"Don't thank me just yet," he said grumpily, partially because the gesture was premature and partially because it made him a bit uncomfortable. Genuine thank yous, like I love yous, were things he didn't say freely and didn't expect from anyone except maybe Rhythm. In his mind, in most cases they were best left unsaid. A gesture was better than words. This belief enabled him to give his kids shit and to snark all he liked all the while being secure in the knowledge that his kids knew how he really felt about them. Had it not been one of his sons asking this of him, there's no way Valentine would have considered it. No, he'd have laughed in the asker's face, had some fun at the Destruction family's expense, and gone on his way with an amusing little story to tell Angel or Chaos later. So to say he was displeased with this arrangement was an understatement. But, there was still a chance he could get something good out of this deal so he wasn't ready to write the whole thing off. He just hoped Rhyme's cousin wasn't as disappointing as he anticipated. "No time like the present," he friskily. "How about we go see that cousin of yours?" "" |
NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.
