- some context on these two: thinkin about past or different lovers for both beck and courtney, and coming up with morally dubious but compelling dynamics for myself haha
- fisherman ted, trying to get more familiar with drawing his face #oc
- u would never know it bc all i do is post my characters nude with no context (lmao), but courtney lives in a small seaside town and works in commerical fishing, more through obligation and unfortunate circumstances than real desire for it.Jun 17, 2025 23:25
- ted is at least 2 decades older. they hold a mirror to each other - a past ted cannot return to, and a future courtney would rather avoid, if only he had the courage to pursue his happiness over obligation and self-sacrifice.
- their relationship swings between paternal and sexually charged, which creates a lot of confusion and guilt. they care deeply for each other and struggle to accept that there is no positive outcome for either of them if they stay together. so the relationship is kinda doomed.
- they started as a fun thought experiment but it ran away with me haha, i'd love to draw n develop them more! (beck also has his own stuff going on that i've had sitting around for almost a year, but been too shy to post rip)
- reposted from twitter! gonna try get back into the habit of using bluesky more :3
