the LES isn't exactly far away

Panel 1: Frances says to Sara, "So... Do you think you're going to look for a 'real' job again soon?"

Panel 2: Sara replies, "Does Takeout even count as 'real'? Like, there were no benefits..." Frances says, "Ugh. True."

Panel 3: Sara continues, "I mean -- I guess I should look. I'd like to live somewhere nicer eventually." Frances says, "It's hard! Do you want to stay in the city?" Sara answers, "Where else would I go?"

Panel 4: She obviously thinks for a moment and then says, "Wait -- Are YOU thinking of moving away?"

Panel 5: Frances says, "I think about everything! It seems like it'd be easier... maybe? Less expensive, anyway."

Panel 6: Sara, looking a bit skeptical, says, "Haven't you only ever lived in Queens?" Frances says, "Hey! I lived on the Lower East Side for almost a year. But FINE. Point taken. I've been here forever."
