Somebody's watching you

[Mikko Ashby]

Lieve did Cori get home?

Lieve Averesch

[Lieve Averesch]

No. :(
I asked him to come home but he's taking his sweet time about it.

[Mikko Ashby]

CRAP

I think somebody took him Lieve
You gotta go find him right now!

[Lieve Averesch]

Somebody TOOK him?
Why would somebody take him?
What do you mean?

[Mikko Ashby]

I don't know, he was here at the shelter, getting out of the rain
and then he disappeared when I went to check on him
Rip said his crazy abusive boyfriend might have taken Cori

I have Cori's mitten, do you think we could get like
a sniffer dog or something?? From the cops? We should call the cops cause something screwy's going on around here

[Lieve Averesch]

Rip? The weirdo you met at the festival?
His CRAZY boyfriend came after CORI?
What the hell?!

Of course I'm calling the cops!

[Mikko Ashby]

HEY! Rip is not weird! He's adorable and a total sweetheart, and he's been through a lot of stuff!

I'm thinking his crazy bf thought Rip was coming here to see Cori
Maybe
Cause that guy's abusing Rip! He's some kind of psycho Lieve!

They're all psychos! Especially that guy who attacked me and took off with Rip!!

[Lieve Averesch]

Oh give me a break. His name is Rip. He's probably in a gang or something.

The boyfriend attacked YOU? And made off with Cori?
Hello? Why didn't you call the cops sooner?

[Mikko Ashby]

Rip is definitely NOT in a gang! I think he's probably an artist... or some kind of poet, maybe. Writer? He's got that air about him, you know.
Also stop judging my maybe boyfriend pls

Some other guy came along and attacked me. Not sure if he's a friend of the boyfriend... He wanted to see him, so I assume yes

And
I didn't call the cops because that guy did some bad mojo magic stuff on me
Not sure the cops know how to handle that!

Also also I was a little busy DYING

[Lieve Averesch]

His name is RIP, MIK.

And what? Are you sure he's not in a gang, if he has shithead friends beating you up and stealing innocent people?!

Great. Magic. You're right, the cops can't do anything. I already called them though!

[Mikko Ashby]

NAMES don't matter! His parents were probably weirdos but HE'S NOT!

I still have Cori's mitten...
Can we track him with it?

[Lieve Averesch]

Yes, we definitely can.
You're still at the shelter?

[Mikko Ashby]

No hospital

Aunt Shel freaked out and took me to the ER

They're saying heart attack but I'm not buying it

[Lieve Averesch]

:(
You're too young for heart attacks!
Keep that mitten. I'll be there as fast as I can.

[Mikko Ashby]

I KNOW! I work out and everything! I'm healthy!

I'm in the west wing, room 45a. Pls get some clothes too
Hospital gown... not my style
