- A cervine couple learns that love often means letting go a bit.
This is a short animation project I finished last year! But I wanted to upload it to show that I am still active on this channel.
Thank you guys so much for your continued support, I am having a blast making these videos and I don't intend on stopping. It just takes a long while to make them. Stay tuned for more!
The characters belong to Khendar who was an absolute pleasure to work with for this.
The music was composed by AxelVei.

My husband was hit hard by a metabolism shift when he hit 30. He started putting on weight no matter, went from 80kg (176lbs) to 110kg (240lbs) in the blink of an eye.
We tried everything and thankfully have gotten it under control - he has been stable at 110kg/240lbs for years now. He isn't going up anymore... but he can't lose the weight either.
He suffers from Chronic Fatigue, so exercise is basically impossible - it leaves him bedridden for days. He spends alot of time in a wheelchair.
Chronic Fatigue also means he HAS to eat certain amounts of stuff at certain times just to try and keep his energy - protein before bed, carbs in the morning etc.
I do almost all the cooking. My stomach doesn't work, it'll probably be surgically removed in the next few years, so cooking helps remind me I have to eat - and it makes sure I can feed him healthy stuff. We eat extremely healthy... but he just can't shed the weight.
Love is... knowing sometimes life deals you a hand you didn't expect, and accepting it anyway.
Love is... knowing sometimes things go a bit pear-shaped, and are hard or impossible to fix.
We change.
We get disabilities, we gain or lose weight, we get sick, we go grey, we get wrinkles and warts and stretch marks... and love is being there with someone through every step.
I know the animator has a fat-fetish, being overweight is unhealthy, letting people become obese is harmful - fucking whatever.
Just because he finds obese people attractive doesn't mean he is some harmful feeder who wants to force people into obesity for his own sexual pleasure.
That's a bit like saying preferring skinny ladies means you want women to always starve themselves... which is dumb.
You can be sexually attracted to something without wanting people to hurt themselves. You can enjoy an aesthetic and a fantasy without wishing harm onto people.
I want my husband to have the body that makes him feel the happiest in his own skin - REGARDLESS of what I like. I love his gut, I love his tummy hair, I love his soft chest!
But that isn't the body he wants. Its not the body he currently has, and he may never have that body again... That is very sad.
I will do anything to help him get there, even if it means losing his cute tummy. I love him, and want him to know he is beautiful every step of the way to that goal.
This animation is very sweet
You are a beautiful person and your love is inspiring. I wish both your problems could just be fixed, but it's true:love comes along life, and life sometimes deals us a bad hand, true love is enduring that bad hand together, as best as you can.
Can't you just get on pills? They have pills for gastropharsis
Can I possibly suggest trying keto for 6 months and see if that helps? Sorry if it's not advice you are looking for, only mentioning it because it was the only thing that worked for me. Even doing that and like a 20 minute walk each day might help reset his body. Regardless I hope that he stays happy and healthy and you all enjoy all the time you have
Being overweight isn’t unhealthy. It’s other factors like cholesterol, sugar, and unhealthy fats that make you unhealthy.
@@Thewaterspirit57 This is probably true with being slightly overweight, however I have to correct this misinformation. This does not apply to being obese. Regardless of your blood panels, every organ in your body has to work harder, including your heart, kidneys, etc. Each second that ticks by as you are obese might be equivalent to 1.25 or even 1.5 seconds for someone who is a healthy BMI.
I liked the idea and the message behind this but there's still the overwhelming idea on how he can't even walk upstairs of his own home anymore. Kinda sad imo
I dont like how his so becomes like a caretaker...
@@carlamartinezmangas4112 yeah basically became too dependent on his partner
Yeah same, maybe because I go to school for nursing but this isn’t a very heartwarming scene for me. It feels like an unfortunate progression of events.
@@carlamartinezmangas4112 Yeah it's kinda co-dependent
@@lovely1641 i feel like the scene of pushing up the stairs at night was the bigger one being too tired to be able to get up the stairs...
I absolutely love how you can tell a whole story without using a single word. Great job, keep it up!
Yeah his art and animation are always great and shows what is going on in the background without having to explain every bit of detail it's one of the main reasons I love his work and him
One picure, a thousand little words.
Every animation tells a story without saying a word
A deer family
Well I mean they did use words "love is mutual growth" - I would not have got that if they didn't write that in their animation.
Moving in together is a big step, I'm glad they're happy with each other, I thought something really bad happen at the end because the background suddenly become dark but it's actually very wholesome 💕
Mhhhh I would want to see them play the violin to create a brutal ways czcams.com/users/clipUgkxD8RrwkrpIDFdn07qyUe1Si_CMo5AZoOY
To be honest i think this did get dark even if not the intention
The bigger man, despite how clearly unhappy his partner is with how hes destroying himself, kept going until he couldn't go up the stairs with him anymore.
Resulting in the smaller one having to give up on even trying to help him anymore, instead of a mutual compromise, the smaller one has to just give in despite being unhappy because of "love"
@@ItsMinnowSeason I dont think that what the story was trying to convey lol it said it in the frame mutual growth the morals of this story is to be more accepting lol the trophy for sumo cup also proves that he was just trying to live his life but everyone has there prosectives even tho I dont agree lol
@@cano727 Yeah exactly I found the animation wholesome and adorable I know a lot of people think this is a sad animation but the whole point of the animation is showing how some couples especially married ones just lose focus on trying to stay in shape cause they're just to tired with everything and just want to let lose and shows that you should still love your partner even though they got a few extra pounds. I agree it isn't a good idea to be unhealthy but some people just want to be that way it's their choice I just wish the people that are talking bad about the video would just love the animation and understand what the artist was showing instead of trying to make it look and sound bad even though you can't help them to get back in shape you should still support them and love them for who they are and show them you should love them and who knows maybe there will be another video where he gets back in shape.
@@shroom5834 I read that whole thing I'm glad more people think this way lol
I love seeing this animation again. It’s technically beautiful and well-written and -acted, and it’s just so sweet. Thanks for showing that there’s hope for the chubby guys and the guys who love them!
SO CUTE
I dont think this was showing hope though
You see how unhappy the smaller man is and he just- instead of the two having some kind of mutual compromise where they're both happy- the smaller dude just seemed to just give up/give in despite being happy quq||
@@ItsMinnowSeason yeah, some unhealthy feeder/gainer fetish. Some of these people enjoy the fact they can’t breathe after walking a few feet.
By hope do you mean somebody that’s naturally attracted to your size because that doesn’t seem like what this animation is about.
@@ItsMinnowSeason Or, maybe, it shows that there are hardships in life and that they can be accommodated for, no matter how "unhappy" they can make you in the moment.
My bf used to be extremely thin and attractive, everyone in school wanted him. When we graduated and the pandemic hit he gained so much weight. Idky but this makes me wanna cry bc of how much I relate to it. It's not his size, but hes the one that feels bad about himself, and of course I want him to feel good ab himself and happy and healthy. I do everything to support him, and I want him to know no matter what his size is I'll always be there by his side, trying to help him. Even though it hurts a lot to see himself letting himself go so badly, I love him, and at the end of the day my support wont be enough because its HIS decision. Sorry for my rant. This resonated with me.
Just have a serious talk with him about it and maybe go on jogs or to the gym yourself so it makes it easier for him to join you and get started on his weight loss. Obesity is a serious issue and I hope it works out and he addresses it so he can live longer.
If you want help, I can help him. For free, just giving advice on how to start.
Thank you guys for the advice :) this has been an ongoing problem for 2 years. I've went to the gym and even started dieting with him, but somehow he always falls back. Will try my best to have another serious talk with him. It really means a lot :) ❤
If you need more help please come back. I know a lot that you both have not learned yet about weight loss. Fasting is by far the most effective way to lose weight. Keto also works. Either is more effective than just eating less and moving more.
There is CICO too. Calories In Calories Out. You have to put out more calories than you eat. I burn about 2400 so to lose weight I’d want 1300. So long as you eat the strict number of calories you can eat anything. And fruits and veggies like cauliflower make it even easier for snacks. I can still eat chipotle, just drink water all day and eat low calorie snacks . Etc etc. Cook your own food. Make food healthy and fun. You don’t HAVE to go jogging everyday. Weight loss is 80% diet 20% exercise. Work together. Encourage him. Keep your chin up. 😁
Incredibly wholesome animation. You let go a little to gain a lot. Ironically, that's a good metaphor for this animation. Love your works and drawings, and I'm happy you're still active here
I’m curious what you mean by this? Do you see this animation as portraying the bigger guy letting go and being himself and the smaller guy eventually learning to accept him for who he is?
@@johnlinkman7760 No no, not at all. At the beginning, they both move into their own place, that's the "give up a little" part. The "gain a lot" stands for their growing relationship with each other, even though the big deer gains some weight, which is the way I tried to put it originally
@@Gretri17 Idk that seems like a slight of hand to me. It seems like it could mean both at the same time. What your saying seems like it may be an undertone to the story but the overtone seem like weight gain.
Hey furries and friends! I am a cat boy musician, I have just released my first album CRASTI LAND and I want to share the news with fellow furries and their friends :) Respectfully and kindly, I have worked very hard on this album and I would appreciate every listen and review.

Really love how the background grows more as time with each other moves on. Making a scene of memories. I'm also curious about the trophy. Whay is it?
Haha, it is a sumo wrestling trophy!
And thank you so much
@FattyDragonite Now I see why he was fat props to him getting a. Trophy
@@FattyDragonite but that's not what sumo trophies look like they're typically cup-like or tiered with bars
@@j3ssthealien283 no
As always, your animations are adorable.

Just him flying to the smell of pizza like those old cartoons is just so funny to me.
Classic old school 👌
Yes, that made me chuckle too.
So, I noticed that it says Mutual Growth.... but you can tell as the photos go with each set, that in the end, the smaller cervine is unhappy when looking at their partner.... they're unhappy with either their size or perhaps their lack of self? I LOVE this animation for the quality, but I take it as something different than everyone else I think.
It's adorable, but, watching someone get so large it becomes unhealthy or a safety concern.... I don't feel that that's love.... coming from someone who watched their Grandfather love his wife SO much he let her get to 620lb until she couldn't even move anymore.... or even have a life.... this animation makes me sad in a way.
My grandfather gave up his LIFE to love and care for my obese grandmother... and she never once thanked him... when she passed from her size/health the family was actually low key happy because my grandpa was FREE and he now has a amazing life.
So... from my own experiences... I just take something different from this animations meanings then others might.
yeah man it's def not good the dog gon die in like 5 years lmao but the animation is for fetish purposes i imagine
@@iam878 not even bro 💀
@@user-id1mx9ze8f ...you do know there's a fetish called 'weight gain', right? This is it bro
@@iam878 I just realized that.
I agree, it gives me an unsettling feeling.
I shed a tear when I saw this, more like a plump person that I am, and not having had a boyfriend before, it gives me a lot of emotion and joy to know that I still have the hope that one day that will come. I take my hat off to your animations fattydragonite, you really know how to express things that others cannot by other means, cheers.
@LegendaryMug its personal opinión but,you are right,everyone should get a boyfriend or girlfriend,some males can expres more feelings than others.
Get a man that will encourage you to become healthy. I did, I lost some weight (still a long way to go), but I'm not scared of exercising and eating more healthy anymore, because I know I got a loving human being by my side that will encourage and support my every step of the way
@@-Couch_Potato- what a cute words you say,i am having troubles with my weigth and its a Battle dat i am dealing Alone,i Hope some day i Lost weigth and get more skiny beacuse i have some medical problems beacuse of my weigth,this video give me more courage and motivation for this Battle.
@@tomascastro2521 you go! The most important human that's always there for you is yourself. Remember that, take care of yourself, keep on this battle to become the best person you can be one step at a time... And love yourself for making this steps.

I remember this from last year, just perfectly describes the unconditional love of a relationship.
Too bad the chunky guy doesn't have enough love for his partner to get fit enough to walk up stairs or anywhere else so they can actually do things together as a couple.
@@1faithchick7 Different things for different folks. Maybe it just wasn't his cup of tea.
You can tell most of these people don't realize it's a WG fetish xD
Keep on making videos about what you like, don't let their disapproval make you change your content. If you make it obvious enough, then you'll attract the audience that you actually want.
I'm floored so many people are oblivious to it being gainer content.
Oh well.
It was both hot and sweet.
seriously. the contrast is honestly funny
I... *THINK* that this video was meant to be a wholesome one with WG derivatives in it, rather than it being wholesome WG fetish content itself.
If it *is* just straight-up wholesome WG content, then that's very 👍 and people should make what they like. But as someone not into WG, I originally saw this as a cute, wholesome animation depicting relatable changes/dynamics in a mundane long-term relationship that happened to abide by that... *”being able to tell an artist's fetish even in their casual non-fetish stuff“* meme to non-distracting levels (vs. the not-very-mundane scenarios typically depicted in WG???).
I'd like to think that incorporating the skills artists develop... *after dark* doesn't render their SFW content after dark. But I guess that whether that applies to this video depends on whether what happens behind the scenes is *mundane* or not, which now seems ambiguous to me after my second watch. 😅
@@laurenmiller3951I loved reading this comment to be honest, these topics seem curious to me and this comment is more than interesting, thank you :)
It’s not about the fetish dude. It’s about accepting ones decisions about getting big, so that ain’t about the fetish. Couples like these exist irl.
These animations are so beautiful...
Pure love...a sign of care and support no matter how thier appearance... No matter thier size... Love is beautiful
CZcams showed me this great animation, but I'm torn. I appreciate the work that went into such a beautiful result, but it's also very scary. As someone who has watched a family member become more sedentary over time and gain so much weight it negatively impacts their overall health and life... seeing him not be able to get up the stairs again nearly made me cry.
nickocado avocado's life animated
Ouch. Hope the two were ok when they fell down the stairs. As always, your animations are amazing and cute. 😊 Love is sharing, helping, and of course fattening.
Always makes my day seeing another great animation and art from you my boyfriend and I have always loved watching your videos together after a long shit day at work love you man keep up the great work hun 🐺💙
I'm worried for the big one's health
A feeder and his grommr match. Always beautiful
Gaining weight as you settle down with your love is a classic trope. Very bizarre that so many people in this comment section insist on making it about real life issues, Imagine getting triggered over a fat cartoon animal. I think some just see a fat person, cartoon or not, and can only think about how they’re dying or suffering or whatever.
Well yeah, but check out the other videos... It's not just a classic trope but a fetish thing. I don't care, personally, but that's probably why people are disturbed (however I have yet to see anyone actually complain)
@@nyancat8828Dude, if this was a fetish thing, it wouldn’t be posted on CZcams. This is something that happens, and believe it or not, but some people like being big, and their partner likes enjoying the size as well.
Don’t blanket this only as a fetish :/
@@Thewaterspirit57 I'm sorry to tell you, but fetish stuff is all over CZcams. This person's channel is called "FattyDragonite" Not my first choice for a name. Their most popular video is a fat, inflating Charizard- I can't even view it because it was age-restricted. I thought this was obviously a fetish animation, the videos recommended after this are fat, furry, inflation animations. Sorry dude.
My guy, he couldn't even walk up stairs anymore. Dude became disabled and it is entirely avoidable. As a disabled person who did not choose this at all it is really gross.
@@Thewaterspirit57I’m not saying if it is or not, this is just a tangential correction, but fetish stuff absolutely gets posted to CZcams. It’s not explicitly sexual to the outside observer which is why it doesn’t get taken down, but yeah it gets posted.
Even after the weight gain, his friend still loves him❤. The way it should be❤
This is top notch stuff. The storyboarding alone is brilliant. So much told without words and with beautifully rendered animation beats. It's damned near perfect. LOVE IT.
Hell no my lover don’t have to be a fitness god but we def go be running together no cap
We're glad you're back friend, we seriously love how you can animate. As always, amazing job man.
What beautiful work! Tells so much in so short a time. Wow. Such talent. I'm awed.
I love all of your animations, they are so wonderful and you improve every single time! I would like to see how Andy and Chris are doing for your next project, but any other one is perfect too!
This is such a lovely work of animations
Ah, some sweet jazz in the background, so good~ And such a lovely ending with the shadows after falling down the stairs, lovely.
...something that I don't have.
I love your videos especially this one. It's nice to see something different on here and I adore lofi hip hop, totally gives me those vibes
This animation was so heartwarming. Well done man, your animations are amazing.
This is beautifully done! You should be so proud!
This made me feel something *sheds tear*
I thought this was about Nickacado avocado at first
Man became nikocado 💀
Honestly I like your videos I don't know they just scream like a positive warm feeling thank you
YES! So glad you uploaded! I love your videos
I've shared around where I can. Absolutely beautiful artwork and story telling. I have to respect the kind-spirited nature of these. The lack of conflict in your videos has been refreshing and proof you can simply tell a heartwarming story. I love your content
Nicokado origins
🤣
oh my god, it showed up in my recommendations and im so happy! its so freaking wholesome! Love is love
The more the chonk, the more fun to snuggle 😊
"The writers barely disgusted fetish"
hold awn... THIS IS JUST A FETISH ANIMATION
wow no shit
I can't believe it. Its still looping in my head that bendor died 2 months ago, the actor voice acting the green dragon was Benjamin James Ricard. And from all the info I gathered he took his own life bye drowning himself on a nearby beach all because he said "his life was faked everything he did was a lie" I'm not sure if he was depressed or anything because he didn't look it that being said, Rest in piece Bendor ❤️ you will forever be remebered
Kind of irrelevant to the comment but ok I guess@@blazethefox5721
La obesidad no es algo lindo y saludable, no es amor.. PERO! Que una persona te ame estes en el cuerpo que estes es amor y tambien es amor preocuparse por la salud de la persona que amas, sea tu pareja, familiar o amigo...
I legit thought that the small deer was gonna go up alone by the final one.
0:44 ouch, that’s a few cracked ribs at least.
isn't this just fetish art
Yeah that's the point
I'm very happy to see that your still making animations
Awwwww, this is so adorable!

Wholesome. I love how the scenes had different lighting and shadowing. Dynamic. The growth of the two characters was beautifully done. Then, the cuddle at the end. I loved the message. You did GOOD. 🐺
I love your animations so much. They turn this "werewolf boyfriend" into a huge soft boi puppy
This is a super cute animation, I still love it ❤️
wow your backgrounds have improved dramatically the characters look like they fit into the scene and not to mention your animations just look more dynamic and natural significant improvement from your fist few videos
I would have tell my boyfriend that he should stop eating that much cause it can be dangerous too,so he should keep his own control,ofc I would help him.
I love how the camera perspective moved even when the big guy just tripped
It's awesome!.. as always :)
I love this alot~😍😍😍😍😍
so how is this a good ending?

@@kromer3797 and at the end of the day, I have a question, and my question is how tf is this a good ending?
@@powerfulbeing4634 it never said anywhere it was a good or bad ending.
@@themute9354 implies it
Damn this is absolutely amazing!
Aww so cute, also love the fat progression
Love is accepting your partner has an eating disorder. Great animation though.
I watched the video, thought it was cute but I read a reply from the creator that it's a sumo trophy on the wall, and than this video became adorable and amazing! There's no words so we as watchers need to read the ENTIRE video to understand. And as a side note, Sumo wrestlers do a lot of exercise and healthy eating, watch some videos on it. Enjoy!
Then how come he can't make it up the stairs? Sumo wrestlers can certainly climb stairs. They don't become immobile.
@@spiwolf6998 I watch a lot of sumo wrestling and they explain that most sumo wrestlers are built differently. Which is why successful ones have a short lifestyle. If you watch live coverage of bashos, which is their competition, you can see them having issues with stairs. They can lift cars, people, but long distances give them trouble. Much like body buildings and power lifters can do amazing feats but due to muscle mass, can't get a note off their back. Yet someone who works with yoga can. They build up muscle and stamina to have fights, to have bursts of energy and strength. Look at wrestler Touchinoshin. His build is different from other sumo wrestlers, extremely built under his weight, watch his videos and his arms and legs. But you'll see by just him walking around, he will start to heave. Different body builds, different ways to deal with stuff. Not saying it's bad but obviously he is working out and his partner loves and supports him. But we gotta see the whole picture. Like the vending machine and breaking rules video the creator did. Small hidden details to why the one character is so shy and hidden. Hope this helps, cheers!
Ah the method of the movie up. I see how great of use of music and visually great it is
I haven't seen this in a while man. Makes me happy!
You've improved so much!!!! The backgrounds are *chefs kiss*

Nikocado avocado.
isn't it nice watching videos about things you'll never have
ITS BEEN A LONG TIME LUKE!! IM GLAD FOR AN UPLOAD FROM A LONG TIME, sorry I'm just sooo happy you uploaded again, please do more
I honestly love this animation. While there are definitely some upsetting connotations that come with it, I think it can also be uplifting.
I myself vibe with the smaller guy. I’m not all that athletic, and I’ve always been very skinny, but I do like working out. I know the likelihood of me getting fat is ironically slim, so shame on me for liking thicker dudes. I mean, not unhealthy thick, but cuddly teddy bear thick.
HONESTLY! There’s an upper limit to everything, and that limit is at physical incapability.
It's good to see you posting videos again^^
In just 1 minute. Ae learned something new thanks to your beautiful animation video
Beautiful animation, love the basis.🖤👍🏾💯
You never fail to amaze us all with your talent in both animation and story telling buddy. Great to see this finally shown and we'll appreciated~
