I Resist the Muses

My greatest fear is turning into my father. Yeah, betcha didn't see that one coming, did you? "Son of psycho killer fears turning into father." Not exactly news at eleven.

But there it is. And it's... sometimes I can feel it happening. I've hurt people before. Not kids or women, not yet. But I've come close, with Lilly and with Veronica. When I get pissed off, it's like I have this need to hit someone or something. I've got enough control that I can redirect it - I can let it out on the wall or a lamp or whatever inanimate object is handy. What if someday I can't do that? It scares the hell out of me.

The Kanes used to be the perfect family. Not like Hallmark or Lifetime perfect; how creepy would that be? Nah, they were plenty real, and fucked-up in their own way, but to me, they were perfect. Lilly'd bitch about Duncan, Duncan'd bitch about Lilly and they'd bicker all the time but they - I'd like to say they weren't serious, but they thought they were. They truly, honestly meant whatever they were saying - then an hour later, they'd be hanging out and joking like nothing had happened. I've never known siblings as close as they were. It'd be awesome to have that - a ready-made best friend who'd always be there. Someone who'd stick by you no matter how much of an asshole you were.( Read more... )

Who, me? I'm Logan Echolls. Go on, Google it. I can wait.

Yes, that Logan Echolls. Son of Lynn and Aaron. You may know me from such events as the Bumfights I orchestrated. (For which, I must add, I am deeply sorry. I have found a new respect for the people who have had such difficult lives.) Or you may have heard that I was accused of murder last year - a crime which I did not commit. (The California court system agrees, by the way.)

Hm. I bet you're here because you've been following the trial of my dearly departed father. For the record? I don't care if he was found innocent. I know he slept with my girlfriend, Lilly Kane, then bashed her head in with an ashtray. He's wacky like that.

But I bet what you're really wondering is, who shot Aaron Echolls in his hotel room at the Neptune Grand? This, my friend, is your lucky day, because I am going to tell you.

Forget what you've read. Hollywood is really run by a small, elite organization bound together by their religion. No, not the Jews. This organization believes that angels have come down to Earth in the form of our pets. Yes, you may have a divine being living in your home already. That's why so many pets are worshipped and pampered in L.A. You really think anyone would spend $1800 on a dog bowl for some mutt? These people know exactly what they're doing. "Cherish them on Earth as you would be Cherished in Heaven," the good book says.

It wasn't the statutory rape or the murder that made them off my dad. He committed the worst sin of all, and had to be punished. It's difficult to talk about this, but people need to know. My father was justly executed because he kicked a puppy.
