Closed: Werewolves are not a device to sell shitty papers.

Sebastian was, for lack of a better term, brooding. He'd been staring at that stupid fucking Daily Prophet article since he'd gotten his hands in it and was no where closer to sorting out the chaos it had turned his head into. It hadn't said anything, specifically, about him being a werewolf. It was heavily implied but not out right labeled. Of ( Read more... )

Ever since the black out Sabrina had been much more active and perky, not wanting to feel for an another moment what it felt like to be so weak that way. She had more energy than ever before and that wasn't just because the full moon was approaching them. It was like the magic inside of her was swelling, trying to compensate for the lack of magic on that terrible afternoon.

She was actually just now on her way out for a run, tight and obnoxious running shoes on her feet. There was only so long that she could fight these social norms.

"Hey- um, what?" she asked, tilting her head as her ponytail spilt over her shoulder.

"We ... have a problem." It was about as ominous as anything Sebastian could have said. He didn't want to panic Sabrina - there would be plenty of time for the rest of the world to panic - but there was no getting around it really. Sebastian felt like even though his tone was modulated, his usually stoic and unimpressed expressions were slipping.

There was too much anxiety surrounding everything, and he could feel the panic pulling at his eyes and spiking his heart rate.

It was too soon after they'd nearly died and too close to the full moon for this. Sabrina might practically vibrate with energy, but Sebastian filled with anxiety and trepidation, disappointment and fear for which he had no outlet. Hopefully, he could keep it together for Sabrina.

"It's out there. The fucking Prophet is talking werewolves and naming us. More heavily naming you. And the pack." He finished crossing the room and held out the paper for her. "Someone in the Ministry is talking." It was only a matter of time, maybe, but with nearly a full lunar cycle ( ... )

Sabrina had never really been one for reading the paper, which was strange considering that she had watched her father read The Prophet almost religiously ever day and it had actually been this very paper that had led her back to her brother. But she was so unfamiliar with this world now, feeling absolutely no connection to the events.

Then again, that was before the articles were actually about her.

Now there was definitely a connection and it made her stomach twist up before sinking right to the floor, eyes going wider than usual and her mouth was dry.

"No- what? No-" she said, shaking her head wildly, a part of her hoping that Bash had finally loosened up and this was some sort of strange practical joke.

They hadn't actually even properly announced her return yet, waiting until this whole thing with Nolan had been cleared up before drawing attention to her.

"How is this even possible, Bash? What did it say about me? Me? Really? Are you sure?"

Sebastian blinked and shook his head. As if he'd be telling her this if he wasn't sure. Did she think he'd suddenly developed a penchant for practical jokes? That was far more ridiculous than some loose-lipped Auror - fucking Aurors - making nice with a gossip columnist.

He shook out the paper and held it up, reading the highlights.

"- full-on attack of the Daley Manor on March 16th. Yes. Those Daleys. That's the start. Sebastian Daley had returned from Merlin knows where. That's all it says about me." Which was a relief only in that people weren't going to be paying too much attention to him.

It also served to make him angrier since he'd rather be the focus than his baby sister. He cleared his throat and went back to reading. "Sabrina Daley ... has popped up too." There was a fucking exclamation mark. Sebastian was irrationally irritated by the punctuation. "This werewolf is , talking about the young Daley girl and how much his pack needs her to return.That was all he could get through before his fist closed around the pages and ( ... )
