BMZ - Test (6/10) (WIP & PSD)
🕑 Added 2023-04-08 22:29:27 +0000 UTCSorry for the delay on the WIP, today was a mess.
Double apology for the blatant reuse of the background I made for the christmas strip, Drive poster and all.
I don't think it was ever in question that either of them would get a positive result and the test is just a formality so I hope no one was expecting a very sudden mood shift.
As previously established Miles has never had a boyfriend before so unprotected sex is something new to him and he's a huge dork about it.
One thing I struggled with this strip is the punchline, and this is a little dark but fuck it, I like to be transparent about the creative process so here we go: the joke is pretty obvious, Boomer has a son, so of course he's had unprotected sex, and the original line was "Miles, I have a son", the implication is obvious. However, I've had so many people request in DMs that I do boomer/zoomer stuff that "I have a son, and i've had bareback sex" might have another connotation to some people that I really, really don't want anywhere near my work and I think the revised line avoids it better. Might sound a little paranoid, but reading that shit ruins my day and I'd prefer doing anything I can to avoid it.
I wondered whether I should delete that paragraph but eh, I needed to get that off my chest.

No worries man, believe it or not I had the same thought process when I read it. I imagined B just saying βummmm, hello! πZoomer?β And then I too realized the undesirable implications that line might have.

Sometimes you have to tell your viewers where your line is at. You dictate how you want because itβs your material.
