Fallen
Fandom: Due South
RayK-centric, F/K
Warnings: Rated C for Callum. Ultimately slashy, especially in the Goldilocks and the Three Mounties part, but also het warning for Stella and angst warning for...well the whole vid, but the Beth Botrelle part in particular.

So I finally made another vid!
::hears crickets chirping::
Well, I know it *has* been a while since my last one. I did this one in about a week as well on my shiny new laptop. This vid also ate my brain. It is a RayK angst vid, supplanting the Dief angst vid in my vid-making lineup. (Thank God. I mean even I was having trouble taking that idea seriously.)
I am happier technically with this vid than the last one, but I am not as happy with the narrative structure, or lack thereof. I tried to tell a lot of stories in this vid, and I'm not so sure that what came out couldn't be interpreted in many other ways than the one I was going for. Anyway, I was going for (in the Fraser section), Ray gaining back his power by evening the score with the second punch and then going off on the honeymoon with Fraser happy because he's treated as an equal and isn't fucking up so much anymore. But really any interpretation you want to make is also valid. That's why vids (and fandom in general, and, you know, literary theory) are so interesting to me.
Lyrics:
Artist: Sarah McLachlan
Song: Fallen
Heaven bent to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight
Truth be told I've tried my best
But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear
Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I've messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
We all begin with good intent
When love was raw and young
We believed that we could change ourselves
The past could be undone
But we carry on our backs the burden
Time always reveals
In the lonely light of morning
In the wound that would not heal
It's the bitter taste of losing everything
That I have held so dear.
I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I've messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
Heaven bent to take my hand
Nowhere left to turn
I'm lost to those I thought were friends
To everyone I know
Oh they turned their heads embarassed
Pretend that they don't see
But it's one missed step
One slip before you know it
And there doesn't seem a way to be redeemed
Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I've messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
I've messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...
