Midnight Toker

"In your head. I guess that's your power that makes you flip out and kill stuff like a ninja?" Stoned Jennifer may not be the smartest.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:11 am

"...no. That's... probably something else," she hedges.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:13 am

"Really?" she asks curiously, focusing her attention more on Brigid's thoughts.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:17 am

The presence feels like it's backing up, growling warily. There's an impression of golden, animal eyes glaring at Jennifer.

"...yeah. It's... nothing to worry about, seriously."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:23 am

Hey, where are you going... she thinks as she follows the presence.

"Hey, I'm not worried. Are you worried?"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:35 am

Following the presence makes its shape start to grow clearer. It's a large, shaggy form on all fours in the dark, what little light there is reflecting off of wolfish eyes. It feels like it's figuring out if Jennifer is a threat or a friend, though it's leaning towards threat since Jennifer feels like a stranger to it.

"I"m not... I'm not really worried," she says, letting out a breath. Gold flecks start seeping into her eyes.

"It's just... something I'm dealing with."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:42 am

Intrigued Jennifer pushes her mind in closer. She knows enough about this stuff to figure it's probably metaphorical in some way. "Who's a good monster? You want some beef jerky?" she wonders, summoning up the mental equivalent of a meaty bribe.

"'s cool." she says, sounding distracted.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:48 am

The presence slowly steps out of the shadows, its black-tipped muzzle snuffling. It looks... rather like a large wolf. It doesn't look the same as the wolf in the flash of Brigid's memory, though. This one has fur the same color as Brigid's hair.

"It could be," Brigid says, seeming to relax a little. More gold seeps into her eyes, and there's a twitching somewhere in her hair, at the sides of her head.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:54 am

"Well yeah, but you're the one who turned down the pot." she snickers while her avatar continues to wave around a piece of jerky in front of the big doggie.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 11:59 am

"Hey, I'm sorry. It's just that strong smells get to me lately."

The wolf lunges, snapping at the beef jerky, trying to snatch it away from Jennifer's avatar. It carries with it feelings of hunger, wild abandon, running through a forest.

Brigid winces, gritting sharpening teeth. There's a faint popping noise in her back.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:04 pm

"It's not for everyone, that's dope. Haha, get it?" she laughs at her own joke before cutting herself off in a split second. "Whoa... you hear that? Someone's out there with bubblewrap!" she says excitedly.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:07 pm

"...wait, what?" Brigid blinks golden eyes, confused. Tips of fangs are showing behind her lips. Does she seem taller than she was before?

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:12 pm

"I thought I heard something..." she says, trying to listen to the silence of the forest.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:14 pm

"Weird, I didn't hear anything," Brigid says, looking around. Something twitches in her hair again, and the fleshy tips of pointed ears finally poke from her locks puckishly.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:18 pm

"Hmm... If you didn't hear it with those ears then it musta been nothing." she chuckles.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:25 pm

"Tons of noises out here," she winces again, her frame lurching upwards. She grips the tree trunk behind her and there's a rough scraping as her nails dig into it, growing into talons.

"Can just get lost in the sounds, sometimes."

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 12:31 pm

"Whoa, hey, you didn't mention this in Power Control." she says, eyes going wide as she watches Brigid's frame tower over her, briefly glancing back at the joint in her hand as if she might be wondering if it got laced with something somehow.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:15 pm

"Wait, what?"

She blinks, then looks down at herself.

"Oh crap. Crap, crap, crap! Go back in, go back in..."

Her breathing quickens, and whatever is changing her doesn't seem to respond well to her pleading. She doubles over, her joints popping and shaggy hackles sprouting on her spreading back.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:36 pm

"Now who's telling people to go back to the dorm?" she asks, misunderstanding what Brigid's talking about. She's seen Stephanie shift in class before but this seems different so she's watching somewhere between curiously and cautiously.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:41 pm

"No, not you, this!" She grunts, her joints cracking and popping as her frame wrenches into a more monstrous shape, a red pelt sprouting up like wildfire.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:50 pm

"Whoa..." she mumbles, too dumbfounded and curios to worry about any danger.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:55 pm

Soon, there's a pile of shredded clothing freshly fallen off what is, frankly, a huge werewolf. Panting, rising back up, it eyes Jennifer and bares its teeth in a growl.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:01 pm

"Wicked..." she half-whispers. It's a little intimidating to stare at teeth that big but it's Brigid, right? Brigid's chill.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:02 pm

That's about when the werewolf leaps at Jennifer, jaws snapping.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:07 pm

"Holy shit!" she tries to slip away to the side to scramble away.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:19 pm

The werewolf skids in the dirt, missing Jennifer, but quickly turns around, growling and snapping.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:48 pm

Jennifer tries to get to her feet but gets tripped up by the underbrush, sprawling out on the floor with her face in the grass. Fuck, fuck, fuck!

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 2:58 pm

The werewolf lunges, sinking its teeth into Jennifer's calf.

However as soon as blood is drawn, it seems to think better of it. Its eyes go wide, and it releases its jaws.

It backs away, whimpering.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:01 pm

"Aaah! Motherfucker!" Jennifer rolls over and tries to push herself away from Brigid, which seems like a terminally stupid idea and she winces when she puts too much pressure on her left leg.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:02 pm

The werewolf just cowers, looking at what it did to the poor girl and whimpering.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:07 pm

"What's wrong with you!? Fuck!" she shouts, pulling her leg up to look at how bad it is, which is hard to tell through the blood-soaked jeans.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:09 pm

"D-didn't mean to," she mumbles, giving more of an impression of a scolded puppy than anything.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:16 pm

"Oh yeah, no problem--you bit my leg!" she yells, picking up a branch and hurling it at Brigid.

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:18 pm

"I'm sorry!" She whimpers, backing up, flinching at the branch.

by **Vertie Easley** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:24 pm

Vertie'd come out looking for Knobby the Hedgehog. Her pockets stuffed with "treats" pilfered from the cafeteria. "Knobby, come out. You promised to not leave the hedge maze...come out..Holy Shit!!" She spotted Brigid and blood.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:26 pm

She carefully peels back her pants to take a look at the row of puncture wounds leaking blood just in time for Vertie to show up.

"Don't just stand there, get me something to wrap around my leg." she tells nobody in particular.

by **Vertie Easley** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:34 pm

Vertie moved to Jennifer while searching her pockets, she finds what she's looking for, a pocket first aid kit. "Hold still." She worked and kept an eye on the wolf, carefully radiating 'wounded pup, my pup, stay back, not food'. "It didn't tare, only punctured. You're lucky. It must not be hungry." 'safe, you are safe, we are safe, friends,'

by **Brigid Plunder** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:39 pm

"Don't... don't want to hurt anyone," it mumbles.

by **Jennifer Newgate** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:44 pm

"Man, if she's hungry I got a bunch of snickers and stuff in my backpack." she grumbles, throwing another stick because she's not particularly smart when it comes to animals. "Oww!" she winces at Vertie working on her leg.

by **Vertie Easley** » Wed Dec 10, 2014 3:52 pm

"Shifter wolf...Miss Murphy or Miss Kaltiera?" She was now a little confused, if it was a senior or TA this shouldn't have happened. "Sorry. A few are deep, you may need stitches where her canines got you, but this will hold you until we can get you to the med center."
