A commission I had the absolute pleasure of doing for the wonderful people @thenightpost

Of their character The Stranger and the adorable horse Consequence!

incorrect cowboy pickup lines

did it hurt when you fell? off your horse just now, it looked bad.

if I could rearrange the alphabet I would make it shorter because it’s too damn long to remember.

do you have a map? I keep getting lost in this area and need to find my way back south.

save your horse and ride a train. it’s such a long way there, might as well relax a bit!

how was Heaven when you left? last I heard, she came down with lumbago.

have we met before? I think I’ve seen your face on a wanted poster.

do you know what material my shirt is made out of? the shop owner says linen but it feels weird on my skin.

is that a gun in your pocket? because that’s not really safe, you should get a holster.

YES YES YES I am SO hype about queer westerns! some of these feature soldiers, rangers, and outlaws versus strictly cowboys, and some are male x nonbinary pairings, with a few bonus lesbian recs
