣
5:41
Awww I love Catra’s purrs
I’m gonna go cry now-
The story is so patient i love it
this is just so sweet im combusting
This is the kinda relationship I wish to have with someone whether it’s romantic or platonic. The atmosphere isn’t awkward but it isn’t completely normal either, it’s neutral. You always have that one person that you’re really close with no matter their status, like as in a partner or a best friend that you’d do anything for, like Catra and Adora. Adora recognizes that Catra has been hurt severely and even though she doesn’t know how to help completely she’s there for her. People cope in different ways and even though Catra won’t admit it it seems as though she loves to cuddle, feel close to someone, feel protected. This comic dub is beautiful and is written with real emotion.
This is made me cry :’) so beautiful done, thank you for doing this, it’s so incredible 🖤
I love the awkward silent stare😂
The 🌔 🌖 eyes
The fact that Noelle said that this was a cut scene from the show makes me cry so fucking much
"BOW AND GLIMMER ARE MAKING OU-" WHAAAAA-
i clicked the link to the fic and then i realized it was noelle’s and i just
Aweee thank you so much for making this! Absolutely loved it :D
This is so beautiful, I'm in tears thank you for this
what is your pfp from, i think i recognize it but idk lol
also fellow dreamcatcher fan!!
@@itsmexoxurmom It's Kaori from the anime your lie in April, and hey nice to meet ya fellow InSomnia
Ruth Flames oh yeah it’s been a while since i’ve watched it :’(((((
@@itsmexoxurmom same here, it's just really heartbreaking :"(
Ruth Flames frrr but i loved it either way, the detail was so good like the way her hair and eyes faded over time :((( pretty inspiring for piano players too lolll
Hey ! I finished watching She-Ra yesterday, and I just read this piece before coming here - you made me bawl just like the actual episode. I loved how slow and quiet this is as they both reflect on their emotions, and adding the music was a fantastic touch. Thank you for making a visual for that scene
You can already tell this happened it's just a deleted scene :>
Stop it this is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen in my life
This is actually amazing! Thank you so much, I didn't know how much I needed this lol
I love how catra admits what she did and the atrocities she's committed for the horde and the remorse she's expressing to adora
You know its funny... This is how it would sound like in their head... No music... No drama soundefects
THIS IS CANON. CANON. CANON. CANON.
Why doesn't it have more likes?? It's a masterpiece made me cry it's so soft and beautiful
1:41 I just noticed this Adora says wow right here after Catra says the bed is huge.
This isn't canon it's a fanfic
This isn't canon right?
This probably isn't canon
Maybe this is canon
Please let this be canon
This is canon I don't care
And that was my experience watching this like 9 times
It's from a short story/deleted scene that Noelle Stephenson wrote. It happens between episodes 5 and 6 of season 5, I believe. Since it's from Nicole herself, it's canon.
Noella wrote this. Besides, she wanted to add this. This is basically considered to be a deleted scene. So yeah its canon
@@joon9546 I really wish they added it because omg I would be so happy
@@kingerkai885 same, but I understand why she didn't...the ptsd and then all that...m glad that its there as a writing and there's a project going on to turn the whole thing into animation.
I mean, I'm assuming a fanfic written under a pseudonym by the main producer is canon right?
I love that you use the music like in the SHE-RA serie when it’s “those moments”❤❤❤ 4:43
im literally in tears, thank you for this, it's so beautiful
adora looks like she has hearts in her eyes.
Catra: purrr
Me: 🥺🥺🥺💖💗💝💓💝💖💗💝💞💝💓💝💞
It would've been nice if this scene was in the show, i think it would add more to the story. We do see Catra struggling to be a better person, she isn't sure how she can take this kindness when she almost to the pointy of insanity destroyed every single relationship she had with other people. She isn't sure if she is even allowed to be near Adora's radius, It probably felt nauseating for her just to looking at her since guilt ate her alive.
4:42 UGGGHHH!!!!! When that music played that was IT! 😭😭😭
I've watched this 3 times now & I STILL get those Damn misty eyes & lump in my throat!
If we can find a way 4 Noelle 2 c this or even AJ Michalka &/or Aimee Carrero that'll b TRUE Triumph!
Noelle wrote this fic so
The music fucking killed me in the best possible way
The pur at the end is everything ❤❤❤
Wow when that music started, the flood gates opened. Great job!
Omg I love this!! It would’ve been so cool if it was an actual scene in the show 👍🏾
Yasssss❤❤❤❤ I. Agree
Wow, this is such an amazing piece of work.... like the expressions are all sooo good, and the camera work too is just *chef's kiss!*. the little details in the expressions (especially during Catra's apology) are sooo amazing :)
PS
Here is part one, if anyone who sees this hasn't seen the original;

3 years later and i still love this
The animation is incredible BUT THE KISS IS REALY NEEDED PLS

This was beautiful. Really. I nearly cry. And the drawing, the voice actresses, the sounds and music were perfect 👌
The actor is the animator, she did everything herself! the music is the one thing that isn't hers, the music is from the She Ra OST.
@@sydney4814 Most of the sound effects were recorded by me as well (there were a few sounds I had to get elsewhere)! I had to manipulate the She Ra OST so that there would be greater pauses between sections and repeats for timing sake (which I think was one of the most difficult parts of compiling this video ahaha)
@@kangkanghj I know you said you did the Sound Effects on Twitter, and you did a great job with the music editing too :) And I think you are too harsh on your Voice Acting skills on Twitter, Catra's lines during her apology are all said so sweetly, and Adora's lines too, my favorites are when she gets her hand caught by Catra and asks if she could stay.
@@sydney4814 Aw, thank you so much. I guess these animatics were my first try at voicing, so I wasn't feeling all too confident on how it would be received. Thank you for the supportive feedbacks!!!
kangkangHJ I gotta be honest, I keep replaying Catra saying “hey Adora”. The tired way she says it is just so... real. The way she just sounds so exhausted in this whole thing is just... it sets the mood for this so well.
i just had to see it twice, there's something about this scene that just feels... right. It's such a good animatic! Thank you for bringing it to life i loved it so much!
Edit: three times now
that 1 dislike, homophobe LOL
It's Shadow Weaver disapproving this ship
Hmm must be Horde prime.

xddd
kangkangHJ now it’s shadow weaver, horde prime, and one of the clones
