A full color comic. In the first panel, Emily leans back on a couch, clearly exhausted, dressed in a sweatshirt and pajama pants, clutching onto a steaming mug of coffee. "Ughhhhh," she groans, "I guess it's time to take the Christmas tree down." In the second panel, Emily moves toward a door, reaching for the handle. In the background, a tiny tree and canvas sit on a key ring holder, a sense of how the rest of the apartment is decorated. "I'll go ahead and haul the boxes up here," Emily starts, readying to open the door. In the third panel, Emily stands in front of the now-open door, her way blocked by a large, featureless humanoid mass that takes up almost the entire door frame. The figure is labeled "Season Depression," and they mumble out a tiny "hey." In between the third and fourth panels is a large "SLAM" sound effect, the colors creating a vibrating sensation. In the fourth and last panel, Emily turns away from the once-again closed door, a look of trepidation on her face. "Onnnnn second thought," she begins, "It can wait til next week. The lights are nice, after all."

Thanks as always for reading. See you next week! (Or next year, haha, hooooo)
