2006-02-08: Escape Phrase 5
A clarification
Test audiences claim that it is weird for Jimothy to be telling Tsamantha about the dream here. He isn't telling her ALL about it, nor all the details. And he finds it easier to tell her about the dream than to tell her about his feelings for her. So, there you go.
This comic is in the storyline:
- Escape Phrase
This was intended to be a 24-hour comic but my hand hurt too much twelve pages in. And then it turned into a crazy experimental study of the interaction between form and content in the comics medium.

[[Jimothy and Tsamantha are at an open-air cafe enjoying the warm summer weather.]] Tsamantha: That's a pretty scary dream. I'm... really sorry. I don't want to be in that dream! I mean, I want to be in a HAPPY dream with you... wait, uh... jeez. <<MUTUAL BLUSHING>> Jimothy: Uh... Tsamantha: I wonder what it means, though. Jimothy: Huh? It's just a bad dumb dream. Tsamantha: No way! I KNOW it's important to you. Tsamantha: And my mom taught me ALL SORTS of AMAZING PSYCHIC DREAM ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES. Well, she said she would. Let's go see her! [[She takes his hand to lead him.]] Jimothy (thinking): OMG [[They stand in front of a storefront: PSYCHIC -- MAJIKAL ADVICE 'n' CRAP LIKE THAT]] Jimothy: How did I manage to forget your mom did this? Tsamantha: Never told you?
