overworked stress paintinggggg

the scenario i had in mind is something along the lines of, ’after the breakup, jake has one of those out of nowhere realizations one day that he really likes dirk.’ i’m sorry, super corny, I know DDD: 

(…of course, after this it plays out with a lot of stress and unnecessary(?) angst, because jake’s convinced dirk still hates him, and dirk is convinced that any liking on jake’s part MUST owe to manipulation, haha.)

also, dirk’s skin tones are ganked directly from this sargent self portrait!
