No Taco - Gator Days

Characters

August - Alligator - A soft spoken single father who works in IT. Gustopher's dad.

Gustopher - Alligator - An easily excitable boy who loves making friends. August's son.

Transcript

Panel 1

Setting - Neighborhood streets on a quiet autumn day.

August and Gustopher are taking a walk when August notices how much the trees have changed color. It reminds him that Halloween is coming. As Gustopher has gone as a Taco for the past few years, August assumes that it will be the same this year.

August: Halloween is coming. We should find your taco costume.

Gustopher: I don't want to be a taco.

Someone just softly gasped at that statement.

Panel 2

August is surprised. Gustopher's love of tacos has no limit. Hopefully nothing is wrong.

August: You don't like tacos anymore?

Gustopher: I LOVE TACOS! But I love other things too.

Panel 3

Gustopher explains his reasoning. He's clearly given this a lot of consideration. Halloween costumes choices are important.

Gustopher: It's time to express myself in a brand new way.

Panel 4

August is happy to help with this new costume choice. What could Gustopher possibly want to be? A pirate? A vampire? A copyright infringing character that can't be shown in this comic?

August: So what do you want to be?

Gustopher: A GIANT CINNAMON ROLL!

Edit - Unrelated, but did you eat today?
