It Didn't Have To Be This Way... [flash animation]

this is based off these images by
www.deviantart.com/art/Who-cou…
www.deviantart.com/art/You-are…

so this is a short little animation that i crafted after i saw the to images above...

the first image was one that my friend made for my birthday, he is an amazing sfm artist who knows that mangle is my favorite...

so when i saw the pics it already had an effect on me just knowing that they were made for me...
the pics themselves are actually quite emotional for being just still images... so i got to thinking while i was working on other stuff at night what is the backstory to these pics...

so i stopped what i was doing and decided to actually animate this... 
at first i was not going to post this to DA... i had it stashed with all of my other unposted animations... but i did show it to  
he convinced me to post it because he thought it went well wih his pics and that it was quite well made...


anyways just enjoy this animation while i work on other things

and remember to stay awesome
