Finally finished a doodle in procreate! Very much still learning the program. :3 

Snowball isn’t an idiot, he’s 100% aware of Marnie’s crush. However, Marnie has yet to give any indication she actually wants to pursue any kind of relationship with him    (as shown here, she responds to the subject with flustered denials), so Snow has decided not to push the matter. As a teacher Snow is primed to always keep people’s comfort level in mind, and the last thing he’d want is for Marnie, a small, sweet bunny, to feel pressured by him, an enormous oaf of dog. If anything is going to happen between them, it must be Marnie who decides.

….Snow isn’t a peeeerfect gentleman, however. Despite it all, he’s still a bit of a dumb dog, and dogs tend to be open books as far as feelings go. It’s a shame Marnie isn’t too well versed on canine courtship, because Snow is showcasing all the signs- giving gifts (homemade carrot cake, fresh strawberries, etc), prioritizing spending time with her, unthinkingly trying to showcase his strength and courage (rushing to lift heavy objects for her, catching and releasing the spider that’d been terrifying poor Marnie and her classroom of students). He lights up and wags his tail when she greets him, and is known to even do that doggy full body boof happy-wiggle lip-licking-cuz-I-wanna-slurp-your-face thing.

tldr: feelings are reciprocated, both sides are just a little stupid

Oh my gosh they're just so sweet 🥺 This kind of reminded me of Rosemary and Magnolia May (if I remember right, it was a similar situation? Rosemary was aware of Magnolia's feelings but was waiting for her to make the move when she was ready?) I always wanted to see more of their development as a ship :)

Same. These lovebirds need to get together

Damn, I love that rabbit.

Btw, I noticed that pretty much all the times Snowball shows up he has like his tongue out... Was that just a coincidence or is there anything behind it? I know dog's tongues kinda stay out when they have teeth missing, but maybe it has anything to do with the fact he's mute so he doesn't need to do much motion with his mouth/tongue so it stays loose? Or maybe I'm just overanalyzing a doggo with a blep all the time lol

Also, is my boy signing "cute" there?

lopoddity

Haha nah, he just bleps a lot. It’s a visual shorthand to convey his big sleepy/comfy vibes

I'm assuming since students are comfortable shipping them that the younger generations are more comfortable with interspecies relationships? Or are this group in particular just too young to have been brought in on the adult's views on it?

Tbh this was just me and my s/o. We were both putting out "I like u" vibes we just didn't pick up on it until someone else pointed it out lol Snowball and Marnie are super cute tho

The younger students are too naive to have a solid grasp on the social unease toward mixed species couples, they just view their teachers like characters in a fairytale. The older students are aware of attitudes toward inter species couples, but the bolder ones (the starry-eyed rapid shipper types) don’t care. I imagine present day FB is awash in a Twilight-style YA literature craze, where a plain jane prey girl typically gets swept off her feet by a handsome edgy (but not too edgy) predator. The older kids probably approach Marnie/Snow with the same cringey/earnest zeal that irl mid-2000s teens fawned over “teh smexy yaoi” on the internet

Also, question, what brushes do you use in procreate? Your lineart is still super clean even on a new program! :o

PrincessMuffinArt

Marnie, you’re not being subtle. Breathe girl. XD

FancylionFarts

I just love them 🥺. Snowball always looks so snuggly!

Bigsmile

Yep, that's the face of a not liar, buns is TOTALLY convincing the surprisingly perceptive and cynical youth. Silly rabbit

Non-Euclidean Cat

I forget if its been established or not, but are hybrids possible for interspecies couples?

lopoddity

Thanks! :) I used a brush called Mercury for this, though I'm still experimenting to find the right brush/brush settings for me.

All children of interspecies couples (eg. Priscilla) are technical hybrids, in that while they may share a species with just one parent, they've still inherited a select number of traits from the other parent (eg. Priscilla isn't a lion but she did inherit her mom's blue eyes). However TRUE hybrids, the kind that exist in our world, are only possible between two species that are closely related. A dog and a wolf are quite similar genetically, and could this produce a viable wolf-dog hybrid offspring. A horse and a donkey can make a mule, a lion and a tiger can make a liger, etc, etc. True hybrids are not possible between unrelated species- for example, a dog and a fox may look similar, but cannot produce a true hybrid, only either a dog pup or a fox kit. Marnie and Snowball are incapable of producing a bunny/dog hybrid, only either puppies or bunnies, though even that possibility is complicated by their large size difference. A pregnancy between them would be pretty risky for Marnie. :/

Robo87

*has war flashbacks at the mentions of Twilight and yaoi*

Robo87

They’re so stinking cute 🥰 Now THIS is a slow burn workplace romance I can get behind (yes I’m throwing shade at Aggretsuko. No spoilers for the last season but now I am filled with raaaaaage)

lopoddity

Haha, I watched the first episode, realized Haida had taken Retsuko’s place as main character, and decided to nope out. I’ve heard about certain events that happen in the season and I’ve heard they aren’t done well. :/ So instead I binge-watched all five seasons of She-Ra on Netflix and that was fuggin *chef’s kiss*, lemme tell ya

Robo87

WE MUST BE STRONG AND WE MUST BE BRAAAAVE!! I actually just finished like my 5th rewatch lol LOVE She Ra. THE queer cartoon of my dreams
