Not trying to ignore the fact that I’m enjoying the story, I just can’t overlook the fact that neither of them has said anything about ‘protection’…
… which has me wondering if your next storyline will include the topic of “unplanned pregnancy” & how the characters will deal (or avoid dealing) with it.
You know, I could have SWORN I wrote a panel when Beth and Emrys were first going to do it at his and Jeff’s place some episodes back where Beth tells Emrys that she’s on the pill -mostly cos it keeps her periods regular. But looking back on those, nothing was mentioned. I’ll have to write something to let everyone know that yes, birth control is used.
I’m not asking for spoilers, just pointing out that this doesn’t negate my point…
… because the only universally available protection that’s 100% effective is abstinence.
It’s very difficult to maintain a clinical level of caution during the throes of passion.
Just a reminder that every form of birth control has two effectiveness for statistics. Ideal use, and actual use. And that while ideal use for abstinence is 100% (99.99etc according to Christians) effective, actual use falls somewhere down around no birth control for teenagers, and only somewhat better for adults.
While I’m asking…
1_) I assume that the wall art was scanned and rotated?
2_) on Pg.915, did you scan the Dr.Who poster art too?
3_) on Pg.911, what can you tell us about the wall art there?

On a different note,
In panel 1, the art on the wall is unfamiliar to me.
Can you tell us what it’s called, and the artist’s name?
