     Malcom groaned with disappointment and worry. He opened the door. His dad wasn’t in the living room. Thank god. He must be in the bathroom. He went into his room and set his backpack down next to his bed. He pulled out his cell phone.
     He opened an app called “SpontCulture”, a social media app centred around different communities for different interests, hobbies, and identifications. Malcolm is part of the Planetary fandom. The Planetary fandom is a community of which people can express themselves through their own planets. They pick the inhabitants, the plants, and every other aspect of the planet. It doesn’t have to have real aspects either. The plants could be chainsaws or the grass could be hot black tar. Many members of the furry fandom are also in the planetary fandom, too.
     He opens the community, “Planetary”. He smiles when he sees who is online. His best friend, Dan, is a furry, but also a planetary. His fursona, which is also his online avatar, is Tibu. A black and white husky. Very creative, Dan.
     Malcolm opens his dm with Dan;

Dan - Hey buddy

Hi - Malcolm

How was your day?

Shit. Like usual

Oh

Are you surprised or disappointed?

Yes

     Malcolm scoffs, smiling and shaking his head.

Wanna know what happened?

     Then they sent each other a text at the same time.

The pipes, the pipes are calling

The pips, the peips, are calling

What are pips and peips?

Mal, stop it. I type too fats

Too fats?

fafafats

Come on

Stop

I can’t tell if you’re serious since we’re texting

I’m serious

     He wasn’t. On the other side of the phone, he was smiling and laughing, even when he jokingly said “I’m serious”. This made the situation awkward for Malcolm.

Oh… sorry

It’s fine

Wyd

:3

Well I’m bored :D

:3

Fun fact, my dad doesn't read, yet he thinks that I don’t either unless I’m grounded or the why fie is out

Bye fie

     Malcolm scoffs, then exits the dm, then puts down his phone, smiling. He’s glad at least he’s got one friend that gets him.
     Unexpectedly, Malcolm gasps in shock from a sound outside his bedroom.

  …It’s the buzzing sound of the lock.
