Page 25 of Keeping Time


Panel 1: Denver looks across the page, to the panel next to his, concerned. He says, "Daniel."

Panel 2: Daniel looks from his panel back to the previous, equally, if not more worried than Denver. He trails off, "Denver..."

Panel 3: A large sound effect of WHUMP, in bold, bright letters.

Panel 4: Denver has slammed into Daniel with a hug, one arm over Daniel's shoulder, the other pulling Daniel in around the waist. The force of the hug has knocked one of Daniel's earbuds loose.

Panel 5: Daniel stands in shock, unmoving, even as Denver holds him. His loose earbud hangs from Denver's arm, unnoticed by either of them.

Panel 6: Now Daniel smiles slightly, and offers a single hand to Denver's back gently.

Panel 7: Off-panel, Daniel finally says, "It's good to see you, too."
