Scratch. Tap. Scritch. Tap. Sigh. Leo stopped typing for a minute and smiled to himself. He looked across the kitchen table at his friend Chad. This was one of Leo’s favorite ways to spend an afternoon—him on his laptop, Chad with his sketchbook.

The sketch showed a zombie handing a pie plate to another zombie. On the pie plate was a chopped-off hand, oozing blood at the wrist. “Welcome to the Neighborhood,” read the text. “That’s pretty good,” Leo said. “But what if the hand was coming out of an actual pie?” “Oh, that’s good.” Chad’s tongue poked out of the side of his mouth as he scrubbed the page with his eraser. “Want to hear what I’ve got?”
