While Jesus was walking, he saw a man who had been born blind. His followers asked him, “Teacher, whose sin caused this man to be born blind—his own sin or his parents’ sin?” Jesus answered, “It was not because of his sin or his parents’ sin. He was born blind so that God’s power could be shown in him. While it is daytime, we must continue doing the work of the one who sent me. Night is coming, and no one can work at night. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” After saying this, Jesus spat on the ground and made some mud with the saliva. He put the mud on the man’s eyes. Then he told him, “Go and wash in the Pool of Siloam.” (Siloam means “Sent.”) So the man went to the pool, washed, and came back able to see. Some people had seen this man begging before. They and his neighbours said, “Look! Is this the same man who used to sit and beg?” Some said, “Yes, he is the one.” But others said, “No, he only looks like him.” The man himself said, “I am the man.” They asked, “What happened? How did you get your sight?” He answered, “The man they call Jesus made some mud and put it on my eyes. Then he told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed, and then I could see.”

The scene begins with a boy named Krop leaving a job application place, slightly sad because he was rejected for a job again. He returns to his apartment and begins thinking about his career future. He opens the fridge but finds nothing to eat. He goes to a store to buy some food, and on his way back, he hears a girl screaming in a dark alley. He quickly enters to see and starts hearing a girl crying, and when he gets close to her, her facial features change and she tells him, "You fool," releasing a strange energy on his stomach that throws him backward. When he gets up and looks at her, he finds her flickering like a TV screen. He says, "Who are you, for heaven’s sake?" She says, "You shouldn’t see me like this, but who cares? I can simply delete myself from your memory, and in this way, we will defeat you." The hero thinks to himself, "Wait, delete myself? Memory? Delete memory?? Do you want to erase my memory of the time I saw you, but I must remember what I’ve seen now? This is dangerous. And why is she flickering like a TV? Is she not real?" He looks at the pen in his pocket and says, "I found it," pulls it out quickly, looks at her flickering body, and starts writing on his hand. He writes: "Strange flickering." She notices and says, "What!" and makes a hand snap that makes him lose consciousness for a moment and lower his head. The girl says, "I understand, he wants to write notes about me on his hand," and suddenly hears someone approaching, so she says, "Who cares? It won’t help him," and leaves, dropping an accessory with a strange symbol. Krop regains consciousness on the ground. A man comes to help him and asks, "What happened?" He replies, "I don’t know." Then he says, "Why am I here, and why do I feel pain?" He stands up and reads what is written on his hand. He is surprised and says, "This is my handwriting, but when and why?" He starts trying to understand and finds that symbol on the ground, then says, "It seems something happened here." Krop returns to his apartment. He starts eating his dinner while thinking, "What does ‘strange flickering’ mean? Does that mean I saw something strange, and why can’t I remember it?" He holds that symbol and says, "And what is this also?" "Ah, this seems strange." He gets up, goes to make his coffee, and watches TV. When he turns it on, there’s flickering on the screen. He says, "Ah, again, this flickering… Flickering!!" By the way, if I was the one who wrote it, the closest word to ‘flickering’ I remember is ‘TV flicker.’ He starts staring at the flickering, then turns off the TV and goes to sleep. The next day, he wakes up to a ringing phone. He answers: "Krop here." He says, "Yes." The caller says, "We reviewed your file that you submitted for the job here last week." He says, "Wait, who are you?" The caller replies, "I am the manager of Cardo Cafe, and you have been accepted. You need to be here before 8 AM to start work." Krop responds happily, "Finally, thank you so much! I’m coming right away." He gets up quickly, puts on his clothes, grabs a piece of bread, and rushes to the cafe. He enters and finds the waiter asking, "What do you want?" He replies, "I’m here to work." The waiter says, "Oh, you’re the new recruit? The manager told me about you. My name is Sarodem, call me Saro, and my colleague here is Mira. The manager is Grim. I hope you enjoy your time with us." Then the manager comes and says to Krop, "Come here, I’ll give you your work uniform, and you’ll start cleaning now." Krop removes his clothes, puts on the work uniform, and gives his clothes to Saro to hide. Krop starts working with them, cleaning tables and floors. Saro brings drinks and coffee, and Mira is the waitress taking orders and serving them. After a long day of work, their shift ends. Krop tells Saro to give him back his clothes. Saro goes to the storage room, picks up Krop’s clothes, and as soon as he carries them, that symbol falls. Saro examines it for a moment and says, "What is this thing? It’s strange," then returns it and gives the clothes back to Krop. Krop changes back into his clothes and returns to his apartment, only to find the door open, even though he made sure to lock it with the key he keeps under the carpet outside. He thinks he forgot to lock it. When he enters, he finds the place messy, as if someone entered. He starts searching around the apartment for anything missing and finds that nothing was stolen. He begins thinking about why a thief would come to him, even though his apartment isn’t luxurious

Halaman 1 Hujan baru saja reda. Jalanan masih basah, bercermin lampu-lampu kota yang mulai menyala. Laki-laki itu berjalan cepat, menunduk, menghindari genangan. Perempuan itu datang dari arah berlawanan, buru-buru, payung di tangan masih menetes. Mereka hampir bertabrakan. Laki-laki itu terhenyak. Maaf, ucapnya refleks. Lalu ia mendongak. Dan waktu seolah berhenti. Perempuan itu juga membeku. Payung di genggamannya hampir jatuh. Mata mereka bertemu. Cukup sedetik, tapi cukup lama untuk merasa dunia di sekitar mereka menghilang. Laki-laki itu tak bisa berkata-kata. Ia hanya melihat rambutnya yang sedikit basah, rintik hujan yang masih menempel di bulu matanya, dan senyum kecil yang tersungging di bibirnya karena kecanggungan ini. Perempuan itu akhirnya tersenyum. Maaf, balasnya lirih. Tanpa sepatah kata lagi tentang perasaan yang baru saja tumbuh, mereka berlalu. Saling menoleh sekilas, lalu tersenyum sendiri. Di tengah dinginnya malam usai hujan, hangat yang aneh justru bersemayam di dada mereka masing-masing.

El auto viejo que no quería trabajar En el fondo del galpón del campo había un auto viejo, de esos que alguna vez fueron orgullosos y brillantes cuando eran nuevos, pero que ahora estaban cubiertos de un polvo tan grueso que parecía harina. Todos lo llamaban “Silencio”, el auto. Cada mañana el ogro pasaba por delante, lo miraba y decía: —Che auto… ¿hoy querés arrancar? Y el auto respondía con un ruido que parecía un abuelo: —No… ay, no… déjenme dormir… El papá escuchó eso y se largó a reír. —Parece que se queja como si fuera un sueño eterno. —Y sí —dijo la vaca—, vive acostado. Pero ese día el ogro tenía que mover unas cajas enormes. —¡Auto, por favor! ¡Un empujoncito nomás! Y el auto respondió con el esfuerzo más falso del mundo: —¡Ay, no! ¡Me duele la batería! El Sapo Aldo se acercó, lo tocó con un dedo y quedó lleno de polvo. —¡Ay, parezco un churro! —gritó, estallando de risa. —Bueno —dijo la vaca—, habrá que limpiarlo un poco antes de encenderlo. Fue entonces cuando apareció el gato, caminando con la aspiradora detrás como si fuera su mascota favorita. —¡Acá vengo a salvar el día! —dijo levantando la cola. La aspiradora venía rodando, torpe, chocando todo: boom boom boom boom. Cuando la encendieron, empezó a aspirar tan fuerte que el gato salió volando hacia atrás. —¡Me dejó el pelo como nube! —dijo con los bigotes apuntando para todos lados. El auto, molesto por el ruido, murmuró: —Ay, qué escándalo… ¡yo quería dormir! —¡Dormir nada! —dijo el ogro—. ¡A trabajar! Los sapos empezaron a empujar por atrás, la vaca ayudó con la nariz, el gato tiraba de la manija de la puerta… pero el auto ni se movía. —Está haciendo capricho —dijo la vaca. El auto, ofendido, hizo sonar la bocina. Y el Sapo Pepe se rió tan fuerte que casi se cae de espalda: —¡Ja, ja, ja, ja, ja! De repente, el pato llegó corriendo. —¿Qué hacen? —Tratamos de que el auto trabaje. —¿Probaste preguntarle qué quiere? —dijo el pato, como si fuese profesor. El ogro suspiró y se agachó frente al paragolpes. —Bueno, auto… ¿qué querés? El auto respondió bajito: —Yo quiero que me laven… Todos se quedaron en silencio. Pepe murmuró: —¿Este auto está pidiendo un baño? —Sí —dijo Aldo—. Y yo pensé que yo era el complicado. Entonces todos se pusieron a trabajar. La vaca trajo agua, los sapos frotaban las ruedas, el gato dirigía la aspiradora que hacía fiiiiuuu y luego limpiaba los vidrios mientras cantaba. Cuando terminaron, el auto quedó brillante, como nuevo. El gato lo miró y dijo: —¡Epa! ¡Ahora parece un auto último modelo! El auto se acomodó, orgulloso. —Bueno… ahora sí podemos trabajar. El ogro giró la llave y el motor arrancó con tanta energía que los sapos salieron saltando: —¡Ah! ¡Ja, ja, ja, ja, ja! ¡Nos asustó! El auto no solo quiso trabajar, sino que se fue manejando solito hasta quedar al lado de las cajas. —Che —dijo la vaca—, al final el auto solo necesitaba cariño. —Y un baño —dijo el pato. —Y una aspiradora loca —agregó el gato, riéndose. Todos quedaron contentos, y el auto, feliz, tocó la bocina con agradecimiento: —Bim, bim, bim, bim, bim. Y colorín colorado, este cuento se ha acabado.

قصة المانجا: رحلة الدواء نحو الألم • المشهد الاول: ذكرى الماضي وبداية السؤال! تمر السنين وهاهو الان الصيدلاني خالد يقف بين ارفف الصيدلية، يسترجع الذكرى التي قادته لسير هذا الطريق. خالد وهو يفكر: ما زلت أتذكر ذلك السؤال الذي رافقني منذ طفولتي! ينتقل المشهد إلى فلاش باك لطفولة خالد.. في أحد الأيام كان خالد الصغير يجلس في المنزل وهو يمسك رأسه من الألم. - خالد (بصوت متعب): أمي، رأسي يؤلمني كثيرًا. تقترب والدته فاطمة منه وتعطيه دواء. - فاطمة (بلطف): خذ هذا الدواء يا خالد، وستشعر بالتحسن إن شاء الله. ينظر خالد الصغير إلى الدواء بفضول قبل أن يتناوله. - خالد (بتعجب): أمي، كيف يعرف الدواء مكان الألم؟ تبتسم فاطمة وهي تربت على رأسه. - فاطمة: الأطباء والصيادلة يعلمون هذه الأمور يا خالد. بعد مرور بعض الوقت يشعر خالد بتحسن. ينظر خالد مره أخرى إلى علبة الدواء، وعيناه مليئتان بالفضول. - خالد الصغير (يحدث نفسه): غريب! كيف عرف الدواء مكان الالم في رأسي؟ ينتقل المشهد للحظة دخول خالد إلى الكلية. • المشهد الثاني: أمام مبنى كلية الصيدلة يقف خالد وعمر أمام المبنى، وخالد يتأمل اللوحة المكتوبة امامه كلية الصيدلة خالد: يالله… تصدق؟ ما توقعت ولا ١٪؜ إني في يوم من الأيام بدخل كلية الصيدلة. عمر (يضحك): ترى أغلب اللي يدخلون الصيدلة يقولون نفس الجملة! لكن زي ما يقولون… الصيدلة تختار طلابها. يسكت خالد لحظة وكأنه تذكر شيئًا قديمًا. خالد (بابتسامة خفيفة): تدري يا عمر… في سؤال كان يلاحقني من الطفولة. عمر: وش السؤال؟ خالد: كنت دائما أتساءل… كيف الدواء يعرف مكان الألم؟ عمر (مستغرب): هاه؟ خالد: ماقد تساءلت كيف الدواء يعرف مكان الالم؟ وكيف يقدر يعالجه؟ يمكن اليوم ما عندي الجواب كامل… لكن أكيد هنا، بعرف الاجابة عمر (يبتسم ويضع يده على كتف خالد): أنا اخترت الصيدلة لأنها كانت رغبتي الأولى… لكن اليوم فعلاً اقتنعت إن الصيدلة هي اللي اختارتك يا خالد. والواضح إنك أخيرًا راح تلاقي جواب سؤالك. ينظر خالد مرة أخرى إلى مبنى الكلية بحماس. خالد: وهذه بداية الرحلة… • المشهد الثالث: في قاعة علم الأدوية (قفل ومفتاح) ينتقل المشهد للقاعة، الدكتور سعيد واقف قدام الشاشة وبصوت كله حماس شد كل الطلاب.. د. سعيد: يا دكاترة.. اليوم سنتحدث عن مبدأ أساسي في علم الأدوية، كيف يجد الدواء هدفه؟ (تظهر على الشاشة صورة قفل ومفتاح يركبون على بعض) د. سعيد: الدواء مو مجرد حبة نبلعها وخلاص، الموضوع أعمق! الدواء عبارة عن مفتاح ذكي يلف في جسمك كله، وما يفتح إلا قفل واحد.. وهو مكان الألم. خالد (بفضول واندهاش) : يعني بهذه البساطة.. القفل هو اللي ينادي المفتاح؟! د. سعيد : بالضبط! احسنت يا خالد.. الدواء يمر بكل الخلايا، بس المستقبل اللي في مكان الألم هو الوحيد اللي يطابق شكل هذا المفتاح ويرتبط به. التفت خالد لعمر وعيونه تلمع: أخيراً عرفت السر! خالد : تدري يا عمر؟ هذا هو الجواب اللي كنت أدوره من وأنا صغير! الحين عرفت كيف الدواء "يعرف مكان الالم" عمر: عشان كذا قلت لك الصيدلة هي اللي اختارتك.. فضولك وأنت طفل هو اللي جابك هنا اليوم المشهد الرابع: بعد التخرج (نفس التساؤل مع طفل) تمر السنين وها هو الصيدلاني خالد يقف بين ارفف صيدليته.. فجأة تدخل عليه أمرأة مع ابنها الصغير فهد وهو يمسك راسه بضيق شديد . الأم : دكتور خالد، ابني فهد رأسه يؤلمه كثيراً. د. خالد : خذ هذا الدواء يا فهد، وستشعر بالتحسن إن شاء الله. ينظر فهد للعلبة بفضول كبير، تماماً كما فعل خالد الصغير قديماً. فهد (بتعجب) : دكتور.. كيف يعرف الدواء مكان الألم؟ يخرج د.خالد ميدالية مفاتيحه بابتسامة ويوريها لفهد. د. خالد: شوف يا فهد.. الدواء مثل المفتاح ، يدور في جسمك كله، يمر على يدك يلقى الباب مقفل، يمر على بطنك يلقى الباب مقفل.. فهد : وإذا وصل لراسي؟ خالد: هناك بس يلقى القفل اللي يركب عليه! يفتحه، ويطرد الوجع برا. فهد: واو! يعني الدواء ذكي؟ د.خالد: الدواء ذكي.. واللي صنعه أذكى. يخرج فهد وهو يطالع العلبة بانبهار، وخالد يبتسم وهو يتذكر رحلته التي بدأت بسؤال.. وانتهت بجواب. • بدأت بفضول طفل.. واصبحت رسالة صيدلي.
"Pretend Hypnosis" — Chapter 1: The Spell That Never Worked CHARACTER PROFILES AYATO HIMEKAWA — Black hair (messy, slightly falling over forehead), striking blue eyes. Calm, composed expression. Wears standard school uniform: dark blazer, white shirt, loosened tie. Tall build. Usually has a subtle smirk. NATSUMI AMANO — Long pink hair (flowing past shoulders, often with a small side clip). Large yellow eyes, expressive and dramatic. Same school uniform but with a bow instead of tie. Energetic, over-the-top personality. Often has exaggerated manga expressions. PANEL-BY-PANEL BREAKDOWN 📌 PANEL 1 — ESTABLISHING SHOT Visual Prompt: Wide-angle establishing shot of a Japanese high school classroom interior. Late afternoon light streams through tall windows on the right side, casting long diagonal shadow bars across rows of desks. The classroom is mostly empty — school has just ended. Desks and chairs are slightly pushed around. A chalkboard at the front has half-erased notes. Two figures are visible: AYATO sits sideways on his desk near the window, bag already packed, staring outside with a bored expression. NATSUMI stands a few desks away, rummaging through her bag with her back turned to him. The mood is quiet, ordinary, everyday. Camera Angle: High wide-angle from the back-left corner of the classroom, slightly tilted downward. Full environmental context visible. Dialogue (Ayato — internal monologue bubble): "Another painfully ordinary Tuesday after school..." 📌 PANEL 2 — CLOSE-UP / CHARACTER INTRODUCTION Visual Prompt: Medium close-up, slightly low angle looking up at NATSUMI's face as she spins around dramatically, one finger pointed upward as if she just had a revelation. Her long pink hair fans out with the motion — motion lines radiate behind her. Her yellow eyes are wide and sparkling with mischief. She's holding a small pocket watch on a chain that she just pulled from her bag. The watch dangles and glints. Her expression is intensely theatrical — the classic manga "I have a plan!" face. Small sparkle effects surround the watch. Camera Angle: Low-angle medium shot, slightly tilted for dynamism. Subject centered, hair and chain as compositional elements. Dialogue (Natsumi — speech bubble, bold text): "Ayato-kun! Don't move. I'm going to try something."
A quiet residential street somewhere in Japan. Among small restaurants and convenience stores sits a tiny independent bookstore. The shop sign reads: レトロ漫画堂 A modest storefront filled with posters of old manga series and fading magazine covers from the 80s and 90s. A small display near the entrance advertises a new release. Inside the shop. On a display table sits a freshly stacked pile of manga. The cover reads: 「超銀河バスターZ 新装版①」 A reissue of a legendary 1980s sci-fi action manga. A hand slowly reaches into frame and picks up one of the volumes. The person holding the manga lifts it slightly… and inhales deeply. The unmistakable smell of a newly printed tankōbon. A quiet moment. Internal monologue: “There it is… The scent of fresh ink and paper.” The person flips the pages gently. Still no view of his face. The bookstore owner watches from the counter with an amused smile. Owner: “Looks like you’ve been waiting for that one.” ________________________________________

Moso is at a party, at night, there is a crowd of people cheering Show captions above some of the people in the crowd's head saying “Moso!”, “Look at her!” like in a Manga if someone was saying something as she is standing on a table, her mouth is a gap as if she is laughing or perhaps talking. (Moso is appeared further away along with the crowd, so sort of like were in the conner somewhere)

The neon sign above the trailer buzzed with the irritable hum of a dying insect. It read Ground support, thought the 'U' in ground was flickering out, Leaving the company to announce itself as Grond Support. It fit the aesthetic of the surrounding yard, which was a graveyard of rust excavators, Coils of orange conduit and piles of gravel that looked like forgotten burial mounds. Alex Barry stood at the Chain-link gate, the dust of three state lines coating his black cowboy boots. He was twenty-one, but the shadows under his eyes belonged to a man twice his age. He ran a hand through his short, cropped black hair, wincing as his shirt sleeve rode up. The ink on his forearm, a jagged tribal design he'd gotten in a basement parlor in New Mexico. Hidden again as he yanked the fabric down. He wasn't dealing today, He wasn't running packages. He was trying to vanish and the best place to disappear was beneath the earth. He pushed open the door to the office trailer. The air conditioning hit him like a physical blow, smelling of stale coffee and toner. “We aren’t buying whatever your selling, kid.” a voice rasped from behind a desk that looked more like a barricade of paperwork. Shane, the owner sat there like a toad on a lily pad. Squeezed into a polo shirt so tight and pristine white that it looked like it had been painted onto his soft, round torso. He didn't look up from his spreadsheet, his pen tapping a frantic rhythm. “I'm not selling,” Alex said his voice rough from days of silence. “I'm looking for work. Sign out front says you need laborers.” Shane finally looked up his eyes narrowing as they swept over Alex. He took in the dust, the nervous energy the way Alex stood with his weight on his back foot, ready to bolt. “I need laborers, Not liabilities. You got a rap sheet? You look like you got a rap sheet. I don't pay for insurance risks.” Alex clenched his jaw. “I work hard. I don't ask questions. That's my resume.” Shane waved his hand. “Get lost,” Returning to his papers. “Go peddle your drama somewhere else. This is a respectable establishment. Alex turned to leave, his hand gripping the doorknob. It was the same old story. The world saw the grim on him and assumed he was trash. He was about to step back out into the scorching heat when the light in the doorway was suddenly eclipsed. A mountain of a man blocked the exit. This was steel At forty-four, he was a wall of muscle and scar tissue, wearing biker boots that clunked heavily against the cheap linoleum. He had to duck to enter the trailer, his presence immediately sucking the oxygen out of the room. He smelled of diesel and wet earth. Steel looked down at Alex. It wasn't a glare, It was an inspection. He looked at Alex's face, then down to the dusty cowboy boots. “Nice boots,” Steel rumbled. His voice sounded like gravel tumbling inside a cement mixer. Alex didn't flinch “They walk fine.” Steel smirked, a terrifying expression that somehow reached his eyes, He looked past Alex to the man at the desk. “Hire him, Shane.” Shane sputtered, his face turning a shade of indignity pink. “Steel, look at him! Hes a stray. Probably steal the copper wire first chance he gets.” Steel steps closer to the desk. “Kid wears boots like that, he ain't running from work,” Steel said just as another figure steps inside. If steel was a mountain, Mathew was the sapling growing on the cliff edge. The Nineteen Year old squeezed past Steel. Carrying a hydraulic pump over his shoulder with effortless, wiry strength. Long blond hair flowed out from under a hardhat that had been modified with a wide brim, making it like a plastic Stetson

The walk up to the main house was short, a gravel path lined with solar lights that flickered weakly in the twilight. Steel’s property was an oasis of rural quiet, a stark contrast to the neon anxiety of the Starlight Motel. As they approached the house, the golden glow of the kitchen windows spilled out onto the porch. They wiped their boots on the mat; a ritual Steel performed with a surprising delicacy and entered. The kitchen was warm, smelling of rosemary, roasted beef, and yeast rolls. Stephanie was at the stove, stirring gray with the focus of a chemist. “He’s here,” Steel announced, Hanging his keys on a hook. Stephanie turned, wiping her hands on her white apron with a giant red A on it. “About time, Wash up Alex. Use the good soap, not that grease cutter stuff Gerald keeps by the sink.” It was then that Alex noticed they weren’t alone. Sitting at the round oak table, nursing a glass of iced tea, was a young woman. She looked up as he entered, and Alex felt his boots root to the floor. She was petite, perhaps a few inches shorter than him, with long, chestnut hair that fell in loose waves over shoulders. She wore oversized tortoise shell glasses that magnified eyes, the color of polished sapphire. She was wearing scrubs- navy blue with a stethoscope still draped casually around her neck like a scarf. “Alex,” Stephanie said, gesturing with a gravy ladle. “This is Devon. She works with me at the hospital. Devon, this is the stray Gerald brought home.” Alex could feel the heat creeping up his neck as he mumbled. “I’m not a stay, I’m an employee.” Devon smiled, and it changed her whole face, softening the intelligence in her eyes into something warmer. “Nice to meet you, Alex the Employee. Steph say’s you’re the one who saved your boss from a falling plate?”
