#266: Choices: Part 3 explain

Choices: Part 3

[A white Megan floats in a bubble against a dark blue space backdrop. She is at the top of the bubble. Her thoughts (not connected to her by a speak line) are shown above her in white.]

Megan (thinking): I should feel scared.

[She falls from the top of the bubble, the bubble rises, or both.]

Megan (thinking): But I don’t.

[She hits the bottom of the bubble, and the bubble begins to fall down.]

Megan (thinking): Maybe this is a dream.

[She floats over the top of the now still bubble.]

Megan (thinking): But it doesn’t feel like one.

[She now floats in the middle of the still bubble, in a larger panel. The sky behind her now has many stars and light effect. A voice speaks from off-panel above.]

Voice (off panel): Okay, found you.

Megan: Who are you?

Voice (off panel): Er, hang on.

Voice (off panel): This next part might be a little weird.

[Beat panel, where Megan just floats in her bubble on the same background, but in a smaller panel.]

[A large panel where many distorted copies of Megan whirl around the original Megan in her bubble; she also bends backwards. The stars and light display in the background is more clear around her bubble, that now creates a lens effect, that even distorts the distorted Megans even more. Around her bubbles edge and the lens edge, there are three places where brown lines appear on both these edges.]

[All the copies have disappeared except for one who is hanging suspended outside Megan in her bubble. The new one is almost a mirror image, but not quite. The background is more dark blue, with fewer features.]

[The Megan copy raises her hand and speaks. There are again more stars in the background.]

Megan copy: Sorry — hi, me.

Megan: …Hi.
