Hiiiii, I love your drawings, but I have a question, the mothes- or rather, has Clay's mom not confronted Raimundo's mom about the mean pranks? For example, when she filled Clay's hat with milk, put a virus on Kim's phone, made fun of Omi... Doesn't she have any complaints? Or has Raimundo's mother already put a stop to her son's behavior?
Jolene grew up with siblings. She knows Rai’s pranks are pretty harmless. Rai was terrified when the luchadora built woman asked him about it, but Rai explained he was just teasing Omi, Clay and Kimiko a bit, like he does with his sisters. Normal friend stuff. One eyebrow raise from the proud Texan Mama got him confessing that Clay’s hat is super rank (dude eats, sleeps and trains in the stupid thing! It’s almost as bad as his boots!) and he just wanted him to wash it, and got really flustered when he explained he only did the virus prank on Kimi to spend more time with her. Omi….well you’ve met Omi.
Jolene gives a nod as understanding but gently reminds Rai that some pranks lead to hurt feelings you can never recover from. That if he really sees Clay and Omi as brothers, he needs to know not to cross that line, because nothing is worth losing a brother. Tarsila nods in agreement with this.
Clay then asks why she never talks to Uncle Otis then, seeing as he’s her only brother. Rai says Mãe’s the same with Tio Carlos.
Jolene says Otis ain’t her brother, he’s the devil, and the devil doesn’t have relatives. He just has spores. Like mold. Which you would know all about with your boots and hat there stank boy.
Tarsila says Carlos is dead to her. Rai can talk to him next Dia de Finados. Now stop being a lil jerk to your friends or you’re getting the chinela.
