I just made him and I love him and I named him Dante. He's a people-pleaser.

I also just need a smaller non-buff guy because I wanted to do an experiment. If I started with small guy how many times do I have to draw them before they end up super buff. Like all my characters. Let's find out. I'm guessing..... three times. Counting this one.

Me to Dante: what's it like living my dream

Dante-gizer, he keeps growing, and growing, and growing... 😜

Aw, that poor little “bleh” face.

Almost 6 years later, it's very funny to see how he started, and to learn why you created him.

Also, funny thing you may not know: Dante is actually a shortened form of the poet's real name, which was Durante. Nowadays, that means "throughout" but, at the time, it meant "lasting", "enduring"...

I love him! Is there a reason he looks so tired?

So, fun story about Dante (the Italian poet). 150+ years ago when the Italians were deciding they were going to be one country instead of a bunch of little city-states, they realized they needed to come up with a unified Italian language for official use (because all the different city-states had their own dialects). And they eventually settled on using the form of Italian from Dante's 'Inferno' as the basis for modern Italian because basically everyone knew it already, and it was deemed to be the 'most beautiful' Italian.

imagine your poetry self-insert fanfiction that you wrote to spite everyone becoming the basis of an entire language

And being read dramatically in town squares with reasonable frequency. I've been to one or two before. People get really into it.
