Art style: 2D Hand-drawn. MASTER PROMPT — STRICT CHARACTER CONSISTENCY. Use the approved character references as the absolute source of truth. ARTEM must remain EXACTLY the same approved Artem from all previous scenes: identical face, facial proportions, hairstyle, age, body proportions and visual identity. IRINA BELOVA must remain EXACTLY the same approved mother character reference. Do NOT redesign her face, hairstyle, age, body proportions or clothing style. KSYUSHA must remain EXACTLY the same approved younger sister character reference. Maintain the exact same 2D animated visual style, character design language, linework, proportions, lighting logic and level of detail established in all previous approved scenes. SCENE 13: Later that same evening. Artem returns home after his first construction shift. He enters the family's modest Moscow apartment still wearing EXACTLY the same dusty work clothes from scenes 6–12: dark blue work jacket with reflective stripes, gray hoodie underneath, dark work trousers and work shoes. His face and clothes still have natural traces of construction dust. He is physically exhausted. The apartment must feel modest, warm, lived-in and realistic — the SAME family home established earlier in the episode. Irina is at home. Ksyusha is also present. The emotional contrast is important: outside was a cold, exhausting construction shift; inside is a small but warm family home. Artem does NOT behave like a hero returning from a great achievement. He simply came home after a very difficult first day of physical work. Irina immediately notices how exhausted and dirty he is. She looks at him with quiet concern. Artem tries to act as if everything is normal. Ksyusha looks at her brother with curiosity. No melodrama. No exaggerated emotions. No celebration. SHOT STRUCTURE — MAXIMUM 3 PANELS: Panel 1: Medium-wide shot from inside the apartment hallway. Artem has just entered through the front door with his backpack. He looks exhausted and dusty after the construction shift. Irina sees him from inside the apartment. Warm home lighting contrasts with the cooler hallway. Panel 2: Medium shot of Irina looking at Artem. Her expression shows quiet maternal concern as she notices his dirty face and work clothes. Artem gives a restrained expression suggesting: “Everything is fine.” No exaggerated smile. Panel 3: Medium family shot. Artem is now inside the apartment. Ksyusha is nearby and looks at her tired older brother. Irina remains close. Artem removes his backpack or work jacket naturally. The atmosphere is quiet, intimate and realistic. IMPORTANT CHARACTER CONTINUITY: ARTEM: same approved face, same brown hairstyle, same proportions, same dusty construction clothes from the previous scene, same backpack, same age and appearance. IRINA: ONLY the approved Irina Belova character. Do NOT create a new mother. Do NOT make her younger or older. Do NOT change her hairstyle or facial structure. KSYUSHA: ONLY the approved Ksyusha character. Do NOT create a different girl. Preserve her approved age, face, hairstyle and proportions. IMPORTANT: Maximum 3 panels. No six-panel collage. No duplicated characters. No new family members. No Viktor. No Sergey. No construction workers. No character redesign. No face changes. No hairstyle changes. No anatomy errors. Exactly five fingers per visible hand. No distorted hands. No floating objects. No impossible poses. No dramatic injuries. No blood. No speech bubbles. No captions. No text. Preserve realistic human anatomy, physical interaction, scale, perspective and continuity. The scene must feel like a DIRECT continuation of Scene 12. Artem must still visibly look like a man who has just returned from the SAME first construction shift. Suitable for later image-to-video animation. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: Classic 2D hand-drawn animation, clean expressive outlines, simplified shapes, soft cel shading, illustrated backgrounds, traditional animated-film aesthetic.
