So, I know that Zoe’s response in the first panel should be a question mark.

But the way teenagers respond like that don’t sound like questions. It’s a command. Her “what” is more “Get it over with.”

And so I went against grammatical rules to reflect that.

I mean, I make mistakes all the time. But this time it was on purpose!
