I wonder what the original risk was (in persuading his brother to touch the asteroid)? Presumably, the risk of getting into trouble for encouraging his brother to touch museum exhibits. I like the exuberance of it. A solid take on the juvenile nascent-superhero theme. Technically, I would have a couple of paragraph breaks in it, and a bit less punctuation and CAPS; no need to over-emphasise like that. Other than that, a nice, easy read.
Quick but effective rundown of the creation of a ‘hero’. I like how it strays so quickly from denied remorse and regret to relief to envy and anger. It really showed a touch of madness in that.
