“Origin Story” As the title might suggest, we are about to enter origin story mode. Nob is really stalling, but we will be starting soon. And it should last about a year our time. Just a little warning that things will get more intense towards the end of the flashback, perhaps more than some previous scenes, but nothing too extreme.
Be careful out there.
In a very close shot inside Puccini's tower, Bam is listening intently next to the doorless entrance to Whiskit's classroom. So intent that the gobos right eye - swollen shut from a previous accident - is creaked open.
Nob, offscreen: "<But, in order to talk about Wak...>"
Panel 2
Within Whiskit's classroom, Nob is walking away from both the view and the homunculus teacher, who is close and just in view. The gobo leader makes a sweeping gesture with the left hand while the right remains at the base of the back. Nob's expression is hidden from view...
Nob: "<I must speak of a time prior to our arrival at the mine.>"
Panel 3
...but is soon revealed when the view flips. Nob tries to glance back without a turn of the head, a look of reservation and nervousness present. Whiskit is - once more - just in view, eyes glowing while transmitting the discussion to Puccini (offscreen).
Nob, weakly: "<Better told over a day than just one evening.>"
Puccini, offscreen transmitting through Whiskit: "Just keep it plain."
Panel 4
The scene returns to the corridor off of Whiskit's classroom. Bam has wasted no time running down and away from the viewer, making a left at the T-intersection at the end.
Nob, offscreen: "<Even still, this story will fill some hours. I fear you will be asleep before it ends.>"
