Rhapsody Mazurka

Author's Notes

Originally completed on April 18th, 2026.

Show page transcript

[PANEL 1]
Mazurka sits in the foreground, her back to the camera with a sheepish expression.
MAZ: Isn't that what everyone says?
Rhapsody sits across from her with her arms folded and pouting, looking off to the side while blushing.
RHAPSODY: Yeah, well, with us it was actually true.

[PANEL 2]
A shot of Maz from Rhapsody's point-of-view. The corners of the panel are slightly black. Maz herself is laughing slightly to herself, covering her mouth with her hand to obscure it.
MAZ: Of course, sorry.
RHAPSODY: Regardless, I...

[PANEL 3]
Same perspective. The dark corners around the panel have started to fill in more. Maz is now looking towards Rhapsody/the viewer with a patient smile. The background of the page behind the panels has started to shift from a light purple to a dark purple.
MAZ: ...you...?
Maz's speech bubble appears behind the black that is filling in the panel.
RHAPSODY: I... uh...

[PANEL 4]
RHAPSODY (shakily): bleeegh...
The black corners have almost fully overtaken the panel now, with only the center not obscured. Maz is now leaning forwards and extending her hand in a concerned expression. Half of Maz's speech bubble is obscured (although you an still tell what she's saying).
MAZ: Oh, shit. Rhapsody?
RHAPSODY: ...I...

[PANEL 5]
The background behind the panels is now fully dark purple, near-black. The blackness filling in the panels has now overtaken it and no actual image is shown.
RHAPSODY: ...I think I'm gonna hurl.

[PANEL 6]
A smaller panel below panel 5 depicting nothing but the black scribbles. No dialogue.

Rhapsody

Author's Notes

I hope that panel 4 properly captures the feeling of "where am I and how did I get here."

Also, this is the second scene of Rhapsody waking up within a single chapter. This girl be snoozin'.

Show page transcript

[BEFORE PANEL 1]
The darkness of the previous page slowly mellows out into a lighter purple and then white, with the bottom 4/5 of the page continuing with a solid white background.

[PANEL 1]
A shot of the sun with some birds flying near it. No dialogue.

[PANEL 2]
A shot of the interior of a beige room, with a TV halfway in-frame, and a window to the right of it with light pouring in. No dialogue.

[PANEL 3]
A close-up of Rhapsody's face, with the beam of light hitting her in one eye. That eye is shut tightly, while the other eye is open and looking towards the light source agitatedly. No dialogue.

[PANEL 4]
A zoomed-out show of the same scene from panel 3, now depicting Rhapsody laying on a couch, her head on a red pillow and her body covered in a matching red blanket. Rhapsody now has a wide-eyed expression of shock, clearly unsure of where she is. No dialogue.

[Panel 5]
Rhapsody quickly places her hand on the couch and pushing herself up to look around the room. The blanket falls halfway off her as she does so, showing she's still in her work clothes from the previous night, although now her tie is draped over the arm of the couch under her pillow. No dialogue.
