(sharing this early because timezones :p) happy happy birthday (and merry christmas) alba!! <33 <(-^>^-)> space to see the banner and space again for my sheet of notes - the audio will play automatically but if anyone wants to listen to only my part, it's inside the project! ❀ some details about the project (my note after this part) ~ much like some other people, I made you a banner xD but I hope you like it! I'm pretty proud of it, the pose (I like the hands hehe) and lights especially - and compared to the icon I made you for the contest like, half a year ago? I think I improved ^^' <3 (and I used the ref in your swc quiz, I'm not the best at shoes tho haha) and I kind of wanted to draw us together too, so I doodled us having some christmas fun :D now for the piano ~ asdfljk I'll try not to make this description too long xD I wanted to try some sort of backing track to your wonderful song, I've been working on it for a while and I think it turned out alright ^^' I hope you like it! the timing was very annoying but I hope it sounds alright (also I remixed your original since I couldn't get it to backpack the audio :p) I did some sort of different variation for each part of the song, press space to see my sheet of notes xD about the harmony in verse 2 - I was originally going to do this for more verses, I tried recording a 3-note harmony (chord/triad) for the bridge but it sort of failed and the timing was so annoying ^^' so yeah, now we're left with v2 but hopefully it still sounds okay :) <333 ❀ alrighty now for the (cheesy) note >:D alba, thank you so much for being one of my closest friends - I can't believe it's been like, seven or eight-ish months since we first met? I still remember stumbling upon your profile when you started this account and marveling at your singing :0 thank you for our long conversations in which we asked each other very random questions, introducing me to swc, and so much more <3 you are such a kindhearted, talented and all-around wonderful person and friend ^^ I'm sorry we haven't been able to chat much lately - I suppose we've both been quite busy (especially during swc - thank you for the hard work you put into it!), but hopefully we'll be able to do so soon <333 happy sixteen! ilysm, sea <3 (don't forget I'm always here to talk or chat about anything if you need to!) ❀ credits :D character belongs to @-alocasia, art in the project by me "still got time" is by , and piano track played (I want to say composed, but that was not a composition so - planned?) by me ^^
