History Webcomic / BoyMeetsBoy

* LysistrataGambit: Harley pulls one of these on Mik when the latter won't buy him a UsefulNotes/PlayStation2. It only lasts a couple hours before Mikhael cracks.

%% * {{Bishonen}}: Tybalt, Aubrey, and arguably Cy, Harley, and Skids.

%% * HollywoodNerd

%% * LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters

* BetterAsFriends: Cy and Skids initially, although WordOfGod is that they didn't even end up as friends - they lost contact.

* {{Bishonen}}: Tybalt, Aubrey, and arguably Cy, Harley, and Skids.

* BreakTheCutie: Happens to poor little [[spoiler: Skids]]
* BrilliantButLazy: Its shown that Harley actually is a very competent singer and musician, however his biggest problem is that Mik pretty much completely supports him financially, and his bandmates are also his best friends so they are more likely to just hang out and mess around than actually look for gigs to play.

* CanNotSpitItOut: Cyanide's love for Skids, as well as Skid's love for Harley.

* CleaningUpRomanticLooseEnds: The end of the comic pretty much quickly wraps up the several accounts of unrequited attractions that had been left unresolved[[spoiler:, Cy gets back together with his old internet girlfriend, and Skids and Tybalt become a couple after Skids realizes lusting after Harley was futile.]]
* DepravedBisexual: Tybalt. Emphasis on the depraved.
* EasySexChange: Aubrey somehow managed to go from zero to testosterone and top surgery in a year.[[http://boymeetsboy.keenspot.com/d/20020910.html]]
** Though a later comic reveals that secretly Aubrey hasn't had bottom surgery yet, but refuses to tell anyone because he fears it will make him seem like less of a man.

* EtTuBrute: The cause of Mik's split with ex-boyfriend Tybalt.

* GreenEyedMonster: Mik's major character flaw.
* HollywoodNerd

* LighterAndFluffier: Sort of, in retrospect. Anyone who backpedals from ''Webcomic/OtherPeoplesBusiness'' to ''B.m.B'' is in for a heck of a culture shock. It's hard to believe that this was the jumping off point for the arcs in the late ''Webcomic/FriendlyHostility'' and ''Webcomic/OtherPeoplesBusiness''.
** The comic was even a lighter and softer move at the time. Harley and Mik were initially characters from a much darker series she made called ''Utopia'', which is now lost forever. She was unhappy with it, and didn't like the dark and depressing nature, and decided to make ''Webcomic/BoyMeetsBoy'' as a way of giving the characters a happier life.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters
* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Sort of.
* LoveDodecahedron: See AllLoveIsUnrequited above for more details.

* ManChild (Flash. "There are inflatable women?")

* MundaneFantastic: Although seemingly set in our world, Tabitha is the daughter of Satan with occasional related hijinks ensuing.
** Lets not forget the small storylines around the end where Fox is secretly a superhero and Collin his arch nemesis/ sidekick
* MustNotDieAVirgin: [[http://boymeetsboy.keenspot.com/d/20020826.html This conversation]]

* PlatonicLifePartners: Aurora and Aubrey. Also, Cy and Skids until the final chapters of the comic.
* RelationshipUpgrade: Fox and Collin. Averted with Cy and Skids.

* SatanIsGood: Or at the very least, AffablyEvil.
* ShipSinking: Between Cy and Skids, despite it being a ShipTease for a long time in the comic. In the end, the two not only do not get together, but WordOfGod says they lose contact soon after the comic ends are not even friends anymore.
** To a lesser extent Skids and Harley, although there was very little indication anything would have ever come from it anyway.

* StraightGay: Mikhael is probably the best example.

* StoryArc
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Cy says he didn't have a wet dream about Skids.
** [[http://boymeetsboy.keenspot.com/d/20010412.html Also seen here.]]

* UnluckyChildHoodFriend: Cy to Skids, and Skids to Harley.
* WhamEpisode: It has some doozies.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: Oh boy, does it ever have this.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: The two distinct blue streaks in Collin's hair are an important part of his identity, as they represent something that his parents can't control about his life. As we see in ''Webcomic/FriendlyHostility'', every time he visits his parents' home they force him to bleach the streaks out; the minute he leaves, he re-dyes.
** There's also Fox's hair which is apparently purple in the colored comics.

* MayDecemberRomance: There's a bit of an age gap between Mik and Harley. When they first had sex Harley was only 17. (But Mik didn't know that at the time.)

* AbortedArc: Cy's unrequited crush on Skids; early in the comic this was basically the B-plot of the story, yet as the author grew to personally dislike the Cy character, the story would eventually be abandoned with no reveal nor pay-off (this is presumably due to the fact the author started the comic Cy was based heavily on their then-boyfriend, but after they broke up the author grew resentful of how much the Cy character reminded them of him).

* BiTheWay: Skids... well... is hard to put in a category, and his sexual orientation is never really discussed, only the people he has feelings for.

A romance comic from Sandra K. Fuhr, which you can read [[http://boymeetsboy.keenspot.com/ here]]..

* TheBusCameBack: Aubrey, Harley's 'best friend' introduced very early in the comic, disappeared entirely for years. She eventually comes back again, explaining her absence had been due to gender reassignment into a male, after which he attached himself to Harley's sister Aurora until the end of the comic.

** Aubrey was introduced in the first few comics as 'Harley's best friend', after which she seemed to be written out of the comic in favor of Skids and Cyanide. She does eventually come back, her absence explained to be due to her transgenderism and going through gender reassignment therapy.

* StrawFeminist: Played with in Rasheequa Jackson, who demands to be allowed to join "Boy Band" solely because their ad stated they didn't want any female applicants. Afterwards she realizes the guys reallt weren't misogynistic and that joining them probably wasn't the smartest idea, since they are so close knit and rather lazy.

** The comic was even a lighter and softer move at the time. Harley and Mik were initially characters from a much darker series she made called ''Utopia'', which is now LostForever. She was unhappy with it, and didn't like the dark and depressing nature, and decided to make ''Webcomic/BoyMeetsBoy'' as a way of giving the characters a happier life.
