So you're staying we just resign ourselves to staying here? [that is not a question. it's a statement]

[shortsighted]

No, we help people until it's time to go. People do leave.

[alphawoof]

That's idealistic of you.

[shortsighted]

No—no it's not. I know people leave because someone told me. And helping people ... that's not exactly hard to do. We're werewolves. That's something that we're able to handle.

[alphawoof]

Let's just get this over with.

[puts a hand on his shoulder]

[shortsighted]

Is that your way of telling me "no, Scott"? Because ... what, we can't do anything unless it's what you think we should do?

[alphawoof]

There's nothing to do.

[shortsighted]

People were hurt all over the place in October! You could smell it. There are other werewolves here, and don't you think it's strange that they want to be in my pack instead of yours?

[alphawoof]

You're talking about Jackson.

[shortsighted]

Other people trust me. Other werewolves trust me. And it's not even a pack thing.

[alphawoof]

That's not usually how it goes, Scott.

[shortsighted]

Yeah, actually, it is. You're so stuck on trying to make this all about you having a pack, about having power ...

[alphawoof]

No, I mean werewolves don't like each other. We form packs and families, but we fight. You just can't trust someone because they're a werewolf too.

[shortsighted]

No, I'm pretty sure that's just you. That isn't how it has to be. But that explains a lot.

[shortsighted]

I mean, we're kind of like dogs, right? Dogs don't always fight. Actually, they usually don't.

[alphawoof]

Wolves, Scott. Wolves always fight.

[shortsighted]

I dunno, I don't feel like fighting anyone.

[alphawoof]

Fine. Let's kiss.

[shortsighted]

Okay.

[alphawoof]

[okay fine. grabbing him by the shoulder and pulling him closer and just sort of going in for it.





...

yeah well maybe it's not as bad as he thought]

[shortsighted]

[as scott is the protagonist of a teen show about boys taking off their shirts (and turning into werewolves), he is not a bad kisser]

[alphawoof]

[this may be going on a little longer than it should]

[shortsighted]

[well, Scott doesn't know how long they're supposed to kiss, so ...]

[alphawoof]

[stepping back and looking more thoughtful about this then he should look]

[shortsighted]

You're good, right?
