Homeboy fucked me up so bad, man. Depression fucking sucks. I see my mates going around, happy and all. I get so damn jealous, shit. Don't ever love someone who don't reciprocate, right? That's the advice? But shit, it was reciprocated, man. It was.
[Panel 1: Hare, looking angry and desperate, says to Dee (off screen), "I don't know what you're supposed to do, but I can't stay here! Everything went sideways so damn fast--"]
[Panel 2: Hare looks away, the angry expression starting to flake away to hurt. He continues speaking, "The guys are all out for my blood, after what I did, and no matter what I do it keeps getting worse-- Leaving's the only thing left for me to do."]
[Panel 3: Hare looks back to Dee, expression sad and apologetic, breaking down. He says, "So I can't take care of you no more. I was never cut out for helping anybody. Especially not-- (his text gets choppy here) 'Specially not J-Ja…"]
[Panel 4: Hare lifts his chin and looks down, defeated. He says miserably, "Oh, Dee. Dee, I screwed up. I screwed up /so bad./"]
[Panel 5: Shot over Hare's shoulder at Dee, who frowns slightly watching Hare cry (SFX) sniffle and hic]
[Panel 6: Dee moves closer to Hare and says, "Take off that hat." Hare takes the brim of his cabby in his left hand, looking up in confusion, and says, "Huh? OK …?"]
[Panel 7: Dee HUGs Hare, who is shocked.]
[Panel 8: Hare looks down at Dee, uncomfortable and confused, saying, "D-Dee, what-- y-you don't gotta--" Dee shushes him, saying "Shhh."]
[Panel 9: Same shot Hare looks into the distance, flabbergasted and coming to a realization as Dee pats his head and says, "Stupid boy."]
[Panel 10: Hare's eyelid droops as he leans his head against Dee's, as she continues to stroke his head comfortingly and say, "Stupid, stupid boy."]
[Panel 11: An exterior shot of one of the round attic windows. From inside, Hare asks, "… Can I stay up here a while?" Dee responds, "… Alright." End ID]
