Small emergencies manga ink poster

{
  "style_name": "Small Emergencies",
  "style_slug": "manga-ink-three-panel-shift-poster",
  "canvas": "9:16 tall poster, aged cream paper, heavy print grain, distressed edges and corners",
  "color": {
    "ink": "near-black line work #1A1714",
    "paper": "cream #EFE3CE",
    "fills": [
      "hot pink #E85D8A",
      "sky cyan #6FC3D6",
      "signal yellow #E8B33A",
      "copper orange #D96B2E"
    ],
    "rule": "flat, slightly misregistered print fills; pink must take ONE impossible role per poster — the water spray, the dawn sky, the ghosted second self"
  },
  "illustration": {
    "technique": "dense seinen-manga inking — crosshatch shading, speed lines, spray dots, screentone patches — over flat poster color",
    "panels": "three stacked panels separated by TILTED diagonal gutters with thin paper-colored gaps",
    "panel_grammar": {
      "instrument": "extreme close-up of a hand on the job's instrument — tuning dial, lantern striker, pressure gauge, kitchen timer — markings readable",
      "action": "the same worker full-body at the peak of a small crisis, strong diagonal pose, environment drawn in full detail",
      "face": "tight portrait of the same character — effort, relief or joy; optionally a ghosted second emotion behind them in one flat color"
    },
    "order_rule": "the three beats may shuffle order, but all three must appear, and it is the same character in every panel",
    "diegetic_text": "all in-scene words belong to the world — tape labels, shop signs, flour bags, buoy numbers, warning plates"
  },
  "typography": {
    "masthead": "two words, TWO typefaces: word one in massive distressed slab caps in cream; word two in ornate circus tuscan, set on or filled with a color block",
    "info_bar": "one yellow bar in bold black caps at the foot: place or season, slash, log or batch number",
    "scatter": "checkerboard patches, lightning bolts, starbursts, tiny waveforms — three or four per poster, never more"
  },
  "design_rules": [
    "the crisis must be genuinely minor — a relay to run, a lamp to light, a pipe to fix, dough to catch; the inking treats it as life or death",
    "the face panel pays off the action panel — same shift, seconds apart",
    "panels tilt; the masthead never does",
    "no gradients in the fills; depth comes from line density, not tone"
  ],
  "swap_variables": {
    "job": "dawn radio courier / pier storm-watch keeper / irrigation mechanic / night baker",
    "crisis": "carry the signal across rooftops / light the storm lantern in rain / burst pipe in dry season / dough over-rising at 3am",
    "instrument": "tuning dial / lantern + striker / gauge + pipe wrench / timer + copper bowl",
    "masthead": "STATIC RUN / TIDELIGHT / BLOOM FIX / MOON RISE",
    "info_bar": "FREQUENCY 88 · DAWN RELAY / PIER NINE · STORM WATCH / DRY SEASON · REPAIR LOG 04 / BATCH 03 · OPEN TILL DAWN",
    "diegetic_labels": "88 DAWN RELAY tape / buoy No.9 / WATER PRESSURE dial / ALL NIGHT BAKERY sign + POWER FLICKER plate"
