:: The same figure in black is currently trying to dig the YnM van out of a snowbank::

Sorry I haven't been posting much after that flurry of posts at the beginning of the month: I've had a rough time due to personal stuff, but I'll try and post a few more things in the time I have left (and I may apply to rec more in a month when my day-job in retail isn't eating me alive).

And those recs include several fanvids which I'll post accordingly:

Fandom: YAMI NO MATSUEI
Music: "Starry Night (Vincent)" by Don McLean
Pairing: Hints of Tsuzuki/Hisoka
Length: 4:16

Why this vid kicks ass:
This is one of my all time favorite songs (and I have to admit, I relate to both the subject of the song and the main character in the clips, given my own struggles with my own inner demons), thus finding that someone had fan-vidded it using YnM clips, well, I was on it like Tsuzuki on a dessert cart. The editing on this is sublime and the timing is just breath-taking. The clips fit the lyrics seamlessly: I was crying real tears at how well they fit Tsuzuki's life, death, and afterlife. By the time it got up to "a silver thorn/A bloody rose" and the *very* fitting clips that went with it, I was crying my eyes out in a good way!
