Panel 1:
A woman with long red hair, wearing a pink shirt and holding up a black glove, sits across a dinner table from a man with brown hair seen from behind in a blue shirt.
Woman: "Whoops! I just dropped a man's carotid artery. Ooh, and it looks like it was severed using the back of a rusty hammer. Whoops! I accidentally dropped a rusty hammer! Weird..."
Caption below panel:
"Anyway, I'm sorry... you were saying something about not being in love with me anymore?"
Votey:
The man and woman lean toward each other across the table.
Man: "I don't love you anymore."

A two-part comic. Main panel: at a dinner table, a red-haired woman in a pink shirt holds up a black glove and cheerfully addresses a brown-haired man seen from behind. She says, "Whoops! I just dropped a man's carotid artery. Ooh, and it looks like it was severed using the back of a rusty hammer. Whoops! I accidentally dropped a rusty hammer! Weird..." A caption beneath reads, "Anyway, I'm sorry... you were saying something about not being in love with me anymore?" The joke: she's casually trying to play off incriminating evidence of a murder mid-breakup. Votey (small follow-up panel, black-and-white sketch): the couple leans toward each other; the man says, "I don't love you anymore," the woman asks, "Because I'm always bringing body parts to dinner?" and the man replies, "Mostly that, yeah" — confirming her serial-murder habit is the actual dealbreaker.
