Cocoa Hooves

He just wanted a family.
Eventually, at least, since he's still in college.
But nothing in life is fair, and after mistakenly hooking up with Anita at a party, he might never have the normal life he dreamed of.

There's a part of this world lurking under the surface. It's dark. And angry. And hungry. And it's sunk its claws into Nikolai.

Come on you hermit, you never fight back
Why don't you play with bows and arrows?
Why don't you dance like
You're sick in your mind?
Why don't you set your wings on fire?

Come on you hermit, why don't you play nice?
Why don't you toy with sex and violence?
Why don't you stare back
Into my huge eye?
Why don't you set my wings on fire?
