Lissa: Hey, Alex... you, uh, look kinda down.
Alex [whose new design features an orange t-shirt and periwinkle blue shorts]: Gee, what tipped you off?
The fact that I've been forcing myself not to cry 24/7 for *four fucking months*?

Alex: Sorry, that was... unnecessary.
Look, ever since I helped hitch Steve and Robyn, I've just been...
...sad.

Alex: Steve was like, the last single guy around my age that I knew.
Now that he's with Robs, I'm... the only one of us that's single, Tiny David not withstanding.
I don't like it.

Lissa: Dude, for as long as I've known you, you've been *fine* with being single.
What... what changed?

Alex: I don't... I don't know.
I just feel so lonely.
And it hurts.

Lissa: Hey, don't get yourself down, Alex.
You got us, and we'll help you find someone.
Things'll get better. I promise.
Alex: I hope to god you're right.

4/21/2022, 12:43 PM Welcome the fuck to Arc 7, which is shaping up to be one of the most dramatic and emotional arcs I've ever written. I've been sitting on these ideas for the better part of six months now, and I'm super excited to be able to finally show 'em off. Buckle in, folks, it's gonna be quite a ride.

Well I have seen your talks of this arc, and the cover, and things seem a little rough so it will be interesting to see how it goes!
