Panel 1: In
the title panel of this colour comic, Marie stands in the Davies Puffy
Couch Room, or PCR. Behind her, we can see Casey on one of the puffy
couches, writing something. The television is visible, as is a piece of
Indigenous art on the wall. Marie is looking askance at Casey. On a
pillar behind her are some pieces of paper reading, "West," "of,"
"Bathurst," and "by Kari Maaren." We can also see two cardboard
placards labelled "KEEPERS OF" and "THE ELVIS."
Panel 2: Marie stands behind the couch, looking down at Casey, who is still writing, his feet up on the coffee table.
Panel 3: Marie climbs over the couch.
Panel 4: Marie kneels on the couch and ponders Casey.
Panel 5: Marie lies down on the coffee table and, still looking at Casey, inches her way across it.
Panel 6: Marie is now sitting on Casey's other side.
Marie: Are you...working?
Casey: Nah. Just proofreading for a friend.
Panel 7:
Marie: Thank goodness. I thought the apocalypse had come.
Casey [smiles brightly]: I did write a term paper yesterday before breakfast.
Alt-Text: Luckily, most of my acquaintances who work with Casey's maddening efficiency have graduated by now. I wonder why that is.
