My only ever contribution to a welcome home OC 🤦♀️
I’m a little lazy so here’s a copy and paste from my artfight:
Olive as a character comes off as rather dull and blunt and isn’t a character… at all. Olive works as a backstage worker mostly subdued to howdy shop for minor repairs and shipments. He’s even got a whole signed document emphasizing that he is not allowed, under any circumstances, to ever show himself in any episodes.
Despite this Howdy, as a more talkative and open guy, pushes for him to reach the spotlight and probes into his life to see if he can entertain this new “Hard to please” consumer. Taking and enacting some of Oliver’s opinions into his own shop for better or worse. Hijinks ensue and Olive begins to develop feelings for Howdy, with howdy seemingly feeling the same…
Howdy temporarily added a mango section to his shop after discovering Olives love for them (whether this had romantic or money intention we’ll never know)
Olive lives right next to howdy (apartment style) due to budget cuts.
Olive smells rather floral and prioritizes his smell and hygiene.
Oliver is actually part rat but doesn’t talk much about it since it isn’t apparent.
Howdy deeply admires how Freeform Olive’s hair is and will ask to brush it here and there
There are 4 possible endings: (as info on the motives of the Marlo company and WH lore, as of typing this, is limited)
1. Marlo discovers the relationship and in a desperate attempt to save what’s left of their (mostly Howdy’s) career Olive leaves in the dead of night leaving nothing but a note on where he’ll be and how he’ll still write but cannot ever return
2. Marlo discovers the relationship and “removes” Olive from the program informing Howdy of the changes via a notice letter. All of olives stuff is gone and Howdy has no way to reach him, if he’s even reachable in the first place.
3. (Whatever canonically happens in welcome home happens and I try to fit him somewhere in there 🤷♀️)
4. They live happily ever after with children of their own and raise them to be good people (might post those)
