Description
you promise forever and a dayand then you take it all away
---
Here's a stress-relief doodle that I felt like coloring. It's meant to kind of represent my idea of Blossom and Dexter's relationship before/during Fusion Fall: a continual series of bad timing! But they won't give up! (mm, Blossom is supposed to be holding Buttercup's blanket- it's just old so I put a patch on it :V and I know I cheated by changing Blossom's clothes a bit ~_~)
Aaaaand I'll get to replying to stuff after I get this song out of my head. Welp, guess I should replay it 500 times. Or sleep.

Haha, excellent!
No, but seriously, that makes me super happy to hear. Your stuff is amaze-tastic and every time I see you submit something, I cry 1000 tears of joy.
I know the feeling. I've been here shipping it for a while and it doesn't seem to be slowing down... I've seen the RRB vs. Everyone Else Debate, the Mass Exodus of the Bleedman Debacle, and the Great Push for BoysLove in Fusion Fall and none of it has deterred me. I'd call it a problem, but I'm having too much fun.

Aaah, I have so much love for DeeDark! I feel like it's the ship a lot of people accept but hardly anyone expresses their love for them in fan works. (And I'm guilty too! But I want to change my ways. ;_; ) My philosophy has always been, ignore the fanon fads and get out there and do your own thing. It's really the only reason why I post my stuff online (besides having a reason to talk to totally awesome people). I felt like people got caught up in this perpetual "I'm crushing on you so hard" routine with Dexter and Blossom, and I wanted to see cute, domestic, relationship-y stuff. So, here I am, lol.
Whaaaat! Your art is hella rad and you should be proud of it. It's clear you understand the dynamics of the characters, both personality-wise and physically. The best combination. Keep with it if you're having fun with it, because I'm totally enjoying you being here.

I love all kinds of Blossom x Dexter drawings you make, but I can not for the life of me figure out what this drawing means.
Mind explaining?

Not at all! I love discussing all things Blossom/Dexter!
In my opinion, either in Fusion Fall or a general crossover, the Blossom/Dexter coupling works best if they struggle to get together for an extended period of time, delaying their relationship into their late teens or older. And in this picture, it relates specifically to the events in Fusion Fall. So, the top half represents during the war, when Blossom is consumed with fighting and worrying about her family (especially Buttercup, cause she goes missing). Dexter is in the distance "chasing" the idea of being with Blossom. Then, the lower half is pre-war, when Dexter is earning his fame through his company and isn't thinking about much else. And Blossom is "chasing" the idea of being with him, attracted to his ambition and his ability to make a difference in the world. The events leave them wondering, "when will it be time for us?"
At least, that's what I made up in my head.

Wow that's good! Now I can definitely see it.
I plan to draw some Blossom x Dexter soon. My ideas will mostly be couple parodies and there friendship with another couple. (Billy x Mandy)

Thank you!
Awesome! I'll keep an eye out. I must admit, Blossom/Dexter doing everyday things together is one of my favorite things to see. But a lot of people don't do this... And seeing them interact with friends, it's even better.

Just a warning my first one will probably be just a sweet moment when they were kids. Until I can learn how to draw them anime style.

No need to warn! I'm down with most Blossom/Dexter pics. I'm just not a fan of bleedman or when people draw stuff like him. I mean, do what makes you feel comfortable, but I think people trying their own styles is more interesting. Everyone starts from somewhere- and have fun with it!

lKGl In reply to TookishPerian [2014-02-13 05:24:39 +0000 UTC]
Really, your not a fan of Bleedman?!
I figured most fans of Blossom x Dexter started because of him. At least that's how I started becoming a fan.
I hope I can start my own style soon. (Another warning, since I don't have a scanner yet I will have to take a picture of it and upload them. Like I did with my Simpsons drawings.)

I give him props for making the idea of a mega-cartoon crossover popular (even though crossovers existed before his stuff), but he and his writers over-simplified the characters too much for my liking. And I'm not as big of a fan of the super moe anime style. I love the shoujo style, like with Hirunaka no Ryuusei and Ao Haru Ride , or simpler styles like Faster than a Kiss and Love So Life .
Basically, the only way to get good is to start, keep drawing, and looooook at everything. And I read a lot of manga to see what I like and don't like.

So what your saying is that they had over over did the seriousness of the characters in there story?
Like when Dee Dee died, I thought that was too much, even for me. Although his art style is excellent It was bit too much.

TookishPerian In reply to lKGl [2014-02-13 05:59:50 +0000 UTC]
Sort of, yeah. It's more like, characters kept falling in typical tropes that made the story flat. Like Blossom becoming a damsel in distress and Dexter had to rescue her. Because... the glass was too tough? Really?
I agree with killing off Dee Dee. She's such an integral part of Dexter's Lab. And to kill her off really limits Dexter as a character. I can only take so much emo Dexter.

Oh you've got a point there.
It would've been more interesting if Dee Dee was still alive and helped the two become closer.
(The story could've been more entertaining then.)

Yup. These characters aren't one dimensional or stereotypes. They have wonderful personalities to express!

lKGl In reply to TookishPerian [2014-02-13 06:18:42 +0000 UTC]
Ands that's what I attend to do, express there true personalities while making it fun. Even if I have use the original design. (Just until I can come up with my own.)

Sure and I love that song too. Both the song and the drawing inspired me. To tell the truth your drawings inspire me for my comic.
