Elmwych Comic P.42
Panel 1: Long shot of David and Lydia, who are deep in conversation on a road bridge at night.
David: Police didn't find anything, so now she's just another missing person. I couldn't give up, so I started looking into the supernatural stuff she would talk about, to see where that could lead me.
David: Clutching at straws maybe, but then I found Amy, who was searching for a missing person of her own.
Panel 2: Close up on David and Lydia.
David: We teamed up and that was the real beginning of the Elmwych Paranormal Investigation Club.
Lydia: You started the club to stalk your long lost girlfriend?!
Panel 3: David and Lydia seen from high above. As the discussion becomes heated they are no longer aware of their surroundings.
David: What?! Emily wasn't my girlfriend!
Lydia: But you wanted her to be!
David: Honestly Lydia, this is ancient history now! She probably left her old life behind to start a new one.
Panel 4: Another close up, in which Lydia is looking increasingly frustrated.
David: I came to terms with that and the club became a thing in its own right. Then Griff and Dylan joined us and...
Lydia: You still want her!
Panel 5: David points a finger at Lydia in annoyance.
David: Well - what abou Kurt?!
Lydia: Oh! Amy told you about that?
Panel 6: A sad looking Lydia strides toward us, eyes downturned. In the background David is looking contrite.
David: Sorry, I shouldn't have...
Lydia: Let's not argue. Come on, I need a drink.
