2nd Floor Common Room | Sunday Evening

So it turned out there was a whole channel dedicated to cheesy horror movies. It might not be Halloween time anymore but Isaac was always up for ragging on cheesy flicks about killer clowns. He even popped some popcorn for the occasion.

He hoped one of the clowns killed somebody with balloon animals. That'd be hilarious.

Holy daddy issues. And Isaac thought he had a problem.

"It doesn't matter much anymore," Isaac said with a shrug. "He's dead now."

[flickofthewrist]

"Lucky."

If only his father would have blessed him with being dead. If only.

"Guess that means you're safe from visits during the family weekend this place likes to throw every once in awhile?"

"Everybody in my family is dead," he confirmed with a nod. "But my alpha might visit every now and again."

[flickofthewrist]

"Alpha?" It was a term that Flick knew but it didn't seem right in the context Isaac seemed to be suggesting. "That another name for your boss?"

[graveyardwolf.livejournal.com]

"Sort of. The alpha is the leader of my pack which is sort of like a family. People who protect each other," he explained. "I'm a werewolf, by the way."

Just getting that out there.

Flick's eyebrows went up at the sudden revelation but he didn't react otherwise.

"Well, you're a first for me," he finally said. "Only seen you guys in terrible movies. It usually doesn't work out for fellow werewolves."

Flick knew movies weren't real life though. "I'll try not to ask you about every stereotype in the book."

"We're not allergic to silver," he said. "And I don't turn into an actual wolf."

"What about howling at the moon?" Flick asked despite himself. "That one a lie too?"

[graveyardwolf.livejournal.com]

"I guess maybe if I'm in the mood," he said with a shrug. "But you could howl at the moon if you wanted to."

[flickofthewrist]

"I could," Flick agreed with a nod. "That wouldn't make me look crazy at all, though. Random guy out howling at the moon just because he can."

[graveyardwolf.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure people do worse on the full moon," he said. "Isn't that when there's more crime and people going to the hospital and stuff?"

[flickofthewrist]

"I guess that's the perception?" Flick shrugged. "But the same could be said for every single Friday the thirteenth or Halloween or whatever. People are fuck ups on a regular basis. On some days, the news just highlights it a lot more than usual."

"Point taken," Isaac said with a nod. "You're so full of wisdom, Mr. Sunshine."

[flickofthewrist]

"I live to serve, grasshopper," Flick said, nodding sagely. "More people should listen as dutifully as you. The world would be a lot less insane."

Or so he thought.
