| "In which Nillan and Cinn sit outside the post office." | [Cinn] It's NICE sitting here under the night sky.
/ [Nillan] Oh yes. I'm grateful to have escaped that loud, noisy gathering.
/ [Cinn] Oh, likewise. / [Nillan] I don't even know why I went to Scott's party tonight. I just sort of figured that I deserved it after working so hard all summer, you know? / [Cinn]... http://lucastds.com/webcomic/index.php?strip_id=564 |
| "In which Cinn provides Nillan with some applause." | [Nillan] Whoa! We've been sitting here for almost an hour. Maybe we should get back to the party.

/ [Leyla] I wanted it to be a surprise! / [Nillan] I haven't seen you for four months and the most... http://lucastds.com/webcomic/index.php?strip_id=567 |
| "In which Nillan is both teased and terrified." | [Leyla] What's wrong?
/ [Nillan] It's just... you've never misread me quite so thoroughly before... / [Nillan] I would have come and picked you up from the airport, had I known you were back in town. Now, I don't even know where you're living. I don't know your phone number, for goodness' sake. How... http://lucastds.com/webcomic/index.php?strip_id=568 |

| "In which Cinn is compared to a 2,000 pound man." | [Cinn] So, Bruno... you think I'll be out of love forever?
/ [Bruno] No one is out-of-love forever. / [Bruno] I saw on T.V. -- this 2,000 pound Mexican guy... even HE had a girlfriend. She rubbed oil on his fat rolls and they read the Bible together.

/ [Bruno] Oh yeah.... http://lucastds.com/webcomic/index.php?strip_id=573 |
| "In which Nillan and Leyla are reaquainted." | [Leyla] Oh, come on... this is ridiculous, Nillan.

| "In which thermometers are in cahoots with others." | [Leyla] You know, my parents tell me that it's still sunny in Montréal.

| "In which Leyla finds that her personal belongings have gone astray." | [Leyla] Ever since you started talking about ebing cold, I started to get cold as well.
/ [Nillan] You're sure the rain that's started to trickle down has nothing to do with the coldness?
/ [Leyla] Really, you should put your arm around me like a gentleman.

/ [Leyla]... http://lucastds.com/webcomic/index.php?strip_id=584 |

/ [Leyla] Yeah. Do I look okay? / [Nillan] Of course you do. You look beautiful.
