#1839: Doctor Visit explain
[Cueball is seated on an medical examination table while Ponytail stands dressed in a doctor’s coat holding a file in her right hand.]
Cueball: Everything look good?
Ponytail: I don’t get how your body has been moving around for years and still works at all. My USB cables fray after like a month.
Ponytail: Your heart has been pumping for decades without pausing for even a few minutes.
Ponytail: And your eyes! They’re so fragile and exposed!
[Zoom in on Cueball gazing at his palms.]
Ponytail (off-panel): You’re full of all these high-pressure fluids and intricate parts that could kill you in seconds if they stopped working!
[Zoom out again to the entire scene.]
Cueball: …can you just tell me whether I’m healthy?
Ponytail: Yeah, you’re fine.
Ponytail: Which is weird, given that your body is basically made from dissolved bread.
