JJ looked down and saw his boner for the first time in his life.
,
should i take a sentence or two to explain that or just charge on
Ah. A "Speechless" thing?
If your description mentions that, then chances are none of your readers will need any further explanation. After all, folks don't generally read stories based on characters from shows they've never seen.
Is this supposed to be the opening sentence of a story?
JJ looked down and saw his boner for the first time in his life.
That would be a very compelling hook as an opening sentence. It would be impossible not to read further into the story.
Was JJ blind and magically just acquired sight?
Mom always said I'd go blind if I looked at naked people, but I've never heard that having a boner would restore vision.![]()
Um.. I'd assume he was 12 at most, and if I kept reading it would be to see if the story needed reporting. Any male abnormal enough to be having his first erection at 18 is going to be too weird for me to relate to in any way.
That said, if it was the opening line I'd immediately describe what he did with this new erection-thing he's discovered, and leave the reader wondering for a while how this odd state of affairs came to be. But I can't think of any explanation than a dream sequence.
I'd expect Laurel to go over it with a fine tooth comb.
That's the one above. What is this 'cp' he has?Post #6, guys.he has cp and shared his bedroom with two younger sibling
I've seen no references to fanfic/celeb stuff in this thread. Was your response meant elsewhere?OP, this is the problem with fanfic/celebrity stuff. If you're writing for a general audience who doesn't know the show, you have to explain too much or people report you...
^ I did some quick googling based on the meagre information here. We're apparently talking about fanfic of a tv show called "Speechless", and the character has a condition called "Cerebral Palsy", which appears to be a physical disability, and possibly also mental disability, if I understood it right. How all this relates to boners, I still don't know.
So, to answer the original question: yeah, you absolutely should explain what on earth is going on.
