Back to normal.

Note : because my crash-test readers ALL asked the same question “What on earth are the doing in the first panel?!”, I’ll pre answer.

They are reading a screenplay out loud. Anyone out there remembers (introvert’s nightmare) the times when your teacher asked the class to learn some lines and perform them/or just read them in front of everyone ?

 “How does a conversation degenerate ?” part. 2

[second-lives-midnight-tales]

Here lies one of my biggest challenges scenariowise. How to :

- not minimize Solveig’s agression/harassement

- underline the violence of her reaction without de-legitimize it

- get readers to empathize with her (huge mental and physical fatigue + difficult/scary situation = extreme choices). This also goes for the other two, who try to cling on to whatever they can to keep moving.

I hope I succeded and did not fell into these crowds who think that “the victim is overreacting”.

Also, it was interesting to reflect upon the way a conversation can degenerate, and try and reproduce the process.
