Surreal Noir Style Hamster Manga Page

Prompt

Goal: Create a monochrome Japanese manga page with an accidental surreal-comedy tone: an elegant, melancholy young man in a late-night private study has a dramatic conversation with a cute hamster as if it were a serious noir mystery scene. Canvas: Vertical manga page, black-and-white with subtle cool blue-gray tinting in the man's hair and eyes, high-resolution screentone shading, crisp black gutters, printed manga texture. Use exactly 8 panels arranged in a dense page layout. Layout: Panel 1 is a full-width cinematic establishing shot at the top, showing a traditional Japanese-style study at midnight with shoji window grids, rainy dark garden visible outside, hydrangeas, stacked books and drawers, a glowing rectangular lantern, and the man seated at a desk smoking. Panel 2 is a left medium close-up of a hamster peeking over a desk edge. Panel 3 is a right close-up of the man's face, holding a smoking pipe or long cigarette holder near his lips. Panel 4 is a left medium shot of the man reclining with the hamster in his hand while smoke curls upward. Panel 5 is a narrow central hamster reaction panel. Panel 6 is a right close-up of the man gently holding the hamster near his face. Panel 7 is a full-width extreme close-up of the man's eyes and hair, separated by a thin horizontal gutter. Panel 8 is a full-width dramatic final panel with a black background, floating white petals, butterflies, smoke wisps, and the man smiling behind an open folding fan. Subject details: The main character is {argument name="character name" default="an elegant mysterious young man"}, early twenties, androgynous bishonen features, pale skin, long tousled {argument name="hair color" default="dark blue-black"} hair falling over one eye, sharp red-gray eyes, long dangling earrings, layered dark kimono or formal robe, refined hands, calm teasing expression. The hamster is {argument name="hamster description" default="a tiny round gray-and-white hamster with glossy black eyes, small paws, and a confused innocent expression"}. Emphasize the absurd contrast between ultra-serious romantic manga framing and the hamster's cute presence. Text content: Add vertical Japanese manga narration and speech bubbles throughout, using this exact overall dialogue/narration set where it fits: {argument name="Japanese dialogue" default="深夜の私設書庫にて。 / こんな時間まで付き合ってしまったね。 / おや、君はまだ起きていたのかい？ / ふふ、その驚いた顔も可愛いねぇ。 / き、君のせいじゃないのか!? / 君のせい、というわけでもないよ？ / ほら、こうして… / けれど、君がいてくれると夜更けも退屈しない。 / ……さて、そろそろ本題に入ろうか。 / 今夜の議題は、君の処遇だよ。 / 夜は、まだ始まったばかり。"}. Include small handwritten sound effects near the hamster and smoke, such as tiny squeaks and rustling marks, but keep them secondary. Visual style: Detailed shojo-seinen hybrid manga illustration, elegant linework, glossy hair rendering, dramatic close-ups, cinematic lighting from the lantern and moonlit windows, fine screentones, high contrast black backgrounds, delicate smoke trails, petals and butterflies in the final panel. The mood should feel ornate, mysterious, and unintentionally funny. Constraints: Use exactly 8 panels, exactly one human character, exactly one hamster, one folding fan in the final panel, one glowing lantern in the study, multiple speech bubbles but no modern UI elements, no color except subtle blue-gray tint and faint red eyes, no watermark.
