It's Always Better Together

I'm going to take part in the 30-day OTP challenge. Normally, I don't do this, but something really struck me about these two free-spirited girls who challenge gender normativity and yet don't mind being lovey-dovey toward one another. This is for the recently revealed pairing of Becky and Dodge of The Casagrandes. The couple caught me off guard in multiple ways. I'm all for the relationship, but I can't beat around the bush; this couple is unique. They're interracial, lesbian, wild girls, jerks, jocks, boorish...and they're not even teenagers. There have been some instances of younger LGBTQ people in animation. Tomoyo Daidouji was confirmed as a lesbian at age 10 and crushing on her second cousin, Sakura. There is nothing truly new under the sun. Almost everyone on that show seemed to stray from straight, but I digress. By the way, I expect more of what I will call Dodgcky in season three of The Casagrandes. Make it so!

Here are the 30 different prompts that I will tackle for this couple.

Holding hands

Cuddling

First meeting

On a date

Kissing

Wearing each other's clothes

Third wheel

On a rainy day

Hanging out with friends

First pet/child

Swimming

Christmas

Comfort

Jealousy

Injury

Morning ritual(s)

A memory

Favorite spot

In formal wear

Dancing

Betrayal

In battle, side-by-side

Arguing

Selfie

Gazing into each other's eyes

Getting married

On one of their birthdays

Doing something ridiculous

Doing something sweet

Doing something hot

Three final notes I'd like to make. None of these stories are meant to fall within the same canon or timeline (unless otherwise stated), this series is a first-run AO3 exclusive, and tags are subject to change based on subject matter within the prompts. I hope you enjoy and join me on this unique journey to tap into a new pairing!
