Art style: Modern 2D Webcomic.
A muted, drab ledge on the third staircase step, conveying passage of time. A stickman slumps with bored, deflated posture beside a long chain that is only marginally shorter, a faded calendar with many crossed-off days behind him. Medium eye-level shot, slightly wide with heavy negative space to emphasize monotony. Flat, dim, grayish overhead lighting with no warmth. Deflated, honest, weary mood. Dominant palette of dull gray, washed-out beige, and faded steel blue.
