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.]

[synanthrope]

[Her spider sense is tingling, but instead of saying anything or turning around, she keeps going, turning and twisting through alleys]

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[Freddy's trying to keep track of where they're going too, in case it's a damn trap.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[She turns another corner and into an alley, and before he steps in to see she jumps and up she goes into a fire escape.]

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[Oh hell no. Freddy's sticking to the mouth of the alley, looking for her and trying to sniff her out with the street at his back because that's safest.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[she's looking down at him, watching for a second, wondering if he'll come into the alley. The fire escape is old, it creaks with her weight]

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[He can smell her perfume from above but just as Freddy's about to look up he gets an itch. Argh. Thump. The wolf sits his butt down to reach with a hind foot for his ear. Ahhhhhhhhhh....so good.]

[synanthrope]

[Saya doesn't laugh because this is just stupid]

You could do that better with fingers, you know.

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[SPRING RIGHT BACK TO ALL FOURS. ALERT. He's looking up at her again.

How does she know? Does he emit werewolf vibes? Does he stink of shifter?]

[action]

[synanthrope]

[She looks down at him. You stink of shifter.]

Just a little more.

[action]

[orangetoughguy]

[More what. Muzzle puff. Snort.]

[action]

[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.
