I love this cover! i noticed the title and i looked it up, apparently a fictophile is someone who’s attracted to fictional characters throughout the video, Aveline is drawing the other guy a lot, and they tend to be in more romantic scenarios, but it’s obvious that that’s not exactly what he wants(?). It’s like Aveline is in love with a relationship that’s not real! It’s a cool little detail i wanted to mention!
another comment said this song might be about escapism using autistic imagination. the title makes a lot of sense this way, saying that that other character is literally just a figment of their imagination.
@@weirdibibfishiplop3644 although this would make sense, you can see the same guy in the crowd watching her at the start, and iirc he appears in other animation as well.
Just wanted to point out all the bird symbolism, and the shots of Aveline dancing in a cage, she's a caged bird. Seems like she has plenty of musical talent, but the poster says she's "the last voice on earth" so the show biz refuses to let go of her. They keep her chained with drugs and alcohol, and all the while she's in love with this mohawk dude. He doesn't feel the same, so he stays in her fantasies, just out of reach. There's also a poppy and candles 0:55 , has to be death of someone she cared about. That's all the surface stuff I can think of.
I thought the candle was still referencing to drugs since it's needed to cook heroin. And some poppy seed based-food can lead to postive urine drug test for opiates.
I'm shocked that almost no one in the comments is talking about all of the visual references to using heroin. At 0:58 for a split-second, you can see a spoon with bubbling liquid and a lighter underneath. Also, there is a quick shot of a syringe and bandages, and possibly a poppy flower (what heroin is made from). The main character here is also seen with injuries all over her arms at the end of the animation. Brilliant animation by the way. I think these visuals fit the theme of addiction to escape perfectly.
This song and animation really spoke to me. The animation and song are very nice. (Infodump warning) I'm autistic, and tend to have a rich inner world where I like to spend my time. A lot of the time I wish I could live there and daydream about being a character in whatever I'm reading/watching/creating. I can't quite put it into words, so all I'll say is this: Thank you for creating this, and I hope I'll be able to make something as brilliant someday.
She said it's not my fault That it all fell down So close your windows, lock your doors I can't help feeling I'm forgetting something You used to paint me pictures now You only paint my wall I'm worried that I've started something Built on lies and alcohol I want to sit down on the floor Become a worn out metaphor But still there's something, probably nothing That brings a phaser to my door I used to count the times that I've woken up past ten I tell myself what's done is done But I don't know what I'll drink next week again I suggest we let things rest Till I come down or until you drown Cause you're all I've got left in this town And I need time and you need wine So grab a jacket, grab your phone I've heard it's pretty cold outside I suggest we let things rest Till I come down or until you drown Cause you're all I've got left in this town And I need time and you need wine So grab a jacket, grab your phone I've heard it's pretty cold outside
they're the type of person you compare yourself to and you feel sad but you know you shouldnt feel sad but you still feel pretty sad about it either way
As someone who has practically lived off of fictional crushes for years... It can feel like a high when it hits just right, and it can get you through stressful times, but it can also feel so...emotional. Like you're standing in a wedding dress, sobbing, wishing for a future with someone who you can barely hug. This is a fantastic animation to stumble onto.

You know what time it is !!! Time to analyze: . At the beginning, "Aveline" (in quotes because I think Aveline represents you, or at least a part of you) is clearly a performer. She enjoys it, she's having a blast she's up in the air about it, getting drunk and being reckless. Around about 40 seconds, Aveline is trying to sleep cuz she needs to rest from this whole thing. However, she is dragged out of bed by a cane that kinda reminds me of a one that a Ring Leader would own, pulled back to perform when she really doesn't want to. Not too long after, she's on stage, and the attention that she thought she so enjoyed was overwhelming, too many people watching except one that was seen earlier, kinda looking apathetic? Bored? Whatever the emotion is, he doesn't give that same attention to Aveline like everyone else; however, you could argue that he doesn't really give her any attention at all, or at least not the type that she wants? Not too sure about that. Because in the video, he does give her attention on some romantic level, but it seems almost base level. She continues to perform tho it's wearing her out. She gets into some sort of relationship with the guy; she's getting attention but she's not getting the type she really needs. It hurts, she's in a wedding dress, she loves this dude so much like she could marry him, yet all he can do is give a blank face and hug her, and he isn't in a tux. The feelings are not mutual in terms of intensity. Also, he doesn't seem very talkative at all !! All she can do is keep on doing what she does even tho it's killing her on the inside. It's all she has left in this life of hers, and even though it hurts and it sucks, what else can she truly turn to, yk? _Fictophilia, fictosexuality and fictoromance - the intense and enduring emotional attachment, love, infatuation or desire that individuals experience for fictional characters._ I can see this in two ways. One, Aveline is attracted to someone (the guy) who is not real and is in her head. A figment of someone she can't even properly imagine but it gives her a very small semblance of balance in her life. But because he is not real, she knows she cannot truly be with him, which is why he is not very talkative or expressive, because those words and expressions would not be real, but god she wishes they were. Two, this person is real but not ... 'real' in the sense that they can properly have a connection. She just has an image of who this person really is and knows nothing else about them/cannot connect to them on a deeper level. They feel fictional. Fake. Real but fake. Either which way, though, this person is kind of an escape in a backhanded kind of way to run away from the reality of repetitive, draining, stressful performance. But ... yk. It's kinda backfired, I guess? From how I see her crying hard trying to get him to understand how she feels . Naturally, I will transpose this analysis to ... well, I think you know me well enough to know what it is I'm going to be thinking of with this information. Hat. Ik we have not spoken in a while but I still think about you, I'm glad you're still around, and I really hope that you can truly feel better. My discord is always open

This is such an incredible animation omg, I'm so happy it popped up in my recommended. I'm gonna go spend the next half hour watching this on repeat, don't mind me-
The terrifying, bittersweet embrace of a waking dream, in requiem. Always a cold reality- But perhaps a connection slowly creeping us further away from the material world, but far closer to a “truth”. Thank you for this. 😌
Yk, i posted a whole analysis and it just occurred to me that I never told you how i feel about the animation itself I've ben watching yo shit for the past 3 to 4 years (crazy), and every time you come out with something, there's something improved and more polished. The animation is literal eye candy and I'm proud of you
This is what i imagine a cartoon looks like in the Scott Pilgrim comics. Also HOLY SHIT fucking BEAUTIFUL art. Stellar animation. I love the character designs. This made my day as weird as that might sound.
i dont see enough comments talking about how smooth and detailed the video is!!! the cover is amazing and the animation style is so captivating! i love the camera movements ITS SO GOOD!!!!!
Ive been following your stuff for a decent while on reddit and when this got recommended to me i was shocked at how good it is, i never expected you'd be as good an animator as an artist. Keep up the amazing work!

YESSS FHSHGSGSGSHA /TwT\ God this was worth all the wait I love this so much, so rarely I get THIS feeling that just >,w,< thank you for your great work !!
Randomly found this channel and now I'm exploring your website, the amount of passion that went into this and some of the website I've explored made me so intrigue of your work! Definitely finding a song of yours I could cover!
I’ve rewatched this so many times in the past two days, the distinct art style, dynamic direction, fantastic song, smoother than butter animation, and beyond that a mastery of the art of storytelling. A minute and a half long masterpiece if you ask me!
Wow, I can’t do anything but admire this. I can’t even imagine the amount of work. Pardon my ignorance but I believe that if this was made by a single person (you, literalhat) it could have taken at least a year or something. (Tbh definitely more than that, since when have you been cooking this?). It is very nice.
First time i watched it i thought her relationship was real. but its strike me when i realize that he was fictional and she was all alone dying by overdosing. Man.
you put so much effort into your videos its admirable. i love your work so much, the vibes, the art, the animation, its literally amazing. i don't understand why you don't have a mil subs already, this is amazing.
ive watched this on loop so many times its so perfect from the cover to the way the hair is colored and how it transitions from one scene to another aaaaaaaa
fictophile is a- Intense attraction for sexual or romantic desirer towards fictional characters you can kinda see this in the song with the artist getting really stressed out about the band, so the cope with their own stress they're crushing on the fictional character being the spiked hair which you can see at the end on the drawings, think the name fits!!
this cover is so good- it keeps getting stuck in my head ever since it was first posted, i quite like it more than the original (not a diss, i just like the sound of this one better)
The animation for this is so cool. I love the bird and jail motifs, especially the way that the windows shadow near the start looks like jail bars. Birds are so frequently associated with freedom, and the way that she stares at the little dancing bird in the bath and later the bird is in the crosshairs? Delicious.
I have NO clue about any of the lore for these characters, but they animated the guitar correctly and this brings me so much joy
I don’t think there’s lore, I’m pretty sure they were made for this video

this cover is so good- it keeps getting stuck in my head ever since it was first posted, i quite like it more than the original (not a diss, i just like the sound of this one better)
I wonder, how can I be happy doing art when I never tried to be better at it
your art is so pretty!
Honestly want a full version, love this a ton either way.
I can't put to words how absolutely amazing this was!!!!! Holy shit your animations are awesome!
wow that is such a freaking cool style and the animation was crisp gawsh damn
I love the style of this animation so much!!
Loving the accurate barre chord shapes on that guitar
The animation for this is so cool. I love the bird and jail motifs, especially the way that the windows shadow near the start looks like jail bars. Birds are so frequently associated with freedom, and the way that she stares at the little dancing bird in the bath and later the bird is in the crosshairs? Delicious.
This is RIDICULOUSLY GOOD… I don’t even know if I can put into words how gorgeous this is
This is so beautifully animated… I’m kind of at a loss for words
Man this song hits hard
this is so insanely well animated
Ever since lies well said I've been hooked on your content. I can't wait to see what comes next for you!
to anyone wondering, around 1:19 is the time where you can see the frame where she has a gun to her head if you pause in time.
actually it seems as if someone is pointing a gun to her head
this video has been in my recommended five times now. It's about time I click on it. And holy shit I'm so glad I did this is so damn GOOD!!
