Single panel.
A red demon-like creature with yellow eyes and fangs raises a fist triumphantly.

A woman with brown hair, seen from behind, faces him.
Woman: Moloch, what did you just splash on me?

A one-panel comic. A red, fanged demon with yellow eyes triumphantly raises his fist and declares, "I AM MOLOCH! LORD OF PESTILENCE!" A brown-haired woman seen from behind asks, "Moloch, what did you just splash on me?" He cackles, "Water I sneezed on TWO DAYS AGO! HAHAHA HAHAHA!" The woman, holding up a cup and reacting with a flat "...", abruptly pivots to ask, "Can we go out Friday?" Moloch replies, "I told you, we're broken up," and she says, "I'm sorry." The grand demonic menace turns out to be an awkward post-breakup exchange. Votey: a sad, sketchily drawn Moloch looks downcast as the woman asks off-panel, "Can we still sacrifice firstborns together?"
