Life is a Beach

"*Gasp* Gordy, this place is beautiful!"
"Yes, my dove, it's very nice...."
"And look at the water! There's so much of it!"
"Mmhmm..."
"Let's gather a bunch of sea shells to take back with us!!"
"You...go ahead and start without me. I'll join you in a moment. I'm just going to lie down and have a little....heat stroke..."


When it's hot af outside and you can feel yourself dying from the heat, but you endure it because the bae is having a good time.
Tag yourself, I'm Gordon.


I've been wanting to draw Gale (bab on the right) with Gordon ever since I got them from SmallTimidBean in a match-maker trade. (If you aren't watching them already, I highly recommend doing it. Like right now, go go go. Their art and ocs are fantastic.) 


No idea what I want Gale's hecking gender to be yet, so I'm sticking with they/them pronouns.

Pretty much the backstory of this piece is that Gale, having grown up in an enchanted forest of sorts, has never actually seen a beach before. Gordon, who can't resist spoiling Gale, quickly offered to take them to one when it came up in a conversation. He did this despite knowing fully well that he can't handle the summer heat at all and can't even sit in the shade without sweating bullets. Though he'll gladly grin and bear it so his "dove" can enjoy themself.

( Also I just realized I drew Gordon with plantigrade legs OOPS. Though he can technically be plantigrade or digitigrade since he shapeshifts? I guess it's just a matter of preference at the time. )
