Sometimes you just gotta surprise your hard working boyfriend with his favourite treat. #Swan&Ram #Queer #OCs #FrenchToastNation
A cartoon Swan cooks french toast for his Ram boyfriend. Ram, still wearing his work badge and backpack, looks surprised and happy at the sight, which makes Swan grin. On the kitchen wall behind them is a vintage Frankenstein poster.

You can either have an okay Swan and bad Ram rough pencil sketch, or a bad Swan and okay Ram rough pencil sketch. You cannot have both at the same time. #Art #Sketches #Doodles
A pencil sketch of a cartoon Swan & Ram couple. The Swan is looking decent enough, but Ram has a look of pure insanity to him.Another, fainter pencil sketch of the same couple. Ram is, simple but reasonably on model. Swan is a mess.

A cartoon Swan and Ram couple lay in a field together, the sun lowering gradually in the sky behind them, casting a hazy light over the landscape, bugs and pollen move around in the air. There's a subtle filmgrain over the image, and faint white bordering to create a photographic aesthetic.

Things are really kicking off at the ol' pub this evening. #Art #Swan&Ram #OCs #Queer #Deer #Ska'rk
A cartoon deer, named Jane Doe, dressed in goth attire and sporting purple hair and makeup, sits next to a Ska loving/dressing shark lady (Ska'rk) who is flirting with her. The shark is grinning wide and the deer is smirking. To the right of them, a cartoon Swan (Jane's best friend) leans over with a poggers face of excitement, whilst his off-screen Ram boyfriend holds him back.  The scene is set in a pub of sorts, with the shark drinking a whiskey and the deer drinking a Guinness.

A cartoon Swan and Ram couple dressed differently from their default outfits in the 'Life in Pictures' comic. The Swan is wearing a darker green shirt with the skull of a horned creature/demon splattered across it, and he has a plaster over his cheek. Despite this, he looks chipper. The Ram looks very tired and a bit put out, and is wearing a University hoodie that reads EWE Bristol (A pun on UWE Bristol that I simply could not resist) and a purple shirt underneath.

On the screen are a cartoon Swan and Ram couple, standing outside of a house with a camera in front of them. The Swan is looking forwards towards the screen, whilst the Ram is looking to the right in shock because, as the hand shifts from that picture to the next, we see the beginnings of flames and fire, and a burning hand extends out of the next picture and into theirs.

Said Ram is sat on the sofa and smiling. Around them is various things, including an issue of 'Ramgoria' with an article about a new Die Box movie, a can of 'Pringulls', several cacti and a Pride flag hung up in the background (Previously worn by Swan for the Pride Month art)

Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures. Pages 20-21 (Of 21). The Final Pages! Thank you to everyone who been following along, I would be grateful for your continued support/sharing! #Swan&Ram #OCs #Queer #Art #Comics #S&R1ALIP
Page 20 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, Swan, fixing Ram's dishevelled wool, says (Continuing on from the last page) "Ram...I don't know if I have the answers you need right now...But you DO matter. And those photos? They matter too! They keep our moments and memories alive, long after we're gone. Hell, we just saw someone cling to the very fabric of existence for one last glimpse!" to which Ram says "R...right..."
In Panel 2, Swan continues, saying "And you gave them that! I think that's a pretty damn cool legacy to have, don't you?" In Panel 3, Ram, smiling faintly says "I...yeah. I guess so".
In Panel 4, Swan continues on "And you're just getting started, babe. I don't know what the right path to take is, but I'm gonna be there beside you no matter what you do. I love you, Ram". In Panel 5, Swan's hand cupping his head, Ram replies "I love you too, Swan. So much"
In Panel 5, Swan holds Ram a little closer, grinning as the latter says "There's no one I'd of rather had beside me when...meeting a ghost!? Did that really just happen?" to which Swan replies "Fuck yeah it did! Now shall we head home? This Date Night is at risk of becoming a Date Morning!"
In Panel 6, out of focus, Ram replies "Ah, yeah. And...thanks, for listening, babe" to which Swan says "Any time, gurl" In focus, through a shattered window in the burned-down house, we see a stick-figure crayon drawing of the previously deceased cat family, happily standing in front of a sun. Presumably drawn by their young child prior to the fire.Page 21 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, we see Ram driving, Swan asleep in the seat next to him. In Panel 2 he grimaces, blinded suddenly by the emergence of the rising sun in the distance. 
In Panel 3, we see him reach up to pull down the sun visor, and in Panel 4, it pulled down, we see a Polaroid picture taped to the visor, showing Swan and Ram posing together in a festive winter scene, Snowman behind them. 
In Panel 5, Ram looks up at this picture, a melancholic look on his face. In Panel 6, that expression turns to a faint smile.

In Panel 7, we see the car driving off into the sunrise. To the bottom of the panel are the words END OF CHAPTER 1.

With the COMIC nearly over, I thought it'd be fun to share three eclectic songs that have fuelled a lot of creative juice across this process. VERY different individually, but all have notable shifts in tone and energy, and have themes of longing and/or desperation. Really created the vibes for me.

Page 18 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, both Swan and Ram, looking dishevelled and in Swan's case, bleeding after the prior pages explosive finale, stare in shock and horror towards the origin of it. In Panel 2 we see the burnt remains of the tablet and scattering particles of blue that used to be the ghost. Swan says "They're gone". In Panel 3, we see a shot of that from the perspective of the camcorder, which has been recording the whole time.
In Panel 4, we see Swan and Ram sitting on the bonnet of their car outside, both looking shocked, Ram having the exact same expression as in Panel 2.
In Panel 5, Swan turns excitedly to Ram and says "Holy shit, babe! Ghosts are real! It's all real! We met a spirit from beyond the grave and we survived! This is incredible! This changes everything! We sho-" he cuts off, meanwhile Ram's lip is quivering as if he's about to cry.
In Panel 6, Ram starts crying into his hands/hooves, saying "Oh god..." to which Swan, alarmed, exclaims "Babe?!"Page 19 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.
In Panel 1, Swan asks "What's wrong?" to Ram, who, teary-eyed, says "It's just...seeing those photos? Realiising, even cut short, that they'd accomplished so much in what little time they had here? It really brought home how little I've done with my life..." following then with "I...I'm not happy, Swan"
In Panel 2, a teary Swan says "W...what do you mean? Did I do something wrong? Please don-" to which Ram cuts him off saying "No! Not unhappy with you! You're everything to me! If I didn't have you, I don't know what I'd- " to which Swan interjects with a panicked "R-ram..." and Ram quickly corrects with "No! Not like THAT! This...this isn't going well..."
In Panel 3, a teary-eyed Swan says "Just...take a breath... Y-you can tell me anything, I promise" 
In Panel 4, Ram, still crying begins to speak "... It's stupid, really. I have a good job, and it pays well...but it's not what I expected. It's not what I wanted. I worked so hard to become someone that mattered, to do things that matter! But I ended up just another nobody in a cubicle. This can't be it, surely? My life? Was this all it was for?"
In Panel 5, Swan grabs Ram and says "You're not nobody! Not to me!" to which Ram replies "I ...I know. And I love you for that..." 
In Panel 6, he turns away, grimacing faintly, saying "But...I'm a-also jealous of you? You have a more meaningful job, and it gives you so much time to live beyond it. You have no idea how much I want that. I'm...sorry if that's an unforgivable thing to say..."
In Panel 7, Swan looks down and reflects on this "I...it's not. I get it, I think. I'm sorry, I should've known you felt that way. I'd feel the same."
In Panel 8, Ram continues "For a moment...I really thought we were going to die in there... And all I could think about was...what would be left of me after? A bit of grief, but what else? I really don't want my legacy to be one sad day, and a hard drive full of photographs..."

Page 16 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

Panel 1 shows a picture on a tablet screen of a young cat guy taking a mirror selfie. He is wearing a t-shirt that says MEWS in the style of the Muse band logo. In Panel 2 adjacent to that, a chipper Swan remarks "Ooh, photos! That makes sense! I thought they wanted to play Candy Crush or something", to which Ram looks at him disapprovingly.

In Panel 3, we see the same male cat, now happily posing in a selfie with a grey furred female cat. Swan remarks "Cute couple, this must've been their first date" and Ram responds "They don't look much older than us when we met..."
In Panel 4, we see the same cat couple on their wedding day, coming out of a church in traditional wedding attire, with a crowd greeting them and confetti in the air. Panel 5 sees Swan saying "I know that church! I've done shoots there. A few years later and I could've been the one taking those!"
In Panel 6, we see a close up of a newborn cat/kitten, with the orange cats hand holding the arm of the female cat who is holding them. Ram remarks "Their kids birth...I almost forgot, y'know? They died here too. They all died here" Swan then says "They must have had the account on this tablet for a decade...maybe more? So many years, so many moments..."
In Panel 7, we see the male and female cat, alongisde their young child, posing happily outside the house we're currently inside, before it burned-down. In Panel 8, Ram, tearily responds to Swan's comment with "Their whole life...in pictures." 
In Panel 8, the ghost that has been going through these photos lowers their head and closes their eyes. A tear moving down their cheek.Page 17 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, we see the previously shed ghost tear dropping to the ground, at which point it fizzles and forms a streak of flame that snakes towards the tablet in front of them.

In Panel 2, the previously mentioned photo of a happy family outside the house distorts into a image of the same family, silhouetted, running in panic as a fire starts to spread behind them. In Panel 3, a confused Ram says "W...what is that? Who could've even... taken that picture?" 

In Panel 4, partially obscured, we see another photo of the family trapped in the burning house. In Panel 5, which is subtly tilting, Ram, considerably more alarmed, says "That's...not possible! How is it doing that? This c-can't be real!!" whilst Swan, turning to him, quietly says "Ram..."

After that, a series of four increasingly fiery tablet images fill the screen, featuring shots of the family running, and a shot of two of them cowering in the corner as fire consumes them. The leading image is of one of the cats, presumably the ghost viewing the screen, screaming out in anguish as their body is consumed by fire. In a heavily tilted Panel 6, a terrified Ram screams "WHAT'S HAPPENING!?" whilst Swan, now grabbing him and moving backwards shouts "RAM!".
In Panel 7, Swan hurls Ram backwards, out of the panel itself, whilst embracing him. The tablet and charger explode behind them with a *KA-BOOM!*, and the ghostly figure kneeling in front of all that starts to blur and dissolve.

Even if you're ""ONLY"" using AI in the concept phase of art/writing, you're still fucking yourself and your potential audience over. By doing it, you're missing the journey that actually takes you to the destination. #Art #OCs #Swan&Ram
Three stages of the creation of two pages from Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.
The first box shows the script written before anything else, describing a similar series of events to the final product but differing in some notable ways.
The second box shows a very rough pencil sketch-out of the two pages, made to plan out their panels and layout before starting the real thing. They are largely the same as the final one in this instance, but can vary notably from time to time.
The third box shows the finished pages as they have been released.Two boxes showing the development of comic panels for Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.
The first box shows two early rough colour/style plans for potetnial future panels in the comic. The left-hand one, showing Ram at work, more or less gets the vibes right but is less detailed. The right-hand one, showing the burned-down house from the comic, is notably different.

The second box shows the finished panels, as seen in the comic.

Page 14 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

The first panel is framed from behind the previously dropped camcorder, and we can see through the viewfinder screen that the previously discovered entity is now standing in front of a fire-damaged airing cupboard.
In Panels 2, 3 and 4, we see Swan & Ram hiding inside the airing cupboard, looking terrified and dripping with sweat and tears.
In Panel 2, Swan says "Shitshitshitshit! We're going to fuckin' die! I killed us! On Date night!" To which Ram responds "Oh God...I'm not ready. There's so much I haven't done!"
In Panel 3, Swan continues "Did you ever actually think any of this stuff was real?" to which Ram replies "I...don't know? I wanted it to be, but mostly I just liked the vibes". Swan then asks  "W...what do we do?"
In Panel 4, Ram leans towards the airing cupboard door with a teary-eyed expression, saying "There's nothing more we can do...We just have to face the music. Hope for the best" to which a panicked Swan says "Ram, please! NO! I can't lose you! I can't be alone again!" 
In Panel 5, we're close up on Ram's terrified face as he opens the door from his previous crouching position. We can see the ghosts glowing reflection in his eyes.
In Panel 6, from outside the cupboard, we see the entity or ghost, standing there calmly, holding an object in front of themselves. Ram  says "Hhh...Well...they aren't killing me, yet".
In Panel 7, the ghost offers the object to a very surprised Ram who says "Huh, for me? Um...thanks?"
In Panel 8, he looks at the device in some surprise, saying "I...it's a Tablet?". An annoyed Swan leans over his shoulder, exclaiming "Oh COME ON! Hundreds of years of spirits in this house, and we end up with a millennial!?"Page 15 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1's first half, Ram looks at the tablet he's just been given, saying "Hm. It's dead. Let's see...2nd Gen model, need a charge cable and power pack". In the second half, we see him rummaging through his bum bag, which appears to be full of cables and other bits and bobs. Saying "Let me check my bag...uhh...Oh! What's this..."
In Panel 2, he holds up the previously mentioned objects, saying "Aha! Bingo!" whilst an amused Swan watches from behind, asking "Is there anything you don't have in that bag, Batman?" 
In Panel 3, Ram sets the charging tablet on the ground in front of the ghost, nervously staring at them as he says "Uh..I'm just gonna set this here. Let it charge up a little, then you can do...whatever you need on it..."
In Panel 4  we see the ghost kneel down in front of the tablet. In Panel 5, the screen/device turns on, with a small charge already added, and a loading icon visible on-screen.
In Panel 5, Swan remarks "Gee...that sure charged fast..." to which Ram responds "Shush..."
In Panel 6, a close-up of the now-on tablet screen, we see the ghosts finger-tip hone in on the icon for 'Photos', which it then taps.

Page 13 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, viewing down from a charred hole in the roof of the partially burned-down house, we see Swan and Ram walking up the stairs to the upper floor. Swan is muttering the Ghostbusters theme, specifically '...somethin' strange, in your neighbourhood...bum bum buna bum bum ba...'.
In Panel 2, Swan continues with this as he walks off off-screen with '...baaa ba baaa ba baaa ba ba ba bababa...', whilst a perturbed Ram looks down at the camcorder he's holding and goes "Hmm..."
In Panel 3, we see the perspective of the camera itself, a dark, static-laden image of a corridor where something is glinting faintly in the distance. Ram is saying "What...is that?" off-screen. 
In Panel 4, Ram says "Hey, hun? Can I get that torch over here?" to which a cheerful looking Swan leans in to say "You got it, toots."
In Panel 5 and 6, we see the torch light swinging around into that dark corridor, initially starting in the top right, before moving directly down the centre of the corridor, revealing a translucent being, presumably a ghost, standing there with two pale blue eyes and some sort of object held to their chest. Although we can see through them to the wall behind, they cast a deep shadow all the same.
In Panel 7, we see Ram and Swan, staring in quiet, wide-eyed shock at this entity. The ghost-hunting device Swan has been carrying around is, belatedly, going 'BEEEEP'.
In Panel 8, the pair of them, with horrified expressions on their face, and Swan reaching to grab an arm-splayed Ram, collectively let out a heavy 'AAGGGGGGHH!!!' of terror. Both Ram's camcorder and Swan's device fly out of their hands in either direction.

Page 11 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, which sees a shot of Swan reading from a book superimposed over a dramatic shot of the partially burned-down house, has Swan saying "Woodland House, formerly known as Ringtree Manor, has a history of unexplained tragedies, with dozens of people having died within its supposedly haunted walls, since it was built back in the late 19th century. Despite this, people continued to live here, right up to two years ago, when an unexplained fire almost burned it to the ground, and an entire family perished inside..."
In Panel 2, Swan slams the book shut and says to Ram"Cool, huh? Since you haven't had a chance to for a bit, why don't you man the camera?". Ram, who is putting on his bum bag at the same time, happily replies "Really, that'd be amazing! Thanks hun!"
In Panel 3, which is split into two, we see Ram reach for the fancy camera seen in the earlier pages of the comic, to which Swan says "Ah! No no...", which leads to Ram going "Huh?". Swan then hands him a small portable camcorder, saying "Here, use this!", to which Ram replies "The crappy 2000s camcorder we got from a charity shop? Why?"
In Panel 4, Swan says "'cuz the last time you used the expensive camera on a haunt, you dropped it in terror, when you saw a mouse. Almost broke it, mm?" Which a bashful looking Ram responds "Oh right...It was a really big mouse to be fair" 
In Panel 5, viewed through the perspective of the camcorder, we see Swan saying "Besides, if we die in the house and someone finds the footage, it'll look really spooky and low-fi on that thing! Just like in 'REC'!" To which Ram responds "This is true. Although I'd prefer not to be the one dragged backwards by a giant naked woman, okay?" 
In Panel 7, the car lights now off, Swan kisses Ram's forehead and says "You got it champ. Ready?" A bashful Ram says "Heh...yeah" in response.
In Panel 8, the two begin to approach the house, Swan says "Then let's go find some ghosts!"Page 12 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, we see the houses door creaking open loudly, torchlight flooding into a dark, ruined hallway. Swan & Ram silhouetted behind the light.
In Panel 2, we see the pair looking around the ruined hallway in shock. Ram says "Damn...what a mess". To which Swan replies  "Yeah...Guess we should take a look around, right?"
In Panel 3 we see Swan's webbed foot crunch over a broken, burned photo frame, to which Ram says "Watch your feet, babe!". 
In Panel 4, Swan continues into the lounge area, seen behind a burned sofa with exposed stuffing, with a charred teddy bear on the seat. He says "Hellloooo? Ghosties? Where the spooky party at?" 
In Panel 5, Ram looks at the burned imprint of what we can assume to be a dead body, reaching out for a adjacent surface with a dust-free square in the centre of it. He says "Jesus...hope you're in a better place now, buddy..."
In Panel 6, shot from the camcorder and therefore distorted, Ram (Off-screen) asks Swan "Any signs of activity yet, hun?" to which Swan, holding up a ghost hunting device with its read-out in the 0% margin, says "Zilch. Not a spook nor spectre to be found down here"
In Panel 7, Swan and Ram are both seen to be moving up a set of stairs. Swan is saying "Let's move upstairs, see if there are any ghosts hanging around up there", to which Ram replies "Right behind ya, gotta get a good shot of your ass after all", leading Swan to say "Heh, nice. Now I wish I had let you use the proper camera..."

One year on from their #PrideMonth debut, and a lot has changed for ol' Swan & Ram. But some things, namely the continued need to fight for ours and others right to be their true selves, and love who we love continues on, and we shall never give it up! #Art #Swan&Ram #Pride #Queer #OCs
A cartoon Swan and Ram couple attend a Pride parade/festival together. They are embracing and smiling towards each other. The Swan wearing a rainbow coloured flag as a cape and wearing a T-shirt hat says 'FIX YOUR HEARTS OR DIE' in the colours of the Trans flag. Whislt the ever more subtle Ram is donning a pair of small Pansexual flags on each of his horns, a 'Trans Rights' badge on his jacket, and the hints of a Pride shirt on underneath his jacket. Behind them various silhouetted figures move about, holding signs and flags. Confetti rains around them. The sun is shining behind them and casting a lens flare over the image.

Page 9 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In the first panel, prefaced by 'Some Time Later...' in the corner, we see the car turning left into a secluded forest path. The Sat-Nav says "Turn Left at Next Exit and then your Destination will be straight ahead.", to which Swan says "You heard the lady! Onwards, my dear Ram!".
In the second panel, we see the car driving down a dark, bumpy dirt road surrounded by trees. Ram says "Hmm, this road seems a little ominous" to which Swan replies "Right!? it's awesome!" 
In the third panel, the drive down the path continues, an out-of-sight to the car damaged road sign reading "CONDEMNED PROPERTY: NO TRESPASSING". Swan is saying "Just park up anywhere ahead, alright?" to which Ram says "I'm starting to worry we really are dogging..."
In the fourth panel, looking in through the front window of the car, we see a surprised Ram look up and say "Uh..." whilst the SatNav says "You have reached your destination". We see the distorted reflection of a building in the window.
In Panel 5, we see where they've arrived. A large, moonlit, damaged house stands in front of the car, to which Ram has just exited. In front of the house is a broken fence. Ram says "My surprise is...a partially burned-down house?"Page 10 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, Swan, standing in front of the car boot, about to open it, says "Correction..."
In Panel 2, from inside the now open boot, we see a smiling Swan and bemused Ram. Swan is saying "A prtially broken-down, HAUNTED house!"
In Panel 3, looking into the boot, we see a box labelled 'Ghost Huntin' Stuff!' which contains numerous devices for paranormal investigations, in addition to a crucifix and a copy of the Ghostbusters original soundtrack. To the right is a camera, some tools, and the book and bum bag received from Swan & Ram respectively in the Christmas comic. to the right we see a Tesco bag, some blankets (Swan packed them after all) and Swan's satchel. Swan is off-screen saying "Taaah daaaah!"
In Panel 4, a somewhat amused Ram says "Well, that would explain why the car boot was full of ghost hunting stuff this morning..." to which Swan replies "Heh...yeaaah..."
In Panel 5, a close-up of Swan, he says "I guess I just wanted tonight to be special... It's our anniversary soon, and I know you'll be late home, and that's fine! But I couldn't let it pass without doing something special for you...for us! We met through our love of this kinda thing, and it's been so long since we did a ghost hunt. I...I just thought it'd be nice. So...ah...did I do good?"
In Panel 6, Ram says, smiling "Well...I think most 'normal' people would say it's a bit morbid. But we're not normal, are we babe? It's perfect" To which Swan grins.

Page 7 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, which is prefaced with 'Some Awkward Munching Time Later...', a slightly nervous but smiling Swan says "Hey...so...uh...I did have a little surprise for you this evening..."
In Panel 2, a still upset looking Ram looks back hopefully, responding "Really? It's not another 'Die Box' movie, is it? The first three were fun enough, but once they started going into space..."
In Panel 3, a visibly more excited Swan responds with "No no...It's something even MORE exciting than that! It's a surprise though, so you'll just have to see for yourself."
In Panel 4, he continues, whilst cupping Ram's cheek with a hand, "But fear not, my dear. You're never more than one bargain bin away from another instalment of horror's messiest, horniest franchise."
In Panel 5, a cheered up Ram cleans the leftover food packets up, whilst Swan leans down and presses buttons on the dashboard, saying "Let me just put the address into the ol' SatNav, and you can drive us right there!"
In Panel 6, we see Ram deposit the rubbish in a adjacent bin (With the PSA 'Bin It, you Tit!' on the front), saying "A two hour drive!? I hope this surprise is really worth it..."
In Panel 7, they start to drive off, with Swan saying "Trust me, this is gonna be a Date Night you'll never forget!"Page 8 of Swan & Ram Chapter 1: A Life in Pictures.

In Panel 1, we see their car driving down a road, to the left of them is a sign that says "Now Leaving 'Little Spoonington' - Twinned with 'Le Grande Cuillère', along with a 50mph notice.
In Panel 2, we see the SatNav path, taking them down a long, straight road.  Ram, off-screen says "Okay, let's see if I can guess what the surprise is..."
In Panel 3, Ram now visible and driving the car, continues with "Is it...one of those weird, arty circus shows where all the performers start making out at the end?"
In Panel 4, Swan, looking amused whilst staring out the passenger window says "Not this time, no..."
In Panel 5, a shot of them both in the car, Ram continues, with a sly look on his face "Let's see...we're driving deep into the woods...Oh! Are we going dogging?". Swan, with an amused look, responds "What?! No!". Ram replies with "'Cuz that's the sorta surprise you gotta give a guy head's up on, y'know..." to which Swan replies "Girl, we ain't dogging!"
In Panel 6, the car driving off into the distance, with the moon in the sky, the conversation continues. Ram saying "I'm just sayin', if we are, you better have packed the blankets..." to which Swan replies "Don't make me come over there!"
