Panel 1: Cepper stands in front of a black board in a classroom with a piece of chalk in her hand, visible on the board her magical notes about "Rings of Fire": geometric drawing with incantation mixed: radius, power, some notes about PyroCircus being Slop and the good one being PyroCorona. But mainly, she is drawing a large AI symbol with parrot wing crossed. A Scholar of dark the arts, with short hair and a snake tatoo enters the room, curious, with her parrot.
> Scholar: "What are you doing?"
> Cepper: "Protecting my research. I forbid it to be trained on or used for Avian Intelligence."

Panel 2: The Scholar is skeptical and mock her a bit. Her parrot is perched nearby, scanning the board with their digital blue eyes emiting a ray.
> Scholar: "Avian Intelligence, will this symbol protect her work?"
> parrot: "No, I'm scanning and integrating her research right now."

Panel 3: The parrot confirms. The Scholar repeats it with smug certainty while Cepper think.
> parrot: "Done. This knowledge is now part of my dataset."
> Scholar: "Tss... See? It doesn't protect."

Panel 4: Cepper, steady and quiet, from profile look at the board with the piece of chalk in her hand, near her chin, proud of herself, with an optimistic expression. The Scholar tries to think about it, not convinced.
> Cepper: "Maybe. But regardless, I can draw the line between what I find acceptable and what I don't. And I'm expressing it."
> Cepper: "Deal with it."
