TITLE SECTION)

(White text over blood drippers sets up our fabulous late update bonus comic.)

TEXT: DURING NANOWRIMO, THE COMIC IS MOSTLY OUT OF COMMISSION, SO, LIKE, HOW'S IT GOIN', Y'ALL?
    KELLY HAS BEEN WRITING 5000+ WORDS A DAY, AND AND CHRISTOPHER HAS BEEN DONATING PLASMA...

1.)

   (The comic thus far is in black and white, save hints of red. Christopher
looks chipper and gives us two thumbs up. There's tubes full of red nearby.)

CHRISTOPHER: I earn money and help the ill with my life-saving donation!

2.)

  (We're inside a plasma donation clinic and while Christopher is draining
  in the background, Vitus is drinking red from a tube in the foreground.)

BIG WHITE TEXT: MEANWHILE...

3.)

(Vitus has noticed you from his side of the fourth wall. He removes the tube from his mouth to speak, splashing blood drops.)

VITUS:  OH HAI   Does this require an explanation?

4.)

(Vitus dons mirrored sunglasses to make a point.)

VITUS: OK then ...

5.)

(Vitus begins crooning, music notes in the air, lips pursed.)

VITUS: I was feelin' ... so sick

6.)

(Now Vitus has a microphone out of nowhere, continuing to rock.)

VITUS: I asked my family doctor just "What the frick?"

7.)

(Vitus has lost the microphone but is now in the company of a sexy doctor & nurse combo, played by Fran & Demy.)

VITUS: I said "Doctor"

FRANCESCA: Doctah!

VITUS: Doctor De-my!

FRANCESCA: Doctah!

VITUS: Can you tell me, what's ailin' me?

8.)

(Vitus is tossing the song to Dr. Demy, while yeah yeah yeahs erupt from the panels. Fran exultantly sings and shows off blood tubes
 a-squirtin', while Christopher seems paralyzed in the cheerful position from the first panel of the comic, dopey grin and thumbs up.)

VITUS: And he said...

WHOEVER:   YEAH YEAH YEAH, YEAH-YEAH   YEAH YEAH YEAH, YEAH-YEAH!

DEMETRI:   See,   All you really need...   GOOD BLOOD!

DEMETRI & FRANCESCA: GOOD BLOOD!

9.)

(All have joined together singing exultantly, with Demy & Fran on backup.)

VITUS:  ALL I NEED IS BLOOD

DEMETRI & FRANCESCA: GOOD BLOOD!

10.)

(Paralyzed Christopher again, a slightly cooler grey? His eyes sparkle.)

11.)

 (Music video scene change! The three are now in swim wear, Fran & Demy up to their waists in a
swimming pool of blood. Vitus is jumping backwards off a springboard, the others welcoming him.)

VITUS:  GIMME THAT GOOD GOOD BLOOD

DEMETRI & FRANCESCA: GOOD BLOOD!

12.)

(Paralyzed Christopher, shading cyanotic as a tear escapes his eye.)

13.)

(The pool party continues, more vampires diving in the background, pool toys appearing, Demy lofting Fran out of the blood.)

VITUS:  GOOD GOOD BLOOD IN ME

14.)

(Paralyzed Christopher looking hollowed out, even more blue, and deranged.)

15.)

(Demetri floats in the void between panels, costume changed into a hep '8-s dude playing a keyboard, with sheet music in the air behind him.)

WHITE TEXT: KEYBOARD SOLO!

16.)

(Christopher's dead dry eye is open, skin drawn and wrinkled around it.)

17.)

(Things are back to normal in the lab, Vitus suckin' a tube again, chatting with Demy.
  Drained dead Christopher lays nearby drawing flies, a paling tube still in his arm.)

VITUS: This stuff is ethically sourced, right?

DEMETRI: But of course.

BOTTOM TEXT)
