#551: Etch-a-Sketch
[[A male xkcd figure is playing with an etch-a-sketch]]
Male: Hey. If draw enough lines, I can see what’s behind the screen.
Male: Oh man, almost…
Etch-a-Sketch: Hi!
[[Head of a female xkcd figure appears behind etch-a-sketch]]
Female: You’re cute!
Male: Wha-
Female: I’m the one who draws when you turn the knobs.
Female: It’s lonely in here.
Male: It’s lonely out here too.
Female: I’m glad you found me, then!
Female: Let’s be friends.
Female: And never be lonely again.
[[Panels break apart into thought bubbles coming from male as he sits with his etch-a-sketch]]
Male: sigh
