First Howl + Video

[velveteenwolf]

[It starts with cursing, with some fumbling with the device: and this is why Peter never wanted Roman's fucking iPhone. Jesus fuck how do you get this thing to work?]

Yo.

[There's finally a wave of fingers, although it seems lackluster. Flat blue eyes set into a scruffy face as the image finally catches something more engaging than the floor swings into view. Oh, hey. He's in a pair of boxers that look a little overworn, and he's on the furry side for a teen boy as slender as he is. There's a stylized 'g' tattooed on the left side of his ribs.]

Does anyone have any smokes? I don't do charity, but I'll trade something for it.

[There is a pause, he seems like he's about to cut the feed, but there's a moment of hesitance that ends in mute cursing. He doesn't care, none of this fucking matters. Fuck this place.]

And pants. I guess.

Comments

[grigio]

Okay. Cool. Tell me when I'm facing the apartment building you're in.

[And she starts turning slowly, watching windows for any sign that she's facing the right way. She missed his waving by a second or so.]

[velveteenwolf]

[He's quiet for a moment, and then--]

There. That one.

[He waves his fingers at her again. His room's on the ground floor, so, hopefully she can see him as leans in the window in his boxers. Boy is absolutely shameless, if you hadn't noticed.]

[grigio]

I see you. [Said in a totally not creepy way.] Good. Okay. Awesome.

[She heads over to the apartment building, speaking one final time before heading in.]

Stick your head out of your door in a few seconds so I don't knock on the wrong one.

[And with that, the device is shut off. She'll be coming down the hall any second now, Peter.]

[velveteenwolf]

[Peter just opens the door and kind of leans out into the hall. He's... a little bit shameless. Okay, no, he's a lot shameless. He's comfortable in his skin in a way that comes from knowing what it tastes like on his tongue.

He's leaning against the door with a bemused look, fingers scratching slightly against the scruff on his jaw.]

Yo.

[grigio]

[He says shameless, Julie probably sees it differently. She'll probably say he's just doing his own thing and that's fine by her.

She grins again, holding up one of the bags she's holding. And she's holding several.]

What's up? Sorry I don't have cigarettes. I kinda quit that ages ago.

[velveteenwolf]

What's that? Didn't anyone ever tell you that you're too pretty to be making positive life choices.

[A wolfish grin curves across his mouth and there's a sweeping gesture of one arm as he invites her into his little piece of... this place.]

[grigio]

Eh. My world's negative enough. I don't want to add to it.

[She made enough bad life choices and coped the wrong way with how her world was. Doing something positive and trying to fix things works better for Julie.]

So...hey. Welcome to the City. Did anyone tell you how this place works yet?

[velveteenwolf]

Every world is screwed. If they weren't, people wouldn't have invented cigarettes in the first place.

[There's a shrug of his shoulders -- to each their own. Given that he has to deal with the repercussions less than most do, he's not going to blame anyone for making good choices. Not really, anyway.]

Nothing detailed. Just that it's out of time or some shit and that they couldn't afford a naming committee.

[grigio]

Did anyone tell you about the curses?


[Because that's a thing here. Heading towards the nearest seat, Julie upends one of the bags. Someone did a lovely job of folding those jeans and Julie just fucked it up. Ah, well.]
