Im Back With More Basil And Dorian Doodles! I Managed To Complete A Full Page Of Doodles In One Night

I’m back with more Basil and Dorian doodles! I managed to complete a full page of doodles in one night which I haven’t done in a while. Felt good lol. It was super late when I was drawing all of these so 🫢

Okay PLEASE don’t look too close at Lord Henry.. I haven’t drawn him in a very long time and I’m still trying to develop a look for him.

But anyway- so I like to imagine that Lord Henry takes on the role of Cupid between Basil and Dorian, doing anything in his power to get these two together. They like each other and they try to show it, but the other doesn’t pick up on anything, so Harry stepped in to help. (They’re so oblivious it pisses Harry off). He leaves them alone in rooms, he helps one or the other build up enough courage to ask the other out, the whole nine yards. In result, I imagine Basil and Dorian tell him EVERYTHING that happens, and sometimes they get a little too personal 😶 but it’s because they’re excited and have no filter when they’re excited (I included a little funny at the end)

Harry is doing the lord’s work for these two I guess🤷‍♀️

Headcanon time :D

So Basil is a big simp and he likes doing things for Dorian (his love language is acts of service 💅). Sometimes that means buying him flowers while it’s pouring rain outside and delivering them to his house. He buys Dorian flowers at least once or three times a week (depends on his money flow) and switches up what kinds of flowers he buys based on the weather (haha), Dorian’s mood, and his own mood. But all of the flowers he buys are always Dorian’s favorites…and Dorian has tons of favorites. Basil dances right on the lower class line and his money dwindles every now and then. He doesn’t make enough money from commissions to support himself, an art studio, and the rent for his crappy apartment that he’s renting from some people he knows. Dorian, someone who has money and who knows how to finance it better, always tries to help Basil with increasing his prices, evenly spacing out his money for things, and he even tries to convince Basil to let him financially support him (or even move in), the whole shabang. Basil doesn’t accept that help because he’s Mr. “I’ll do it by myself.” Basil’s stubbornness and extreme independence definitely frustrates Dorian from time to time, but he understands why Basil is that way. Basil’s always had to make it on his own even from his early days; it’s all he knows, and he just likes doing things himself. He feels that it’s more fulfilling. But, he definitely does not ration his money correctly. No, he doesn’t spend it all on random stuff or all in one place. He just spends too much of it on his studio and uses whatever’s left to sustain himself and pay rent…and it’s usually never enough for both. Dorian and Lord Henry have tried lending him money. He refuses both. I could go deeper into why Basil’s the way he is but that’s for another time. But all I’ll say is that Dorian just loves him a lot and wants the best for him, and doesn’t want him catching a cold from running around in the rain 🫢. He appreciates Basil’s independence, but he wants Basil to know that it’s okay to ask for help sometimes or to loan money…and that he doesn’t have to buy Dorian flowers every single week (even though Dorian does love the flowers and little notes Basil writes him) 😌. They’re both learning together :)
