FILL: Team John<3Rose

Rec 1: The Frost Witch and the Lady of Thorns
Team: Jade<3Rose
Creator: magpizza
Why I’m recommending it: As cliché as it sounds and just got sucked into this story and trapped there and couldn't move until it was done. It was beautiful, the scatters of their past, the descriptions of Jade growing frail, her plant still growing. The art too was stunning and fitting too. The mood was also fantastic, making me feel sad yet not a tear-jerking-fake-tears kind of way, which doesn't happen often. A+++!!!

Rec 2: Siren's Song
Team: Jade<3Feferi
Creator: OliviaMacabre
Why I’m recommending it: Not many teams submitted videos or songs for any of the prompts (of course there were a few very beautiful ones!) so I loved seeing this combo show up in Round 2. It's a very beautiful atmosphere the art, song, sound of the sea and the voice bring. It would not be nearly as good with any of those elements missing. Not to mention it stayed with the prompt of 'monster' but still kept the romantic feeling of it -- quite impressive given how short the video is! A very very wonderful entry! :D

Rec 3: Sweet, Salty, Sour
Team: ALCHEM: Parcelpyxis
Creator: Veebox
Why I’m recommending it: An extremely beautiful work of writing. I felt it was really fleshed out and tons of different aspects were brought into the story. I loved Vriska and Feferis relationship -- it was really sweet and heart warming even with the hardships they are going through. Although my favourite part of the whole story was learning about Eridan and Feferi's past. That was the straw that broke the camels back, if the camel was my heart.
