Can he play if he's already a werewolf? If not, feel free to ignore. :)werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 04:06:49 UTC
[Oh, uh, this is... awkward. Ben had stashed the pack with his clothes in it behind a handy bush and then gone for a wolfy run in the park. He didn't expect to encounter anyone tonight, and he's damned sure that she didn't expect to encounter a wolf the size of a Shetland pony holding a backpack in its mouth.]
\o/ Also, I will curse Fox forever for cancelling this show. Among others.werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 04:16:34 UTC
[Owner? His Guardian Angel is around, unseen, some-- Oh. She thinks he's an actual dog. He flattens his ears and wags his tail apologetically. Really, he's no threat. None at all.]
Urg, I know. I had such high hopes for where HT could go with time, but Fox hates genre shows.the_scrappyJuly 30 2011, 04:23:33 UTC
[She relaxes by degrees.]
Hey fella. What are you doing out here by yourself? And where'd you get that?
[As she extends her hand to let him (her? she's certainly not going to check) sniff it, she eyes the pack. It doesn't look expensive, but that doesn't mean there's nothing worth stealing in it.]
They really do. *cries*werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 04:31:27 UTC
[It's, uh. His. And there's nothing in it but some Wranglers, a $3 XXL Toy Story 3 t-shirt he got off the clearance rack in the kid's section at Walmart, a pair of white athletic socks, and a pair of purple Nikes. Just... normal stuff. For going out for a run. When he's wolfed and planning on going back to human before he goes home.
But he drops the pack and politely sniffs her hand, still keeping up that slow tail-wag. He casts a glance back toward the dark bushes, because that's where he'd planned on Changing when he was interrupted. And he'd kind of like to do that, still.]
It makes me hope Terra Nova fails miserably.the_scrappyJuly 30 2011, 04:40:09 UTC
[She scratches him behind the ear, gently, as she purses her lips and talks in a baby voice.]
Aw, whatsa matter? You lose something over there? [And now she's wondering if there's a stash of goodies in the bushes. Or, more probably, a homeless person. It wouldn't be the first time she's seen one sleeping in the park, and lots of them had pets.]
I will watch it and they will cancel it after four eps.werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 04:45:33 UTC
[Didn't lose anything but his human shape over there. But, ohhhhhhhhh, ear scritches, yes, please. He doesn't get nearly enough of those with Guri reassigned and the rest of the human members of his Pack kind of scattered right now.
With an apologetic glance at her, he scoops the backpack up in his jaws and heads toward the bushes.
Please don't follow him? Probably a forlorn hope.]
YES DINOS. And Jason O'Mara.werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 04:55:37 UTC
[The bushes rattle a little, and a couple of minutes later a rather scruffy, slightly-built human guy dressed in the aforementioned clothes steps out, scrubbing a hand through his hair.]
*googles* ...I haven't seen anything he's in. :(the_scrappyJuly 30 2011, 05:00:38 UTC
['scuse her, she'll just be over here gawking and flailing.]
I--what-- what are you? [She wields her iPod like a shield as she bounces on her heels, ready to go tearing down the path. Lone jogger encounters strange creature on a dark path at night? Yeah, she's seen this movie. It doesn't end well.]
"Life on Mars" was awesome and you should totally watch it.werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 10:16:13 UTC
[Ben briefly entertains the notion of telling her that he sent his "dog" home after it woke him up from a nap in the bushes, but realizes that probably won't fly.
He tries to make himself look as small and harmless as possible. Since he's barely 5'7" and has practiced a baby seal expression to perfection, and he's on a cane, maybe it works?]
Uhm. Look at it this way. If I wanted to kill you, you'd already be dead?
That was a British show too, wasn't it? With the cop who ends up getting stuck in the 70's?the_scrappyJuly 30 2011, 14:48:39 UTC
[She shakes her head.] But are you really-- I mean-- you just turned into-- wait. [This, this is one of those shows right? The ones where they set up some screwy scenario to freak you out? There are cameras here, aren't there? Joke's over, guys! Very funny. [Her laugh was meant to be hopeful but emerges just shy of hysteric.]
Yes it was! I never got to see that version, though.werewolf_hackerJuly 30 2011, 14:59:28 UTC
[He sighs.] It's not a joke and, thank Dad, no cameras. I really just went from a giant wolf to, well, this. Fortunately for both of us, my particular brand of werewolf doesn't get the hyper-rage thing in animal form. Still me in there, mostly. Thanks for the ear scritches.
Well, there's not usually anyone around this time of night, and I couldn't sleep. [He hefts the backpack.] Going wolf for an hour or so lets me just be instead of thinking all the time. Makes the hamster in the wheel in my head slow down a bit.
I don't usually go around telling random strangers what I am, for what it's worth. But you sort of stumbled on me, so...

Woooahkay, nice doggie. Nice doggie...what happened to your owner? [She casts a few nervous glances from the backpack to the bushes.]

Leaving me already, huh? Don't get into too much trouble, pooch.

So you just...turn into a wolf, run around for a bit, then turn back into a human? [She glances around.] In the middle of the park?
