    And this is, kids, how I met your mother 😀

    Nice work. I’m getting in another vote for the strip before I go.

    Wow. Just wow.

    I wonder if Beth is as surprised as Emrys? Somehow I doubt it from her expression, but hopefully there is a smile in the future that confirms it. I have other musings about it, but I’m trying not to stream of consciousness you to death. 😉

    You listed the song that fits with this page and I still have to listen to it, but seeing the page title immediately put Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m On Fire” into my head, followed by Icehouse’s “Touch the Fire” and Foreigner’s “Waiting for a Girl Like You”, none of which seem to compare similarly to Snow Patrol’s lyrics. I bet everyone has a different soundtrack in mind when they read certain scenes in this story, but I like that you share it with us anyway. 🙂

      “I am on fire!” reminds me of game OverWatch 🙂

        You should listen to what the characters from Team Fortress 2 sound like when a Pyro lights them up, they’re all hilarious. 😀

        The game is hilarious, which is why I love playing it even though I’m terrible at FPS games. 🙂

          Well, I played even first TF 🙂 And despite I haven’t played in ages, I still have several hundreds hours of play time in TF2.

    If you play “I’m on Fire” at 45 rpm instead of 33 1/3, Springsteen sounds exactly like Dolly Parton. It’s kind of cute!

      HA! I never would have thought that comparison was possible. 😀

    The second background looks like pink marble. 🙂
