Caption: Figure 4.

Eight snapshots of the 3D MHD simulated velocity field within a JWST/NIRSpec IFU FOV, analogous to panel (b) of Figure 2, and approximately evenly spaced in time. All panels are centered on the black hole position with the same surface density threshold in panel (b) of Figure 2. The size and orientation of the CND vary with time, but the CND remains present and is typically connected to a larger-scale feeding filament.
