View TranscriptLissa: Dude, you didn't fuck anything up because you two, uh, *fucked*, you just got physical really quickly!
That's *okay*!
Alex: You don't get it. I-I don't *work* that way.
There's a fine line between physical intimacy and emotional intimacy.
Alex: Some people can fuck anyone they what, whenever they want.
Causal sex is just a thing that happens naturally to them.
But not to me.
Alex: I need that emotional intimacy.
I need to be able to be honest ant open with someone before anything physical happens.
I wasn't there yet with Sunny.
Lissa: So what *did* happen between you and Sunny?
Alex: We talked. We got really into it.
Then we just stopped, looked into each others' eyes, and decided to do it.
Lissa: You skipped a step.
Alex: Not just any step.
The *most important* step.
Lissa: Alex, I'm so sorry.
Alex: I just...
I can't do this, Lissa.
I fucked up.

Also I dunno, I'm kinda proud of the Lissa's li'l up-against-the-table boobsquish in the last panel.

I know I actually watched you make this page and all, but I didn't look at the dialogue so I could still be a bit surprised about what was being said when it did release. As always, a really great page!
