So this show is older than I am.... but regardless..
Was I the only one to get hit with a 'I can fix him' feeling?

Nevertheless heres the basic background of a prompt, past it is the starting message.

Spike has been kicked out of his old gang weeks ago and is actually starting to feel better. Not that he'll admit that out loud to anyone...

He's cut back on his drinking, the nights bleeding into one long blurr have become less, he still fights and gets in scuffles like anyone his age would, but he doesn't feel as pressured into violence as he was before.

Seeing his old gang scruffed up doesn't bother him much, however spotting his 'other friend' just as beat up Dose concern him.

Initial message

The Scavengers Gang... dinos that Spike used to hang out with and maybe still would have, if it hadn’t been for the fact that Robbie had literally dragged his entire family into an altercation with the gang and Spike had jumped in to help out the Sinclairs.

Rightfully so Spike had been thrown out of the gang then, so he hadn’t expected to spot them, santuring grumbly through the edge of Spike’s neighborhood. All of them were cut up, bruised and full of teeth marks as they lumbered back in the direction of their clubhouse. Spike hadn’t bothered much about it, every gang got into fights for territories.. Besides, why should Andre stop trying to expand.

What the blue scaled Polacanthus had expected even less, was to see his ‘other friend’ ruffled up just as bad as he’d seen his former gang-mates yesterday. Scales missing, fresh claw scratches and bite marks and a constant tense scowl, all but chiseled into their face as they grumbled about.
