p1: Autumn and Summer are walking away from Jeanie’s desk, smiling and exchanging goodbyes. Autumn: …Cool, so we’ll be at your place around noon and we can head to the theater from there. See you tomorrow! Jeanie: Yeah, sounds great! Have a good night! p2: Jeanie beams quietly at her desk. From off-panel, someone starts screaming. p3: Jeanie looks to her side, where the screaming skull floats in its tube, screaming. p4: Jeanie rolls her chair over to the screaming skull, hugging the tube tightly with a gentle smile. J: Don’t worry… you’re still my favorite

p1: Jeanie, Autumn and Summer are now outside, the former two sitting on the sidewalk while Summer stands and looks off into the distance. Jeanie: Sorry I made such a mess of things… I was just so worried you might think I wasn’t worth hanging out with. It’s been a while since I’ve spent much time with other people… p2: Jeanie begins to spiral, looking panicked and pushing her ears against her head.J: It’s just, tough, when you have so many responsibilities, and you work separately from everyone else, and you sit next to a psychic skull that’s always screaming and you don’t know if it’s alive or dead but you do know that you share a bond nobody could ever understand, p3: Autumn, smiling, places a sympathetic hand on teary-eyed Jeanie’s back. Autumn:Gosh, Jeanie, I had no idea you felt that way… to tell you the truth, I was just as worried that’s what you’d think about me! J: Snff… R-Really? p4: Autumn begins rattling off the moral of the day as Summer, suddenly panicked, interrupts them and starts lifting them up from the ground. A: Y’know, it’s funny… we were each so wrapped up in… that we never…. Both be nervous… selves our…. goes to show…. feelings… Summer: Ok yep we’ve all learned a lesson about making asses of you and me or whatever now how about we discuss it further away from those cops that just pulled up

p1: A person in a domino costume is holding a beer and talking to somebody off-panel. Jeanie is walking up behind them, distracted by the ridiculous assortment of drinks she is carrying. Domino Alpha: …and then he’s all, you really sleep in that, and I’m like excuse me for taking my work seriously p2: Jeanie bumps into the domino person. As Jeanie drops her drinks and steps back, the first domino begins to topple towards their similarly-dressed companion. DA: And so-- whoa! Jeanie: Gah! p3: The dominos fall backwards, knocking down the rest of the crowd that was standing in front of the band. Jeanie falls back as well, having dropped her drinks all over the floor. As the band steps back, the guy closest to the stage looses hold of his beer which flies towards the leftmost amp. p4: The beer splashes on the amp, which begins sparking. p5: Smoke begins pouring out of the amp as it starts to sizzle. p6: As the smoke alarm goes off, Jeanie lays on the ground with the rest of the shocked crowd. The snake from the band sprays the amp with a fire extinguisher while the rest of the band looks on. Other onlookers, including Summer and Autumn, stare at the mess. p7: Summer and Autumn, stunned, look at the fallen crowd. Autumn: Maybe we should go. Summer: Good idea

p1: Summer watches as Jeanie, looking startled but purposeful, marches away from their booth. Autumn, barely visible from behind the booth, bemoans the scenario. Autumn: Well, there goes Jeanie. I’m asked to talk about myself for two seconds and I can’t help but scare her off. p2: Autumn, head in their hands, leans down towards the table as Summer pats their back. Summer: Come on, it wasn’t that bad. At least you were smiling! Or, well, you were for sure showing your teeth. A: Ugh I knew I couldn’t do this… she must think I’m such a freak p3: Jeanie walks towards the bar, rubbing her hands together nervously. Jeanie, thinking: I can’t believe it… zines! Only the most interesting and sexually dynamic people make those! And they know themself so well -- I feel like I don’t know anything! They both must think I’m so boring… I gotta show them I’m cool… exciting! p4: Jeanie, looking scared, slams her hands down on the bar, startling the raccoon bartender who is popping the bottlecap off a beer. J: GIVE ME AS MANY DRINKS AS IT TAKES TO MAKE ME EXCITING, please

p1: Summer, Autumn and Jeanie are sitting in their booth, now with a glass of wine, a beer, and a seltzer respectively. Summer and Jeanie are smiling while Autumn blankly looks downward. Summer: …so they wrote the articles, I did the layout, and we’d tape ‘em up in the bathroom stalls every week. The perfect captive audience for a dorm newsletter. Jeanie: Haha, that’s so funny! Gosh, it must have been great to get to work on that together. p2: Summer and Jeanie look to Autumn, who surprisedly looks up. S: We’ve actually worked on a few projects together since then! For a while Autumn had me doing the covers for their zine. J: Oh whoa, you make zines? That’s so cool! Autumn: Oh! Uh, yeah, I mean, I did for a bit p3: Autumn, awkwardly smiling, peels the label off their beer. A: It wasn’t a huge thing really, just a little creative exercise… basically I was going out for breakfast at different diners and writing reviews and stuff. It was fun, but, y’know, one day it started feeling pointless… that’s, kind of a trend with me these days aheheh p4: Summer and Jeanie stare at Autumn as they start to blush. p5: Autumn cringes as Jeanie, looking uncomfortable, smiles and stands up. S: They also had riddles in the back J: HEY who wants another drink!

p1: Summer and Autumn are walking into a crowded bar, with a band setting up on stage consisting of five trumpet players with an amp on either side of the stage. A bunch of people are clustered into little groups throughout the room. Jeanie is waiting at a booth in the back and stands up as she sees the two of them. Summer: Jeanie, hey! Jeanie: Hi Summer, hi Autumn! I’ve been here a regular amount of time! p2: Autumn scoots into the booth as Summer continues talking to the now-seated Jeanie. S: Haha yeah, sorry we were a little late. Hope you weren’t too bored waiting. J: That’s ok! I’ve been having fun watching the band get set up. I didn’t know you two liked ska! p3: Autumn, now settled, looks a bit skeptical as Summer smiles and joins them in the booth. A: Honestly it… doesn’t do much for me. But I think if I listen to enough maybe I’ll get inoculated. S: I just close my eyes and think about skateboards

p1: Jeanie, reflected in her bathroom mirror, is giving herself a pep talk. Jeanie: Calm down… you got this! Summer and Autumn are nice! They’re gonna love you! p2: She begins brushing her poof of hair. J: You’ll have fun! You’ll bond! Maybe they’ll even give you a nickname! Like… “Jolly J” or “Jee Wiz” p3: Jeanie stops brushing and looks down hesitantly. J: …gosh those are terrible. Can you… can you say no to a nickname? Is that allowed? p4: She stands with her hands on her hips and a strained smile on her face. J: Well, guess I… just gotta get used to it. Hi, I’m Jolly J. Jolly J, that’s my name. All my friends call me Jolly J

p1: Autumn is looking in their bathroom mirror, leaning over the counter. They are wearing a white t-shirt with red ringed sleeves and red pants. Autumn: Hey, what was Jeanie like in high school anyways? Summer, off-panel: Uh… short? And chipper p2: Autumn comes out of the hallway to greet Summer, who is leaning on the back of the couch. She is wearing a grey jean jacket over a green shirt and black skirt. A: She’s short and chipper now. Anything more informative? S:Look, I just didn’t know her very well back then…her sister and I were friends so I saw her a lot, but we barely hung out one-on-one p3: Autumn looks stressed while Summer pats their back. A: Mm… are you sure you don’t remember a cheat code to convince her I’m not a sadsack freak? S: Autumn c’mon, you talk to Jeanie almost every day! None of us need to worry about impressing each other p4: Jeanie, wearing a blue jumpsuit, is staring at herself intensely in her own bathroom mirror. Jeanie: You need to worry about impressing summer and Autumn. You need to be fun. You need to be cool. You need to be the exact right amounts of both fun and cool

p1: Autumn and Summer are walking towards Jeanie’s desk, which has a computer monitor and a nameplate that reads “RECEPTION” above a taped-up sheet of paper that reads “ETC.” Autumn looks nervous while Summer has a friendly smile; Jeanie is cheerfully sorting mail. Summer: Hey Jeanie, Autumn and I are looking at going downtown tonight. What do you think? Jeanie: I think that sounds nice! And I hope you have a good time. S: I will rephrase that—do you wanna join us? p2: Jeanie looks up, startled. Autumn is making a nervous bug face; Summer continues to smile assuredly. J: Join you… like, go with you? Me plus you two? The three of us? That’s what you mean? By joining you? Like we all go together? The two of you and also me? As a group? A trio? The three of us? As in all three of— S: Yeah, we wanted to see this band that’s playing and thought it’d be fun if you came along p3: Jeanie clasps her hands together, crumpling up the letters. Her eyes grow wide. J, thinking: Oh my god it’s happening. Ok Jeanie, breathe. Be cool. Be natural. p4: Jeanie lunges forward and slams her hands on the desk, looking extremely wild-eyed and serious. Summer looks slightly less assured as Autumn nervously glances at her. J: Summer. Autumn. I won’t let you down. S: That’s… not really the stakes of hanging out, but thanks!

p1: Autumn and Summer are sitting in their living room, Autumn in a chair while Summer looks frustrated on the couch. A: So… Jeanie kindly helped you get a job interview, and in return you snubbed her heartfelt call for friendship and pushed her down in the mud. Summer: The mud-pushing was strictly on emotional grounds, but yeah that’s about right. I thought she was just doing me a good turn… I should have realized she was trying to connect p2: Autumn looks assured while Summer becomes thoughtful. A: Well, given your earnest self-flagellation I’m gonna say - not a jerk. But! You gotta take her to lunch or something. S: Actually, this did get me thinking… maybe the three of us could try going out some time. Get some drinks, see a show p3: Autumn reacts with surprise; Summer rolls slightly on the couch to face them. A: Wait, like, us as in we? But… I still need to cure all my personality flaws. What if I say something bleak and off-putting? S: Autumn, you’re not gonna get *more* sane by making yourself stay in all the time. Besides, I’m pretty sure Jeanie’s used to you saying bleak stuff by now. p4: Autumn leans forward contemplatively while Summer smiles. A: That’s true… and I have had some nice conversations with them, it’s just… a friend… from work? Is that even possible? S: A philosophical debate that has lasted through the ages, but I think you’ll be able to figure it out

p1: Summer and Jeanie, wearing Past Outfits (for Summer, shorter hair with a gray blazer + black pants + green top and shoes, for Jeanie her usual look but with a short-sleeve sweatshirt) are walking down the hall. Summer is holding a portfolio under her arm. Summer: Gotta say, I feel pretty good about that interview. Thanks again for telling me about this job, Jeanie. Jeanie: Of course! I was so excited when I heard you had moved back to town, it’ll be great to have someone I really know here p2: Summer looks at her phone and turns away from Jeanie, who is looking off with a smile. J: I can’t wait to catch up… maybe when I leave work we can-- S: Oop, my roommate’s calling. She wants me to scope out that software company down the hall, see if she should apply p3: Summer, now, absent her usual jacket, is resting in her bedroom with a thoughtful expression. S, in memory: We’ll talk soon, yeah? See you around! J, in memory: Oh, ok! Bye Summer! p4: Summer peeks into the living room where Autumn is reading a comic. S: Autumn, do you think I’m a jerk? A: Mm… depends on who has been wronged. If it was me? Yes and in fact you owe me five bucks about it. Someone else? I bet they had it coming

p1: Jeanie, still in a hole, has her feet up on the wall and is grasping and being grasped by Summer, who is leaning over to pull her out. Summer: Ok… on three. One… Two… p2: Summer leans back, pulling Jeanie up. S: Three!. p3: Jeanie lands on her chest while Summer falls on her back. Jeanie: Guh! Thanks Summer. S: What are friends for. p4: Jeanie perks up with shock as Summer sits up. J: Friends?! We’re friends? S: …Yeah? Jeanie I’ve known you since high school p5: They both look away from each other, Jeanie blushing with a small smile and Summer gritting her teeth. J: No I know it’s just, y’know, we never really talk unless Autumn is having a crisis… S: Well, you gotta admit that’s pretty frequent

p1: Summer is walking on the sidewalk, a glimpse of the city skyline behind her. She looks thoughtful and is carrying a grocery bag. Summer, thinking: This self-isolation thing can’t be good for Autumn… is there any way I can help them out of it…? Unknown, off-panel: Hellooo? Is anybody there? p2: Summer arrives at the office, where a hole has appeared on the lawn. S, thinking: …there’s a hole in the lawn. Unknown, from the hole: Helloooo. S, thinking: The hole is shouting. p3: Summer peers into the hole and sees Jeanie, tiredly smiling up at her next to a shovel. She looks chipper per usual but in a slightly strained way. S: And in the hole is Jeanie. How’s it going Jeanie. Jeanie: Hi Summer! Sorry to be a bother, but do you think you could help me out of here? p4: From the hole point of view, Jeanie looks up at Summer, who looks concerned. Jeanie’s smile falters. S: Sure, but… what are you even doing down there? Why did you dig this? J: I’m gonna be honest Summer. I don’t think my boss knows what a receptionist does.

p1: Summer and Autumn are walking. Summer looks concerned, while Autumn lightly grimaces and looks at the ceiling. Summer: Seriously, are you feeling ok? Outside of work you haven’t left the house in forever. Autumn: Look, don’t worry about me. I’m just a little… at odds with society these days. p2: They emerge from the hallway that leads from Autumn’s room to their living room. Summer frowns in the doorway as Autumn begins to clamber over the couch. S: I’d worry less if you hadn’t phrased that like you’re gonna end up on the news. A: No no I just mean like, I’m kind of a mess right now, y’know? Stuck in my little mental circles all the time. p3: Autumn flops onto the couch stomach-down, arms hanging limply over the cushion. A: I just keep fixating on all the ways I’m failing at being a complete person… and since that’s all I’m thinking about, it’s all I can talk about too. I’m getting sick of subjecting the people around me to the most neurotic version of myself. p4: Autumn rolls onto their back from one side of the couch to the other, while Summer leans on the back of the couch and smirks. A: So for now I figure my best course of action is to stay home and practice not thinking about things until I become normal. S: That might take a while.

p1: Summer, in a green sweater and jeans, is leaving the apartment while Autumn, on the couch, stares at an off-panel TV. Summer: Sure you don’t want to come to trivia night? There might be a question about cartoons for sad teens. Autumn: Not tonight, there’s a video essay I’ve been meaning to get pissed off at. p2: Summer, with her hair down and now wearing a cardigan + long skirt, is leaving her room and passing by Autumn, who is playing gameboy SP at their round table. S: Jazz in the park. It’s like regular jazz, but with one twist. You coming? A: Nah, my virtual snail is getting its braces off. p3: Summer, now in her regular outfit, is marching into Autumn’s room where the latter is staring at her laptop. S: Autumn you gotta get the hell out of this apartment for at least an hour. A: Can’t, sorry. I’m learning about stocks and bonds. p4: Summer places her hands on her hips and looks down at Autumn leaning back in her chair. S: Tell me one thing you have learned about stocks and bonds. A: Well first off they involve a lot less sex than you might think

p1: Autumn, eyes closed, waves tiredly at Jeanie (carrying a jug labeled O+) as they pass in the hall. Jeanie: Have a good night, Autumn! Autumn: G’night Jeanie p2: Autumn exits the building and encounters Summer, who has been waiting outside. Summer: Oh wow, you made it! And here I was about to start weeping and smashing stuff in honor of your memory. A: Well hey don’t let me stop you p3: As Autumn passes her, Summer gestures in the direction of a place they might visit. Autumn recoils and sticks their tongue out in response. S: By the way, I hear it’s Pagliacci night at the bar down the road. Wanna make a clown cry before we head home? A: Going out on a weeknight? Summer that’s profane p4: Now standing next to each other, the two continue walking. S: Y’know, that line might work better if you ever went out on weekends. A: Please, I go out all the time! How else would I check the mail?

p1: Jeanie stands in a darkened office, holding a tome over a pentagram surrounded by lit candles. p2: Jeanie reads from the tome, raising a hand ceremonially. When she speaks, it is in emojis. Jeanie: [printer emoji chart-going-up emoji floppy disk emoji money emoji fire emoji money flying away emoji devil emoji devil emoji devil emoji] p3: Lightning strikes with a big KRAKOW. p4: in the middle of the pentagram, a desk with an orchid on it has appeared and the flames of the candles have gone out. Jeanie, book now closed, looks at it blankly. p5: Jeanie leans against the wall, with the darkened desk visible through a doorway next to her. She has headphones in and is speaking on the phone. J: No, the finish looks right, but the tome said it would be a standing desk. Mmhm. Five gallons? I could’ve sworn it said four… I see. Well, thank you for your help. Oh, and just to clarify. Does the blood type matter?

p1: Summer is reading a prompt on her desktop tablet, smiling as she holds her stylus up to the screen. The prompt reads: “Design Request - Anime Inspired Shirt (Badass). Requestor - Smuck Buckles <sbvapez@email.nice> Description: ya so there’s this tv show heavenly witch cyberblade about a cool lady with a sword, i need 50 shirts with her looking cool, pose doesn’t matter as long as its cool and the back says Buck’s Vape Shop & Pizzeria.” Summer: Oh hey, I know that sword lady! p2: Summer cheerily starts a texting conversation with Autumn. S, via text: i just got a request for a shirt with your dorky anime crush on it. got a good reference image i could use? the guy just wants her to “look cool.” Reply text box: Autumn is typing… p3: Summer blushes and recoils from the phone as she is flooded with notifications that read “Autumn sent an image,” with the images themselves remaining unseen. p4: Summer hunches down, still blushing and looking around embarrassedly, and types her response. S: ok so i’ll admit that is an impressive collection but keeping in mind that i need this FOR WORK -- do you have any that are slightly less pornographic

p1: Autumn walks into the break room with a bag of popcorn; Harvey is making a cup of coffee. A: Hey Harvey, do you know what’s up with this bag of popcorn that was sitting in the middle of the hallway? H: Ah, you mean the prize for the new incentive program! p2: Autumn lifts and side-eyes the popcorn. A: No I don’t think that’s what I mean. H, off-panel: I’d been thinking -- how can I keep things fresh around here? So I wanted to try introducing a bit of competition! p3: Autumn flatly stares at Harvey, who looks bemused by their dissatisfaction. A: Uh huh. So we’re competing for some old movie theater popcorn you got from a dumpster. H: Oh come on, of course not. The dumpster was full so they had sat it to the side p4: The King of Sales enters from the hall behind Autumn, who swoops up the bag in their arms and gives him an enraged glare. KoS: Do I smell dump popcorn? Winters let me see that. A: You will not lay a finger on this trash unless you earn it King of Sales!!

p1: Autumn and Summer are leaning over the top of a brick wall. Autumn: Well Summer, it’s the start of another work week and I’m feeling just as adrift as ever. Summer: Tell me about it, Autumn p2: Autumn counts her gripes on her fingers. A: It’s just the same old problems, y’know? I’ve got no direction, no special skills, nothing but rocks on tricks-or-treats-- S, off-panel: Mm? p3: Autumn wails to the sky while Summer amusedly turns away. A: My dog doesn’t respect me, and a tree ate my kite, and I’ve NEVER gotten to kick the football-- S: Ok, we’re gonna call it there p4: It is revealed that they are standing on a platform behind a very small segment of wall. Jeanie is there as well, smiling at a clipboard. S: Sorry Jeanie, but I don’t think the conversation wall is gonna “disrupt mental healthcare” the way your boss imagines. A, quietly: Sometimes the dog wears sunglasses, and that’s cool. I can admit that the dog is cool. J: Well, that’s okay. The backup plan is to market it as a playset for melancholy kids

It’s actually nice, sorta. Peaceful. Meditative. Vee: Mm. p2: Harvey walks by, holding a stack of Missing flyers for his beloved Mister Cool mug. Harvey: Alright team, I’m off on another flyer run. Oh right, Autumn, our latest patch is making computers send out user credit card numbers on social media so I need a write-up about how that can streamline payment processing p3: Autumn, smiling, starts to stand up. A: …Welp! I’m gonna go see what Jeanie’s up to. V: Really? All that fuss about having nothing to do and now that you have something you’re putting it off? p4: Autumn stands triumphantly as Vee goes back to their work.

Aren’t you always saying “my job is pointless” and “nobody should have to do this garbage,” etcetera? Autumn: Yes and I’m right to say so every time - that’s how you know I’m losing it. p2: Autumn clenches her hands angrily. A: What’s the point of spending my whole day at the office if I’m just sitting around? I swear they just want me to feel every second that’s getting wasted. p3: Summer looks at a menu while Autumn reaches for her coffee. S: Well, if you have to be there anyways you should try to take advantage of it. Maybe you could work on a hobby or something. A: Hm… I guess I could… uh… p4: Autumn panics, Summer facepalms. A: Oh god do I not have any hobbies? Am I that boring?? Is this all my life is?! Am I - S: Gaaah you’d think I’d know by now how to avoid setting off your secondary crises

Harvey: Oh, Autumn. You don’t need me to tell you what to do. p2: Harvey looks enthusiastic while Autumn looks confused. H: This is a perfect opportunity for you to expand your horizons. A: Like, through a project or-- H: Through the power of self-direction! p3: Harvey turns away as Autumn starts to leave. H: You should take this time to look around you, see what needs doing, and do it! Take charge of your role. Take charge of yourself! A: …Right. Thanks, Harvey. p4: Vee and Autumn are sitting at their desks. Autumn has a blank expression on their face. Vee: So how’d it go? A: Well, either I got promoted or fired
