All I know are sad songs

"As well as always," the tusked man said. Lucky duck. For Valentine life had rarely been so even keel. While it was stressful at times he didn't think, honestly, that he handle life without it. It sounded nice to be good always, but what would he, Valentine, be without conflict? Bored, that's what he'd be. What if that one alpha guy had simply handed Avalon and co. over? What if Bass had been like "meh, she's only my sister. I have others"? He'd have died of boredom by now.

Aki's question was tough. "I don't think I'd use the word 'kindly' to describe its treatment," he said saucily. "As you may have noticed," the King said with a ghost of a smile, "Things have gone to fuckin' hell." Clearly he had noticed otherwise he wouldn't be standing in the middle of formerly claimed territory.

Instead of waiting for further questions from Aki, Valentine went ahead and gave him a rundown of what had happened. "I got sick," he began, "With that plague that was going around. Ended up running for the hills with phantom boogeymen on my heels. My son came after me and while we were gone the sickness spread and the pack...collapsed for lack of a better word." He paused for a second then wrapped his explanation up by saying, "I got better, we came home, and here I am. King of nothing."
