He shrugged. “Shot my neighbor’s rooster yesterday.” The entire room broke out in a cacophony of shouts. “Oh, you are messed up in the head.” Whip’s disgust was written all over his face. Torch rolled the wheel on his lighter so fast it made sparks. “This makes me real fucking unhappy, Ace. Real fucking unhappy.” “You can’t fucking kill animals, you psychopath!” X shouted.

“Fuck off. I don’t hate you because you love the dick. I hate you because you are one.”

“And sometimes I wish the two of you would just admit you want each other and kiss, but hey, we can’t all get what we want, can we? I’m going out to help some people who aren’t in the middle of using an argument as foreplay.”
