Panel 1 [Adelaide lays her bag on the bed. Barzillai stands behind her, looking over her shoulder and nodding at the bed.]
BARZILLAI:
Had I more time, I would’ve had the bed gimbaled for you. It would’ve helped with seasickness, but...
Panel 2 [Adelaide turns back to him, grinning, and he’s returning the smile, his hand gently beneath her chin]
ADELAIDE:
Perhaps I’ll enjoy the rolling.
BARZILLAI:
We’ll see if you’re still of that mind in about…three hours.
Panel 3 [Barzillai walks back into the stateroom, gesturing to it slightly as Adelaide steps into the doorway between the stateroom and the cabin, head cocked to the side.]
BARZILLAI:
I hope this will be enough space for you. There may be quieter occasions for you to take the air on deck but—
ADELAIDE:
Oh, I hope you don’t expect me to confine myself to just these two rooms.
Panel 4 [Closer view of Barzillai looking over at her, looking flustered and trying to justify his reasoning with a concerned expression]
BARZILLAI:
The rest of this ship it’s…it’s not fit for…
Panel 5 [Shot over Barzillai’s shoulder as Adelaide steps up to him, not nearly as bothered as he, almost amused]
ADELAIDE:
You needn’t worry about me. I can handle myself quite well.

I love the slant of light here and the way you’ve been utilising the deck prisms as sort of stage-lights.

Thank you! I think deck prisms are so exciting. I’m glad I get to use them for lighting.
