Anyways, the video is a semi-mushy story about Zelgadis and Amelia of Slayers (with a couple cameos from other characters), and is pretty much the end result of way too much fanfic reading and AMV watching/making. And for the record, Slayers is not a romance - I know this. However, it has fairly obvious pairings and a good amount of romancy hints thrown around throughout the series. As it is, I seem to be drawn to these types of romances: ones that aren't the focus, but are subtley there. I think I just have fun looking for hints. No matter. At any rate, this 'subtlety' doesn't mean I can't go out on a limb and make a sappy video to satisfy my inner romantic. And therefore, that's precisely what I did. I just hope others can enjoy it as well.
For Slayers fans out there, I'm not exactly sure on the timeline. I hadn't watched Revolution or Evolution-R yet when I started this (I have now and I love them, despite the... glancing over of Z/A) so this was originally intended to be maybe a year or so after Try. Which would make it sort of an 'alternate timeline' to Revolution. Having watched the new seasons however, I'm tempted to say that this takes place after Try but BEFORE Revolution, and that Zel and Amelia are officially (and secretly) together. So 'bodyguard' is just code for 'husband' in my mind.
I must say, I'm quite proud of this video! And amazed that I actually finished.
