Brother: Hello.

Me: [enters] Right, I’ve got a concept. This is for the blog.

Brother: [stares, blinks]

Me: It’s a 4-panel thing that I’d like you to draw. First panel is me browsing the Internet. Second panel shows the website I’m viewing: that of a popular anime blogger who shall remain nameless. The third is the same shot of me from the first panel, except I’m looking annoyed and there are little onomatopoeia-type words around me spelling “envy, envy”. The fourth panel shows me bursting in, saying “Right, we’re starting a blog!”.

Brother: [stares]

Me: …On you. Bursting in on you. Just to clarify, I won’t be paying you anything for this if you choose do it. It’s just a concept that I… that I think that you could do for the blog. I mean, you’re the one who can draw. It’d be good.

Brother: [pause]

Me: [pause]

Brother: Or we could just post this conversation.

Me: [thinks] …We could. [exits]
