Chapter: Chapter 3: Over Coffee
Every time I draw Alex I try to make her more of a thirst trap, and I think it’s working.
TRANSCRIPT
Panel 1 (Alex relaxing in her chair while Imogen looks on in the foreground)
Imogen: I can’t imagine doing it alone. What do you do?
Alex: I’m a musician.
Imogen: I can’t imagine doing it alone. What do you do?
Alex: I’m a musician.
Imogen: No way? Like in a rock band or something? Are you famous?
Alex: Not really? I play the cello. Released a few albums, royalties, rich parents, stuff like that.
Panel 2 (extreme close-up on Imogen’s face as she thinks furiously)
Panel 3 (Imogen, triumphant, holding her phone displaying a YouTube video of a blood-spattered woman in white playing the cello)
Imogen: “Bloody Bride Plays Cello Horror Medley!!”
Alex, scandalized but laughing from inset panel: Oh my god! I’ve done other things!

Definitely working for me
Just remembered that Alex had a tattoo :O the last few pages didn’t have it >.<
Sob… I know…
I want that album!
Loving this comic, love How Baby, but as a musician, I have to mention that Alex is playing reverse cello…her bow should be in her right hand. It’s an easy thing to overlook, and maybe you did it intentionally. But in case you didn’t, and there’s more Alex cello in the future, I wanted to let you know. Looking forward to seeing how this story develops, thank you!
Thanks! We’ll pretend it’s a thumbnail and the vidder reversed it. 😉
That totally happens 😄 If you ever feel like mildly cringing, Google “bad stock photos musicians” and be baffled at how positions some people seem to think musicians play in.
It is ABSOLUTELY working on me.
