289: Alone
Alone |
Title text: Worries assuaged, the numbers become less important than your touches. |
Explanation
Cueball is on a romance with Megan but his attention is still more to Fibonacci Sequences as he does count on her touches rather than he really does enjoy her snuggles.
But at the title text he reverts this and falling back to the well known xkcd romance, he is just falling in love.
Transcript
- [Megan crawling on bed toward Cueball.]
- Cueball: It's not something you can turn off.
- [Cueball pulling Megan, bedspread, and pillow off of bed onto floor.]
- Cueball: A part of me is always detached. Abstracting, looking at numbers and patterns.
- [Megan on top of Cueball, both under bedspread, on floor. Megan looks to be 'touching' Cueball.]
- Cueball: When we should be closest, part of me is still alone. Counting the touches of her fingertips. Touch. Touch. Touch touch. Touch touch touch. Touch touch touch touch touch.
- [Same scene as third panel.]
- Cueball: Wait. Is that... That's the Fibonacci Sequence! Whatever I did to deserve you, it couldn't have been enough.
