☝️ – Tap my muse on the shoulder
Newt had been walking down the street, case in hand when he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder. He paused, not sure who was there, but he turned to see–
“Carlos?” He asked in disbelief. It had been ages since he’d last seen the man. What were the chances of seeing him again?
“Of course – I don’t mind at all.” Newt replied, shaking his head.
Carlos couldn’t help the grin spreading on his face. “Wow… thanks Newt. I can’t wait to see them.”

“Much
more the former than the latter.” Newt replied. “Both he and his
fiancée are involved with the ministry, so they tend to stay there.”
“Ah, I see,” Edwardo said. “I suppose devotion to one’s work runs in your family, doesn’t it?” He smiled kindly at Newt.
As the summer days rolled by, a full moon crept closer and closer. Thankfully, the woods surrounding the camp were large and caves were scatted everywhere, maybe Carlos could wait this out in a cave? all he had to do was find one and hope some other animal didn’t make its home there, right? -(the worse starter maker) L
Carlos wandered through the forest. He knew he’d seen a cave somewhere – it looked like an old bear cave, though he hadn’t gone in it before. He wanted to be as far away from his camp and the summer camps, in case the children had an idea to wander around at night to hunt for snipes. The full moon would make visibility perfect for it, so it was a reasonable concern in Carlos’ mind.
He finally came across the cave he was looking for. And not too soon either – the moon would rise probably within the next ten minutes. Carlos ventured forth, holding his flashlight up to search the inside of the cave. Hopefully it was empty. Could a werewolf beat a bear? Maybe?
he huffed slightly, looking at the entrance of the cave
Carlos lifted an eyebrow in confusion. “You… do?“ he guessed.
he whined quietly, laying his head down
Carlos didn’t understand. “Drake, what do you want?” he asked.
he hesitated slightly before nunging his head against his hand, seeming abit upset
Carlos was very confused and he was honestly pretty worried. “Drake do you… need me to do something for you? Do you need me to help you?” He wasn’t even sure if Drake could understand his speech, but Carlos was going to try anyway. There wasn’t much else he could do.
he chirped softly, laying his head on Carlos’ lap, it didn’t seem like he understood the other at all
Carlos frowned, but he reached down to pet Drake’s head as he hoped to soothe the creature. He wasn’t sure what else he could do.
Maybe though, later, he could walk with Drake to the stream. It might be nice to have company.
he started to purr softly before suddenly turning into a human because anons are weird. he sat up, looking abit confused as he looked at his new body “Uh… Huh”
Carlos stared at him, wide-eyed. This was… a strange turn of events (to say teh very least). “Uh… what?”
“I.. Guess This Is Happening..?” he had a few bruises here and there, and he needed a shower
“Uh… what’s happening?” Carlos asked him. “You… you’re not a were human, are you?”
“Were Human..? I Don’t Think So..” he shifted his wings slightly “At Least Some Things Don’t Change..”
“This is… weird,” Carlos said redundantly. He grabbed his labcoat and gently spread it over Drake’s lap to cover up some… things.
he seemed abit confused by the other covering him “What’s this for..?”
“Oh, um… it’s sort of a ritual for humans. A lot of us prefer to be covered and that others cover themselves. It’s why I was pushing your head away earlier… I didn’t want you to see me uncovered.”
he tilted his head slightly “But I Was Nude Earlier And You Seemed Fine With It Then.. Humans Don’t Make Much Sense”
“Yeah, I know. Again, it’s a ritual sort of thing. And since we’re both in human bodies now, I’d prefer that you’re covered up. You know we have dogs and things and we don’t always dress them up, right? Humans don’t mind so much when it’s animals.”
dedmax drank paint and is talking with adult strangers
Why the hell – Max? Max, where are you buddy? I need to know how you’re feeling.
… how much do toothbrushes even cost? i’ve never had to buy one before..
Well, it depends on the kind that you get. But generally they’re pretty cheap. Especially kid’s ones.
*he nods slightly* alright, that’s good i guess
Well, I want you to get a good one too. I’ll help you pick it out, Max, and I’ll even help pay for it if you need me to.
*he smiled softly* thanks Carlos
You’re welcome, kiddo. *Carlos smiled at him. They approach the car.* Here we go… *he unlocks it and opens the back passenger door for Max*
*he said a quick thanks as he climbed into the seat, buckling himself in* how old do you have to be get a drivers license?
Well, you can start driving when your fifteen with a permit and an adult in the car. It’s to help train so you can get a license when you’re sixteen.
16? *he groans* but i can drive now! why do i have to wait 4 years?
Uh… you most certainly cannot drive now. Because the law said so.
*places Carlos by Max* he’s drinking alcoholic beverages
*he groaned, pulling his hood up*
What the – oh… *looks at Max* Hi Max.
hey Carlos.. *he muttered, figuring the other already knew*
I know what the anon said, but do you want to tell me yourself what’s going on?
.. i don’t know.. *he put his hands in his pockets, looking at the ground*
Max, I’m not angry. Disappointed, but not angry. I want to help you do better. Where are you getting it?
i’m not gonna throw him under the bus like that.. *he sighs softly*
Max, this isn’t about throwing someone under the bus. THis is about your health and safety. I need you to tell me.
