These masks continue to be a pain in the ass, huh?

But I guess the alternative is being laid up in bed sick — which I don't recommend, in case you're feeling brave, because seeing the people who took off their masks isn't inspiring any faith here. As for me, I'm needing a little break from travelling around down there in all that questionable toxin. Not exactly my cup of coffee, you know? Prefer more open roads, more green and, uh. An ocean I can smell and not go into coughing fits over.

Maybe I'll just spitball some stuff to pass the time while I question what I'm eating from these kitchens? I'm feeling nosy. Call it an acquired skill set, being nosy. Back in the other place I was trapped in, I mostly gathered information about our bestiary; monsters from all kinds of worlds would fall into the world with us, and I did my fair share of fighting some pretty rough creatures. Including the killer rabbits that would try to sabotage my garden. They're small, fast, and aim for the jugular, FYI.

Anyway, pick a number, any number —

1. Favorite fairy tale, ghost story, or piece of folklore.
2. Favorite thing about the other worlds you've been to? (Least favorite, too, if you're feeling like getting it off your chest? I'm a crappy psychiatrist, fair warning.)
3. Ever run into people who know you from a book, movie, or game? Or, uh... manga?
4. War games — which do you prefer, and why?
5. Magic in your world: real or fiction?

I figure I'm being totally transparent, but I'm a big fan of information gathering. But it's also... actually really nice to be in one place long enough to get to know people. How often do you have the chance to learn about alternate universes? Small pluses.

... That's a little dark.

Someone getting eaten is your favorite part?

[bb_wolf]

And the lack of lynch mob after. Yes.

[collegedropout]

Er... Okay.

Sounds like you need either some new stories or a good therapist.

[sam is usually not so blunt but really you like people getting eaten by wolves..............]

[bb_wolf]

I know most of the stories and I am quite happy with how I am.

Would you rather I say Snow White and Rose Red, about a pair of girls who do their best and end up cursed and split apart? Or maybe Beauty and the Beast, where a witch curses an orphan prince for not being polite with eternal monstrosity unless he can make someone love him when he can't love himself?

[collegedropout]

I don't know, do you enjoy that they're all miserable?

Or is a lack of a lynch mob a usual thing you check-mark off your list?

[bb_wolf]

Snow's a good friend of mine.

And yes. It is. I'm not a big fan of lynch mobs.

[collegedropout]

... Oh.

You're friends with -- storybook figures. She's real, too?

[bb_wolf]

Fairytale. Fable.

She's a Fable.

Anyway, I say good friend. I'm not good at friends. She worries when I get stabbed or shot and doesn't mind being seen in public with me.

[collegedropout]

Yeah, I've met people like her.

... Both good friends and people from fairy tales.

So then which one are you? Or should I use the clues given.

[bb_wolf]

I already told you who I am.

He was delicious.

[collegedropout]

I... figured, yeah.

Refresh my memory. What did he do to deserve getting eaten, again?

[bb_wolf]

I ate him because I was hungry and he was silly enough to be out by himself late at night, knowing there was a big, bad wolf on the prowl.

[collegedropout]

[Oh, great, someone he'd hunt.]

You're not planning on eating anyone here, are you?

[bb_wolf]

I haven't eaten sentient beings in many centuries. Four? Probably about that. Closest my food gets to sentience is Chinese take out that's been left too long.

[collegedropout]

Good.

[It feels wrong, to let this guy get away with killing an innocent kid who was just out on his own. But if this is a case of a man who was a wolf — christ, he doesn't know. A big bad wolf is just an animal, right? Doing it's thing? Still something he'd expect to be shot down, if it comes after humans often.

He runs a hand over his mouth, sighing.

Goddamn gray areas.

He'll gank him if he tries anything against the people here, then.]

I wouldn't have put big bad wolf and chinese in the same sentence before now. Thanks.

[bb_wolf]

He could try and do something about it, but Bigby would defend himself and it could get messy for Sam. But he's honest, he doesn't eat sentient things anymore.


Hey, I still got to eat.

[collegedropout]

Well... Chinese is preferable to someone's arm.

[bb_wolf]

I suppose so.

As I say, I haven't anything sentient in centuries. Despite Colin tempting me with all that fat bacon on him.

[collegedropout]

You're not licking your chops at some guy here named Colin are you?

Because that's not a good social skill to have.

[bb_wolf]

No. Friend back home. Guess he's a friend. He's a pig.

Told you. Don't eat sentient things anymore.
