Acid is less than a pet. He's more like the neighborhood dog. It recognizes you, you might even feed it once in a while, but you could never call it yours. Still, I could see Taylor making the offer, and I could just as easily see Acid refusing it. We musen't forget, Acid is a wild animal. He prefers the outside, and he's designed to survive in it.
