Boo Boo's Just Happy to Be There

First date between two southern gays, with Boo Boo serving them at Jellystone Diner.

A three-way aggie collab from over a month ago between @micaxiii, @rachelordwayart, and myself.

for @artpro86 because their art is what got me shipping this ship in general.

-Both are very nervous and neurotic people in general…but to everyone’s surprise, their nervous tendencies tend to cancel each other out when they’re with each other. They act relaxed in a way that they usually aren’t and it secretly relieves EVERYONE that they aren’t as stressed. 

-However, if you HAD to see who was the more relaxed one, it's Jinks. Jinks can EASILY calm down Doggie Daddy when he goes into spirals with a few well-placed words and rubs on his back. 

-Speaking of rubs, Jinks LOVES rubbing scratching and rubbing Doggie Daddy’s ears. Not only does it genuinely calm Doggie Daddy down, Doggie Daddy’s ears are softer than Doggie Daddy’s actual fur…and boy does it feel GOOD against Jinks’ hands. 

-Doggie Daddy is sometimes nicknamed ‘D.D’ by Jinks. To this day, ONLY Jinks is allowed to call Doggie Daddy ‘D.D’. 

-Pixie and Dixie acted as wingmen for Jinks when Jinks first realized he had feelings for Doggie Daddy. How good they were at their job…depends, as they often made things worse for Jinks more often than not! 

-Both Jinks and Doggie Daddy were VERY nervous introducing their children to each other. They were worried that there’d be some sort of jealousy present between the two of them. To both’s pleasant surprise, Augie Doggie was absolutely THRILLED at the idea of having a new playmate. Not to mention J.J’s laid back demeanor contrasted perfectly with her more high spirited one!

-Doggie Daddy and Mr. Jinks go on double dates with Huckleberry and Snagglepuss CONSTANTLY. In the beginning. D.D was admittedly worried he wouldn’t fit in with Huck and Snag because of how well Jinks knew them both. Thankfully, D.D got on with them just fine.

-Doggie Daddy loves listening to R&B songs. Mr Jinks is a classical musical fan. They both listen to each other’s music taste to see the appeal and like to comment and debate with each other on their song choices later. 

-Doggie Daddy pretends to hate that he’s the shorter one of the two. Mainly because it means Jinks can pick him up and swing him around easily…and secretly, Doggie Daddy loves being picked up. It makes him feel all giddy inside. 

-Doggie Daddy is a very traditional romantic. Candlelit dinners, flowers, chocolates, the works. However it’s mixed in with his overprotective antics in that it sometimes gets to be WAY TOO MUCH. It’s to the point that Jinks can get overwhelmed by all the affection. 

-Doggie Daddy realized he first fell for Jinks when he saw Jinks comfort Augie after a bad day…with GENUINE advice that he’s usually bad at giving. It cheered Augie right back up and she hugged him…and instead of Jinks pushing her off, he hugged her back. That was how Doggie Daddy knew he was in deep. 

-Long before they started dating, Doggie Daddy once tried to capture Pixie and Dixie himself as a gift to Mr. Jinks, as well as to impress the cat. He…actually did a LOT better than Jinks. He managed to catch them for a brief moment and present them to Jinks afterwards. Jinks was honored. Naturally, Pixie and Dixie escaped shortly after and left behind NOTHING but chaos for Jinks and Doggie Daddy but Jinks continues to look back at the attempt as a fond memory. 

-Jinks originally was nervous about getting attached to Doggie Daddy, especially with this coming after his failed crush confession to Huckleberry. For a while, he was deeply worried he was just settling for a “rebound.” It was only when he saw how different Doggie Daddy was from Huckleberry did he let go of this worry. 

-Jinks was convinced to start using modern technology by Doggie Daddy (who was much quicker to adapt to it than Jinks). He still has trouble using it but thanks to Doggie Daddy, he's actually getting better.

-Jinks adores Doggie Daddy’s way of speaking. He could listen to it for hours. He’s sometimes asked Doggie Daddy just to repeat certain words because he loves listening to his voice so much.

-Doggie Daddy has ABSOLUTELY gotten Jinks outfits to match with him. While Jinks complains about them, he will always, ALWAYS wear them and fiercely defend the outfits from anyone who makes fun of them. 

-One of the two’s favorite ways to relax is by taking naps. They will take naps together literally ANYWHERE, especially because they’re so tired out from watching over and running after BOTH Augie Doggie and J.J (Augie has enough energy for both Jinks and Doggie Daddy for a lifetime). This includes behind the recliner. 

-Both also LOVE cleaning things together! Their house is basically spotless (except for J.J’s room. Even THEY have a hard time cleaning that up in general). Jinks, however, can tend to get carried away with it since he’s SO into it. 

-Doggie Daddy and Jinks’ favorite type of date is going to drive-in movies together (because both are from an era where that was very common). They often take Doggie Daddy’s car (since he’s the better driver) and just sit back, relax, and enjoy the movie.
