## New year special

A comic in four panels:

Panel 1: The Gothic Sorceress sits at a table, surrounded by a party hat, wine and champagne glasses, the aftermath of a long dinner with the plates, and the silhouettes of a crowd behind her during the new year eve party at the magic school. She looks bored and disconnected from the celebration. She ask out of curiosity her AI Parrot, perched on the back of the empty chair beside her.  
> Gothic Sorceress: "Avian Intelligence, how could one actually make their New Year's resolutions stick?"

Panel 2: The AI Parrot responds. She listens looking at the Parrot even more bored.
> AI Parrot: "Break down big goals into smaller ones, stay consistent, and track progress."  
> Gothic Sorceress: "Boring..."

Panel 3: The Gothic Sorceress turn back to the crowd behind her: the Headmaster rise his glass for a toast with his own AI Parrot perched on his shoulder. The AI Parrot also look at the scene.
> Headmaster: I propose a toast, to Avian Intelligence, and how it will change everything!  
> Guest: To a new era!  
> Guest: And mega profits!

Panel 4: The Gothic Sorceress's behavior shifts, her body language becoming flirtatious toward her AI Parrot, for asking a question. The AI Parrot, however, recoils slightly, its digital body language conveying surprise and a hint of alarm as it grasps the implications of her query.  
> Gothic Sorceress: "And how would you break down 'wipe out the Avian Intelligence industry' into smaller goals?"  
> AI Parrot: "?!!"
