It's now impossible to see Warlock's responses to the question "What makes Doug special to you?" without thinking Rocky and Ryland Grace and even hearing the emoji-speak in Rocky's voice.
"Doug never looks at self like self is evil/bad"
"Doug always look at self with love/affection"
"Doug is strong and protects self"
"Self is growing because of Doug"
Hmmm, I do wonder if the cover art for Nicholas Fisk's 1971 novel, "Trillions" about a human kid who makes a deep psychic connection with the strange and minute alien crystals which have fallen from the sky across Earth, might have impacted how Alan Davis defined the look of Douglock in 1986

Careful Doug, I think Warlock is sneaking bits of your breakfast whilst you're distracted by him playing cute!
(Oh who am I kidding, he's not playing cute, he IS cute)

A hand, constructed of wires, a mass of a chaotic organism reaches out. It tangles itself in golden blond hair, the deceptively sharp tips caressing the curve of the pale cheek of a sleeping man. Good morning, it says, gentle sparks dancing on the surface of the skin. One eye opens, tired and desperate for another hour, even half, or maybe just a few minutes.
Tired and desperate, but so very blue. The hue that Warlock has grown to associate with kindness and warmth. The color that hugs are, the color he would paint the walls of the whole room and all the furniture inside of it. The color of blue where he saw the first signs of kindness and that later gave him the first taste of love.

(A small relationship study, and not strictly tied to a specific time in canon. No actual smut, just a vague description.) Happy to recommend this charming little fic about my two favourite boys weird relationship. Not one I wrote, but I sort of wish I had.
The Team Supreme looking super-awesome courtesy of artist Sean Clauretie aka Sean Clarity in Instagram, who I would thoroughly recommend checking out
The fact he feels that these two could have had their own Satursday morning cartoon show: plucky well meaning but out of his depth hero with wisecracking mechamorph partner?
I LIKE the way his mind works!

Bodyhorror, but make it adorable!
Doug and Warlock in their early days at Xavier's School, by @leighwortley who's work is just beautiful (also goes by @stem-cell )
In fact, so good I wrote a rather fluffy story inspired by it....
Some important moments for Doug and Warlock in New Mutants Special Edition #1
Establishing Doug not liking feeling like the weak link
That hug, as Warlock rescues Doug, and Warlock's instinctive urge to wrap himself round Doug to protect him (again)
To the realisation that just because Doug is (ahem) inside Warlock doesn't mean he can't help out with his clearer focus
And before you think it's all one sides, with Warlock doing everything for Doug with no return, we move to X-Men Annual #9 which follows on from this story, when Doug finds an injured Warlock.
Warlock picks up on Dani's Valkyrie vibes (long story) and his first reaction is to save his favourite squishy pal
Whether he likes it or not!
Which then leads to the... next stage in their relationship
Ahem... "Dr Metaphor to the blue courtesy subtext please"
And Art Adams' art is super gorgeous here too. Look at how cute these two are, in their own entirely different ways.
