first full moon ☾

[werewolfoflondon]

[phone - open]



That's not precisely how I expected to wake up yesterday, but all things considered, it could be worse.

Well then, introductions, I suppose. Best as I can manage, at least. My name is Remus, and I assure you that I am a completely uninteresting human being. So uninteresting, I can't rightly think how to introduce myself, apparently.

[sigh] I always was crap at this.

I'm still-- still trying to work everything out here, so if someone would be so kind as to entertain a few questions? I realize we're all relatively in the dark here, but...

Ah, never mind.

Comments

[werewolfoflondon]

As alright as we can be, yeah?

[Remus has an uncanny ability to read people.]

[cursedtolive]

I guess you could put it that way.

[Though Czes is sure his situation could be much better. Why, oh why, must his "father" be the Rail Tracer?]

[werewolfoflondon]

Well if it's anything you'd like to discuss...

[Empathy empathy empathy.]

[cursedtolive]

I-it's okay. [A quick answer. He doesn't want to think about it too much. Topic change, gotta find a new topic.]

Hey, Mr. Remus, can I ask you something?

[werewolfoflondon]

Just Remus, is fine. And feel free. I don't know if I can answer, but I'll try.

[cursedtolive]

Remus, then. Well, it's just out of curiosity, and for conversation, you see.

What was your home like, Remus?

[werewolfoflondon]

It's--

[How much is he supposed to tell the Muggles here? That's something he hasn't really discussed with the others yet.]

It's a normal sort of place, I suppose. You know, we all go to a private school, but other than that it's-- ordinary.

[cursedtolive]

[He pauses, wondering if he asked something that was not comfortable for the other boy. Feeling a little bad, he responds.]

School, huh? That sounds nice. I guess you'll be going to school here, too?

[werewolfoflondon]

I suppose so. I was in my final year, back home. I wonder if it will be the same here.

[cursedtolive]

It might be a little different from what you're used to. You're not from the States, are you?

[werewolfoflondon]

Afraid not. Was it that obvious?

[Joke! The accent is a dead giveaway to, you know, anyone living on the planet earth.]

No, I'm a Brit, born and raised. And you?

[cursedtolive]

It was a guess. [Which isn't a lie. Remus's accent could have easily because he was an immigrant, and "year" could have been a slip of the tongue too.]

I'm from America, though not here. I've never heard of a town called Mayfield before.

[werewolfoflondon]

Curious. Though there are a lot of towns in America, you know.

[cursedtolive]

I traveled a lot, before. And someone told me no one knows where this city is or if it even exists at all.

[werewolfoflondon]

That is odd. And a bit troubling.

In any case, it seems we have quite a collection of minds here. I'm sure we'll all figure something out soon.

[cursedtolive]

Yeah, let's hope so. Will you keep in touch, Remus?

[werewolfoflondon]

Of course I will. And you do the same.

[cursedtolive]

You bet I will! Take care, Remus.
