Small Town Hunt

Though many students might prefer going to London, Maldon provides closer amenities for those without a car or unwilling to pay for a cab. Several pubs are available, though the Rose and Crown is notable for having been where Excalibur spent a good deal of their downtime. Also of note is the Plume Library, home to many rare books.

Small Town Hunt

Tereza parks the XU car in a public car park and hops out, glancing over at Isolde. "So what do you need that we can go look for?"

"So long as you don't care about people looking at you funny and I don't know why you would," she laughs, "Rose and Crown it is then."

"Buying a small vat of vodka could get expensive," she says as they head into the Crown. Tereza waves at the bartender and holds up two fingers as they approach the bar.

"Best bar in town, or the friendliest to us at any rate," she says as the bartender sets two beers in front of them.

"It's a necessary question with you," she chuckles, taking a sip of her drink.

Out of the corner of her eye, Isolde thinks she sees a couple of guys watching them, but if she turns to look, they're having an animated conversation about the latest continental football scores.

"It is, but it was a thing. My appearance got a bit unsettling and it was easier just to take a job at the bar on campus. Then, about the time I was thinking about trying to come back, someone had to go and bite me and we're still working through that."

"Do you?" She cocks her head.

"Besides, looking unusual is something I've been used to. When I was young, I was too tall. Some bad attention. Some good attention that led to bad attention."

"Then later, I was much too tall."

"I haven't bitten anyone, no, but there's a wolf shifter at the school that probably wouldn't mind being in a pack. Then there's various others that she," she taps her forehead, "considers 'pack'."

Tereza considers the statement-question for a long moment as she takes a thoughtful drink of her beer. "If you're looking for a simple answer, then yes. If you're looking for something more complicated, I feel responsible for it. That comes with a certain amount of leading, sure, but it's a more complicated feeling than that."

"Of course not. And they don't all quite understand 'wolf', but they all have a concept of 'pack', even if they don't call it that." She looks Isolde in the eye, her irises holding a significant amount of yellow, "And I think, for the you and me, 'pack' is more important than 'wolf'."

Tereza mulls that for a moment, "They're both, but I think you and I have different ideas of what 'protect' means. I tried 'protecting' my girlfriend, in the sense I think you mean it, and that wasn't the right way to go about it. They have my back and I have their backs. If I step up to defend them, it's not because I think they're fragile or need 'protection' as you put it, but because that's a part of what having their back means."

"Let's not jinx me yet," she says with a chuckle. "So you thought about my offer?"

Out of the corner of her eye, Isolde caught one of the men from earlier making some sort of subtle gesture at them as if to indicate the two women to his companion.
