Panel 1:
A man with flame-like orange hair and round glasses, shirtless, stands behind a table covered in a sheet of paper. He has a pen in hand. Beside him stands a brown-haired woman, also bare-shouldered, looking at him with concern.
Man: IT'S OKAY! I ROLLED A SIX!
Woman: SHOULDN'T WE-
On the table beside them is a stack of books. The top one is open to a page showing a figure, labeled "DUNGEON & DRAGONS." The spines of the stacked books below read: "SPELLS," "WEAPONS," "NINJA'S HANDBOOK," and others that are partly obscured.
Caption (below panel): It later became clear that we should've used a condom after all.
Votey:
A hand-drawn black-and-white panel. The orange-haired man (now shown in simple line art with his glasses) speaks to the woman, who stands with her arms crossed.
Man: REMEMBER WHEN I SAID "I LOVE YOU?" WELL, THAT WAS IN CHARACTER.

A webcomic. In the main panel, a shirtless man with spiky orange hair and round glasses stands at a paper-covered table holding a pen, next to a bare-shouldered brown-haired woman who looks worried. He says, "It's okay! I rolled a six!" She begins, "Shouldn't we-". Beside them is a stack of role-playing game books labeled Dungeons & Dragons, Spells, Weapons, and Ninja's Handbook, implying they have been treating sex as a tabletop RPG resolved by dice rolls. The caption reads: "It later became clear that we should've used a condom after all." In the votey aftercomic, drawn in rough black-and-white line art, the man tells the now arms-crossed woman, "Remember when I said 'I love you?' Well, that was in character" — revealing he was only role-playing his affection.
