We work, we eat together
We need no swords
We will not bow to masters
Or pay rent to the lords
We are free men
Though we are poor
--World Turned Upside Down (traditional)
When Buick was a child of five in Chicago, his father came to him and explained the way of things. There were two tribes--the Shadow Lords and the Bone Chewers--and Buick was kin to the nobler of the two. Then his father quickly vanished before being caught and throated. Buick's fanciful werewolf stories died without reinforcement from outside sources. Then, some years later, Buick found himself hiding out in St. Claire after stealing $10K from The Family, and it was here that he met Fisher King and Velasquez and other Bone Chewers. Imagine his surprise.
Before Buick got married to a garou, he only hated some of them. My, how times change.
Buick meets Marco. Marco forces Buick out of selling pot to his friends, and starts scoring on his secretary.
Buick is not actually present for this log but it goes to show that sometimes the Garou do still think about him, and not just because he carries around a bow and a dozen silver arrows. Plus, it involves the killing of Thunder's Claws, a local SLord, by the Alpha of Cutter's pack, Untouchables.
In the previous log, Dillan is instructed to visit Buick. He does, not leaving a name or anything. The message left is that some young punk stopped by, and said he'd be back. Buick assumes that the Family from Chicago has finally found him and plans to snuff him. The next day he prepares himself and, eventually, Thomas, to be assaulted by a herd of Mafiosi. He's quite disappointed when he gets Dillan instead.
Another scene that Buick is not present for, but it takes place in the Project. In which Sally discovers the true meaning of charity. Thomas, her reluctant instructor, logged the event for me.
Another merry Christmas on GarouMUSH, with homeless families gathered around a brightly-lit Christmas tree, eating hot turkey and sweet potatoes, singing Christmas songs, and murdering small children.
Once again, The Mob Fails to Come Kill Buick. This time, it's a new Shadow Lord in town, looking to get connected with the power structure.
