Transcripts 2003-04

Transcripts from April 2003 strips.
==April 4==
Panel 1Close up of Red glaring at Richard (off-panel), as she stands in the doorway of her bedroom.Red: Your clothes are in the dryer! I *could* have left them on you, but considering you had been sick all over them, I'd thought I'd better take them off! I could have left them on *and* left you in the damn gutter where I found you! Call me silly but I thought taking you home and cleaning you up would be the right thing to do!Panel 2Close-up of Richard looking away in anger.Red (off-panel): And before you say anything, I've seen you naked loads of times, and as you stank of 2nd hand bitter, I wasn't in the mood to take advantage of you!
==April 7==
Panel 1Richard sneers in disgust.Richard: Well golly, that was nice of you! Thank you!Richard: Gee, I can't remember you doing ANYTHING for someone else that didn't befit yourself, so I'm truly honoured!Richard: What do you want Red?Panel 2Red stands in the doorway, leaning against the frame. A basket of laundry is in the hallway.Panel 3Close-up of Red, closing her eyes with an apologetic look.Red: I... I want to say sorry!
==April 11==
Panel 1Richard raises a hand in delight, smiling and gesturing to show his "pleasure."Richard: You're sorry? Well that makes everything okay, doesn't it? Even if you're saying it six years late and saying it to the wrong person!Panel 2Camera view from behind Richard, showing Red still standing in the doorway. Both are angry at the other. There is also a waste bin by the door, a dresser on the far wall (partly blocked by Richard's head), a nightstand with a lamp on it next to the bed, and a blue light hanging from the ceiling.Red: Don't mock me Richard! Can't you see I'm trying to make up?Richard: Well that's what you wanted me to say isn't it? You can say sorry all you like Red, because I know you don't mean it!
==April 14==
Panel 1Close-up of Red, eyes closed but a look of anger still on her face.Red: Look, I know it'll be hard to convince you, but I AM sorry for what happened! I got burnt myself in the exact same way! Someone I was besotted with dumped me at the drop of a hat with a "sorry, but I think I'm straight after all! Bye!" I still remember how that felt, so now I know what I did to you and Crystal was wrong!Panel 2Close-up of Richard with a more serious angry glare.Richard: No, it's Crystal you have to apologise to, not me! I was just a guy too young and stupid to keep his dick in his pants! I was there to keep you interested in her! I didn't realise until afterwards that she would rather me have sex with you with her consent, then you jump me behind her back!
==April 18==
Flash AnimationAl is sitting on a bench in a grassy area by the water. He makes faces and nods as he thinks to himself. His "thoughts" have an echo effect.Al: God, it's nice out here! Too bad I've got to go home and do that bloody comic strip, as it's really nice, and it's not meant to last.What's also a kicker, is that nobody'd be there to read it tomorrow, as it's Good Friday.Hmm.I guess I could do a crappy filler strip, stay out in this glorious sunshine.That looks really unprofessional.And it makes it look like I don't care about my readers.Ooh, I know, I'd do a crappy little flash animation.Take a bit longer than a filler, but half the time of a normal strip...Yeah! YEAH! I really like the idea of that!The readers think they're getting something special, while in reality I'm skiving off!Brilliant!Right.Now I just gotta think of something to do. Something that's not too difficult.Like... uh... me sitting on a bench thinking about stuff.Yeah, definitely thinking about stuff.That way I don't have to do any lip sync.
==April 21==
Panel 1Red leans against the doorway with her hands at her side, looking sideways at Richard.Red: So...Red: You're saying this is all about me and Crystal? Not you?Red: You didn't have ANY feelings for me?Panel 2Close-up of Richard, who looks away with a glower.Panel 3Richard turns the other way, scowling.Richard: Are my clothes dry yet? If they are I would like to leave, as I've got nothing more I want to say to you!
==April 25==
Panel 1Red glares at Richard in anger, pointing to a basket in the hallway.Red: Okay, fine! Be like that! Your clothes are clean and are on the basket out here!Panel 2Red leaves the room, turning down the hallway.Red: You can find the door yourself!Panel 3Close-up of Richard, who has a sad/regretful look on his face.Red (off-panel): Arrogant prick! What the hell did I ever see in you?Red (off-panel): To think I was going to leave Crystal for YOU! I must have been insane!Red (off-panel): God, way must I be attracted to all the arse-holes and leave the good ones?
==April 28==
Panel 1Close-up of Richard, his face full of concern.Richard: Red!Richard: Wait!Panel 2Red is standing in the hallway, her eyes closed and arms crossed. Richard peeks out from the doorway, holding the frame.Red: What is it?Richard: What did you just say?Richard: You DID love me?Panel 3Red drops her arms by her side, her eyes still closed as she lowers her head.Richard (off-panel): YOU said I was just a bit of fun!Red: *sigh*Red: I said a lot of things I didn't mean!
