• Comments: Minor spoilers for episodes 25 & 26! I sincerely apologize for the subtitles, but I let's just say that I spent hours trying to get the subless videos to run on my laptop and, obviously, I never did get it to work.
  
  This was the AMV I started over Winter Break 2007 and that grew into such a huge project that it was confined to a computer back home (20 mins away from college), so I was unable to finish it until now. It is also my first contribution to Commoner's Coffee Productions! :-D

  This AMV was made with Final Cut Express HD.
  
  The Story:
  Basically it's one big dream sequence, but the opening (not the credits) is grey sort of as an homage to Wizard of Oz -- normal is grey, dreaming is color. Also, the very end is supposed to resemble that weird spiral of events that happens right before you wake up. And what finally wakes her up? Simultaneous visions of stuff blowing up and crashing accompanied by the sound of thunder and lightning, all with a strange woman glaring at her. (I.E. It's a vision of impending doom brought on by the woman, Éclair -- see episodes 25 & 26)
  The voices that call out to her in her dream go in this order: Hani's, Mori's, the Twins', Kyouya's, and finally Tamaki's as she wakes up. She has one final "vision" as she wakes up - that of the whole Host Club - and so she hopes that everything will turn out all right in the end. Thus her comment: "Indeed there's not much difference between when I dream and when I'm awake."
  
  Note: The opening & ending credits have nothing to do with the story for this video -- I just love the twins to pieces. XD
  Note #2: I like to think of this as my "Tribute to Minor Characters" AMV, because nearly every single *named* minor character appears by the end of it (the only exception being Yabu, but I don't think that's his real name anyway, and the Lobelia girls); blood relations (and one close friend) appear first during the repeated lyric "Some of the people in my life", but some of the most significant unnamed characters appear as well during the lyric "You're just another face / That I know from a TV show". Then, the remainder of the named minor characters (some of whom only appear in 1-2 eps) appear by the end of the "wind-down" portion of the song, Eclair being the final one.
