Bullying a Dragon | |
Mikey / int_7eb73553 | comment |
Bullying a Dragon: Mikey's first foster family were dead guilty of this. They slapped and scapegoated him, and hardly showed him any genuine affection merely because he's not biologically related to them, so he does them all in. | |

Never My Fault | |
Mikey / int_973d220f | comment |
Never My Fault: Beth, Mikey's (first?note on-screen at least) adoptive sister, acquits herself of the fire Mikey started which he claims he only did because Beth asked him to. Beth denies this and is believed by her mother, while Mikey gets a slap in the face. Angry and feeling betrayed, Mikey takes Beth's doll toy and uses it as bait to drown her in the pool. When Mikey is questioned by the Detective, he lies and says an intruder broke into his house, claiming he had bushy hair, a mustache, a red jacket, and a big and brown car. The Detective then goes on to suspect that the victims knew the killer, based on the fact that there was nothing stolen, the bodies were found so far apart, and that there was no forced entry. | |
