It’s a song about loneliness and how to cope with it.
 
This idea came to mind when I was watching Darkflame75’s livestream. He was using a jukebox-like site, with the song called ‘Happy Little Pill’ by Troye Sivan. I had the idea of doing a picture like this (also it being at late 2 AM and probably from sleep deprivation), but I originally had the idea of it being on the couch. Unfortunately my camera has no flash and I couldn’t turn on the lights due to everyone being asleep.
 
The bathroom was a back-up place. I used different angles and eventually went the direction seen here. As for using the blur for a certain effect, that’s a problem. Since Paint.NET doesn’t have the same tools utilized as Photoshop (such as the lasso tool), I had to do a duplicate of the image and use a blur effect, and then erase the section with the pills in frame. I also utilized the same with Twilight, all except I had to cut the bottom part as well. As for the shadow part, I had difficulty with that, due to having difficulty on how to place it (shadows are a bastard to do at times…), but thanks to my friend Patch, I was able to just put the shadow where it should be. It ain’t perfect, but eh, I tried.
