Here's an alt-text description of the image:
The image depicts two figures standing in a broken, ornate frame surrounded by a lush, green background of vines and pink and red roses. Both figures have long, flowing hair, one bright blue and the other bright pink, and are dressed in dark, detailed clothing with lighter accents. They are positioned close to each other, appearing to hold hands, and are surrounded by falling rose petals. The floor beneath them is a checkered pattern, and two clocks are visible to the left, both showing a similar time. White lilies are present at the bottom of the image, and the overall aesthetic is detailed and fantastical.

In 1991, right after I finished high school, my band Cadaverous Quartet won Tucson’s annual Battle of the Bands. They made these t-shirts for the finals.
It’s cool that I still have a couple of them. It’s more cool that my daughter wears one all the time. It makes my heart swell a bit, actually. 😍🥹
