Making Something- What Should I include? (If anything)

I got the urge to record and edit videos again (after a long hiatus) and decided to commit to this. I decided to make the focus on Love and Deepspaces "recycling" discussions (using Valko as a main vocal point but I do bring up and compare the other Li's too).

I got feedback for the first edited version already but I do want to make some changes and add some things before I finalize the video and upload it officially.

Currently I have these sections:

- Defining a "recycled character"

- Talking about LADs' "design language"

- What makes up Valko's character? (Discussing what we know)

- What is recycled? (Looks over animation similarities but I also am adding character design and dialogue similarities too with the upcoming draft)

- Concept claiming (discussing about characters "claiming" certain ideas, motifs, etc)

The main message of the video is to talk about how despite similarities many of the love interests may have, the context and meaning behind each action and piece of imagery is what makes them unique-- and that only when things have the same context is when something can be established as "copied/recycled".

I know the topic might be a bit niche and might not be for everyone, but I feel like it's something very relevant with Love and Deepspace- especially with everything going on atm.

Any ideas on what I could add to it or what I could expand upon? (If I should add anything else to it?) I know I'm being a bit vague- but I also want to try and not make this post any longer than it already is. Any suggestions would be great 👍

Tumor, sick, or just chonky?

This duck came by yesterday and now today with the same big gullet.

Kinda is worrying since they've been acting a little slow compared to the other ducks (they even stood facing the fence for about 10 minutes earlier).They also have been walking around with their neck tucked in like that.

They continue eating and drinking despite how big their gullet has become and is even more comfortable to use getting close to them and even picking them up.

I think one of our neighbours is feeding them a lot- but if that were the case then other ducks should be more fuller too.

Just a tad concerned, even when they go to eat their gullet touches the floor. I remember seeing one like them with a much bigger one that dragged along the floor and well- we haven't seen them in a long while-

Is there anything wrong with this ducks droppings?

This duck is currently unable to walk properly and keeps stumbling over. It was trying to go back to it's home across the road but almost got ran over by cars and picked up by school children.

Decided to take them inside to avoid any further issues. But I am just checking to see if their is something in their diet that might be adding issues. I saw some of their other droppings outside and they're a mix of solid black with the green chalkiness to them. Again, just checking to make sure nothing else is wrong with them besides their legs.

Not sure what's wrong with them, but when I found them outside they were cowering in the corner by our gate. It began eating some leftover oats that our ducks left but when I got nearby it didn't fly away.

Eventually we had to bring them inside because the dog we have tried to get them- and now they're just chilling on me. It hasn't tried flying away, if anything they wont let go of me.

They're clinging to my dress and watching as I'm posting this right now so it's kinda funny- but I'm worried that there is something wrong with them.

It's not like the bird cannot fly since they flew out of the box we put them in, but it wouldn't leave even when I took them back outside.

Any advice? It's getting dark and there's been a cat in our neighborhood so I'm kinda worried something may happen.

Current pictures are what I have taken over the past few minutes.
