Christmas Eid (Coming of Age Fiction) Snippet
From Chapter 5 - The Teenage Dilemma
HARUN:
You need to change your username—
Abdi-Hakeem flops front first on Harun’s bed, groaning.
ABDI-HAKEEM, muffled by the comforter:
I’m. Not. Changing. My. Name.
HARUN:
—to LilMoShmoney.
ABDI-HAKEEM, turning on his side:
I’ll die first.
HARUN:
Isn’t your death exactly what we’re trying to avoid?
ABDI-HAKEEM:
That’s not an option. I’m not changing it.
HARUN:
Think of it as exchanging part of your username. Replace the ‘big’ with ‘lil’. You can’t drop ‘MoShmoney’ completely because then your career would be dead. But not changing it will mean that you might end up literally dead. Ergo, my solution, Demote yourself. You’ll come off smart enough to avoid being a first-degree murder victim.
ABDI-HAKEEM, flatly:
A) Never say ‘ergo’ again. B) Next idea. Quickly.
Harun takes a break from his pacing to slump down in his desk chair. He fiddles with one of his many figurines.
HARUN:
Think about how your death will affect the family. I can’t be a Muslim minority related to the delinquent casualty in a Florida Man headline. I’ll never make it in politics! Wait… Now that I think about it, that might make for a good sob story. If I made you the ‘call to action’ in my ‘hero’s journey’, I could milk your death all the way to State…
Abdi-Hakeem sits up and whips a pillow at his cousin. Harun catches it with his face.

I love Spaceboy yet I've never really drawn him this far.
Here a WIP of one of a few pieces I'm making. I find surprising how "casual" he looks without his shoulder pads and cape.
Made that very comment on it while showing it to a friend and here's what happened :
Thankfully he won't be caught changing name on a whim ever again.

||So I might do funny chats between the characters or serious chats sometimes||
*Somewhere in the present time*
Vorheim: "Those guys are still following me... aren't they?"
*The vampires in the back looking away*
The Vampires: "Uh... no...?"
Vorheim: *Sigh*
