It follows one of the background Dark Forest characters, maybe Sparrowfeather, seeing as she's one of the girls and we need more girl villain maps that's not just about Mapleshade (though I do love her).
The story is where Sparrowfeather dies and joins the Dark Forest, but doesn't believe she belongs there. The other residences (mostly OCs because that's always fun) are like "no, we're all messed up killers, and so are you."
Maybe it follows them pointing out events in her life, like watching in a puddle the things she did (which also shows the viewer her story through that lens)
Because the chorus is "just like the rest of us," maybe the other characters somehow show their stories? Like maybe they show their crime right after showing Sparrowfeather's and they're like "see? we're both killers."
Or, if it follows my D.F Eye AU, they would show that. They would point to their eye, flashback to their murder, point to Sparrowfeather's eyes (maybe show her in a reflection) and flashback to her murder--in either case, it shows part of her story.
We could go further
The song has a theme of "you can pretend to be neat and wear a suit, but we know it's a facade" to be like "everyone always wanted to be the perfect Clanmate, but here we don't care, we're all messed up and we're all free."
Finally finished this lil pmv I started in November 2021 featuring Willowshine and Snowtuft (and Ashfur for a moment). Since she was the one to deliver the news of his demise, I had the idea of her being there in his last moments. I also imagine that it would be pretty terrifying to realize that you too could die a second time, not knowing if there's something next.
YouTube link will be in reblogs for anyone who wants better quality, or to support my channel!
Quick pmv based on a event that happened in my latest playthrough of ClanGen
lore under the cut
Antler and SilverNeedle are the healers of SongClan, that is until SilverNeedle's body is found at the bottom of a pit, flayed over the rocks bellow, most assume it was an accident but Antler knows the truth
One day, when SongClan's leader, TawnyStar, is looking over the same cliff that SilverNeedle had died in so many moons ago, Antler gives them a taste of their own medicine
You ever listen to a song and become so frustrated because it鈥檚 just so good and you can perfectly visualize a map / pmv throughout the whole thing but you can鈥檛 animate so it has to stay in your head?
Anyways Shankill Butchers by The Decemberists but it鈥檚 Rainstar having a nightmare about Alderstar and Myrtlewing
