"I tend to be more on the side of punching things myself, but if you're around long enough you start to realize there are an awful lot of things you can't punch."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 4:39 am**

"I mean... you're not wrong. Wait, what do you mean long enough? You don't look that old!"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:23 am**

"Ah, if only it were a compliment when people said that."

"I'm not as old as the one who had me deliver you those books, but I'm older than I look."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:27 am**

"Well it is, yeah? And I guess you didn't accomplish that by punching."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:33 am**

"No, I accomplished that by being desperate and running into something I still wish I knew how to punch."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:28 am**

"You sure you don't need these more than me then?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 8:05 am**

"I can't do what you do, little sphinxling."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:43 pm**

"Because I'm magic? Is that what I've been doing?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 5:55 pm**

"You've been doing what sphinxes do. You aren't the first."

"Most of them have been a little better at hiding it, but this is an age of wonders I suppose."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 6:16 pm**

"Wait, what? Hang on. You mean there's been others like me?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 6:27 pm**

"What did you think the Greeks and the Egyptians were on about?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 6:29 pm**

"I... I dunno. Hang on, how old did you say you were?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:22 pm**

"I'm not that old."

"The last one I knew about was from Blavatsky's little coven. Blavatsky of course wanted everyone to believe she was the special one."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:30 pm**

"I... don't know who that is. Should I be taking notes on this?"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:36 pm**

"Ah, what's the point in being coy if nobody gets your drift?"

"I'm just shy of four hundred years old. I turn into a wolf when the moon is full."

She lifts up a pants leg to show a decidedly unshaven ankle graced with a tracking device.

"I'm not going anywhere. Your headmistress seems to want to keep me around."

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:39 pm**

That seems to make a couple things click in Nailah's head and she takes a guarded step backwards.

"You're the one who bit Tereza!"

Posted: **Fri Dec 15, 2017 7:41 pm**

"Guilty as charged. I've been trying to make up for that."

Posted: **Sat Dec 16, 2017 4:10 am**

"Well... alright. Just don't slip back into being a bad guy." Nailah frowns a little.

Posted: **Sat Dec 16, 2017 4:12 am**

"I don't expect you to believe me, but I'm under house arrest and monitoring otherwise."

Posted: **Sat Dec 16, 2017 5:01 am**

"No, I think I believe you. Just... stick to it."

Posted: **Sat Dec 16, 2017 2:17 pm**

"Just like that, eh? Do you really think anyone ever sets out to be a 'bad guy' in their minds?"

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:50 pm**

"Well yeah, when they decide to go rob a bank or sell drugs. You know, do bad guy things."

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:51 pm**

"And what came before that?"

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:52 pm**

"What do you mean?"

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:54 pm**

"Nobody wakes up one morning and decides to rob a bank for no reason."

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:55 pm**

"Well I'm sure they got some reason. I wouldn't know, I'm not a bad guy."

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 9:56 pm**

"No?"

"So what would it take to get you to rob a bank?"

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 10:03 pm**

"Maybe if there was something else going on, like having to rescue a friend from the vault. But not to just keep the money." she says, beginning to sound less secure in her arguments.

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 10:04 pm**

"Good intentions, then."

She lets that hang.

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 10:13 pm**

"Okay, fine, some people might have good reasons, but that's not everybody! What was your reason for biting Tereza?"

Posted: **Mon Dec 18, 2017 10:16 pm**

"I was in a fight. The path from there to where I wanted to be went through her arm."

Posted: **Tue Dec 19, 2017 9:53 pm**

"Hrm. So you didn't mean to turn her into a bitey wolf thing?"

Posted: **Tue Dec 19, 2017 10:29 pm**

"The truth? I don't know. What I am doesn't want to be alone."

Posted: **Wed Dec 20, 2017 2:13 am**

"There's better ways of making friends though."

Posted: **Wed Dec 20, 2017 9:42 pm**

"Friends, yes. Packmates, no."

Posted: **Mon Dec 25, 2017 12:12 am**

"What's the difference? I mean, aside from the howling wolfbeast thing..."

Posted: **Tue Dec 26, 2017 7:09 pm**

"Have you ever seen a wolf in the wild alone?"

Posted: **Tue Dec 26, 2017 11:42 pm**

"No, but I bet there was times when there was a wolf who just had human friends, right?"

Posted: **Tue Dec 26, 2017 11:44 pm**

"That's not a pack. It doesn't feel the same."

Posted: **Tue Dec 26, 2017 11:48 pm**

"Cause the human's in charge?"
