#cute curtwen

[itsjusteds]

As we know, I cannot stop thinking about a Curtwen Music Man date (its gonna be a chapter in a fic I'm writing). While in canon, they couldn't have seen it together because opening night was in December of 1957, it's my fanfic so I control time, so I moved that day a couple years ahead and now it's possible.

Agent Curt Mega is a HUGE Robert Preston fan, and his bf Owen Carvour knows that. So Owen used his powers of persuasion (and a little bit of blackmail) to get Curt and him opening night tickets to Music Man

Curtwen Week Day 6: Happy Ending

[spout1nk]

Curtwen Week Day 2: I'm Your Man - Mitski.

Continuing on with @curtwen-week. My styles for these pieces will be changing depending on my mood and the prompts. xD

[eli-am-confused]

I’ve seen some gender bending around and I wanted to draw them. So here’s some tragic lesbians.

Picture one

Owen: Hello Love. You were supposed to live a long, happy life.

Picture two

Curt: Sorry O. I missed you.

Picture three

Owen: it’s quite alright darling. I’ve missed you to.

Cute stuff

[smytherines]

I don't even... like... I don't have words at this point

[kairithemang0]

this is every curtwen fluff fic I’ll ever write

[midnight-train-of-thought]

If I don’t go to bed soon I’m going to end up being up til 3am drawing and sobbing over some sort of gay fanfiction

[amazingmsme]

curt is the type to beg so so hard for owen to stop tickling him but actually be thinking “DO NOT STOP”

lucky for him owen never does bc his begging just makes him want to keep going more

This is just so Curt, I love it! Like he’s 100% the type to say stop & not mean it! The first few times Owen tickled him, he did stop when he was told & then Curt was all pouty for the rest of the day & he never knew why. At first he thought he might’ve bruised his ego & he was being salty about that, but Owen’s a smart cookie so he managed to figure out the real issue pretty quick. & then Curt never knew mercy again😌

[glittter-skeleton]

either curtwen or the spankoffski bros. just… being happy? having a good time? smiling? ALL OF THEIR CONTENT IS ANGST AND I DO NOT HAVE THE STRENGTH IN MY HEART FOR IT- 😭

Not Completely angst-less but still sorta cute, right?

[spyruce]

thinking about how fucked up curtwen is and how we don’t always account for it

Personally, I think as a group we give Owen way too much slack and empathy. The events of the show may have been kickstarted by Curt, I’d but Owen’s equally at fault if not more. I also think we put way too much in that they were actually so close pre-canon. Their relationship is a product of their situation, not because they we’re perfect for each other. They both had MASSIVE ego issues, and dialogue in A1P1 and One Step Ahead shows that they BOTH have/had massive egos. They clashed, but they were all the other had. At the very least, they understood each other’s situation, but it’s not like they had options.

The reason why I and many others still jump on the bandwagon of this absolute mess of a relationship is just because like… they’re fun. Realism and plot aside who doesn’t wanna take stock in a “found love in a world that doesn’t allow it” in both their sexualities and their lifestyles. The thought that they would chose each other anyway even if it was modern times and could be with anyone else is engaging. They’re traumatized and have cute banter and we’re given so little of pre and post canon to work with that we can do whatever the hell we want. Do I think there’s any good reason Curt should’ve let Owen live at the end of the show? Absolutely not. (Like actor Curt Mega himself said, it was kinda equivalent to putting down a dying dog out of its own misery.) But redeeming Owen in fanworks despite this is fun, so who gives a crap?

So that’s my take on it. Canon Curtwen is an unstable mess that was always on borrowed time, but adding layers and flair to what they have in the musical using little lines of dialogue and reasoning to justify it is uhhhh really stupid fun!! So I spend my free time drawing them being cutesy together anyway.

Gah, all this shout out stuff I'm seeing for my artist mutuals is so cute and deserved so lemme also do it cuz i love them 😔✨💛💛💛 [I actually have SOO many people i love and adore its ridiculous, but i'll keep this "short" by shouting out the very small circle I followed when i first started to make fanart 👉👈]

And by "Short" i mean im gonna add a cut cuz i never shut up :3c @booigi-boi ~the~ #1 Ted spankofski artist [no room for argument, this is just factual.] The way they draw face's and poses, and hair, and clothes, and joey in general is just absolutely incredible!!!! [The moment I saw her art I was just awestruck, and so ridiculously inspired to start drawing again that it's ended up with me right here now... so if you hate me blame her /J] She just has such beautiful line-work and an ability to create such expressive fun pieces, along with having such a talent of using minimal shading and yet making every art piece look totally decked out. Just!!! its literally all so beautiful. incredible. amazing. [Imagine this goes on for way too long and its incredibly obnoxious.] 🐐💛✨ [She's also just a very neat person in general]

@ricky-mortis [inhumane noises of affection✨💛✨] How do I even start? Their art style isn't only everything to me, but it also just has so much character and personality in it. I love the bold line work they often use, along with their coloring and just gah! everything made by this person makes me so happy every time it pops on my dash, i feel like it has to be impossible not to fall in love with their work! [Also have you seeen how they draw curt mega and all of his characters? god they are so brilliant and fantastic]

@szollibisz/szollibisz2 They have the kind of art that you look at and just can't help but let out a really dreamy sigh tbh✨💛. To me, a majority of their artwork comes off so warm and... nostalgic?[Granted it is probably because of the beautiful use of warm colors and also the time period that comes with Curtwen mostly... but still.] And just, i dunno man. i just really fricken adore this persons art. I remember one of my first thoughts being how much it made me think of those really beautiful short-film animations, usually silent except for some gorgeous instrumental soundtrack in the background... and, just, wow... anyway ~

[Does any of this make sense??? probably not...]

@its-short-for-jackalope this person is SO passionate! Their support towards the things they love, such as tinlightment and Pulp musicals, is everything. I also absolutely love the way their art manages to have this beautiful yet adorable style all while managing to capture the resemblance to the actors they are referencing perfectly! From their simplest drawings to their bigger pieces, i think they are all absolutely wonderful~ These people are just so crazy talented and i appreciate them very much 😔

ALL THE PEOPLE I SHIP ROMANTICALLY WITH THIS CHARACTER: well obviously. ms. holloway. THE power couple of all time. wilbur because it would be funny. and. uh. ted. NOT BECAUSE ITS A BUDGET CURTWEN SHIP. WELL YES. A LITTLE. but also because i read two wonderful fics by amythestunarmed (?) (i think) on ao3 that dstroyed me and i desperately am in need for more content their dynamic is so cute.

MY NON ROMANTIC OTP FOR THIS CHARACTER: probably him and rose. i dont know anything about rose but idk i feel like theyd be a fun duo.

MY UNPOPULAR OPINION ABOUT THIS CHARACTER: okay so i dont really get why i see people all the time being like "everyone treats duke as a sidekick!! we need more love for duke!!" like idk man. he seems pretty popular to me. i see a billion trillion analysis posts for him all the time. maybe because im not really that into the hatchetfield fandom i like dont get it but 🤷 i do think he deserves the attention i love him so much the guy ever!!!!!

HEADCANON: i think ms holloway has a thing about pie??? he doesnt actually like it but he comes to the diner all the time to eat it anyway because homeslice is down BADDDDDD. this might contradict canon but it would be really funny to me if he's shit with animals. or on the flipside. he's TOO good with animals. they follow him around all the time and he doesnt know how to make them go away. modern snow white fr

[starcanwrecked-confessions]

Some SAF fans need to realise there's a middle ground between writing prefall Curtwen as either completely toxic or entirely cute and wholesome and boring lmao. Also I think you should be banned from drawing Curt if you can only draw anime twinks

~~~

[perksofbeingpoet]

to my curtwen followers:

progress is being made!!

helping hand 2 is like halfway done (i think? my brain might come up with more gayness and make it longer, so i can't pinpoint exactly how far along i am) and i'll keep writing it little by little <333

plus i just published the second chapter of a collab fic with the wonderful starpirate, so if you wanna see curt and owen have breakfast together and be idiots who can't apologise (cutely), check it out: https://archiveofourown.org/works/53941588/chapters/137727871#workskin

Curtwen intricate rituals save me... Save me curtwen intricate rituals........

I think about it so much like. All they had was those few times a year they saw each other and maybe some letters or phone calls in between. They had to shape what little they had into something resembling a proper relationship, that truly, neither of them were built for.

I think they felt the same way about a lot of it they just never told each other. Both of them would be too embarrassed to admit that sweeping a room for bugs felt like doing mundane chores together, or that standing back to back in a gunfight made them feel safer than anything else in the world.

I think they just wordlessly constructed these rituals to get the affection and love they both craved but could never ask for. Their wrestling matches had elaborate rules and prizes, their nightly outings to bars were romantic dates in earnest, their mindgames and records on missions could only happen because they trusted and admired each other so much and their letter writing habits included code phrases only they understood.

What makes me go so crazy is how they must've held on to these for years as the best moments of their lives, even after the fall when the memories became soured. They picked up each other's habits and built so much out of so little, all while they rarely if ever truly expressed how much that meant to them.
