This page's 6-panel-grid layout is kinda boring, TBH, but was (IIRC) used mainly to set up the repeating panel compositions of panels 3 and 6.
Panel 2: Keep in mind the ISP's reference to "cubicle security" not being the "gentle sort," as an element in tomorrow's page calls back to this line of dialogue. (The flaws of the daily webcomic format strike again, folks!)
Panel 6: What are those (off-panel) things, might you ask? Well, let's find out tomorrow! Note also that the next page makes an important statement about the nature of this setting, though Emp won't catch the full implication of what she's seeing.
Today’s Patreon update: In an attempt to scratch out more worktime to
complete the long-gestating Empowered vol. 12, I've switched over
to a Monday/ Wednesday/ Friday Patreon posting schedule that won't feature the
fixed content format I previously used. So, who knows what today's post
might feature? Could be Life Drawing or Distressed Damsels
content (both of which are featured at least three times per month), or
something in the Work Stages, Vintage Con Sketches or Design
departments, or possibly something entirely new. Golly!
