Steve may have a heart, but he’s still narcissistic as Sith Lord Sexypants! At least along with the rest of the Bloom gang he’s helping to make a sick boy happy….
Way to go Berk! Love the story arc and so glad your back. I still remember when you helped force the evil animal testing at Mary Kay to stop with your “Night of the Mary Kay Commandos”. Keep up the good fight by drawing attention to our many social issues…or is it social madness we suffer from?
Actually, when I was in the hospital (at about Sam’s age) for two three-week stints, I liked the pudding pretty well. I also liked the Jell-O. The veggies were generally over-cooked a bit, and the liver was…well…liver (luckily, the first night they served me liver, mine had a glazing point in the first bite, and they took it back, brought me a hamburger, and never served me liver again!). The nursing staff was absolutely fabulous; kind, friendly, competent, even fawning, I would say.

Gasp. Can even Steve realize other folks’ issues may be more serious than his?

Good save, Steve. Even utter self-absorption has its limits. As Mom once told me, there is always someone worse off than you.

Go back and reread it, but keep an eye on Milo. (So glad to have you back, Berk!)

Heh, was waiting for this one to come on.
Abby, unaware of Steve’s propensity to anger, is fearless, while the veterans (Opus, Binkley, and Milo) cower in terror, waiting for the blowup.
But the Force is strong in young Sam—he needed no Jedi gesticulations to use his mind tricks on Sith Lord Sexypants.
So give him pudding!

Steve, you’re a reprobate.
Still, well played, Lord Sexypants. Well played.
