The Little Boy's Saga

[FairBlueLove]

Short stories like that - I like to visualize them as comics strips - which go directly to the heart. We need more of them. Thank you BLueRibbbon!

Incidentally, a couple of weeks before you started this thread I tried to create storyboards for comics strips with time progressions as the one you posted, using local LLMs. I was not 100% satisfied, because they were not deep/incisive enough. But one of the final messages they ended with captured my attention, and became my present signature.

Spoiler!

I wake up early trembling with fear,
Take a look around my home,
Will it be the final time?

I put on my suit,
Meticulously pressed,
Ready for the showdown.

Take a taxi to court,
Arrive with my head bowed,
But I have no reason to be ashamed.

Cameras flash as riffraff jeer,
Screaming like I'm a killer,
I should slit their fucking throats!

The inevitable conclusion of the hunt,
To be foisted upon me by a pompous cunt,
For a country that should be burned to the ground.

All over a few nudist vids... and you're [character is] somehow worse than a killer in their eyes. Met with an appropriate response fueled by anger and fear, a threat thrown back.

Thanks for another entry!
