I finally drew my cowboy character for @drizzledrawings Cowbians contest. He's a pansexual I shot with the Australian beam.

He's a bit of a reference to actual bushrangers like the one who took hostages in a hotel and the hostages thought he was nice and he did it just to make the cops look stupid. and a bit of a reference to family members and just shit I like lmao. Enjoy, I finally drew him and it's an AU lol I chose Dingo because they are alone, only meeting to mate and are capable of travelling large distances. (They can also open doors because their wrists are capable of turning knobs but that's unrelated)

Lore under the cut

Jesse was born to Irish convicts who were sent to Australia, having served their time and living as free they had Jesse, a Shearer travels from station to station in the summer, following the work and sending money back to his folks. As a young man he was on his way to his next job he crossed through gold rush territory which typically was dangerous due to bushrangers and others keen to rob the newly rich but he was young and dumb and it was quicker to cut through the newly discovered gold area. Unfortunately he came upon some unfortunate individuals who beat him when he had nothing really worth stealing, causing him to shift for the first time. The problem was people heard the commotion and went to help, witnessing this shift and setting him up on a path outside the law as shifters were something to eradicate, especially since they would pose a threat to law since it's harder to imprison someone who can shift and flee.

He's pansexual and wears a feather of a red tailed black Cockatoo, a boyfriend he used to have until he was killed, just hunted for fun with no knowledge he was a shifter. He took one of his tail feathers when he couldn't carry him with him anymore so he always has a part of him and a reminder never to get that close to people again.

Now at 35 Jesse is a Bushranger, with skills of survival he was taught by his father who feared the English would revoke his new freedom and wanted to prepare his son for the it, He now lives alone, travelling across Australia with his horse: Bandit, a Blue Roan Australian Stock horse and weapons from coppers. His crimes are robbery and sometimes schemes designed to publicly humiliate police's failures since he hold anger for being forced to into this life and how his parents were treated for their crimes of petty theft.

Eleanor woke up with his name on her lips, her limbs tangled in the sheets. Her breathing heavy and her skin hot and sensitive.

Jesse was someone she had formed a bond with, he had saved her life and had shared many moments together. She swallowed as she recalled the dream, of him holding her close, his lips trailing hot kisses along her neck and shoulders. How his hands gripped her and how amazing he felt felt against her.

That longing in her chest returned and she whined, covered her face as if to ward away the burn she felt in her cheeks. She had to admit, she missed him.
