Past me: "Ha! Four panels! This will be simple!"

More recent past me: "Actually, in addition to implying it's the past, I need to establish location, and I've just realized it makes sense for it to be more public than Edward's office if someone's going to overhear them, so..."

"I have to figure out a relatively public work location that feels momentarily private to Edward and Lavender, and establish it well enough visually for readers to fill in their own blanks on where they are, and what they could be doing there."

"And THEN I have to spend WAY too much time thinking about what should be in the hallway before remembering that the location is all about secrecy, and minimalism ACTUALLY makes sense."

A day will come when I don't underestimate a page because it's fewer than six panels long, but the day I made this was not that day.
