Does anyone else think there's some kinda bug going around? Somebody's gotta contain that shit.

[Private to Arthur (the point man)]
Hey. You okay?

action; open to all
[That's what you get for posting right at sunset, Newendyke. Not long after there's a tawny sandy kind of orange wolf (no regrets) snuffling through town.]

[More what. Muzzle puff. Snort.]

[synanthrope]

Can't you shift back?

[Pause]

Or are you a metis?

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[He doesn't know if shifting back is a good idea. And what the hell's a metis? Freddy tilts his head curiously. One point out of his favor is the obvious notion that he understands English.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[Well. That's odd. Usually they fly into some kind of rage at that.]

What were you hoping to find out by following me?

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

["What the hell your game is!" Too bad it comes out as:

Wrhouhuhrouworrr.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[She leans over the balcony]

Shift back and speak like a person.

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[..........Snort.

Freddy sits his butt down again and now he just stares up at her.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[She moves down, opening the fire escape and coming back down to ground level, and walks past him]

Don't follow me.

[adamantined]

[There is a stare down going on right now.]

Sorry, I don't speak Giant Surprise Dog.

[orangetoughguy]

[Howwwrrf!

Come on Claire when else have you seen a wolf with caramel green eyes.]

[i-archmagus.livejournal.com]

That's something you don't need to know.

action )

[adamantined]

[Well, she can't put her finger on who this is exactly, but there's no denying they obviously know each other, and there is something familiar.]

This is going to be really embarrassing when I figure out you're actually Matt Damon, isn't it?

action )

[orangetoughguy]

[Huff. Who the fuck's that? He has eyebrows to quirk so he's quirking them. Okay nevermind that Freddy walks a circle around her.

Where you headed?]

[orangetoughguy]

Fine. What are you?

[totallyinaband]

[Stephen jumps at the bite on his tail, luckily jumping in the right direction and out of the way. His ears flatten and he growls. Hey, big tough cat. Guess who has a wolf pack, now?

He peers between the other two, hopefully. This means we get to kill it, right?]

[orangetoughguy]

[Oh yes because Freddy's pretty sure it's gonna try and kill them first. His lips pull back in a snarl, fur standing on end.

This zombie cougar don't give a shit. You know who made it a zombie cougar? A zombie honey badger. Once you've been through that you'll fight anything. Seeing as how Stephen was so gung-ho, the cat bounds straight for him.]

[i-archmagus.livejournal.com]

Nothing you need to know yet again.

[signatures]

[ Oh lawd.

Eames lunges forward, side-checking the zombie-cougar straight on in an attempt to tackle the undead pussy to the ground, jaws snapping wherever he can grab hold.

This better not make him turn into a zombie, too, because of this. The taste of rotten flesh is less than appealing. ]

[orangetoughguy]

How am I supposed to trust a guy I don't even know is just some guy? For all I know you're from the Galactic Empire.

action )

[adamantined]

[Why are you smelling me? It seems like a dumb question to ask of a dog, but it's there all the same. She takes a step along her destination's path: it's nowhere specific, but she did come out here for a walk.]

You wanna come along for a little while? [It's a rhetorical question, and it's a moment before she says anything else.] You know, you remind me of someone.

action )

[orangetoughguy]

[Sure why not.

Somebody's gotta protest her and the little puff ball. He trots along at her pace but when she says he reminds her of someone his ears perk up and his tail wags more. Who?]

[totallyinaband]

[Now that the signal from the leader is definitely GO, Stephen jumps forward, clamping his jaw down firmly on one of the cougar's hind legs. It tastes foul, but he can feel the evil kitty falling sideways...]

[i-archmagus.livejournal.com]

I am not from this said empire, and where I come from is a question I would not mind answering.

[orangetoughguy]

[That's fucking nasty bros but Freddy's running into the action too, turning the tussle into some rolling mass of fur and undead parts kind of flying. Whoops. Zombie cougars lose limbs just like zombie people do and this one's popped an eye out thanks to Eames' impact, lost a hind leg thanks to Stephen's pulling, and a throat thanks to Freddy's sneak dive. Eventually it gives up only because it can't guard its kill when it's in pieces. Simple fact.

Patooey! Freddy spits out zombie bits then shakes his whole body in a typical doggish way. Damn...free food! Cheese covered cow get. There's enough to go around it doesn't even matter who approaches their grilled cheese trophy for first pickings.]

[orangetoughguy]

Okay...where are you from?
