Rome blankly stared up at the cold night sky, his eyes trailing over the stars drawing constellations in his mind. He wondered, wherever she was, if Judah could see them too– if they could lock eyes across light years of distance and despite the time that had passed since he had last seen his sister, if they could still recognize the other by smile alone. 'Oh, Jude,' he sighed, lip trembling as he failed to conjure a mental image of her visage altogether, head barren of even the faintest memory of their shared past. 'Oh, Jude– We've messed up, haven't we?'

#obscura#edit:rome#nuclearocs#nuclearedits#oc scrapbook#hi! i need to put him in my mouth#the quote in the piece genuinely makes me insane every time i read it. it depends on light. hhheeuhhhhhhh#i am very very happy with the composition of this piece also because i was able to like#build on the background image and build Around the part where the sun and earth and the nearest star are located#and then that part of the quote right above it. to the edge of what can be loved. i don't know!!! makes me crazy!!!#rome doesn't know where judah is. she went missing in space 18 years ago and she's just gone. there's no proof that the ship#exploded or crashed somewhere it's just gone. she and her crew have been missing in space for 18 years#and rome still believes she's somewhere out there. but also his search is the hardest thing he's ever done#his theory about the empty earth is horrifying and he doesn't want it to be real. but also if he wants judah to be alive#then his theory MUST be real. because there's nowhere else she could be#so much time has passed and everyone else has moved on but rome hasn't and it's reached the point where it's like#his grief is still consuming him and his parents passed away recently so it's just this fresh open wound again#how far can he go to try and get his sister back? is it worth it? how does distance look?

"The outer reaches of space remain unexplored by humankind to this day, but its greed is relentless. We grasp and yearn and hunger for knowledge— answers to questions we cry out into the endless void expecting to understand, expecting the stars to respond. The stars will not, but one day something else will— and we will not like what it has to say." — Rome Solomon, Beyond the Exosphere (1965)

#obscura#edit:rome#nuclearocs#nuclearedits#ok so. ok hi. red and i made a new universe hi. sorry. morris quincy victor and eleanor belong to them the rest belong to meee :3#the pictures i used are basically the patron saints of their occupation / line of work! so that's not what they look like#anyway it's a mix of paranormal stuff + lovecraftian horror + sort of zombies :^)#they're like. the domains of lucifer (demons) behemoth (zombies) and leviathan (the eldritch horrors that happen in space and oceans)#who are like. the three evils that torment the mortal realm#it's all in a historical setting kind of parallel to our world? so a bunch of historic events are the same but it's like#a little bit more advanced with technology but at the same time it's not. it's Just A Little Different y'know#rome's sister went to space for a mission and just straight up went missing which prompts him to become an astronomer#and he's the first one to start speculating the existence of leviathan as eldritch god#morris is a technician at the academy who has an angel stuck in his computer#eve is a nun and herbalist who witnesses the influence of behemoth firsthand through some sick travelers#that she and the other nuns of her convent take care of#anatoly and quincy are both from different space missions who end up as the only survivors who are not basically a plant#the other two survivors have secretly been replaced with some sort of parasites. annihilation style if you've seen that movie#eleanor is a demonologist and works together with her brother victor who's her cameraman#clarence is a blind psychic who lost her sight because of an angel trying to warn her and in return got her psychic abilities#and lazarus is one of the two most famous demonologists in the world but his wife (the other one) passed away#so now he's alone and since he's not from an upper class family like his wife was he's not all that loved as she was#there's a lot going on but it's SO fucking fun to work on so far. feel free to send any asks i would love to explain more :^)#if you've made it this far also hi i love you. kiss for you
