The Boo-Ya! #10: Pages 11-12
Page 11, 6 Panels- Robin's Room, The Boo-Ya!
Panel 1: Cut to a shot of Dr. Arxin a beat later, standing in front of the doorway leading to her room. She has a small wireless speaker gripped in the right hand and what appears to be a wine bottle in the left, wrapped on the top by a chain that is gripped in her left hand. There's the appearance of a smile that can be seen through the center of the glass shield to her helmet.
DR. ARXIN [recognizing the situation immediately, to Robin]: You look like someone who needs to get out of their head for a bit. I've got a few bags of Weee, along with an awesome Time Bubble if you want to--
Panel 2-3: A two-part set of panels that moves back on our human heroine at the base of the bed. In Panel 2, she looks up toward the ceiling with a shade of confusion in her eyes. A second later, in Panel 3, Robin notices the bottle and the speaker in her hands and starts to piece together just what's going on.
ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [thoughtless chuckle, Panel 2]: I'm fine. Just...just dealing with nerves, that's all. I'll be fine before the big plan gets going. DR. ARXIN [Off-Panel, Panel 2]: That's all? Nerves? Pfft! DR. ARXIN [Cont. Off-Panel, Panel 3]: I can certainly help with that! ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [confused, Panel 3]: The hell...is that a wireless speaker?
Panel 4: We move back to an action shot of An'x laughing, walking inside the room. The doors behind her sliding shut as she speaks. She flings the small speaker up toward the ceiling, while the bottle (guided by the chain) swings over to her right hand.
DR. ARXIN [shaking her head with a smirk]: I have no idea what the hells a "wireless speaker" is. This is a Personal Music Systemer (PMS), though I prefer to call it better the Boss. It holds millions of songs within its relatively small container, crystal clear sound, and a really cool feature.
Panel 5-6: A two-part set of panels that starts out in the same setting and layout as the previous panel. In Panel 5, An'x tilts her head up in the direction of the PMS that is located off-panel left to give its command. The music just beginning to start up in the same direction. In the next panel, half minute later, the setting moves toward the opposite corner of the room where stands the hologram of a tall, lanky five-armed David Bowie like androgynous alien with purple eyes and an ovular head. They're playing a tri-guitar with piano keys below; each note setting off a collection of fireworks that litter the sky above it.
DR. ARXIN [to the PMS, Panel 5]: Concert Mode, please... DR. ARXIN [Cont.; Panel 5, Bubble 2]: Ja3ie=7 B9ow'ex- "6-4" JA3IE=7 B9OW'EX [Panel 6]: "1 kno5 whe8 t10 g12 ou15 1n3 whe7 t9 sta13 i15 1e3 th6ng9 don13..." Page 12, 5 Panels- Robin's Room, the Boo-Ya!
Panel 1: We move to an action shot of An'x dancing jumpstyle moments later to the song as it continues on, wafting in from the left of the panel view. You can hear the sound of banging on the floor coming from her boots underneath the sound of the music playing, though she isn't phased by the sound too much.
JA3IE=7 BOW'EX [Cont. Off-Panel]: "1 ca4c6 7 p9pe12 bo15 Bu3 th6ng9 don'13 r15all19 chang25 1'm sta6d8ng i12 th15 wi18d Bu3 4 n6ve9 wav13 by16-by19 Bu3 4 tr7 8 tr11..."
Panel 2: Cut to Robin looking on at the scene (along with the holographic musical performance) with a sense of surprised wonderment at the display in front of her. She hasn't moved an inch from her position on the bed compared to when we last saw her near the end of the previous page.
ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [to Dr. Arxin]: Very Bowie-esque. Is...is that numbers? DR. ARXIN [Off-Panel, to Robin]: That's how the Blaowstarians speak. It has a blend of numeric and alphabetical in its speeches. He's one of the greatest artists of Blaowstar. ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [Bubble 2]: That is awesome... ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [Bubble 3]: Just out of curiousity, how do you not make a massive hole doing all that though? Or sweat profusely in that bloody suit of yours? JA3IE=7 B9OW'EX [Off-Panel]: "T2er5's n8 si11n 13f l16fe 1t'3 ju6t t9e po13er t17 c19arm"
Panel 3: Back to the good Doctor in a similar action shot, continuing her dancing routine as she moves closer to our human heroine with little effort. You can see, in the background to the left, the holographic Bow'ex singing and playing his instrument, creating sparkly plaid colors in the ceiling as she speaks.
DR. ARXIN [chuckling, boastfully]: With skill and many rohtlas of practice. As for the sweat...you don't want to know. JA3IE=7 B9OW'EX: "1'm l4in7 i9 th12 ra15n..."
Panel 4-5: A two-part set of panels that moves to a ceiling shot showcasing the two of them. In Panel 4, An'x extends her free hand out toward our human heroine, which she grabs with a bit of trepidation. In Panel 5, she slowly stands up as the Doctor pops open the wine bottle with one thrust of the chain, which flies off along with the top. It's also in this panel that you can hear an extended guitar riff being played off-panel.
DR. ARXIN [Cont., Panel 4]: Now, my human friend relax, get this tasty Tien-Zo into your system, and shift into the right headspace before we hit the Capitol. ROBIN CARTWRIGHT [confused, Panel 4]: Okay... JARIE=7 B9OW'EX [Off-Panel, Panel 4]: "B2t 4 ne7er 10a12e b14e-b16e B2t 4 5r7, 8 9r11..." DR. ARXIN [excited, Panel 5]: Ah, I hear-t'ness this next part... JARIE=7 B9OW'EX [Off-Panel, Panel 5]: "Ne3e5 g7n9a f11ll 14or..."
