Arrival broadcast!

[bb_wolf]

Who: Bigby Wolf and ALL OF YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Marsiva (who knows where it will go)
When: ... now?

[The broadcast begins before he's really awake.

He is a scruffy man of difficult to determine age, wearing black pants, a white (ish) shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a black tie that seems redundant since it's loose and his shirt isn't buttoned to the collar anyway.

He comes awake with a deep inhale and eyes flying open, flicking around him. They're perfectly normal brown eyes that lock onto the communicator fast.

Rolling from the bed, he vanishes from view. There's some muttered cursing, sneezing and then the click of a lighter.

When he comes back into view, the cigarette is tucked into his mouth with ages old familiarity.]

I better be able to fucking get more cigarettes on this tin can.

Comments

[Back home, the incentive would be 'do it or else' but he doesn't have that reputation here. No one knows who he is or what he can do.]

Fuck. I don't have much to offer in way of incentive other than 'don't be a fucking dickhead and make people smell your stink'.

[incousinswithyou]

So much for the 'fun' part.

[bb_wolf]

I'm not the type of guy you take into the bathroom with you.

[incousinswithyou]

[that's new. If anything, you've piqued her interest.]

No? Then what type of guy are you?

[bb_wolf]

Hm.

[Grendel would call him a fucking monster. Snow would call him rough but well meaning. Crane would call him that frustrating animal wearing a man's skin.]

One who takes showers by himself.

[incousinswithyou]

[that's another quiet laugh from Michiru]

You've made your point quite succinctly.

[a genial smile] I'm Kaioh Michiru. It's nice to meet you.

[bb_wolf]

Bigby Wolf.

Your name sounds Japanese.

[incousinswithyou]

It is, and I am. You'll find many types of people here.

[her ability to sense aliens from outside her solar system is nigh useless here, where everybody is from another dimension]

[bb_wolf]

Yeah? Sort of used to that where I'm living. New York City is a melting pot of diverse and weird.

[incousinswithyou]

[slight headtilt]

I hadn't realized New York City was as varied as this place.

[bb_wolf]

Well, maybe not as varied as this place. But still varied.

[Especially Fabletown and the Homelands.]

[incousinswithyou]

[well, considering that you're the first person she's met with an ability like that, she's going to assume you're not talking about run-of-the-mill human immigrants.]

Then you'll probably have an easier time adapting than some of us.

[bb_wolf]

You live long enough and rough enough, you learn to roll with the blows.

[Or bite their faces off.]
