“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.

Mia hummed to herself as she paced her home, considering. Carlos was supposed to have a visitation with Angie soon, and she knew her human friend was….forgetful, sometimes. Surely he wouldn’t forget about the chance to spend time with his own daughter though, would he?

……Yeah, no. She’d better call.

Picking up the phone and punching in the number out of quick habit, she waited for an answer, on foot tapping against the hardwood floor.

Something changed in Carlos. Not physically… no, not yet, but it was familiar. Familiar and pretty damn unsettling.

Yeah, he remembered it: the heightened senses, the cravings, the ‘instincts’, the feeling that his skin was going to just peel away at any minute to give way for fur… He wasn’t looking forward to it.

His cellphone rang with the funky beats of a Classic IV song to draw his attention– a little reminder that despite his own issues, the world was marching forward around him and he had to either participate in it, or tell it to leave him alone for a little bit. Carlos answered it, noting the caller before he did.

“Hello?” he said into the receiver.

“Carlos, hi!” she chirped as her friend picked up the phone. Well, at least he’d not gotten so caught up in his science he’d let his phone die! That certainly would have been awkward.

“I was just calling to make sure you were still good for Angie to come over tomorrow? She’s been looking forward to spending the night with you again.”

If the fae woman had any inkling on what her usually human co-parent was going through at the moment, she certainly made no mention of it.

Carlos’ gut twisted at Mia’s words. That’s right… Angie was supposed to come over. Dammit he’d completely forgotten. Between his usual work and the sudden change and time just not really existing in Night Vale… yeah, he’d forgotten.

Carlos couldn’t help the sigh that escaped him, and it was clearly very audible through the phone.

“Mia,” he said softly. “I… I’m not sure it’s a good idea anymore. I mean, at least this time. I’m, um… “ He hesitated for a moment, trying to think of how to put it. But, he reasoned, with Mia bluntness was probably the best policy. “I’m pretty sure I’m going to turn into a werewolf again. I’m concerned that it’s not safe for her to be near me right now.”

“You’ve been a werewolf before with no issues?” Obviously, Mia wasn’t understanding the problem. “In fact, you control yourself remadkably 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?”

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?

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.

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?

the cave seemed empty aside from from old bones and cobwebs, at least, for the first few minutes before Carlos could hear something being dragged towards the caves opening

For a moment Carlos was frozen. It was too late for him to try to escape – there just wasn’t any more time.

Carlos shut off his light and tried to hurry further into the back of the cave. He could see somewhat of where he was going, and he wondered if his eyesight was already improving before the transformation. He pressed himself against the wall behind a sort of obstruction jutting out from it. He hoped that whatever it was would be scared away easily.

the beast stopped, sniffing the air in the cave, it was then that the strong smell of blood hit Carlos

thankfully the beast seemed more interested in its meal then finding the other. the faint light from outside helped Carlos almost see the outine of the large creature, it almost looked like another werewolf

Carlos couldn’t help but lean forward a bit at the warm smell with a tinge of iron. His senses definitely were getting better, and he was definitely interested in what the other being had brought in.

No – no, he didn’t need it. He shouldn’t. He needed to try not to get discovered – at least until his transformation was finished. Any minute now…

Carlos quickly started to push off his coat and shoes. His skin felt like it was crawling and his bones were starting to ache. It was happening.

the creature occaionally glance in Carlos’ direction with every noise he made, did it know he was there and just not care ? was it waiting for something ? either way, it was staying near the entrance of cave

Carlos had only barely gotten his pants off before the transformation hit him like a train. He let out a cry of shock as his bones started to rearrange themselves, growing and changing. His hair thickened into coarse fur and more of it sprouted to cover his whole body. Carlos was only barely aware of the changes that assaulted him and he almost completely forgot that he was meant to be hiding.

Carlos fell forward onto his front paws, hunched in a tense stance as the final changes rippled through him. When it was over he let out a low, almost pained huff of air as if he’d been holding his breath the entire time.

the creature carefully made its way towards the sound, jumping back slightly when he fell into view

it made a small chirp, trying to get the others attention to try and determine how he would to react

The chirp startled Carlos. The massive black and grey wolf jumped and tried to back into the wall again, paws kicking stomping carelessly on his discarded clothes. His tail was between his legs and his ears were pinned back, but Carlos’ hackles were raised. He was crouched low, his belly almost touching the ground as he gave a low growl of warning. The wolf was scared, and the human mind was trying to figure out what it was looking at. Was that a bear? It didn’t look like a bear.
