This is a scene from the book Lord of the Flies, Chapter 8, featuring Jack Merridew (in chibi form). Although he's the main antagonist I felt a bit sorry for him. The figures are cut from paper and the background is a wallpaper on my computer monitor.

Here's a citation from the book:

Chapter 8: Gift for the darkness

Jack turned, red in the face, his chin sunk back. He glowered up under his eyebrows.
"All right then," he said in tones of deep meaning, and menace, "all right."
He held the conch against his chest with one hand and stabbed the air with his index finger.
"Who thinks Ralph oughtn't to be chief?"
He looked expectantly at the boys ranged rough, who had frozen. Under the palms there was deadly silence.
"Hands up," said Jack strongly, "whoever wants Ralph not to be chief?"
The silence continued, breathless and heavy and full of shame. Slowly the red drained from Jack's cheeks, then came back with a painful rush. He licked his lips and turned his head at an angle, so that his gaze avoided the embrarrassment of linking with another's eye.
"How many think---"
His voice tailed off. The hands that held the conch shook. He cleared his throat, and spoke loudly.
"All right then."
He laid the conch with great care in the grass at his feet. The humiliating tears were running from the corner of each eye.
"I'm not going to play any longer. Not with you."
Most of the boys were looking down now, at the grass or their feet. Jack cleared his throat again.
"I'm not going to be a part of Ralph's lot---"
