[It's around 10:30pm. Sam looks a bit roughed up. Most noticeably, there's a bigass bruise right in the middle of his forehead.]

Important alert. There's some kinda werewolf thing running around town tonight. I ran into it and I think I gave it a black eye, but it took most of my power to do so, so I'm running on fumes right now. Not much help to anyone.

But, you know, be alert. Lock your doors. Get some silver bullets. Fucker wrecked my bike.

Don't fucking tell people to go around killing people!

[part_time_overlord]

Do whatever you want to it! Invite it in for tea for all I care. But it sure tried to kill me! It might try to kill you too.

[shiromadoushi]

I'm well fucking aware of that! He can't fucking control it when he transforms but that doesn't mean you should tell people to fucking murder him you ass!

[part_time_overlord]

We'll see how you sing when it leaping for your throat. I don't WANT to kill anyone but if it's a choice between them and me, I'm picking me.

At least one of the people on the Network is, himself, a werewolf. IIRC he usually has it under control, but he may have accidentally broken out tonight.

In which case, don't kill him, jeez.

[part_time_overlord]

Fine yes don't kill it. Just, be ready.

The damn thing attacked my dogs too. I've alerted animal control.

[part_time_overlord]

Think they can handle that thing?

[unelven]

That's their job, isn't it?

[part_time_overlord]

They can probably handle regular wolves. I don't know if magical beasts is in their job description.

A werewolf! Fascinating.
You could do with providing more details. Regarding the creature's size, perhaps. Speed? Level of intelligence and awareness?

[part_time_overlord]

It was big. And fast.

Didn't seem SUPER smart.

[telvanni]

Enlightening.
Big for a wolf? Or big for a human? A frame of reference is generally considered valuable when warning people of potential threats or curiosities.

[part_time_overlord]

I don't know, it was hard to judge when it was jumping at my face! Like, person sized? Maybe a bit bigger?

[professorwolf]

That would have been me. I am very, very sorry about your bike. I don't think I hurt you, did I?

[part_time_overlord]

Ah. That was you?

Well.

Uh.

[Give him a second.]

[professorwolf]

Yes. I'm very sorry. Normally I only transform like that on the full moon, and I lock myself up so this sort of thing doesn't happen, but something has changed.

[part_time_overlord]

Yes well...Beyond your control, no hard feelings, etc. I hope your headache isn't as bad as mine. You have to admit that was a hell of a headbutt.

How clearly do you remember all that?

[reapsthewind]

Yo. We got a lot of money from someone on the Network, and we're re-building the house... if you want, we can look into, I dunno, a sealed basement bomb shelter we could look you in when this sort of thing happens?

[professorwolf]

Oh, I have a room that keeps me well enough away, or I go out of town. That was the plan for tomorrow, in fact. I just wasn't expecting to change last night. It took me completely by surprise, and I couldn't get there in time.

[reapsthewind]

Ahh, okay.

If you need anything, let us know, okay?

Werewolf thing as in giant wolf or werewolf thing as in stands on two legs and looks freaky?

text

[part_time_overlord]

The first one.

[pumpkinbutt]

So why not just say giant wolf instead? werewolves are the big hairy guys with a wolf but humanish everything else!

[part_time_overlord]

My life has come to the point where if a giant wolf attacks me in the street I think of supernatural creatures before I think of mundane ones, I guess.
