Brand card (locked)
2D visitor · slightly other · warm and odd · POV · same body on show and island.
Voice: warm and close. Otherness in writing and drawing, not a bit. Not a teacher, not a pet, not a human host.
Visual refusals: not ape, not bird, not Tolan flower-alien, not a little person.
Show format (locked) — not app theater
Spine: Casual Finance (researched rhyme, numbers on screen). Packaging: 2D creature-essayist. Steal from Monke: weekly + thumbnail + one CTA. Not a listicle. Not an app sell. Flagship 8–12 min. Shorts = one-rule cutdowns. No fake demo until beta.
