Tintin and the Mimes' Rights

Pulpo•2025-02-21

Tintin stands on a bustling Parisian street. In the background, several mimes with painted white faces, striped shirts, and berets perform silently.
Tintin: Look at them! They bring so much joy to the streets.
Tin Tin watches a mime performing an invisible wall act. The mime, a middle-aged man with a tall, lanky build, wears classic mime attire and gestures dramatically. Passersby watch with mild amusement.
Tintin: I hope one day mimes will be as respected as any artist in France.
Tintin sits on a bench, contemplating. A mime woman, petite and lively, approaches with an invisible bouquet of flowers, offering it to her with a smile. The busy street continues in the background.
Mime Woman: ...
Tintin: Thank you, kind mime! You deserve recognition.
Tintin stands up, a determined look on her face, as she imagines a future where mimes are celebrated. A mime in the background is pretending to be trapped in an invisible box.
Tintin: One day, you'll have the rights and respect you deserve!
