[ there's an awkward second of someone fumbling with the device. when scott steps back a second later, the reason's obvious: he's trying to get it to balance on his desk, giving a clear view of both him and isaac standing a few feet off. ]

Hey. My name's Scott. I was here once before, so I guess I don't really have any questions.

[ except for maybe why am i back, but he knows that'd just be wasting time. anyway, they're broadcasting for a reason, and that's not it. ]

I know stuff is really weird here, like angels and superheroes and shapeshifters, so I don't really get the point in— [ keeping secrets? that's pretty broad. he obviously didn't map this speech out, so rather than making more of a mess he just stumbles for the finish line. ] I'm a werewolf. If you have a problem with that, let me know.

[ there's no challenge in his tone. it sounds more like "sorry, but we can probably talk it out". he almost steps forward to end the feed there, catching himself abruptly to add: ]

Isaac too. [ And Isaac offers a casual little wave at that, in the midst of all his eyerolling at Scott's... presentation of sorts. Really, Scott. ]

People are missing and people are hurt, and we want to help, but we can't do anything if we're too busy hiding. [ which is the real point of this, except hold up, one last thing. ] And we know there's a full moon in a few days, but we aren't crazy and we won't hurt anyone.


( ooc: icly the day after the party/kidnappings. all dialogue is scott's because isaac is rude, but replies will come from one or both! )

Mm, exactly. I kept being a half-blood secret, of course, but not many people are fond of mercenaries, either, where I am from. Especially women mercenaries.

[freezerburned]

...mercenary?

[MAN that's so cool.]

Like a warrior for hire?

[hyanaimne]

[. . . this is the most surreal conversation ever. She can't think of anyone who actually looked excited to learn what she was]

Mmm, yes. I was hired for my magic. Whoever needed a skilled mage and paid the right price, I would take the job.

[freezerburned]

...like an actual mage.

[Wow gurl u just keep getting cooler and cooler.]

Spellbooks and all that?

[hyanaimne]

I do not use spellbooks. [she taps the side of her head] All my spells are up here.

[freezerburned]

How does it work? You say the magic words and throw fireballs, or- ?

[hyanaimne]

Mm, pretty much. There are some spells I do not need to speak, but for the most part that is how it works, yes.

[freezerburned]

[And he just nods, appreciatively.]

Cool. Show me sometime.

[hyanaimne]

I would love to.
