I’ve spent the past couple of days giving into the urge to draw the lead characters from Stopfkuchen (1891), by Wilhelm Raabe.
I’m not sure if Tubby/Stopfkuchen/Heinrich has a moustache. The narrative doesn’t specify, but he is living in the late 19th century, so...?
Headline: AREA NERD REVEALS HOW HE WOOED FIERY REDHEAD
Tubby: Uh..... by treating her like a human being... I guess?
“But wasn’t her father a murd—-”
Tubby: “SORRY CAN’T HEAR YOU OVER THIS IDYLLIC FARM”
Valentina: (putting down cookbook) “Look, If you don’t stop pestering us, I WILL let my husband tell you about his fossil collection until you beg for mercy.”
