If my son hadn't been with me, I would have punched someone on the street today. He was screaming at his kid. Calling him names. And when I pulled James away from it because I didn't want any child to see a parent treating their kid like that, the man got offended. He started screaming at me, and when his poor kid started crying, he smacked him.

I have rarely been so angry. It took everything in me not to chase him down and pummel him. Instead, I just rang the cops, but I don't know if anything happened. I hope it did. I didn't have a name or anything.

Fuck, I hate people sometimes.

And then James asked me why that man was being so mean to his son and I didn't know what to tell him. How do you explain that to a two year old?! I just promised him he would never have to know first hand. And dammit, he never will.

I'll try to swing by there again, but who knows if we'll actually catch the bastard in action. We'll do the best we can, but a lot of resources are going into that barbed wire murder, of course. Which I have to admit was damn creepy...

Not that what you saw is any less fucked, really. I'm so sorry you did. That poor boy. My heart absolutely breaks for him. James is really fucking lucky to have you, Spectre, and everyone else who looks after him. I know I'm damn lucky to have had four awesome parents, too.

That was way gross. And I can certainly understand the resources. I just...Tasha, that poor kid.

I'm damn lucky to have had Lavinia. It's only right to pass it on.

We haven't even figured out who the victim was yet. There haven't been any missing persons reports matching what description we can make of the man. We'll get there, though. That's what the processes are for.

I love to see the Littleton joy passed on. It's one of the best things in the world.

Making the Littletons joyful is a fun and happy cause.
