Chapter:

Hello again! Happy Wednesday! I really liked scripting this chapter, because the first few were very much setting up the characters and them being sort of new to each other, and now I can start actually weaving in their chemistry. They can start growing into the people they’re gonna be now! They can crack jokes like friends! It’s exciting!

Those of you who read How Baby saw the announcement, but if you don’t, the big news over here is that I was laid off from my studio job last week. Bummer! So, while I am looking for a new job, I’m relying on the the support of fans on Patreon.

I don’t like to bang on about this, but if you’ve been thinking about pledging – even a dollar a month! – now would be a seriously good time to start. In return, you get little benefits like both comics emailed to you and the occasional freebie. Your support gives me the safety net that allows me to release two comics (two! comics!) for free (for free!), and will help bridge the gap between here and whatever comes next.

TRANSCRIPT

Panel 1 (Alex smirking and raising an eyebrow at Imogen while driving, while Imogen backpedals)
Imogen: Oh my gosh, I’m sorry, of course it matters. But not for me, you know?
Alex: Dig deeper, please.

Panel 2 (Imogen pointing at Alex, smiling)
Imogen: No! You can’t keep trapping me like this! I’m sure women are great…
Alex, off-panel: Yep.
Imogen: …but it’s not like I’m gonna be dating again, so even if I’ve considered it, which I have, because I’m not blind, it’s a pointless exercise. I’m married to a man! End of story for me!

Panel 3 (Alex, deadpan)
Alex: A terrible fate.

Panel 4 (Imogen laughing in the foreground as Alex looks on, disbelieving)
Imogen: The man part’s not the bad part!
Alex: I strenuously disagree.
