I am REALLY proud of this artwork, I usually hate colouring and shading but i genuinely believe I did alright with it!
Greaser and Fresh my beloved… I’m surprised greaser didn’t go for the milk the second their child was born on tomodachi life:living the dream /hj /silly
I have a feeling my drawing of fresh holding a bottle of bubbles happened to be an SMALL inspiration for someone which I would be very VERY happy if so BUT I DON’T WANNA ASSUME WAAAA
It’d be awesome if we saw artz of fresh and greaser roller skating together. . . fresh being hella good at roller skating meanwhile greaser is just trying to keep balance.
Notboyfriend participates in one of his notboyfriend’s hobbies. He’s trying his best.
Realistically, I think Greaser would be a pretty composed drunk, high tolerance and all that. Certainly he’d be more flirty with that liquid confidence in him. But if he was really trying to mess himself up, he’d be the saddest, wettest drunk in the multiverse. Not crying so to speak, but definitely moping around and saying things he’d never have the guts to say sober.
In this particular instance, Fresh is the catalyst that makes him a more active drunk. Greaser’s hidden affection towards fresh makes him flirt with him and he’s more eager to let his guard down and be silly and playful. He says all the things he secretly things but never says, now that he has the gift of not remembering it in the morning.
Then his resentment and fear (from fresh “forcing “ him to be vulnerable and have attachments again) spikes in the moment fresh is taking care of him. He feels coddled. so he lashes out.
Of course he regrets it, he regrets it instantly. With his liquor loosened pride out of the way, he can’t hide it. And it’s like a dam is broken, all of his regrets: pushing fresh away, taking him for granted, being a selfish jerk who’s never learned from all his past relationships. He really likes fresh, he doesn’t want to leave, he feels like he has to though. To protect himself.
In the end when Fresh brings him home, he won’t say anything. Partly because he doesn’t even have the tools to tackle whatever Greaser is going through. It’s confusing, Greaser’s happy, then angry with him, then crying the next. It’s not like he could even understand those drunk ramblings.
Greaser’s latest design! I didn’t change much with his actual character design, just the shape language.
Not only did I feel like the softer way I was previously drawing him wasn’t really doing him justice or wasn’t exuding the right energy for his character, it was also really hard to replicate the head shape and it was really obvious how I drew him differently everytime.
Also a bonus sketch of Greaser using his magic.
He’s definitely an all bark no bite guy, and doesn’t fight whatsoever. Big flashy moves like the ones usual Sanses can do are quite hard for him to pull off, so he improvises and imbues his magic into whatever object he has. Usually a cigarette.
So whenever he finds himself in a fight, he sprays a large cloud of smoke and books it. It’s usually harmless unless he has intent to stun his enemies, in which the smoke causes irritation as well.
Super duper self indulgent one very cutesy comic I like it a lot, I also like embarrassing Greaser a lot he needs that nonchalant act taken down NOOWWW
This is probably one of my second to last comics before Greaser’s design was seriously starting to bother me and I changed it, will be posting that later
I also made this directly after the last comic, because I like some nice fluff after angst
For context this comic is based in the world I made in the Tomodatchi Life demo. So it’s just a bunch of indulgent out of character slop.
just wanted to have them say nice stuff to each other for once
Also wanted a hint of existential uncanny valley in the background I couldn’t help it
Also yeah Dream is there lol. In the game Dream ended up falling for Greaser and Fresh ended up falling for DREAM and Fresh and Greaser became “Ultra Friends.” Did not go how I expected it at all sighhh but I live for QPR GreaserFresh it’s so special to me.
Fresh maybe not being able to have romantic love specifically because he just. Can’t. It’s not possible because it’s not programmed in him. But he can still have deep platonic connections. And Greaser if he maybe never got over his fear of commitment, or more preferably was tired of using other people’s feelings to make himself feel better, decided to opt out of the dating scene for a while. So they both grow closer, and form a bond neither of them could describe as more than “really close friends” because none of them have the emotional awareness nor the vocabulary to label it. But still they cherish it deeply and don’t want to lose it. Also maybe they sometimes still kiss bc they’re chill like that.
Is my birthday today! I would like to hear about your Greaser and Fresh please :3
Like.. how did they meet? What is their relationship like, etc!
🎉🍰 OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY!!! 🍰🎊🎉
*giggles and kicks my feet*
oh boy oh boy! Greaserfresh!! My favorite!!
Lets go into how they met!!🌈
Its literally a bullies-to-lover trope i fear now that I think about it LMAO
They met at the start of highschool, their freshman year!!
This was also right as Fresh was starting to fully feel emotions, and of course before his transition, so he was a mess in highschool.
Greaser was a bully, he pushed people around, flirted with every girl, and walked like he owned the place. He at the time, definitely looked alot more like his already canon design! more greaser-style, less comfort and more style! Not like how he is currently!
Continue below for the rest!!🌈
I don't wish to flood posts <3
Fresh was Greaser's target the moment he laid eyes on him, his flashy saturated wardrobe, bright accessories, and even flashier way of speech! Not to mention the fact when he first met Fresh, he was still wearing skirts, dresses, things considered girly.
He probably would have flirted with Fresh if it weren't for the "strange" wardrobe! Fresh got pushed around a bit at the start, not much, but that is until Fresh started to dress more masculine! More jackets, pants, chunky sneakers, and still all with that color!
Safe to say Greaser was, well... not exactly threatened by it? He was confused, and in his nature he pushes back on what confuses him, which leads to him pushing further on Fresh!
Greaser absolutely did not like him, did not understand why a female dressed like that! did not like how he dressed, how colorful he was, not to mention the constant censoring whenever he was near by!
It wasn't something he grew up, as his side of town is in the era of the 50s!
Their relationship was really a one sided enemy type at the time lol
However, the bullying doesn't last long. It only lasts a year at most!
Which begs the question on how they even grew close?
Well, I don't exactly remember the idea I had, but it leads to Greaser being the one to defend Fresh, which leads to them growing closer as friends despite their crazy differences.
They were a crazy duo, usually seen together when not in their respective group of friends, and going through every school day messing around like friends do!
Fresh liked him from the start, and while still figuring out his emotions, he wasn't 100% sure as to why? But it was something he kept to himself for awhile, even when Greaser was bullying him.
That like solidified itself as a crush, and by the time they were friends he knew he was in love! But he just wasn't sure how to describe it?
Greaser's affections were unintentional, and he fell in the midst of their friendship. Something about Fresh had him tied, but oh he couldn't.
He couldn't commit, he's had his heart broken before and despite being the one to break the previous hearts he let simmer, he didn't want to get attached. But he did.
It was their junior year when Fresh confessed his feelings, in the empty hall during lunch time. Greaser was taken back by it, and genuinely?
he ran. He ran away. He freaked out and ran like A COWARD!!💥
And obviously it hurt Fresh's feelings!! And of course he broke down, because he's still trying to handle his emotions.
Greaser later approaches Fresh, after school when they're waiting on the curb for family. It leads to them having a semi-heart to heart, Greaser admitting his own feelings and Fresh accepting them.
They were both messy teenagers in love with issues its great!
Anyways, they date! the rest of their junior year till the end of their senior year. But, at the end of that senior year, Fresh comes to Greaser with news that him and his family are moving, for reason in regards to his older brother's health. Both of them are upset, because it means not seeing each other!
So Fresh, the day he's to leave, slips one of his rings onto Greaser's hand and declares that their paths will cross again, a promise ring.
Promising that they'll see each other when the time calls for it, and despite Greaser not being one for commitment? he never took that ring off. They lost contact once the move happened, and life went on!
Greaser went about life waiting and hoping to see Fresh again, getting hit on by others and invited for dinner and all sorts of stuff!
Yet he'd look down at that ring and go, "Sorry, I got someone waiting for me." He held out, he's committing to someone who he isn't even sure he'll see again, one of his biggest fears.
Then years pass, and they end up reuniting when they were both 26!!
It was literally a moment of chance, Fresh spotted him going towards his motorcycle from a store front, and actively tackle-hugged him when he realized it was Greaser.
ITS SO CHEESY BUT OH THEY DESERVE CHEESY!!!!!
I'm obsessed with these two on a level only my best friend can understand, shout out to SUNNY!!! GIGGLES
Comic WIP that I’m feeling pretty iffy about errrgh 😬 felt a little too heavy for my liking and kinda felt a little sick about it but then I softened the ending so it’s a little bittersweet and I’m okay with it now
Still I dunno I might not post it on Tik tok. Decided to post on here to get first trial opinions even though I don’t get much activity. And so I can rant about/disect each panel lol
I decided to make this to kinda I dunno disect Fresh and Greaser’s relationship with kissing. I like to call Fresh AAA (agender aromantic asexual) , kissing to him is not too important. More so a recreational activity if that makes sense.
But to greaser kisses are like, everything and nothing at the same time. He’s a flirt. Maybe to distract himself. Maybe as a way to get some sort of validation and comfort without having to get too deep into it. He wants something that can make him feel anything that’s not the numbness he constantly feels but also just doesn’t want to think at all of the consequences of his actions.
I do think a kiss too soft and tender would set him off. Make him suspicious for a lack of better words, set off alarm bells in his head. “Why are we kissing like this? Do they like me? Do I like them? So I need to jump ship right now?” He seems like the guy to be hot cold and finicky.
They’re both similar in that they don’t really care about how kissing affects the person they’re doing it with. (With fresh actually being more oblivious than actively harmful but I digress)
And I think it would lead to a situation where Greaser (intentionally or not) uses kissing Fresh as a distraction from I dunno his emptiness? His overwhelming self hate and depression?
Fresh with his lack of emotional awareness might not notice, though if he did Fresh would be confused and conflicted. Yes, he likes kissing Greaser, but clearly he’s??? Acting weird and upset?? And no matter what i imagine it’d be kinda awkward to kiss someone while they’re crying.
He might still do it because well. If it really does help then it helps I guess. It’s weird but he doesn’t understand most social practices to begin with, if it helps it helps!
In this panel Fresh wasn’t intentionally trying to be soft, he was just trying to get a better angle of Greaser’s face. But still, Greaser is so unstable that it sets him off. He doesn’t believe he deserves nice things happening to him.
I don’t know if he’d cry though. I drew it and I don’t like how it feels out of character. He really doesn’t seem like a crying guy but I just don’t really know how else he’d break. He’s just so tired.
Don’t be gentle, he says as he leans into the touch. I make way too much angst jc.
Originally I was going to have the ending cut off at the part where Fresh just says okay. But it left even me feeling sick and I didn’t like it. Just how hopeless it felt. Like fresh was willingly letting Greaser use Fresh to hurt himself and I really didn’t like it. I don’t know.
