The dark background in the second and third panel are very effective. It drags you right into the dispair of Corelle's mom..

This is how I've heard people describe it, at least.

aaand just as I read this part of the comic, I was listening to the intro music from the movie up (showing the married life) and it hit the sad end bit.

I love how you overcast everything with a shade of blue.
It really makes the sadness totally striking and breathtaking.
It reminds me of the day I got home from first grade and my mother was in the back yard, sobbing. Her father had died after a short battle with ALS.
I remember how blue the sky was. One of the only times in Washington State it wasn't raining.
Blue. It's the color of your heart when all the warmth leaves you because you realize that your life is suddenly going to be much emptier.

Vault dweller uniform-colored pajamas... Intentional?

Yeah. She made them herself, hence the rough stitching.

Damn, that sucks. I hope to never have that duty of breaking the news to a family that someone isn't coming back. I don't think I could handle it.

Ah damn it this is so realistic/relatable.
I like how you removed the background for panel 2 and 3. It really adds the feeling of dread and numbness and pain and shock.

Thank you. I remember people saying that they were 'enveloped in grey' in moments of grief related shock, so that's how I tried to get it across.
