Coo. According to this here Statcounter, we're still gaining readers - August had about a thousand more pageviews than July, this despite a spike of around that size in July (following the link AndrewK posted with his fanart over on DeviantArt).

So, welcome to all you new readers, I love you all! Also, apologies for the slight lack of funny in this strip and the next, it's not a conversation that lends itself well to levity.

I repeat to myself, over and over: This is not a drama. Somehow it never works out that way...
