Description "Goodbye, my almost lover
Goodbye, my hopeless dream
I'm trying not to think about you
Can't you just let me be?

So long, my luckless romance
My back is turned on you
Should've known you'd bring me heartache
Almost lovers always do"

A Fine Frenzy - Almost Lovers

-----------------------------------------------

A tribute to Raven and Rorek/Malchior. There was once a fanfic idea to go with this, but it got dusty on the shelf of my imagination some time ago.

Check out the song, it's absolutely beautiful.

:/ Congratulations? Is there a particular reason you felt so moved by your not shipping this you had to comment on someone else's enjoyment of it on another someone else's artwork? Yay, you have an opinion. Weird place to share it.

Thank you. It's just not necessary to rudely try to start ship war nonsense on someone's innocent comment. It's just poor conduct, is all. Anyways, glad you like the art, hope you have a nice day.

This is absolutly beautiful, I love how the art style you used to draw their faces in; it makes me wish Teen Titans was closer to that instead of the style their drawn in. However if that were the case, I'd be crushing on Rorek myself

As much as you claim there to be tons of flaws with this sketch, I don't see any huge flaws at all. Infact if it weren't for reading previous comments, I would've never noticed his hand. The only thing that looks a tad bit strange is Rorek's lower body, but then again Rorek actually had long lean legs

This couple will always be special to me, I was a strong BBxRaven fan, but I wasn't a fan of the series when it first aired for many reasons. It wasn't until I encountered "Spellbound" that I grew to love the series(even though I still don't like Starfire for some reason )

Too bad about the fanfic idea, cause if it would be as good as your fan art, it would be a great piece.

Avelona-and-Sally In reply to RndmChibiGirl [2010-12-13 02:21:59 +0000 UTC]

Actually, I think he was used again in a different episode... For several miliseconds... As he was blasted into space by the guy who uses a musical instrument to fight.

yeah... he was used in the finale of the episode "Titans Together" momentarily... and Herald was the Titan who opened portals

Avelona-and-Sally In reply to wulfpup12 [2010-12-18 01:55:14 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I went online and read Malchior's character bio to see where he appeared, and read that it as Herald who sucked him into space.

My! What a nice string of adjectives! Thank you very much.

I've always been rather curious what would have happened if Raven had met Rorek, rather than Malchior.

Yeah, it wasn't so much that I liked them as a couple, but more that I found the entire drama that unfolded in and of itself interesting. It made a good story.

azulnay In reply to InAbsentia [2010-09-02 23:58:43 +0000 UTC]

I think it has a bit of realism about the Raven comic to something similar happened, not so accurate but someone fall in love and almost achieved their goals with it, only to Jericho (his best in the comic) saved, so it has a bit of realism that episode, but if we speak of preferences I prefer the history of the series in that case.

I can certainly paint, I love to do it, XD
