(how do you say goodbye to someone who was never there?)

some people
are so good
at disappearing
that you start to doubt
your memories
that they
were ever there.
(a softer world)

-

also on tumblr.

created for likealighthouse's april drift 2025 event. i was prompted by katie on my ask me anything post, the prompt being "teen titans (or dc in general!) + favorite rare-pair" so of COURSE i had to do tararose!

i decided to do an edit based on a softer world kinda spontaneously? editing in this format was a ton of fun! i messed with textures and lighting here and i like the implication of the comic bubble in the middle next to the quote caption under the edit.

ooooooooooooooh i LOVE this!!!! doing a softer world style is SUCH a fun idea!!! i love the inclusion of the comic bubble jknksdnksjdf it fits so well with the softer word lines and the way you cropped and placed the images AND the contrast w the center of tara's face being lighter than the edges of her image so it really looks like you're looking up at her!!!

THANK YOU!!!!! it was SO fun doing this format!!!! and the comic bubble i was at first mixed on because it doesn't super fit the softer world format BUT I DO WHAT I WANT!!!! also omg glad you noticed how i cropped and lit tara's face that was exactly my intention!!!! TY KATIE <3
