The Imaginary Thief of Sleep is back! I decided to give my OC Aleksi some of my darker, more sulking features. One of those is my sleep disorder; its really to demonstrate how little we know about sleep science, and to show how it can really break a person down. When we first meet Aleksi in the story he'll be just barely coping with it, and lost most of his circle of friends since they all think it's just a cry for attention. So it's really just him, a 2-in-1 laptop since organic chemistry is hard to explain with words, and that ethereal blob haunting him. He'll hear alot of voices and hallucinate from time to time, making some of his panels kinda eerie. Natalya meets him by chance and she helps him get paste his troubled time, much like how she had Liiza's family to adjust to normal life. Those bricks in the background are totally me cheating by using digital black magic to save time; I only added the quick shade work to add a bit of depth. Overall fairly happy with how it turned out!
