Well this is a lovely f***ing mess

[Daniel Uriel]

"Eight days older, actually," Daniel said grumpily, snatching the bottle back at the mention of Kyra and taking a longer drink this time.

[Felana]

Stephanie rolled her head left, then right, and slowly began shrinking into her human form, confirming that she was indeed Stephanie, if Daniel hadn't figured it out, not seeming to care that she was naked when not covered in fur. She was still in fantastic shape, but she hadn't aged particularly well. Her hair was hacked short at the shoulders, and her face was crossed by lines and wrinkles.

"Hello, Daniel...and....Melody?" she asked, turning towards her.

[Melody Martens]

Melody, once again confused, and more than a bit unsettled by talking to a gigantic werewolf, reached for the bttle and took another swig from the bottle. "Yeah....Stephanie, right?"

[Daniel Uriel]

"Hi, Stephanie," Daniel said, taking his turn again for the whiskey. "So... since we can't get enough of the morbid ego-crushing discussions, am I going to make it back to Genosha, or do I get croaked before the big bang?"

[Felana]

"I couldn't tell you," she replied, standing there not bothered by the fact that she was stark naked. "The last time I saw you after things really started going to shit was right after I got married...that was back in '27 I guess. Wasn't too much later that Genosha got wiped off the map again."

It took her a moment to realize that that might be a sore subject for a Genoshan. And that not everyone was used to or comfortable talking to a naked girl they hardly knew.

"Sorry...I don't deal with people very much any more..." she trailed off, looking down at herself, then looking around for something to cover herself with. She spotted a blanket, folded on top of a long-broken but still used couch, grabbed it, and draped it over herself. "Don't have much use for clothes anymore. Sorry."

[Daniel Uriel]

"Well, hey, it took you about twenty years, but you finally got me back, no harm done," Daniel said lightly.

[Felana]

Steph cracked a smile and then actually broke into a deep laugh that lasted, almost looking a shade more like her old self for a moment.

She sighed, still slightly smiling, "Thanks. I've been needing that for a long, long time."

[Daniel Uriel]

"Yeah, well, that's what happens when you skip all the horrors, you can still make poorly-timed and inapropriate jokes," Daniel said, taking another swig. "Oh, yeah, the alcohol might have something to do with it, too. Maybe. A little."

[Melody Martens]

Melody smiled, feeling far less uncomfortable with a covered, now smiling Stephanie in the room with them. "I'll let that one go right over my head," she said. "Stop bogarting the booze, power thief," she smirked.

[Felana]

"You, Daniel? Drinking. Never would I have imagined." Stephanie deadpanned, finally grabbing a chair and joining them at the table.

[Daniel Uriel]

"I'm as pure and wholesome as a nun's fresh-bought panties," Daniel deadpanned right back.

[Felana]

"I think you should listen to the lady, and stop bogarting the booze," she smirked, holding her hand out expectantly.

[Daniel Uriel]

Daniel smirked and set it down on the table. "Damn, can't even steal a bottle of booze and expect to drink it anymore. This future sucks."

[Felana]

Stephanie took a long pull from the bottle and passed it to Melody. "You can have some. You just damn well better share. I do bite, after all," she flashed a fangy grin.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Do you talk dirty like that back in my time, too? Didn't have a chance to find out much," he asked, slurring a little.

[Felana]

"It's not dirty, just painful," she smirked. "Who knows, all this hard living could've made my werewolf thing transmittable...or just made me really, really hungry for a good meal" she licked her lips, looking at Daniel hungrily before breaking into a chuckle.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Eh, I have it on authority from a raptor-form guy that I'm too stringy and not worth eating. She looks like a good snack, though," he joked, indicating Melody.

[Felana]

Stephanie smirked and looked at Melody, "No. I'll share him with you though, Melody. I think he'd probably turn out okay for you if we cooked him right. Some garlic, bit of barbecue sauce..."

[Melody Martens]

"Well. I'm getting to be tipsy enough for that to sound like a fine idea. As long as you do the dirty work, I suppose he could cook up nicely," she giggled, downing more of the booze.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Right now, I'm having a hard time coming up with a compelling reason for you not to," Daniel admitted.

[Melody Martens]

"We're talking about killing, cooking, and eating you; not double-teaming you, just so we're clear here." Melody cackled.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Exactly. We're in the future, I'm taking a transcendent view of things. Kill me, eat me, I become one with the universe," Daniel said, smirking. "It's the Buddhist in me. I just never got the whole 'pacifism' thing down."

[Felana]

Steph smirked. "Just remember that when you're trying to run with two torn out Achilles tendons," she said, her amber eyes twinkling mischievously.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Eh. Just be nice enough to get me drunker first," Daniel said, shrugging.

[Felana]

Stephanie took another drink and slid him the bottle. "Marinate yourself some more then," she chuckled.

[Daniel Uriel]

"Great idea!" Daniel cheered, picking up the bottle and taking a deep drink, at this point looking like he was incapable of standing.

[Felana]

Stephanie chuckled, "I think at this point we could probably light your blood on fire."

[Melody Martens]

Melody found the statement hilarious, and cackled. She was clearly feeling very little pain right now.

[Daniel Uriel]

"At least the booze in the future's good!"

[Melody Martens]

"It must be. You look pretty hot all of a sudden," she giggled.

[Felana]

"I guess you're both drunk, then," Steph smirked. "Want me to leave you two alone?"

[Daniel Uriel]

"Heh... yeah, I'll take good care of her," Daniel chuckled.

[Felana]

Steph smirked and rose from her chair before leaning towards Daniel and whispering in his ear, "If you take advantage of that drunk girl, I will rip your balls off. Literally. You're probably still with Kyra, though, so I imagine I don't have to worry."

[Daniel Uriel]

Daniel scowled again and took another drink. "She told me to fuck off because I had a problem with her obsessing over Gabriel. So I guess not. Kinda beside the point since she's been dead for a decade or two, right?"

[Felana]

"Ryan...haven't heard that name in years..." Steph trailed off briefly.

"My threat stays on the table. She's drunk," she whispered. "If you're get lonely...come find me instead," she added before standing to her full height and shifting back to her wolf form.

"Have fun you two."

[Daniel Uriel]

"Hey, don't leave me alone here," Daniel called jokingly after her, "How do you know she isn't going to take advantage of me while I'm all drunk and defenseless!"

[Melody Martens]

"Sssssecretssecrets are no fun," Melody slurred while Steph leaned over Daniel, giggling at her difficulties speaking.

She stared off into space for a moment before locking eyes with Daniel as he called after Steph. "I am shocked and appalled," she slurred, "that you would suggestthat I....that I would takeadvantage of you."

"I'd only do that if you wanted me to," she giggled, grabbing the bottle again and drinking (though she got more on herself than in her mouth). "Sonnofa..." she swore, realizing her spill.

[Felana]

Steph turned around and flicked off Daniel, with what best could be described as a mischievous smirk on her wolfish face.

[Daniel Uriel]

Daniel smirked. "Here, lemme help withat," he said, holding his hand out, which was surrounded by a halo of heat that he held close enough that it started drying her shirt off.

[Melody Martens]

"Jesuschristthashot," she slurred as she pulled back from his hand.

"Really sweet of you though..." she smiled at him with about the biggest doe eyes she could manage. She leaned back closer, gingerly adjusting her proximity to the heat.
