He was here earlier today and was so nervous, he literally kept looking over his shoulder.” Lee paused thoughtfully. “I think it might have been because Adrian kept laughing like a mad scientist at those old black-and-white movies he was watching.”

“Micah showed up shortly thereafter and was happy to meet our other “brother.”
He shook Adrian’s hand and smiled. “Now I see some family resemblance. I was starting to wonder if Jill was adopted, but you two kind of look like each other.”
“So does our mailman back in North Dakota,” said Adrian.

“Right,” said Adrian. He studied Micah thoughtfully. “There’s something familiar about you. Have we met?”
Micah shook his head. “I’ve never been to South Dakota.”
I was pretty sure I heard Adrian murmur, “That makes two of us.”

Or maybe a ninja skeleton parrot? No, that would be overkill. But it'd be cool if the biker skeleton could be shooting some ninja throwing stars. That are on fire.”

“Yeah. Rose." Jill sighed and stared vacantly ahead. "She's all he sees when he closes his eyes. Flashing dark eyes and a body full of fire and energy. No matter how much he tries to forget her, no matter how much he drinks . . . she's always there. He can't escape her.”
