The burnt-out gifted kids who longed for each other from afar… 🔧x🎀
The #DexBloss yearning is real…
I always shipped these two because I thought they understood each other better than anyone else. Lala loved Dexter, but she didn’t understand him, and that’s ultimately what doomed their relationship. And yes, Dexter isn’t a superhero, and Blossom isn’t a tortured genius with a giant lab, but they both have huge egos and are messed up in their own ways. Not only that, but I definitely think Blossom is probably the only person in the world willing to call him out on his self-centeredness, and vice versa. They are somehow so similar, but opposites at the same time.
And I think that’s beautiful… the world might not understand them, but they’ll have each other…
Also, the childhood friends-to-lovers trope… come on, guys, come on! You are not utilizing this trope enough!
Ok! So I made this little comic because I wanted to redraw a doodle I made way, way, way back when I first started drawing fan art for classic cartoon shows, and I gotta say, it turned out pretty well. I’m trying to figure out my background style. I really want to make it very stylized and flat, kind of like the original PPG, with a little bit of PSG style mixed into it. But yeah, I definitely think that’s something I’ll have to work on. Anyway, I made two drawings. Bonus pictures are the doodles of them while they’re still smol~ 💖
