cute things;
          cuddles
          when couples out of the blue look at each other, or call to each other, and frequently say i love you
          when couples call to each other across the house, whether it be to say hi or i love you
          snuggles
          affirmations
          reassurance
          gentleness
          when people constantly check with each other to make sure they are both comfortable ahd everythjng is okay
          when people show affection, platonic or romantic, to eacn other, physically or verbally.
          when people create care packs fot their lovers when they are on their period
          when people give their lovers their hoodies
          snuggling into a familiarly scented hoodie/blanket/shirt/etc.

Im spacey, and Im aware of it. I miss entire bits of conversation because of it, and Im aware of it. No, that does not mean I have direct control over it. No, it does not mean I can simply 'pay more attention'. I focus on your words, but my brain still manages to slip away at times. So please, respect when I zone out, respect when I have you repeat stuff occassionally, because I am trying my best, and in no way do I mean to be rude.

Quick idea for anyone looking to do a dave x reader or even a dave x character if they can figure out how to incorporate it,
          Dave and John walking until they see the love interest and suddenly having Dave just kindof stop, staring from behind his shades with his eyes open wide and his mouth slightly open as his cheeks and ears redden, and before you know it Dave is gushing in private to John about the person. However, when in public, Dave tries to be very chill and calm, and when the person comes near Dave or makes conversation with him he internally panics and tries to construct good sentences, stuttering slightly and failing to construct proper wording quite often, and acting like its nothing when its brought up. Just basically, give us more nervous Dave, rather than chill, flirtatious Dave. Thats my opinion, at least.

Character developements that are swoonworthy (in my opinion)
          •Starting out cool and unemotional for the most part and turning easily flustered and freaked out when they are around someone of interest (Bonus points if the someone of interest idolizes them)
          •Starting out angry and spiteful and turning mushy around their person of interest
          •Starting out rude/unsightly/unattractive/etc. with no intention to make an effort to change until their person of interest comes along and they manaage to befriend them and desperately ask them and their friends for their interests to make themself suitable
          •Basically just any characters being extremely vulnerable and mushy to their person of interest and having their person of interest be supportive of them and there for them when they need it
          •Bonus points if a confession happens during a breakdown, for added symbolism and fluff
          •Characters having relationships that aren't the least bit sensual
              •Characters having relationships that only consist of holding hands for the majority of their pairing until eventually something/someone causes them to kiss accidentally and both get equally flustered in their own ways, before realizing its not that bad and beginning to use things like butterfly kisses and kisses on the forehead and nose and cheek and such, only daring to go near the mouth for comfort or to show affection.

writing tip for romance and oneshot writers; Rather than always have the characters confident and able to confess with no huge difficulty and kiss immediately afterward, try writing about characters who are extremely shy to confession, characters who dont know how to respond, characters that get so wrapped up in their head about hypotheticals that when their crush eventually confesses to them sheepishly, the can respond only with something like 'what?'. Try writing characters who fall so head over heels for someone, that they hate the persons very guts. Write about characters who fall in love, and later realize their affections were platonic, or even familial. Write about characters who dont get their feelings reciprocated, and qre upset, only to have a loving best friend who they cqn rely on, not in a romantic sense, but in a moirail sense. Write characters who get cheated on and don't go back to the cheat, who don't give the cheat a second chance. Write characters who get in relationships, find out their partner is too controlling, and leave. Don't sugarcoat it and have them come back 'because they care'. Write realism. Thank you for listening to my tedtalk.

Extras: Write about characters who confess/are confessed to, and afterwards are awkward, looking at the person's lips a lot in conversation, generally sheepish, and end up asking blatantly if they can kiss the other person. I don't know about you, but I find this way cuter than them just diving into a kiss write after a confession.

@Garbage_HumanTrash No problem! Your art is really good, and I noticed a progression as I looked through it, so why should that go unnoticed? ^^ Also, I know how hard it can be to spend a lot of time drawing something and have it turn out not to your liking. However, every single one that you labelled as bad or something of the sort was actually really good! Anyways, the main point is, keep up the work because your art is phenominal! ^^
