✥﹤SQUARED MV AESTHETICS﹥✥
the mv begins with a handful of shots thrown together: scenes of tarnished areas succumbing to dust and darkness, hallways illuminated by blinding shafts of light, spaces abandoned with only the remnants of whatever past life occupied it.
the members are seen trudging through these spaces, looking for something while being just as lost themselves. their footsteps echo against the stark silence. all the while, the scenes are seen through a screen of sorts.
the music starts and the members are running.
they're all alone, thrown into chaos that they're desperately trying to escape.
caeli starts off the song with a lyrical rap, while a frantic heartbeat thrummed faintly along. the scenes showed her hiding in the shadows of an old tunnel.
the camera cuts to khione and ember next. they're shown eyeing each other warily, exchanging lyrics like banter before ember notices something behind khione and starts running.
terra was in a secluded room full of screens; shown to have been watching them all along. his eyes flit between the screens, only for his expression to drop when the displays change to footage of him in that room. he glares at the camera before running.
the group is then performing in one of the old chambers. the place is now ignited in flames, fire lapping at the edges of the room. the scenes flit between their choreography and shots of their solo parts. the music swells with the pace of the members quickening, worry painted on their faces as they keep watch over their shoulder.
the song pauses, with their scenes flickering out and replaced with a now-empty screen. the bridge plays and the screen displays newer shots; different from the ones before.
you could tell they were the members, except here they were shown in regal settings with various things symbolising their power. terra and ember shared the bridge, singing about this perfect future they're trying to run to.
in the final chorus, the members aren't running anymore. their facing the chasers head on, making a move that changes the outcome of the story.
