One Of These Is A Lie

I didn't go. Personally, I'm still getting used to the idea of people having powers at all. I suppose it's something I'll have to come to terms with sooner or later, though.

It certainly doesn't sound restful. You're alright now, though?

[bratpack]

yeah werewolves heal pretty fast, so
once i got back in my own skin, it healed up fast

nothing about that world was restful, though, i ain't sorry it was a dream
you made the right call not to go

[tangleofgarlands]

Werewolves? Really?

Sorry. I'm sure it's normal for you, but I've never met one before.
As far as I'd been aware it was just a story.

[bratpack]

well my bro, you've met one now. i'm freakin bona fido

i'll show you if you want. i love when humans wanna see. although this one guy threw up everywhere when i showed him, so like

talk some strength into your stomach, okay?

[If Arthur's honest with himself, rather than sickening, he actually finds the prospect sort of exciting--in a very particular way that he's reluctant to admit to. Flushed, he just hopes his deflection isn't too obvious.]

it takes a lot to get me queasy.
is it painful for you at all?

[bratpack]

[ Cool! He likes this human already. ]

nah man, it's a natural thing
only hurts if you try and hold it back. it just looks funkyso you game?? we should go somewhere outside, wolf me is kinda big

[tangleofgarlands]

my last lover claimed he was raised by wolves.

[Of course, whether it was true was anyone's guess--and likely, Curt had given that response as a method of avoiding the real answer. Still, it sends a thrill up Arthur's spine.]

I'm there whenever you like.
how big is big?
Just curious.

[bratpack]

hey, maybe he was
i've heard of stranger things

you ever seen a real wolf in the flesh my man?

[tangleofgarlands]

with regards to him I believe it's a matter of his home life being about as loving as if he'd been raised y wolves but I didn't want to pry.

I was already pushing my luck.

At any rate, I've never seen a wolf in person but I do know about how big they get.

[bratpack]

hey, i was raised by wolves
we're pretty loving people ok i resent that

i'll still show you though

i'm bigger than a regular wolf though
like double the size at least, so
we should do this outside somewhere, the houses here are kinda small for that shit

[tangleofgarlands]

That's a fair point. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend.

Come to think of it, wolves probably would have been more affectionate than my parents as well.

I would still like to see it, if you're still alright with showing me. It sounds like it's really something.

Should I wear flat shoes? [Come to think of it, does he have any flat shoes?]

[bratpack]

[ What kind of a question is...? ]

uh, i don't know? maybe
if you wanna wear heels or something it's your funeral

anyways i'll still show you
send me your address and i'll meet you outside

[tangleofgarlands]

Er, I mean, are you planning on doing this on uneven terrain?

I sprained my ankle falling into a ditch a while back and I'd rather not repeat the experience, but I'm not sure I have any shoes with a heel lower than 5 cm.

Sorry, it doesn't really matter, does it? I'll figure something out.

I'm at [pretend I'm not bullshitting an address here].

[bratpack]

dude we can just do it in the street, quit worrying

you're gonna be better dressed than i am either way

[ And not just because this will end with nudity. When Wyatt arrives, he's wearing jeans with various tears down the legs, and a t-shirt that's at least a size too big for him. He's also shoeless, just because that saves time. He rings Arthur's doorbell and waits, whistling off-key to pass the time. ]
