27th Howl [Audio | Monday morning]

It looks as if Karl-slash-Richard Locke is no longer one of us, as it were. He seems to have forgotten about everything, and didn't have any idea what I was talking about when I mentioned tomorrow night's problems. So if you regularly talk to him about network type things, I'd suggest not, for the foreseeable future... it could wind up finding the wrong ears.

[He sounds somewhere between annoyed, resigned, and actually a little nervous.]

It causes me a particular problem, as I was hoping he would help keep watch over me and my other werewolf friend tomorrow night, for the full moon. We really do need a second guard, given there's two of us now, and I really don't want my living room torn apart again. It's getting expensive.

[Thus, there's a small, still-nervous sort of smile to his voice when he asks, hopefully:]

Anyone feeling up to a night of werewolf duty?

As long as he doesn't have any kind of super strength or hands that can open doors, he should be just fine with a basement, yes. I still need to officially meet this man Monroe, of yours.

So Derek Hale has accepted that he's likely a werewolf, as well, then?

I'll hope he leans more towards the wolf side of werewolf, then. There's a couple of different storage containers down there, I could lock him in one, but I don't think he'd like it very much. ...yeah, you do. You should come over for dinner, some time.

I don't know if 'accepted' is the right word. More like 'reluctantly considering that's what's most likely.'

He was certainly reluctant when I spoke to him, though I'll admit I probably jumped the gun a bit with the guess. That does seem to make five of us, now. Interesting. I would wager, however, that the importance of keeping people safe is a bit more than the importance of Monroe's approval of the situation.

I certainly wouldn't mind coming to call for dinner to meet him at some point :) Just don't expect me to eat any of the dessert.

He's been reluctant with me since the hearing thing, too, but that might be because I made a few dog jokes. ...tasteful dog jokes. And yeah, you're right, it is. Have you thought about doing something similar, to save your furniture?

We'd love to have you. Are you not a dessert guy?

Dog jokes. Very clever of you, Nick :P As for someplace else, I have consider it, but I simply don't have much knowledge of other places. Julien suggested I simply leave the city for the duration of the night, which is a possibility, but will require a bit of work to make it feasible.

And I can't properly digest processed sugar and chocolate.

The dog jokes just make themselves, I know.

If I do end up having to rent out the basement, there's more than one storage room in it. I don't know if it'd work for you, but you'd be welcome to one, if trying to leave doesn't work out.

...oh come on, man, that isn't fair. You just stole all the fun out of making any jokes about that.

I work with teenagers, Nick :) I am practiced in how to head off terrible jokes. On a good day, I even see them coming in time to use that practice.

So far there's four or five of us. As long as my own room holds, I should probably offer your space to someone without one. But thank you for the offer.

I'd pretend to be offended at the comparison to teenagers, but it's not that far off. My terrible joke would have been at least twice as good.

Good point, but sometimes I think you're too noble for your own good. The offer still stands if no one else is interested, though.

You're much more pleasant company than most teenagers, so there's that.

And I like to think of it as merely being practical, but thank you :) I will keep that in mind, either way, in case it becomes needed, and I definitely appreciate it. Dinner, however, is definitely something I'll accept.

I may bring Stella, though. You've met the ferret, I presume?
