My New Teen Titans OTP, Kid Flash x Raven! 

There’s two versions, one in “simple” comic style, and the other with shading. 

I attempted Perez’s style, but I fail lol. And the space background was a TOTAL pain in the neck to do. Took forever. ;w;

When reading the comics from the beginning (I’ve read Terra Incognito, The Judas Contract, and The Terror of Trigon years and years ago, and read the first collection volume back like 6 years ago, but I’ve only recently this past month read even more chronologically. I’m about to start volume 9, the Terror of Trigon arc), I fell into even DEEPER love with KFRae than I already had. 

I like to think Raven wanted to return Wally’s love. She seemed very distraught when he began resenting her (y’know, when Phobia made Raven attack Wally accidentally), she cared a lot about what he thought, and she often brought up how she didn’t like being unable to feel any emotions, especially love. So, yeah, I would like to think Raven wanted to love him back, and felt guilty that she couldn’t. 

I just wanted to draw them kissing this once because I wish they kissed or something. Just wish fulfillment, I suppose. :x

Redraw of a panel from The New Teen Titans volume 1, issue 39. I ship RobTerra as well, and when I first saw this like 11 years ago, my old RobTerra fangirl from 2007 squee’d. I’m surprised how Tara, even if she was “pretending,” flirted a little with Dick in the comics. Even if it wasn’t that often. 

So, felt like redrawing it in the 2003 cartoon’s style. It sucks, but eh.

Little doodle of 2003 cartoon!Raven wearing the outfit 80s comic!Raven wore to college in earlier issues of The New Teen Titans. The outfit was too cute, I couldn’t resist trying to apply it to her cartoon self. 

Side note: I hate shading loose fabric.

Been reading the 80s New Teen Titans comics all the way from the beginning, and felt nostalgic for the cartoon as well. So have a lil’ BBTerra (my OTP) and an “adult” Terra. 

Terra in her 80s costume is in my headcanon where it’s years later, Geo-Force helped Terra control her powers even more, and she rejoins the Titans. However, despite wearing her comic counterpart’s clothes, she’s nowhere near like her in personality.

Stolas, sobbing into his tissues: I can't believe he doesn't trust me.

The Piano Demon: Ah yes, because you've been nothing but a perfect gentleman this entire time and have treated him like an equal at every opportunity. I can't possibly imagine why he would ever interpret being taken advantage of during a life or death situation as anything other than a heartfelt romantic gesture. Goodness, the man must be blind.

its december third and i just gotta ask all of you one question

[aprilestrange]

From 2016. Realized I haven't posted these here.

KFRae was adorable and angsty in the 1980s comics and I freaking LOVE them. I wish they were an item in the 2003 cartoon. :c

[aprilestrange]

From 2016. Years later, and Terra comes back to the Titans, who welcome her back with open arms. Yes I headcanon their "adult" costumes are their costumes from the 80s comics.

Old art from 2016. Just realized I never posted it here.

Woooo! Terra, my freakin' QUEEN!!!! 

This piece was inspired by a headcanon I thought of one day in early 2016 while at lunch. In a few years, Terra is tired of living a normal life, realizing each day how much she misses the Titans, especially Beast Boy (I like to believe she was resurrected due to the events of The End Part 3 when Raven made everything normal again). So she seeks out her brother Geo-Force/Brion and reunites with him. She confides in her brother that she wants to return to the Titans, but is too scared her powers will be out of control again (because most of her control came from Slade), so Geo-Force decides to help train her with her powers, since they have the same powers. It takes a long time, but Geo-Force is pleased at the progress Terra makes over time.

Also, it was an excuse to draw an old outfit I made for Terra back in 2007/2008 (this was when I ripped her off Sakura and RobTerra happened in my universe, and Terra was trained by Gwen from Ben 10.  Yeah, it makes as much sense as it sounds). I decided to modify it a wee bit, though. I actually like how this came out, too! 

I don't appreciate negative comments about my Queen. Keep your bashing elsewhere.

The first one legitimately breaks my heart.
