According to a couple of sources, he said so explicitly.
You'd never make it. I'd rip your spine out before you got half a step. Those little legs wouldn't be much good without one of those.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Francis Xavier, afaik, was inspired by Francis of Assisi, so it's not necessarily XOR.

I'm about to make Loki into slippers. He's been knocking things off the stove and has knocked the same box of meds off the windowsill 4 times. I have no idea why he needs to make out with the goddamn stove. And this is not a cat who even begins to understand being yelled at or flicked. He barely gets the squirt bottle,a nd I can't find it anyway.
