Happy Birthday, Montana! You would be 31 today. You were 28 when we recorded this on February 15th, 2020. It was almost 9 years ago to the day when we recorded our first song together. That was the first time I met Montana Elliot, your endlessly powerful alter-ego, and I learned that I was actually recording a powerful laser beam that could split open reality and pull everyone in earshot into another world.
Grief eventually calcifies into a reduction. Images, words, and songs to compartmentalize the full human being we miss. We all need to do this to survive, because it’s impossible to replicate a soul. It can be scary to watch these concentrations and symbols of a person stack up, while real and cherished memories of them stay locked in to a fixed amount. It’s natural, required to heal, and understandably harrowing to navigate. Ultimately, it’s deeply comforting. It creates a language for all of us to remember you. Grief also means learning so much more about a person through fragments and memories that don’t belong to you. We’ve all become this incredible coalition of Montana Experts. We’re always researching you and sharing our findings with each other.
These connections and conversations are an essential reminder that none of us are broken for loving you so much. If we were broken our love would drain out and disappear, but we’ve been walking around with our hearts filled to the brim and we haven’t spilled a drop. We continue to pour all of our love for you, and all the love you have for us, into each other. Forever and ever.
YRICS:
Forever and ever and ever.
Woke up tangled up
In every charger that I've ever plugged in
Feeling capable
Of giving love I thought I once abandoned
The window was hot from the sun
And the trees make warmer colors Just to show how long we're lovers
Leaves live up to their namesake
I can wait
I can wait
For as long as it takes
Cause
Can't think of anyone else worth knowing
My hearts a cup that you filled up
And now it's overflowing
Your jawline pressing up to mine
Singing unison
On every line
Two people in love
Just screaming
There are things
Still worth believing in
Can we stay together
Forever and ever and ever
Woke up feeling good
Like any falling brick could bounce right off me
Feeling understood
Like maybe there are secret codes in melody
Twisting the radio knobs
Making static sounds just to turn you around
I see you smile from the back of your head
The most beautiful songs have a sense of humor I guess
Can't think of anyone else worth knowing
My hearts a cup that you filled up
And now it's overflowing
Your jawline pressing up to mine
Singing unison
On every line
Two people in love
Just screaming
There are things
Still worth believing in
Why can bad habits easily come back to life
When something healthy can just drive away at night
Why do I always feel like love is not enough
Why do I always feel like
It's not
Why do I always feel like love is not enough?

When there's someone you're devoted to/ you're always living with the trapdoor under you But I don't wanna run from you When there's no one you're afraid to lose/ you lose Yeah

do you have any tips for like... paneling? your lil comics, if i could call them that(?) with Dave are well made (to me at least) and I'd like to get into making comics! or if you know any resources that helped you. :') - sincerely, a beginner.
sorry to be answering this so late, wanted to try and give some kinda proper advice haha so what i do is i just make my posts as long as possible so that it takes up like all of ppls dash, this means they are forced to look at it and engage with it! no ok but for real, first off this is just how i do things and by no means any sort of proper tutorial or anything, most of this is prob kinda basic and intuitive stuff, but its good to be reminded of the basics and to notice why you might be doing said things intuitively so you can start doing it intentionally so how i approach things is by picking a focus panel whats the Punchline/Emotional pay off for the page/comic? and then i try and build the rest around that for actual Comics not every page is gonna have one of those ofcourse and thats fine i tend to often have to many focus panels,,,, lmao(which is why my posts end up so long,,,,) i try to group similar panels and make them smaller, it saves space, makes it so the attention goes to the more unique panels and makes things feel more sequential(or u can do like me and have too many similar panels and think, what if i just make it an animation, its just a few extra frames right,,,?<- clueless(i have done this twice now,,, the second is still a wip,,, )) heres one of my posts deconstructed using all this, id do more of them but i dont wanna make this even longer asdsd, but i think its pretty obvious to pick up on once you know the formula lol

after that i think its mostly just clear composition and flow so things dont get confusing(like what panel(also applies to text) youre suppose to read next and such(thats easier with this cus its usually just individual panels and not full pages)) edit: oh and resources that helped me, i mostly just looked at other comics, paying attention to how the paneling was effecting the story and mood! some comics ive looked at for paneling inspo are houseki no kuni, how they play with contrast and stuff, idk theyre all just very striking, i looked at ajin at some point as well for help with some action stuff, most action shonen are also great for that 2 so yeah, just find a comic scene that has the same vibe that youre trying to get and see how they did it, finding a few and comparing and contrasting what you feel works best thats my thought process while doing stuff at least! i hope this helps at least a bit haha
