Tue, 21 February 2006  Within social circles linked by blood The Feral Twins are more than assassins, they're celebrities. A predator pack of two that bring animal spectacle to murder, they have no past, just question marks that hang like sharpened sickles above their heads.

Sun, 12 February 2006  They weren't family in the office. It wasn't a brotherhood. They weren't even friends. But they'd all been assigned a singular shitty fate, and that made them the same. When Management descended to rob a corpse of that departed man's few meager possessions it didn't stand with the other postmen. One day all of them would be that corpse.
