VLVL 3 Zoyd and Hector

[Don Corathers]

Don't have a DSM-IV handy, but my Merriam-Webster says "a mentally ill or
unstable person." I think that applies. Besides his tubal problems, I was
particularly thinking about Hector's disconnectedness, his ability to banter
with Zoyd while trying to fuck him over, and his glib willingness to do harm
to others without much giving a shit about it. Although obviously next to
Brock he's a puppy dog
