Exact

 

In the top two panels, Blue Guy looks from side to side in disquiet and alarm. Panel three shows a closeup of the same troubled face and the thought bubble "I have worried about this exact scenario."

Red and Blue and spooky all over

 

Blue Guy, in the form of a floating ghost, asks, "Does it feel spooky in here?" Red Guy, shaped approximately like a skull, answers, "Not nearly spooky enough."

Self-assessment

 

Red Guy, whacking self over head with a club labeled "self-congratulation" and grinning vacantly: "I am good at this." Blue Guy, limbs writhing pensively and placing one finger on the chin, also pensively: "This one may be too subtle for me."

You are doing another of your "metaphors"?

Information

 

Red Guy, whose head has sprouted an arm that holds between thumb and forefinger a piece of paper reading (in pixelated text) "Click here for more information" with an image of a mouse cursor (also pixelated). Blue Guy folds two arms and extends a squinting eye on a stalk to read Red Guy's paper. Blue Guy scowls.

No, I don't think I will.

Upon the land

 

In a tiny landscape contained in a modified square stoneware pan some 30 centimeters to a side, among real miniature cacti and a trimmed-down specimen of Utah fleabane grown from gathered seed, Red Guy and Blue Guy have changed shape to that of a barrel cactus and a branched columnar cactus respectively. They smile, amused with themselves. Red Guy says, "heh". Blue Guy says "heh heh". Red Guy says, "Cactus."

"We should say cactus things."

"Go hug yourself! Is that something?"

"The thingness is not in question. But is it a cactus something?"

(Tiny landscape cultivated and arranged by Andrew Livingston, who is also me.)

Defiantly

 

Blue Guy, who has sprouted two arms posed in an aggressively pensive configuration, asks "Do I dare defy the universe?" Red Guy, who stands on two limbs that end in something not unlike a simian hand or an avian foot, says, "Blue, I watch you do that several times a day."

Next question

 

In a closeup, Red Guy looks nervous while asking, "Is it always wrong to lie?" Zoomed out, Red Guy and Blue Guy stare uncomfortably at each other. In another closeup, Blue Guy looks nervous while saying, "I am not prepared to comment on the matter at this time."

Next question.
