Cherry Red Mustang
"No. I mean… I really… love you."
Well.
Talk about grabbing the bull by the horns.
Maybe Kip did have cojones after all.
-:-
They're in the backseat of Kip's new ride. Charlie loves the sounds Kip makes beneath him, how easily he yields.
Much more fun than doing Randy.
-:-
He's just given Mavis a return for her investment.
So she's where Kip gets his sounds.
-:-
Kip is broken up when his Mustang is jacked.
In the back of Charlie's DeLorean, Kip's sounds suddenly aren't so appealing anymore.
-:-
Kip. What a whiny puppy. (Though considering Mavis…)
Nothing wrong with kicking a mutt like that aside.
-:-
On the morning of June 22nd, the news reports Charles Danville's death. A carjacking gone bad. Inwardly, Mavis sighs in relief.
Kip cries, even harder than last night, which was the hardest Mavis ever remembers her son crying. She wants to tell Kip that that cold-blooded reptile isn't worth his tears. Instead, all she can offer is a half-meant apology.
After her son cries himself to sleep (again), Mavis has to take a drive. Clenches and unclenches the wheel.
You son of a bitch. Even in death…
