sixth; video

[cravats]

[The video is obviously accidental- for one, there's no way that Lyall could have turned it on, considering that he's currently a wolf. A very annoyed looking wolf, twisting around to see if his wings are still in place.

They are. He looks adorable with them, though their continued presence seems to annoy him further. What does he have to do to get rid of them? He can't go out in public like this.]

[Staring...just staring...well he's not just staring, he's staring with dog love in his eyes...

...Okay, so you're a wolf, that doesn't matter.]

[cravats]

[The video feed will cut after a bit but Lyall will respond when he's back to human.]

Is there something I can help you with, sir?

[rulingwinds]

[What...where did the winged wolf go?]

Oh...I'm sorry...but just a second ago there was...a gorgeous wolf. Ah, maybe that's weird to say, John would probably be jealous.

[cravats]

Was there? It must have been an accidental recording. That was me, as a matter of fact.

[rulingwinds]

That was...you were the wolf? [Hold on, this is the most oblivious guy, so he'll take a moment to think about that before skipping red and turning a very deep shade of maroon] Then that was a strange thing to say.

[cravats]

I'm flattered. Thank you.

[rulingwinds]

You're welcome...I have an affection for dogs...

...even though you were a wolf, it's still an affection.

So you're able to change your form at will?

[chapter_behind]

...Randolph?

[cravats]

Yes, I am. I'm a werewolf.

I usually don't have the wings- those, I believe, are a gift from the community.

[He is so thrilled about them. Yup.]

[cravats]

[Randolph will respond after he's changed back.]

I was trying to see if changing forms would get rid of them. It did not.

[rulingwinds]

Ah, like the book the "The Man-Wolf"...but you're not terrifying at all! [It's a compliment]

Right, they mentioned viruses before when I first arrived, I guess this is one. I have a set of violet ones...they're not big enough to fly with, but I can move through the air with them.

[cravats]

Thank you. [He shall take it in the spirit it was given. He's quite small for a wolf, after all- if it were someone like Lord Maccon it might be a little scarier.]</small. Yes, this would seem to be a virus. It's the first one I've had that has actually changed my body, though.

[chapter_behind]

Evidently.

[Not. Smiling.]

[cravats]

How much did you see?

[He is quite concerned about how much the community decided to show.]

[chapter_behind]

Just you in your -- other form -- with your wings.

[James has his, too.]

[rulingwinds]

You're welcome. [Keith is rather difficult to terrify so that would definitely be something special.] Hm...this would be my first virus, though it does concern me. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do when duty calls...I think my sponsors would notice if I had grown wings...

...I couldn't tell them that it's part of my mutation since it isn't and that would be a lie. It's complicated.

[chimeranomore]

... I see. Didn't work, hm?

[Zel took a moment there to remember that Lyall had mentioned being a werewolf. His own wings look like oddly metallic pigeon wings.]

I wish I actually had a shirt I could get on over these.

[cravats]

Well, that's a relief.

[He would hate to bother the community with the sight of him changing from human to wolf or back.]

[cravats]

I'm afraid not.

[Those are very shiny, sir. How interesting.]

Fortunately, my wings do not seem very bulky. They are, however, ruining the line of my jacket.

[cravats]

That is a complicated situation. I'm afraid I'm in a similar one- I'm not entirely sure how to explain this to Lord Maccon.

[He has no problem lying, but it's hard to come up with a believable lie in this sort of situation.]

[rulingwinds]

Ah...I could probably cover mine with the jet pack, but it would be a shame to crush them.

[Keith just wouldn't know how to lie. You know nice guys? He's one of those.]

There's nothing at all you could do...?

[cravats]

Quite. I can't imagine it would be comfortable.

[Lyall knows people like that. He feels rather sorry for them... but then, he's a nice person. Just a nice person who is also rather good at concealing the truth.]

I'll think of something. Perhaps a trip for a day or two.

[rulingwinds]

Probably, the jet pack is kind of heavy, but working out helps with that...still, even if it's painful I can fight through it.

[Nice guys are pretty easy to feel sorry for, but you'll never hear him complain...and as far as Keith is concerned Lyall is kind.]

That might be a good idea, I wish I could get out of Sternbild like this.

[chapter_behind]

How -- How are you?

[cravats]

Somewhat irritated with the havoc this is wreaking on my wardrobe. How are you?
