"vampires" -- Monkeyjack's term, were talking a bit with me, none to Charlie's joy who hoped I (the toy) would play with him -- not talk with adults.
Jeff recalled the story of meeting the siblings. I remember something like this:
Having never met them before, his girlfriend (now wife) left him alone in the backyard with the brethren seven, intellectually that age too? They huddled together and sent their biggest man to confront Jeff. Jeff -- now away from Connie, was uncomfortable, because of a "confused" person there and their general aloofness toward strangers or Lost-like "others". Junior, comfortably 6' 3" approaches lightweight 5' 10" Jeff.
"You're not white."
[pause] Jeff likely wanted to say something nasty in return like, "you're not as bright as your lighter"
Later Jeff mentions that one or more stated, "If you touch her, you're gonna be hurtin'".
Now, this is correct, despite their gutteral, perfunctory use of southern-drawl rural English
"I'm a marine and I'd like to see you try it", quickly retorted Jeff. He left because there was nothing there but a waste of effort, speaking more articulately drunk than they could sober. He found Connie, but couldn't convince her to leave. Jeff spoke with the grandma who asked for violators.
She slammed open the door and demanded a swtich so she could draw blood on wrists, punctuated with with slaps to the head to chronological adults. As it were, southern (suthnrn) justice.
Connie likened the cadre as rabbits --- overbreeding and breeding poorly (not just a pun) apparently living off state gratuities to unwilling-to-work families.
Does Jeff sound bitter?
They seem nice to me and their stories, when I get a chance to hear them, are very funny.
Connie, might be pregnant for the first time. Her cancer, finished (?) last year means that she'll have a challenging birth. My luck to them.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.
