decided to do a super casual version of that music meme where you put your music on shuffle and draw what comes to mind!

1. Walk On By - Noosa
I guess I was thinking about Jessica being in love with Lucy, hating herself for getting so attached to someone like her, also a lil bit of mourning the fact that Lucy had left Roseville.

2. No Light, No Light - Florence and the Machines
This was, like, my favorite to draw. The constant up and down of Paulo and Lucy’s relationship, the fact that Paulo will always be desperately and unconditionally in love with Lucy, or at least for a long *** time. He doesn’t necessarily idolize her, but the throne/halo were meant to show that, while he recognizes of all her faults, she’s perfect to him. I felt like there was a lot of Lucy’s habit of disconnecting as well as the consequences for his sleeping with Jess and Rach in this song too. yee.

3. Met Before - Chairlift
this was easy, Daisy recognizing Sandy on the street or some ****. The song is about different realities where you might know someone in one reality and not know them in another, and their relationship going from Best Friends to Who the *** R U seemed like p contrasting “realities”, esp when Sandy prob doesn’t remember Daisy, at least not in the way Daisy remembers her.

4. What it’s all About - Girl Talk
i’ve never drawn dancing before, esp not twerking, im so sorry ; A ; this is a really upbeat song w/ p much no meaning, so i decided it seemed like something Rach would jam to.

5. Mowgli’s Road -Marina and the Diamonds
heheh, Paulo and David gettin baked af and longboarding down a hill, song has a lot of weird lyrics and varying pitches, so it seemed like their goofy, sporadic friendship.

6. Rill Rill - Sleigh Bells
Sandy out partying with her model friends, busy busy with her life and forgetting to call infatuated boyf Mike. Mike idolizing her, interlacing his entire existence with hers, and Sandy just kinda like… doing her own thing?? bc while she loves him, idk how long that love will last as they grow as people, idfk

7. Sweet Girl - Nicole Dollanganger
this one was interesting too, the song is basically about cute lesbian sex, but there’s a line that’s “don’t know who told you/you had a cherry in between your legs”, and I really got caught on that line lmao. So the pic is Daisy’s view of sex being a little more, ehhh not casual?? but like, an experience! Bc while she cares about Abbey, she’s not IN LOVE with him, but she still feels close enough to him to do the do, while he kinda needs love to follow thru with that kinda act.

Wow nice sketches. I like the 4 one most with Rachel. Shes got a lot of junk in the trunk it looks like.

I LOVE YOUR DESIGN OF DAVID omg it's so good

ty blue! yes, fo sho, if only i could draw butts :,0 lmao
THANK U BOX, he would totally have nice neat dreads (that his momma does for him) and wear kitschy gAM3R shirts (that his momma buys for him)

That's actually not a bad idea to do (the music thing). I think I might give it a shot one day. Btw love all the detail you put in explaining the pics, I would've never guessed!

it's really fun to do, i highly suggest it! good for warmups and stuff. Thank u!! lmao, I was worried i put too much, I often type a l o t oops

they'd be such a chaotic, almost abusive couple, hhh i adore your style, it has such a natural flow!!

I agree with Oso-De-Clare in regards of your style, one of the problems that can arise in comics is the flow of the scenes; you seem to have managed quite nicely.

Does anyone else think the implications are kinda... Well.. Uncomfortable?

^^yeah, hence why i see them as a rly abusive couple. Their actions are ficked and not ok, but it seems like something they'd both do. idk if the artist intended this to be romantic?

I don't think this is abusive at all. Scene like this is a cliche. I adore this <3

How is this not abusive? She tries to puch him, then he forcibly pushes her against the wall and kisses her.

She abuses him physicaly, he abuses her sexualy. Sounds like a healthy relationship to me.

oof, the youth of the internet is scaring me.
forced violence like this is not romantic, like maybe gently being pushed against the wall with consent beforehand is romantic. But she wanted to hurt him, with a full on punch and fury in her eyes, and he responds with grabbing and SHOVING her against the wall and forcing a kiss, and he's clearly holding her there, idk, idk, it's ****ed up and please don't think a scene like this is romantic, neela and 7.

forgot my <sarcasm>...</sarcasm> tags, sorry

I would just like to say thank you to Oso-De-Clare and insane677 to catching up with the undertones here. I'm all for crazy myself and I like the picture, but it's nice to know that there are people that recognize and point out that this is, you know, "kids, this is wrong, don't do that" kind of a situation. And not actually the whole page of "D'aww" comments (which i WAS expecting, taking into consideration that this is a popular ship.)

To 7:
Nice one there though))) (I think, Oso-De-Clare was just a bit Sheldon-ish for a moment)

same

She was actually the one who pointed out the problem with their relationship.

IDEAL BCB ENDING

I disappear for a weekend and this happens?

Eh. I ship it.

In fairness @Juan_Pablo, all Sandy ever knew about Lucy's behaviour towards Mike came through the lens of Mike.
It's therefore quite believable, from Sandy's point of view, that Mike was exaggerating and distorting Lucy's behaviour to make his point, and was being unfair to her, making her out as far more unpleasant and abusive than she really was. (of course while WE know that it's all true, Sandy remains blissfully ignorant)

That is, provided that Lucy has become nice and lovely and non-violent now she's away from Mike.. which for the sake of the drawing I SAY SHE HAS!

scientifickitten, you mean Sandy doubting her Maishul? Besides, we see in the comic that Mike was actually downplaying his abuse, and Sandy in tears; "quite believable" is not how i would describe it.

lets be honest here, Paulo would find that to be hot

... I just wanted to draw Mike being sad, that's all! then the context appeared around it.

I'm just saying that Sandy's only point of contact with the rest of the cast is Mike and so he's where all her information would come from. Even if WE know he's downplaying the abuse, SHE doesn't. We mustn't forget that just because we know something doesn't mean everyone else does too.

So in her mind it's technically at least a possibility that he was lying. I'm not making any comments on the probability though.

Daisy looks so cute in that dress!

I did not promised it... so here she is! Blueberry Lucy!
Unfortunately, in line art for now, my promarkers get dry

omf what clean lines, this is so pretty!!

Ow wow blue berry Lucy Love her face. She looks lovely. Your line art is real good.

Paulo looks like if you would take suit's appearance and blended it with Shaggy from Scooby Doo and then gave him darker skin and darker brown hair.

BABY DAISY

Cute.

Nice picture. What i like the most about it is it's cotidianity (is that a word? It is now); just seeing what Rachel and Jessica would be doing any one day; not the main plot, not angst, just one friend helping the other with her hair. I also like the linework and style in general. If there's something i don't like it's its seemly provisional character; do you plan on editing further so it doesn't remain a sketch?

It seems it is. Funny indeed.

Glad to see them happy, specially because is not going to happen in the chapter we're in any time soon. Are they supposed to be cats or have they been species-swapped into dogs? By all else, nice picture; good work.

nooo they arent supposed to be dogs, i guess thats my fault for always giving the things i draw prominant snouts. i should work on that lol. anyway, thank youuu!! i love drawing them all happy cause theyre my faaav

please don't resize! it's a tad big, but it's so you can see all the text and pretty details, ty
Sketch dump, mostly PauloxLucy bc my gOD i love them

Yes, it shows.

I have a personal question @Oso-De-Clare, if you think i'm being indiscreet or just don't want to feel free not to answer: In PauloXLucy, do you indentify with Paulo, Lucy, or neither?

I like Paulo trying to put Lucy's hair in a pony tail. He's doing a horrible job.

paulo and lucy pls

@juan like, as in who do I relate to more? err, if i had to pick probably Lucy bc i feel that emotional mess struggle, lmao. Is that what u meant??
@bluefox yes he is :,) damn dork
@taeshi eee, ok im glad! I just wanted to be safe rather than sorry, i think radial resized some of my stuff before, heheh :9 and ty so much!!! <3 the markers basically all i've been sketching with, lol, they're super fun UwU
