A web comic of romance,
sarcasm, math, and language.
Panel One: Three stick figures are kneeling on the ground behind a large rock. The one on the left is wearing a Revolutionary War style hat, the one in the middle has scruffy hair and beard, the one on the right has longish, blond hair and is also wearing a Revolutionary War style hat, and all three are holding muskets.
Person 1: Don’t shoot until you see the whites of their eyes.
Panel Two: Close up on Person 1.
Person 1: And smell the scent of their hair.
Panel Three: Close up on Person 2 and 3 as they look at each other in consternation.
Person 1 (off-panel): And taste the sweetness of their lips.
Panel Four: Battle sounds of “BLAM BLAM” and a bullet come from the other side of the large rock. Persons 2 and 3 have their muskets at the ready.
Person 1: And feel the heat of their skin pressed against yours, trembling as you–
Person 3: Maybe we should just start shooting.
Person 1: Right. Yes.
Hover text: Don’t fire until you see through the fragile facade to the human being within.
