CHAPTER 5, PAGE 17
(Transcript and visual captions below}

      That night before bed, Jack called Helen to ask if Darren could come to the concert. Not like I really wanna hang out with that guy, but he'd be a good buffer for any weirdness with Demetri...
     "So wait a minute," Helen said after he'd explained the offer, "Demetri wants to hang out with Darren and you? That seems... unlikely. Well, like he's going to get you two involved in some mean trick."
     "Why?"
     "Because Darren is... Nobody would want to-- He's kind of hard to deal with and he's always making these sour faces and interrupting my TV shows by sighing and whining and-- Wait, would you be out all night?"
     "Well at least for a few hours."
     "Ooh. It's Miss Or Die Friday... OK, he can go, but be sure to keep him out until after 10, OK?"

In which the shipping fee has to be outrageous.

Darren felt a little guilty for letting Jack go off alone with that fruity Demetri guy.
Poor guy, he's probably gonna get molestered or somethin'... Damn.
What could he do about it though? He'd put his murdering the Circle plans on hold since he figured out they totally had the advantage. Bunch of jocks and freaky psychics. He spaced out and stared into the crowd, letting the rhythm of their heartbeats lull him into a fugue. That's kind of an interesting beat... Shit, I wonder if Heroin Harry's still playing the bass. No no no, I'm not getting suckered into that again, next thing you know I'll be wearing fake glasses and a sweater on Guitar TV and I might as well be dead. ...Wait. I am dead. Whatever, just... whatever.

AUGHHH this comic would have been up two hours earlier but my computer decided to terrify me in ways it has no rights to. It froze up when I was mostly done with the comic, and I hadn't saved in a million years. Sometimes it came back for a few minutes and I'd hear a few seconds of the same Bauhaus song for over an hour. SCARY. I paced around my house wringing my hands and sweating, and eventually it came back. Lesson - save early, save often. I'm going to go pack myself in ice now. Ugh.

By the way... it may be helpful for readers to re-read chapter one in particular for the next page or so. There are going to be some characters from earlier in the comic returning. Uh ohhh.

TRANSCRIPT: This is the text of the comic, for purposes such as translation and internet searches.

BLOCKHEAD: Your package is here, freak.

THEODORE: OH GOODY! AT LAST!

THEODORE: DELIGHTFUL!

THEODORE: Blockhead, tonight is the night my dreams come to fruition!

BLOCKHEAD: 'K.

VITUS: Out again? Your life is so busy.

JACK: Yeah, Demy wants me to go to something.

VITUS: ‘Demy.’..? I thought you hated him.

JACK: Yeah yeah see ya.

VITUS: Be careful!

JACK: Whatever ‘Dad!’

JACK: ...

DARREN: They’re juiceboxes to these guys.

JACK: Gross. ...but true.

DARREN: Man I’m tired of all this fancy shit. Being a vampire is wearying as fuck.

JACK: Tell me about it.

JACK: I haven’t watched TV in like... two weeks.

DARREN: That’s just sick.

DEMETRI: Hello Jack... stylish as always, I’m so glad to see you.

JACK: Hi. Is Tristan--

DARREN: Whoa.

DEMETRI: Come this way.

DARREN: Continentals, man. Glad he didn’t do that to me.

JACK: Uh, yeah.

JACK: I‘ll be back, can you keep yourself entertained?

DARREN: Yeah, I’ll just stand around and pick my nose.

MYSTERY WOMAN : Oh my god...
