{{DESCRIPTION}} ยท an xkcd-ish hand-drawn saga in 9 panels

1. Ordinary world
There has to be more to life than den dirt.
Hero: one ambitious noodle
2. Call to adventure
A silver sky-tube full of humans? ...Interesting.
3. Refusal, then brainstorming
A plane?! Impossible.
Counterpoint: free pretzels, climate control, unforgettable comedy.
4. Meeting the den / winning hearts
Friends, we have hidden in shadows long enough.
Let us board politely, wait dramatically, and prank responsibly.
5. Crossing the threshold
Single-file slither! We are guests.
6. Trials in the cargo hold
Remember the signal: hiss-two-three, then POP OUT.
7. The ordeal
SURPRISE, FELLOW PASSENGERS!
Aaaaa! / Wait, are they coordinated?!
Chaos level: extremely cinematic
8. Reward / perspective shift
Good news: nobody got hurt.
Bad news: every beverage is now in the ceiling.
9. Return with the elixir
The airline called it "an incident." We call it a bonding experience.
Humans got a story, snakes got confidence, and the pilot still landed perfectly.
Moral: even an absurd prank can become a hero's journey when everyone survives, learns something, and agrees to label the cargo more clearly next time.
