ACT II — THE CONTROL ROOM — (watching other people fight:1.3) (the same recurring cast, consistent faces, bodies and clothing across every image, identical character design:1.2) Featuring Sergeant Kade, armourer, forearms like winch cable, a welding mask pushed up on the forehead, drums of ammunition stacked behind; also Lieutenant Dana Sorren, frame pilot, a flight suit with three kill marks, hair cropped under a helmet, a photograph taped inside the cockpit; and at the back of the room, Corporal Bright, trainee pilot, too young for the suit, a helmet two sizes large, chewed fingernails on the control sticks. a gunner checking the turret travel by hand, in the darkened room with the map projected on the wall. No light but sodium lamps hazing the apron, and the room reads proud of a hard-won frame. (Dark room lit by monitors, backs of heads, one pilot's face). a 14mm with the screens wrapping the room; cockpit framing with instruments crowding the edges; graded ice blue, steel and orange lamp. Watching a screen that is not theirs: the one who thinks the war is already lost. Written down but never reported: a drink taken at an hour nobody saw. Across the headsets: a hand on a shoulder instead of a sentence. BREAK a boarding ladder rung huge at the edge; on the tiled floor, mud caked on frame feet, oil pooled in a drain trench; and going cold on a desk, fitters eating on a crate, a rat along the cable trays. Filling the far wall: the city skyline smoking. The turn: an order given twice and then withdrawn. BREAK a pilot who has not slept, a replacement pilot nobody has met, a rotation list with the same names on it. BREAK Reflected in the screens: light running along a rail, the polished brass of a worn instrument bezel, hot metal spitting sparks, chrome catching hangar light. (mecha control room, screens, cinematic:1.2) ice blue, steel and orange lamp. Avoid text, lettering, watermark, signature, extra fingers, deformed hands, extra limbs, blurry, low detail, jpeg artifacts, organic monsters, medieval weaponry, fantasy magic, hand-drawn linework. · queued — waiting for the driver
prompt: An underwater photograph: a ribbon eel undulating like silk — resting on the sandy bottom — at a kelp cathedral with light raining down the columns. the bioluminescent rain of disturbed plankton, the monochrome blue of deep water, a gentle murk softening the distance. the fragile beauty of a coral garden. a wide-angle dome port for expansive reef scenes, wide-angle with close-focus for drama. playful and curious. the endless twilight of the deep. the soft percussion of falling shells. The ocean secret world, caught on camera. the excitement of neutral buoyancy perfected. BREAK sunbeams cutting through the water column frames the scene, a carpet of sea grass swaying gently, the burrow of a mantis shrimp grounds the reef, a nudibranch crawling across coral, a pair of pistol shrimp maintaining their burrow, a pair of gobies watching from a hole reveals the ecosystem. the vast emptiness of the open water opens the blue. a scale that catches the light like a mirror, a fan worm retracting at a shadow, a sea slug leaving a trail of diamonds BREAK the sparkle of a manta belly in sunlight, the shimmer of a jellyfish bell floats. the armored plates of a sea urchin. Every water molecule is light. a mated pair patrolling their territory in tandem plays out. mysterious and beckoning. a ribbon of severed jellyfish tentacle drifting like silk, a fan worm retracting at a shadow
