[Well, for those who heard Lyn's yelling over the phones during Christmas - and how could you miss it, with his volume? - you may be relieved, or disappointed, to hear that he was let out a mere 24 hours after being locked away in his padded cell. Of course, he'd had no idea when he was getting out himself, so if he flipped out more than was ( Read more... )

[So Lyn - the twitchy, eternally paranoid thief that likes to never be far from a door or window he can bolt out of - fell asleep immediately after reading his letter from Santa, and has only just awoken someplace very different. Specifically, a padded cell with no doors. Also? He's in a straitjacket ( Read more... )

Holy balls, Mayfield, way to turn something like Santa Claus into some fucking record-scratch creeper! I think that officially ruined the entire concept of Christmas worse than all those holiday movies about the jive-talking dogs, and just the commercials for those make you forget how to work the muscles of your face that let you smile ( Read more... )

[Lyn's regain comes in the form of a pop culture reference, of all things.

Inside his envelope from the town was a tiny picture. It takes Lyn nearly an hour to figure out what the hell it means, and even then he notices only by accident. But when he knocks something off a table and catches it before it's fallen more than a few inches, he realizes ( Read more... )

[Well, Lyn hadn't really seen the need to resist the urge to try a little of the candy corn in the basement - although immediately after doing so, he spat it out. What the hell was in that fucking candy? Goddamn Mayfield and its messing around with stuff...does milk go in candy corn? He hadn't considered that but would not be the least bit ( Read more... )

[Lewellyn just got introduced to Jack Smith ( Read more... )

[Ugh, so his not!dad Howard would vanish right before Lyn regains his first demonic power - that of telekinesis. So much for proving he's a demon to him. The telekinesis is fairly limited; Lyn hardly ever uses it for moving anything much larger or heavier than a large bread box, so while he could presumably use it for much more than that at one ( Read more... )

[This isn't filtered at all, either because Lyn hasn't bothered to learn how to filter calls yet or because he just doesn't care enough to. He's been mulling over this for awhile, mostly because it annoys him to have to ask someone for what essentially amounts to thief lessons, but if he learned anything from trying to pilfer boxtops, it's that he' ( Read more... )

[So despite all the effort Lyn went to collecting box tops, he wasn't quite gullible enough to go turn them in before waiting to see how those who were quicker jumping the gun fared. And, believe me, the first person who emerged from the post office missing a limb made him decide he doesn't need his powers back that badly. So...]Okay, since people ( Read more... )

[So Lyn has heard about the cereal prizes. And, unfortunately, he's too new to Mayfield to have money or have been assigned a job yet. However, being accustomed to thievery, this isn't really an issue for him ( Read more... )
