[Ready As I'll Ever Be]- Sanders Sides Animatic[[NOT FOR KIDS]]

[EDIT] for all the ppl asking in the comments, the [[NOT FOR KIDS]] in the title is because of youtube's new policy regarding kid's content, which was vague and included "anything kids might like/enjoy" and i didnt wanna risk a COPPA violation cause this animatic includes a disney song

hey! hi! longtime no see! so while i have several animatics in my wip folder, this is the only one i felt motivated to finish and have been working on and off on it for little more than a week now. im not entirely happy with it, there are some parts in both the drawing and editing i wish were better, but overall im happy with the final product(more than anything im just glad to finally be done with it).

[story:

set in medieval/magical world or something and Thomas is king. Roman was born a simple peasant, but always dreamed of being a dashing prince, but since he doesnt have an ounce of royal blood in him the closest thing he can get to a prince is to become a knight. so he does and, eventually, becomes thomas' most trusted knight and close friend. one day while out wandering the woods roman stumbles upon a suspicious looking man with yellow eyes and scales who compliments roman, singing his praises and promising him all of his wildest hopes and dreams, "you can be royal too, rule your very own kingdom" "...ill be a prince?" "your majesty, you will be /king/"

so the stranger gives roman roses, more than a dozen of beautiful red ones, and tell him to pass them out to everyone he meets. "the people will love you" the man says "a king needs loyal people" so roman does, and the people really do love him. but a couple of weeks later the snake man approaches roman with a crown of red roses and sharp thorns "every king needs a crown" but the moment he places it on his head the thorns dig into his skin. the roses drain of their vibrant red hue until they're pitch black. anyone who'd accidentally been pricked by the roses he gave them fall into a zombie like daze. the perfect obedient people. "i promised you a kingdom, i never said id give you a entirely new one"

so roman becomes twisted, kingnaps thomas and takes full control of the castle. anyone not affected by the roses flees, including royal adviser logan and two castle staff incredibly close to the crown, patton and virgil. the remaining forces of thomas' kingdom gather on the outskirts of the palace and virgil, a close 'friend' of romans' since childhood who's desperate to get him back, leads the charge to take back the castle.]

but ive been rambling enough, hope you enjoy!

Two things:

1) Roman puts on Deceit's cape!!!!
2) Virgil wears Roman's sash as a scarf!!!

[sammi_star]

Virgil: we need Roman back
Logan: why?
Virgil: cause you and Patton both have glasses and I’m outnumbered
Patton: K let’s go!

[dazaiosamu]

Roman: *eyes turn yellow*

Me: *screech* DECEIT *falls off of bed* NO WONDER PATTON SEEMED A BIT ANGRY

[wzzibfl]

THOMAS
NEEDS
TO SEE
THIS
NOW.

thank you for coming to my ted-talk.

[missusblanc]

Vergil: Deceit, there's only one angsty baby here and that's me. Now I'm here to kick ass and bring me back my boyfriend

[DaniriDanna]

I'm still losing my shit over that ending. I love this so much
The fact that Roman eyes change to Deceit eyes is such an incredibly subtle detail over what happens in the story. And Virgil using Roman old stash as a scarf to try and get his friend back, even if getting him back means fighting him.
Oh my goodness. You are honestly so increadibly talented

[FlipperSkipp]

Roman: I wish people would draw me more...
*This*
Roman:...
Roman: I feel like I shouldn't have to have been more specific, yet here we are.




This is great, I'm screaming

[LoreTheRacoon]

I was in the middle of musical rehearsal when i saw the end of this i legit screamed"FALSEHOOD" only for like have my theater troop to understand my reference

[renataapatataa]

Also 1:42 when Patton says family I had to pause and sob they all looked so happy together

[MelloJelloo]

I JUST REALIZED THAT VIRGIL IS WEARING ROMAN'S SASH AS A SCARF AND I IMMEDIATELY STARTED CRYING, THIS IS SO GOOD!! I WANT A BOOK OF THIS.

[nesrynthesloth]

You gotta admit, Roman looks killer in a floor crown

(Psst, Virgil, you’re wearing the sash wrong)

[Gabriela-tuzy]

Who else wants this to be a complete fanfic, or movie.

[konansupernova]

I love Thomas's mildly disappointed expression at 0:31 lmao

[hello]

THE YELLOW EYES AT THE END IM SCREAMING

[Infectionspread]

Personally I love this sander aides anamatic because A) Virgil isn't the villain B) You can tell which character is which without making each look completely different which is amazing. C) The story isn't cringy it actually makes sense D) it has an amazing art style and I just love it! (( also Z) *DECIET!* ))

[strawberryroses]

Roman: **Wears black cape**

Me: Deceit??

Roman: **Eyes become yellow**

Me: dECEIT-

[ewabiernat]

yellow, singular striped eyes in 2014: cipher
yellow, singular striped eyes in 2018: deceit

[snowflakegirl]

"I'll make them hear me"
