Joe: (A person wearing a purple t-shirt, a green neckerchief and dark trousers, who is facing the viewer, but looking at Sam. Eyebrows are raised and mouth is open, with very slightly downturned edges. One arm is raised at the shoulder and bent up at the elbow, one finger pointing up and the rest of the hand closed. Joe’s whole torso is inclined towards Sam.) Sam! That’s private!
Panel 2:
Sam: (A person who is facing the viewer, but looking at Joe, with raised eyebrows and an open mouth, which has very upturned edges. One arm is bent up at the elbow, hand open and palm facing up.) Noooo I mean I gave you a T-shot, remember? Or did you forget because it was soooo awesomely done?
Joe: (A person who is facing the viewer, but looking at Sam, with lowered eyebrows, the end of one of them arched slightly. Mouth is closed, and arms are folded across Joe’s chest.)
Panel 3:
(There is a caption at the top of the panel, in a spikey yellow shape. The caption reads:) FLASHBACK!
Sam: (A person wearing a faded red t-shirt, who is facing the viewer, but looking at Tom. Eyebrows are lowered slightly and pushed together, mouth is open, with slightly downturned edges. There are flecks of sweat flying from Sam’s face, and Sam’s whole torso is bent forward somewhat. One arm is raised slightly at the shoulder and bent up at the elbow, in Sam’s hand is a syringe with a needle attached.) How do I do it again? Am I doing ok??!!
Joe: (A person wearing a grey t-shirt and dark trousers, which are down around Joe’s lower thighs. Joe is facing away from the viewer, and is bent forward at the hips, butt completely bare.)
Tom: (A person also wearing a grey t-shirt, as well as glasses, who is facing the viewer, but looking at Sam. Eyebrows are both raised and pushed together slightly, mouth is open, with upturned edges and arms are folded across chest.) You’ll be fine mate.
Panel 4:
Sam: (A person who is facing the viewer, but has closed eyes. Eyebrows are raised and mouth is open, with very slightly downturned edges.) Well…the first time is scary.
Joe: (A person who is facing the viewer, but looking at Sam, with eyebrows raised high, both mouth and eyes open wide, and arms spread wide, from the shoulder.) Scary for me! I’m getting jabbed!!
Nice! I’m surprised the doctor/nurse/medical supervising person let you do that! I bet you did a good job though ;)! Giving needles isn’t too hard.
Nicely drawn Joe-butt, I must say.
I’ve been watching them give Joe shots for over a year, so I had a pretty good idea of how to do it. It makes it heaps more freeing to be able to do it ourselves tho. I’m quite proud of the Joe-butt too!
This is pretty much exactly how I felt the first time I did my partner’s injection. It got easier with time, you’ll be glad to know, but my hand was still definitely shaky for the first half a dozen times. The thing that I found the most helpful was when I started doing my own about three months ago – suddenly it was heaps easier and less scary to do his!
You’re both really brave!
Oooh that’s a good incentive to start T then 🙂 hopefully I can start sooooooooon I’m so itching to!
haha i love this one
Ha, when my Boyfriend was getting his first T-shot I think I was way more scared then him. I kept telling the person ”DON’T JAB HIM TOO HARD, HE HAS A SOFT BUTT”.
hahaha, awww cute!
Congrats must of been interesting thoughts running through both your heads just before hand 😀 , I imagine ! Glad it went well 🙂
Yes! I think Joe was way more relaxed than I was, but yes, it did go very well in the end!
My boyfriend helps me with my Estrogen shot every week, hehehe
