Alpha and his love of doggies makes me all happy inside. I can just picture him turning up at an animal hospital with Percival...
Dr. V telling his creatures to kill everyone, even the kids... Not so much. Feels very out of character, as if he stopped being the more interesting, complex person he was and just became Generic Mad Scientist from Central Casting.
Like other commenters, I'm glad Jenkins finally got to see something out of the ordinary... But he may yet rationalize it away. I guess we'll see.
WV: tersto a technical term used in opera for a measure meant to be sung in a terse, concise manner.
I don't think that it would be too hard to rationalize this: Grandfather obviously sicced his supernatural pet on Jenkins for threatening him. If there's some sort of demented, twisted dark magic at work, you just know that Grandpa is to blame somehow. I can't believe that they shot it though; it did have (some of) its hands in the air. V-word: precogro. A spell to make you smart. Not to be confused with peacogro, which gives you a big head.
PETER AND THE VAMPIRES is a horror/comedy web novel (and a free podcast!)about a normal, 10-year-old kid who moves into a sinister town filled with supernatural horribleness. The series is composed of different "monster of the week" stories - kind of like THE X-FILES crossed with THE SIMPSONS (if Mr. Burns were a ghoul and something terrifying lived in the town dump). "Peter And The Dead Men" is the first story in the collection. A new page is posted every day.

Bad penny always turns up.
Great descriptions in this story.
Jenkins finally saw something
About danged time.... creep...
Let's hope he doesn't try and charge them all.
Knowing him though, he will.
Oh oh, Jenkins is going to write this day off as one bad dream.
Of course he might start listening to Peter and Grandpa when they say something was there.
And Handy is finished now as well. I wonder if the Leg ball got away, or did Big and Scary flatten it when he threw him.

MAYBE Jenkins will listen...probably not.
Miss Lynx -
Glad you like Alpha more.
Well...Dr. V's crazy part came out...
Um the Muse -
Naaaw, I don't think Jenkins believes in the supernatural. But he'll go with freaky lab experiments.
Niiiiiiice about the hands joke.
