ETA: It would probably help if I included the link, wouldn't it? Fixed.


Title: Dustland Fairytale
Artist: sholio
Spoilers: Through the end of season 2
Characters: Neal, Kate, Peter, Fowler, Adler
Pairings: Neal/Kate
Warning: None
Summary: The story of Neal, Kate and Adler.
Why rec'd?: This vid is beautiful and heartbreaking. It's the story of of Neal and Kate, yes, but it's even more about how Neal saw their story. Even more, Sholio shows us that it's not just their story. Peter, Adler, and others weave themselves into the narrative, their presence inescapable.

If you like Neal/Kate, then this is a real treat because there's not much out there for them. If you're not a Neal/Kate fan, then this vid will make you buy the relationship. No, really, there are comments that say exactly that.

But I think the part the hits me hardest is the ending.



The way the vid ends on the scene where Neal and Kate finally get together is perfect and illuminates the tragedy far strongly than anything else could. Because this is the moment where everything feels right and anything is possible, and yet their beginning is also the end. It makes the tears well up every time.
