[Two men are in bed in a scandalous state of undress- don't worry, though, there are well-placed blankets. One of them is recognizable as Professor Lyall. The other is a handsome dark-haired gentleman, apparently of Italian extraction.

The Italian man is writing in a journal, with Lyall pressed up against his side, reading a book. In the background, the sound of wolves howling is audible, though distant. It's all very cozy and rather intimate for such public viewing.

Lyall puts his book down and turns towards the other man with what would seem to be amorous intentions, kissing his neck.]

Aren't you done writing yet? I am feeling dreadfully neglected.

[The other man puts down his journal and pen on the table- although he has to lean to do it, he keeps a hand on Lyall's arm the entire time- and turns towards the professor.]

For an immortal you can be very impatient, you know.

[Lyall bites him for that, garnering a not-displeased gasp from the man.]

Only when it comes to you, Sandy- I am immortal, not a saint.

Good, because if you were a saint I would not be able to do this...

[Fortunately, the video ends before anything more embarrassing can be seen. Lyall's dignity will have been damaged enough.]

[ooc: blue is, of course, Alessandro Tarabotti.]

Oh dear. That does sound rather adorable, but it must be very disconcerting for the goats.

Well, I guess if they were in the wild and being chased by predators, but even when these goats get excited about something they stiffen up.

I will have to look it up. It sounds like a fascinating condition, if nothing else.

It's related to a psychological condition found in people too, but I can't think of it off hand.

How curious!

Humans can also suffer from myotonia congenita...but it's a bit different.

Well, humans don't work like goats, so I imagine that it would be.

You're probably right...I think conversion disorder is what I'm looking for, an outward stimulus causing a physical reaction in the body. It's cuter with the goats.

I'm sure it is.

You're more of a sheep expert though, aren't you?

It's true, I don't know all that much about goat or human physiology comparatively.

I only know about the goats by means of humans, you work as a prosecutor you get into some odd things with humans.

Though I've always wondered, well...it's probably too stereotypical to ask you this so maybe I shouldn't.

What is it?

Well you're a werewolf...and you're very interested in sheep. I want to say you really like them, but wolves and sheep don't normally get along that well. What's your relationship with sheep?

I find them fascinating, all the more because the rest of the world thinks they're rather dull.

[Many people think the professor is rather dull, too.]

They are also rather tasty.

Well, you answered my question [there's still a predator, prey kind of relationship there] I've always liked lambs...well, for how cute they are. I don't think they're boring, shipworms are boring, sheep can do tricks.
