[madcuriosity]

More than a friend? What is she then?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

[ Scott wants to say she's his anchor but that's hard to explain. Plus he'd have to tell Alice he's a werewolf. ]

We're in a relationship. [ He adds after a pause: ] We love each other.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

OH! That's lovely! She's really very nice. I hope you two have a wonderful courtship!

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

Thanks! It's a, um, pretty great courtship... minus the death threats. And death. [ Awkward pause. ] It's complicated.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Death... threats?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

Yeah... Her family doesn't like me very much.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Why not, you've been very pleasant to me so far and you seem very nice.

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

Thanks, but that doesn't really matter to them. I'm... different.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

How are you different? And everyone is different, except perhaps identical twins, and even they are different in some ways.

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

I'm cursed. I can turn into something that could kill people if I don't control it... But not here. I can't do it here since the gods took it away.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Oh! [Eep! She bites her lip.] What... is it you turn into? A big scary monster?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

More like an ugly, hairy, claw-y monster. I don't get any bigger.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Oh ah... would this "monster" happen to be a wolf?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

...Half a wolf. Like a wolfman. I saw a woman who could turn into a whole wolf but I don't know how she did it... I would have asked but she was dead. [ Read: murdered. ]

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Oh... w-well you have control of it, don't you?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

I do... thanks to Allison. Thinking about her helps control myself during a full moon.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Well, that's very good then. And all the better Miss Allison makes you feel better when it all happens.

Speaking of Miss Allison, she and I are going to have high tea tomorrow! Would you care to join us?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

Yeah, I'm not sure how I'd handle it without her...

That sounds nice. I'd love to come. Thanks for the invite.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Well, if she makes you all better, shouldn't her family want you around her more often?

Not at all! I'm happy to do it!

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

[ If only Allison's parents thought that way. ] They'd rather I just stay away from her.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Well... I... do understand why they might say that but... does she love you too?

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

Yeah, totally. But her family have been hunting people like me for generations.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Hunting! But you're a person!

[Audio]

[mccallmemaybe]

I think they probably see me more as a monster than a person.

[Audio]

[madcuriosity]

Then they're not very nice people.
