The Look of Innocence
Typhoon has always had a disdain for rules. Telling him not to do something usually results in a defiant glare and an immediate, blatant commission of the crime. Unfortunately for him, even when he wasn’t involved in some mischief, he’s totally forgotten the look of innocence needed to avoid blame.
