Answer Inside!
Hooray! An octahedron from some other angles! I don't know why it's taken me until now to realize that Otto and Rondo are the easiest characters to reposition out of all the 'Topes. Especially considering that I've made alternate rotations of both Ike and Dido at one point or another, but never--at least not as far as I recall--have I spun Otto before. At least, not on that axis. But now we have an octahedron looking questioningly upward at something, and an octahedron falling hilariously into something! Good.
I know, I know! More action lines. The comic wants them, and so badly! But I'm not putting them in. Also the pacing is all wonky between panels four and five, like there's either an extra-long pause there or the doors just WHUNK! closed superfast. Thanks, though, to the residents of Peabody Hall for putting signs in stupid places so many times. Otherwise that sign on the door would have taken me a lot longer to work out. I don't really know where the rest of the sign goes when the doors open like that, but I like that it's spaced accurately.
So, y'know. Plots continue, and all that. It seems like this flipping back and forth between the Zombie Universe plot and the Elevator of Death plot is working out pretty well. For me, anyway. Helps me keep my attention distributed, so I don't realize I'm actually focused. If I ever catch on to that little detail, the whole thing'll fall apart.
