“Angie likes werewolves just fine. And she’s been around some of my adult children when they were in their wolf forms, along with my mate. The rest of the pack doesn’t really have much reason to be around her while in wolf shape.”

In other words, Angela was used to seeing werewolves as family and safe to be around. Which theoretically meant that she’d expect no harm to come from her Papa in wolf form.

Carlos let out a sigh at that. Good… that was good. Okay, things were shaping up to be alright, so far.

“That’s good to hear – I appreciate it,” he said to Mia. He sighed again. “Okay… and… you’ll be here with us? At least for a little bit?”

“I’ll stay as long as you need me to,” she confirmed. “Or, at least until I’ve had time to prove that you aren’t going to harm her. Have a little faith in yourself, Carlos. I trust you.”

Carlos couldn’t help the huff of laughter that he made. “Right… right, I’ll try. Th… I appreciate your help, Mia. So… should we still have the this rendezvous at my apartment? I have to, um… do a little wolf-proofing here anyhow.”

“You’re welcome, Carlos. And of course we can still do it at your apartment! Angie was looking forward to spending time with you, that includes being in Night Vale with you. When do you want us to come over?”

Carlos sighed. “Well… sometime before nightfall, I think,” he responded. “Just… so I still have the vocal cords to help explain to Angie what’s going to happen. And we can have dinner too, if she hasn’t already eaten. Or dessert – I have some ice cream.”

“That works, yeah. And we hadn’t had dinner yet, I can bring something by if you’d like. Want to say….half an hour, to give you time to do a little prep before we arrive?” She was trying not to be overbearing, letting him have final say in the plans.

“Yeah, if you want to. I have some gluten-free mac and cheese here, and that’s enough to make her and me happy without burning the house down.” Carlos chuckled. “But you’re welcome to bring food over tonight if you want to. Half an hour sounds good… or whatever ‘half an hour’ means for me here in Night Vale. I’ll expect you soon.”

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 seemed surprised to be stopped by the other, puffing up his wings before growling defencively

Carlos didn’t make another move. He just stood in the other’s way, making a very low growl in his throat, but didn’t try to attack again.

he shot a glare at the other before trying to move around him, making sure not to get too close

Carlos snarled again and jumped in front of the other beast again. You are not going near that camp! Not near those kids!

he snarled, getting fed up with Carlos, so he gave his wings a few flaps, kicking up dirt and dust into the air

Carlos just barked at the other, his hackles raised and teeth bared.

No way, Jose – I don’t give a damn how big you are!

the
creature til;ted its head as it sat down. it looked like it could be
another werewolf, if not for the one detail Carlos hadn’t noticed yet –
the large wings pinned its sides

it curiously sniffed at him before laying down, dull green eyes seeming to glow in the dark

Nothing was happening, and the wolf realized that the other being wasn’t acting threatening at all. He gave a low, suspicious “Boof”, but the raised fur started to go down and his tail curled against his side. His haunches sat on the ground, though his front legs still held his chest up. Carlos regarded the other being with confusion and suspicion. This seemed weird, to him. It was acting so… friendly.

it wagged its tail happily as it sat up again, wings twitching slightly as it excitedly sniffed at him again. it does seem oddly excited to find basically a trespasser in its home

Carlos made a snuffing noise as it watched the other… creature. Not bear. Definitely not. But not a wolf either, like him. He backed away a bit from the sniffing, not sure what was going on.

it tilted its head again, hesitating slightly before going back over to its unfinished meal and chirping at Carlos again

What… was it doing? Was it inviting him? No, that can’t be it.

Carlos just stayed where he was. He sat up fully. his ears up as he watched the other.

it chirped again before sniffing the dead deer and looking at him

Carlos wished that he could still talk. Or that the other creature could talk – it didn’t seem like it could. He didn’t know what it wanted or what it was telling him. But despite how good the carcass smelled to his wolf brain, his human brain wasn’t going to risk getting in a fight with this thing. He was just hoping to sleep the night away before returning to his camp, eating some human food, and getting back to work.

Silently he lay down on the ground. His eyes were still on the other creature, but other wise he was settling in for a long sit.

it huffed slightly before trotting out the cave, the creatures footsteps faded away, leaving only the sounds of the night to echo through the cave

Carlos lifted his head curiously, confused. What the hell? Did it hear something?

Slowly Carlos got up and walked toward the entrance of the cave. He stopped a moment to look at the carcass left behind. He was definitely very interested in it, but some semblence of human reasoning kept him from tearing into it and he pushed to poke his head out of the cave. He listened and sniffed the air, trying to detect anything that was out of the ordinary. He tried to get a bead on the direction that the other beast went as well. A thought in the back of his mind hoped that it hadn’t gone toward any of the camps.

nothing seemed out of the ordinary but unfortunately, it seemed the beast did wander towards the camp, a trail beaten through the bushes and tall grass to help comfirm that

Carlos’ ears perked up as he felt a cold feeling go down his spine. The wolf mind thought of one thing, that had him bounding in the direction that the beast had gone: “My pup.”

as trees flew past, he could see a decent sized clearing and the beast trotting through it, unaware of the other running up yet

Protectiveness and anger swelled in Carlos’ chest at the sight of the other creature. Carlos caught up and leapt in front of it, blocking it’s bath. He snarled and snapped at it, telling it to stop.

Carlos’ ears perked up as he felt a cold feeling go down his spine. The wolf mind thought of one thing, that had him bounding in the direction that the beast had gone: “My pup.”

“Oh, look! Full moon tonight!” // hello!

Carlos felt unsettled by that, for some reason. He frowned and he drew his gaze toward the horizon where the moon was, indeed, starting to peek through the dark and dirty clouds. Just looking at it he felt sick and fatigued.

Carlos stood up from his spot by the fire. “I’m gonna turn in,” he mumbled. Though he didn’t think anyone else would care – hardly anyone knew anybody in this hastily put-together caravan of theirs. He grabbed his packs and carried it with him toward one of the buildings they had set up next to – it was a half-destroyed house, where the back end of it had collapsed into the ravine behind it.

With every step, the sickness seemed to grow and make him a little antsy, and he felt like his skin was crawling and just incredibly itchy. He hoped a good night’s rest would help him relax and feel better.

“Angie likes werewolves just fine. And she’s been around some of my adult children when they were in their wolf forms, along with my mate. The rest of the pack doesn’t really have much reason to be around her while in wolf shape.”

In other words, Angela was used to seeing werewolves as family and safe to be around. Which theoretically meant that she’d expect no harm to come from her Papa in wolf form.

Carlos let out a sigh at that. Good… that was good. Okay, things were shaping up to be alright, so far.

“That’s good to hear – I appreciate it,” he said to Mia. He sighed again. “Okay… and… you’ll be here with us? At least for a little bit?”

“I’ll stay as long as you need me to,” she confirmed. “Or, at least until I’ve had time to prove that you aren’t going to harm her. Have a little faith in yourself, Carlos. I trust you.”

Carlos couldn’t help the huff of laughter that he made. “Right… right, I’ll try. Th… I appreciate your help, Mia. So… should we still have the this rendezvous at my apartment? I have to, um… do a little wolf-proofing here anyhow.”

“You’ve been a werewolf before with no issues?” Obviously, Mia wasn’t understanding the problem. “In fact, you control yourself remarkably well. I wish all fresh pups had half your self control.”

She let out a small humming noise, thinking for a moment. “What if I was there for part of the visit? Just long enough for you to prove to yourself that you aren’t a danger to her.”

Damn – Mia was determined, wasn’t she? “Well, I only handled myself because I guess the wolf part recognized you as someone of higher rank?” Carlos suggested. “Though, you being there with Angie and me… it might work. But… Mia, I honestly don’t know much about werewolves. How do they act around people, usually? Especially young children?”

“That depends on the individual person. Someone who was good with kids as a human would be good with them as a werewolf too. Usually I’d say the only thing to worry about besides increased strength is a potentially shortened temper, but I don’t think you even have that.”

Oh, she was bound and determined alright. If Carlos insisted on postponing the visit, she wouldn’t fight, but the fae woman would try to convince him to go through with it. It was important for him to see his daughter, after all!

Increased strength.. so he probably wasn’t going to be moving much, he thought. But a shortened temper? He didn’t remember experiencing any of that… but again, Mia was there most of the time to be the ‘alpha’.

“How does… Angela feel about werewolves?” Carlos then asked softly. “Has she… has she met one transformed?” What if it scared her? Carlos didn’t want to scare her. Which reminded him, he didn’t want her to watch him transform. He’d go to another room for that.
