ALT [UNINVITED GUEST – Pizza Tower Comic – Part 6]
[Cut to the next workday. Peppino trudges across the checkerboard tile of his pizzeria, holding the phone receiver limply and pressing his other hand against his face. He’s visibly exhausted, eyes baggy and bloodshot, as the sleep deprivation makes his vision wobble and tilt. The clock on the wall has its hands spinning and blurred between multiple positions, representing Peppino’s sense of time slipping.]
ALT [Peppino is practically sleepwalking through his workday. Several panels are shown that partially melt into each other-- Peppino shakily handling a pizza on his pizza peel, followed by money exchanging hands between Peppino and a customer. The customer asks a question, the words somewhat blurry.]
CUSTOMER: Are you feeling alright, sir?
PEPPINO: It’s… nothing. Just had a bad night.
[Panels continue to bleed together, showing Peppino pouring himself a mug of coffee, a shot of the phone ringing, and Peppino fidgeting by rapidly finger-drumming the countertop over and over.]
