Lead singer of Hannibal: This song is 'I Want You Back, once again dedicated to my ex…No, not that one, the other one…
The crowd: DUDE, GET OVER IT!
Caption near female guitarist: (don't worry, she's sick of this too)
Caption near male guitarist: (he's sick of this)
Caption in the top right: (he's hidden behind the guitarist, but the drummer is also sick of this. But at least he can take it out on the snares and cymbals…)
Image 2: Everyone is gathering for a drink to try and forget Hannibal's lead singer's seven songs in a row about his many exes.

Ulna: WE'RE SCREWED! WE'RE DONE FOR! NOW WE'LL NEVER MAKE IT AS MUSICIANS EVER!!! I WISH WE WERE DEAD! WAIT. WE ARE DEAD. WELL I WISH WE WERE DEADER THAN DEAD, IF SUCH A THING EXISTS-
A caption near the fans: (can skeletons even cry…?)

Māhealani: Okay, look - you're at the wrong festival. But if you're already signed up now, then I guess you've not got much choice. The fans will be upset if an act backs out. But the people at Edgewave don't care for perfect! We care about heart and passion above all else. I bet we could try and get you set-ready! Some of the most famous bands who play at Edgewave started out with nothing but an instrument and a dream, and look where they are now!
Ulna: You'd…you'd do that just for us?
Māhealani: Look, it might not be easy, but I know the crowd is gonna love you one way or the other. I mean, you're skeletons. What's cooler than a skeleton? Anyhow, first off, we have to make sure you have the look down!
Image 5: EDGEWAVE 2026 - RULE 1 OF EDGEWAVE: DON'T TALK ABOUT EDGEWAVE YOU GOTTA LOOK THE PART!
EDGEWAVE IS NOT ABOUT LOOKING PERFECT, IT'S ABOUT GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN, AND MAKING IT UP AS YOU GO ALONG! IT'S ABOUT AUTHENTICITY.

Brooke: Well, what do you two think? We both think you look awesome! It's a shame clothes don't fit you properly, but we still think you're cool!
Māhealani: See? You don't need to spend a lot of money to look the way we do! Hell, I altered this jacket myself with some sewing needles and a dream.

Caption between the skeletons: (You may be wondering why clothes don't fit on a skeleton and so they can't wear them, but earrings can. And the only answer I have is: they're talking skeletons, don't ask too many questions.)
Tibia: Are you sure about this, ladies? What if the meatbags think we look ridiculous?!
Ulna: TIBIA, we've gone over this. You can't just call people 'meatbags'!

Melody: WOW! Amazing costume! You two look AWESOME!
Tibia: Oh? What a polite meatb- I mean, person! I can't believe it, Ulna! We're…we're…
