Alex: It’s… really nice, to have some happiness in this house.
Imogen: Happy to bring it over, anytime.
Panel 2 (Nolan, sitting at the piano, surrounded by Imogen’s four youngest sons)
Alex, off-panel: Thank you. I’m not… very good at playing with Nolan. I’m too…
Panel 3 (Alex looks tiredly towards the noise; broken music notes fill the air)
Alex: …tense.
Panel 4 (Imogen looking straight out the panel, earnest)
Imogen: Thank you for trusting me with this, Alex.
Panel 5 (Alex, looking straight out, embarrassed)

Me: Honey there ain’t nothing straight about this
Yay, they are so cute <3
Oof, as a musician, I grok exactly how painful it can be to hear your prized instruments played jankily and probably-far-too-hard like that xD – on the other hand though, encouraging kids to learn is awesome. Not sure if my ears could take teaching mind!
Imogen’s use of “Thank you for trusting me with this” is just… so specific and kind and healthy that I can’t help but wonder if her “failed” Psychology Degree is the source of her words.
