Follows that...

It's real. Oh how it pines for aid. Judging by this, he's made several hundred dollars ... she has access to the admin part of it from here.

1021 dollars to be exact.

Easy enough to cancel it, to shoot the money back...

Somehow she doesn't think it's going to Detectives. His mail and billing indicated no such thing

And done...

And then... distasteful as the porn is... she shares it on his facebook. "Bitch got what she deserved" says the post.

"Lying little bitch is better off gone"

A snap of the pile of cans. "COORS COORS COORS BITCH"

"Lying botch made me hit her."

All scheduled to post late... like a midnight drunk post...

Earl peeks in, she hears him doing so and knows his footsteps "I found...oh my."

"Found what?"

She changes the password and recovery info for the GoFundMe... no changing it back now...

"Remember how I asked Livana if she drew?" Earl says jaw a bit tight. Something has upset him.

She nods. "Aye?"

"Some girls have diaries, but I guess she would have lied to herself" He shows a art book, a slim one "So she does this instead" He flips open a page to show her. IT is... talented for an amateur, she needs to work on proportions ... the girl has recreated drawings of being slapped on one page, another of being punched in the gut... slung by the wrist

She glowers. "Aye."

Another post. "I did it. It's my fault."

"It's HER fault."

"Hold on, maybe he has a scanner, he had to put the pictures up somehow"

Earl says when he realizes what she's doing " Should we put Liv's art to work ?"

"Mmm? How do you think? I am enjoying this drunken virtual vomit...."

"You're scarily good at it" he admits

"Well, all his churchy facebook friends will be scandalized."

"Not sure all of them are his friends, looks like his fame has spread... but let's turn that into infamy." He sorts through "Oh here's a good one. He's covering her mouth she can't breath as he punchs her.. god I hate this man already and I've never met him. Shall we scan it in ?"

"Sure...."

He scans it in, then says "Something about 'my step daughter's art?'"

"Hm. That, and... oh, there was a video like that..."

"No. Hostility. Mayhaps 'Choked a lying bitch. Looks like she learned that lesson LMAO.' It must seem to come from him..."

"Right. I'll live the creative writing to you" proud sound, "Go for it"

Zara nods. "If we are lucky, it will go viral..."

"And a well-placed CPS call..."

"She need not come back here. I would not have her come back here."

"And evidence will be found" he nods

"But I would have him exposed."

He eyes the art book, "leave just that picture and take the rest back or... take the whole thing back? I'm reluctant about stealing art from her"

"I think we should return her art to her, and let her decide what is next."

"I would not leave any fae in the foster system, and she is a wilder... I think we can find a network to keep her fed and housed, nu?"

"Yeah, do the more standard 'changeling thing'. I'm pretty sure the Baroness Coradel will help her.. the DeBukes might as well though I thinkk she might get bored there." A pause "Lord knows I did after a time."

She nods. "But Earth Runes has resources. We shall figure it out and keep her safe."

"Sounds good. " he says "And.. you know, I do need to make time to mentor her now and then. SHe's got potential."

She nods. "While I do not entirely approve of her making claims... well, my Hunter, you are a hero. And she needs one."

"It's not me she is worshipping, it's just my slice of the elephant" he smiles "That the night is not to be feared, but cheerished, that what is fearful is often misunderstood and had a wonder all it's own, and that most monsters, REAL monsters, walk in the sun light with the rest of us. "

"Mayhaps. But she also saw and responded to pictures of sanctuary."

"Sanctuary, and defenders. And so... may she find it, and heal."

"I do think she should meet Shalimar and Vashti."

He pauses "You know, Vashti might be a very good rolemodel for her in a lot of ways" Earl ponders "if that's what you're suggesting. Shalimar can show her the typical pooka, Vashti can show her the more sublime side and she can see she has options. Nevermind that both are more than meets the eye."

"Exactly. And I think they might both enjoy... well.." A sigh. "Prepare ye for pranks, is all."

"Oh no, they're going to target me aren't they?" He sighs "Oh well, if my falliing on a banana peel a few times doesn't fix hero worship I don't know what will." Stoic martyred troll look
