now, you may say to me: "jacki, she studied this man for years, how did she not know?" would you test if a laboratory mouse could read? probably not. anyways, bon is not proud of his illiteracy. sad day for him.
a little over 2 weeks left to participate in the KoS anniversary giveaway! if you've already made something for KoS, art, writing, whatever, you just need to post it again! no need to create anything new.
TRANSCRIPT:
panel 1: Tera loosens her tie to remove it while pulling out a folder from a document box with her other hand. she's not looking at bon as she starts: "I'll start with the program journals. Bon- can you start on the Cadian royalty books?"
panel 2: Bon grimaces and sweats as Tera continues (off-screen): "Create a lineage chart for King Marek, I want to see if he's connected to the early rulers somehow." Bon looks to the side and meekly replies: "I can't"
panel 3: Tera starts going through some papers, but pauses to raise and eyebrow at Bon. Tera: "you don't know how to create a lineage chart? just go through his listed relatives-"
panel 4: Bon tenses, grabbing onto his jacket until it starts smoking (again). Bon: "I. CAN'T."
panel 5: Tera pauses to chastise Bon: "don't be difficult, Bon. I can help if you get stuck-"
panel 6: Bon covers his face and blurts out: "I CAN'T READ, OKAY?!" Marsione and Tera both look surprised at the sudden outburst.
panel 7: the admission fully hits Tera and she is shocked. She lets out a little: "eh?"
panel 8: Tera and Bon are discussing loudly in the background as Marsione recieves an alert. Tera: "you weren't taught?! I thought you were-" Bon interrupts her: "I COULD AND NOW I CAN'T, ALRIGHT?" They look goofy. A large red magic circle appears in front of Marsione, surprising her. Magic circle: "ALERT. MARSIONE, ALERT." Marsione: "Marcel?"
panel 9: The magic circle (Marcel, the skull from earlier) continues: "PREACHAN HAVE BEEN SPOTTED IN TODE BALAN. APPROACHING LIBRARY."
panel 10: Tera and Bon are distracted from their discussion and look to each other in surprise. Magic circle Marcel: "REPEAT. ALERT. PREACHAN HAVE BEEN SPOTTED IN TODE BALAN APPROACHING LIBRARY. ALERT."
