They called. So we went. And no one showed up and so we left. Simple. Easy. Fast. Cautious. Always kept an eye out. Kept two. Always. And I asked father why they wanted us to check the house. And he said he didn’t know and I asked why he didn’t ask them and he said “You’re gonna get nowhere if you always have to explain yourself to other people.”
Made sense… made sense.

This dude lives under my desk. He’s actually small. Photo adds ten pounds. In exchange for not killing him, we negotiated a photo deal. Check the pose. He didn’t want his face seen, hence the blur.
