TRIGGER WARNING: needle and blood

I love Max and Goofy’s dynamic (at least when they’re getting along) and I love the Max piercing agenda so I drew this

I think Goofy’s a good dad and I love showing that part of him :)

After this they talked about it and Goofy let Max get gauges for his 17th birthday and then Max went ham on the other piercings the day he turned 18 (Goofy’s rule)

Image IDs:

[Image ID. Panel 1. A human version of Max Goof is sitting next to a table with a glass of ice on it. With one hand he’s holding up his bottom lip and with the other he’s holding a needle. He looks determined. Text with an arrow pointing to him says “Age 16, trying to give himself a snake bite piercing because Goofy won’t let him get a professional one.” Text with an arrow pointing to the glass of ice says “for numbing.” End ID.]

[Image ID. Panel 2. A human version of Goofy is sitting and reading a newspaper. The newspaper is called The Spoonerville Times. The newspaper has a story titled “Steamboat Willie found dead in Miami,” “Della Duck returns from Lunar Sabbatical,” and a random Garfield comic. Goofy hears Max tell “DAAAAAAD?” behind him as he looks surprised and a bit worried. End ID.]

[Image ID. Panel 3. Max walks into the room behind Goofy looking mildly startled while holding two crumbled up bloody tissues. Blood is pouring from a small puncture wound below his lip. There’s a trail of blood on his shirt and a small splat of blood on his jeans. He says nervously “I, uh….kinda uh..” Goofy looks at him shocked and horrified. His eyes lack pupils, his mouth is wide open in shock, and his hair is standing on end. He shouts “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH HOO HOO HOOEY!” End ID.]

[Image ID. Panel 4. Max has a gauze bandage on his cheek and is holding a small bag of frozen peas to it. He looks regretful and remorseful with his eyes closed. Goofy is standing next to him, rubbing the top of his head as he lets out a sigh of exasperated relief. End ID.]
