They're from Alien Stage!! (Stylized as ALNST) It's an online webseries (mostly told through animated music videos) created by two queer women, which tells the story of humans held captive on an alien planet and forced into a singing competition. Said singing competition works similarly to The Hunger Games, where if you lose, you die. While the main story is a tragedy, the creators of ALNST will often draw AU art where everybody is alive (including a school AU and an actor AU), which is a nice reprieve at times (￣▽￣*)ゞ The story has multiple casually queer characters, which is a big draw for a lot of people. All of the ships I named in the title of this post are canon -- one between two women, one between two men, and one being a female/male ship (which has a distinctly queer flavoring to it).
Apologies for the wall of text, I just really love this series :>
Oh that's so cool!! I saw one of the music videos (the one with the blonde guy and the black haired guy - Ivantill being their ship name, I'm guessing?) but I didn't know it was a full series. It sounds like it's one of those that's so tragic the authors went and made their own fluff AUs, which honestly, big mood.
