In #principle, being #bashful won’t help your case. They know you’re not a #saint and they have you on video stealing those #rabbits. Best to own up and admit it. You don’t want to spend Christmas alone in juvie. Return the rabbits and you can go home.

It was his first tuxedo. He felt #suave & confident like Cary Grant, especially with the matching black #mask. The ladies were happy to dance with him. They couldn’t see what he felt was an ugly mug. They also didn’t know how many bodies were in his basement & who would be next.

A beast of a man he was to all
To me my one true love

His words so eloquent and #suave
I was captured from the start

Sadly his hard hit looks ruled his mind
He thought himself not worthy

Grabbed him by the waist I did
Told him, “My love you’re stuck with me!”

Digital drawing of the face of a spotted owlet showing off the intense yellow eyes and golden beak. The rest of the bird is not drawn, so the overall effect is not dissimilar to the shape of a mask one might wear as a disguise to a costume party.

At some points in Dylan’s life, he had done a fair impression of being #suave, looking debonair, rakishly handsome, even. These days he looked like a space tramp. Something the leaders of the Factions fighting The Enemy wanted to change because, like it or not, Dylan had responsibilities.

They were #home at #last, but the reason for the delay was #obscured & they weren’t talking. The ship had signs of battle on the bow & starboard side & not on the stern & port side. They left quickly the next day, with the captain saying they’d be back & nothing more.
