The Community, Issue 1: Part 3.1

Panel 1: In a pure black environment, we see Seanna standing in the center of the panel shot and singing; a spotlight shining squarely down on them.

SEANNA

(singing)

Here we are in the future/ Here we are in the future/ And it's bright/ Nothing to fear/ No one to fight...

Panel 2: Action shot of Seanna walking across toward the stage right area a beat later. You can see a glimmer of hope in their eyes as they're singing.

SEANNA

(Cont., singing)

I can't believe/We've come so far/Happily ever after...

Panel 3: In mid-stride, they've stopped singing at the presence of a weird sound floating in from off-panel right; a look of fascination and confusion on their face.

SEANNA

What the...?

Panel 4: Cut to a shot of the mystery light blue energy floating calmly in the air in front of Seanna.

SEANNA

(Cont.)

I know it's not a pot thing or a 'Shrooms thing ('cause I don't take either).

(Bubble 2)

Is...Is this a new side effect?

Panel 1: A two-part set of panels that shifts back to the real world. We see Seanna stepping away from the line toward a garbage can illuminated by a beam of sunlight at that point.

Panel 2: In the second part, moments later, they crash into the can and stumble toward the upstage part of the panel view; the purse still strapped over their person. You can see some of the other people still in line partially noticing the incident.

Panel 3: Seanna slowly pulls themselves back onto their feet; their left hand rubbing the side of their ribcage.

ANT

(Off-Panel)

Oof, that's brutal!

Panel 4: Cut to a shot of ANT- a woman in her 30s with a shaved head and similar androgynous appearance. She's wearing a light blue SNICK throwback mid-riff and a pair of jeans.

ANT

(Cont., to Seanna sympathetically; holding the line)

You okay, dude?

Panel 5: Watkins nods in the woman's direction as they walk back to the line. You can see a bit of the sun and mostly blue sky in the top of the background.

SEANNA

(to Ant, calmly explanatory)

I'm good (embarrassing stumble notwithstanding).

SEANNA

(Bubble 2; reacting to Panel 6, Bubble 1)

Ha! Genderfluid, actually- they/them pronouns. I have a nice collection of skirts back home that I'm...selectful in terms of wearing.

SEANNA

(Bubble 3; reacting to Panel 6, Bubble 2)

Perp?

Panel 6: Back to Ant in the same setting as Panel 4. The layout tightens in a little more to her body. She flashes a bit of a surprised look on her face, touched with joy as well.

ANT

(slight grin)

Nice hair. Metal fan or aspiring drag queen?

ANT

(Bubble 2; reacting to Panel 5, Bubble 2)

Totally understandable. I'm non-binary. I can tolerate "she/her," but personally- I prefer the term Perp.

ANT

(Bubble 3; reacting to Panel 5, Bubble 3)

Short for Purple- pink and blue mixed together. I thought it was a snazzier way of saying...
