Eddie

Eddie Jacobs, 26 year old bookstore owner, he/him/his, werewolf

God eddie hated succubi. Not that he had met any of them beyond Kali fucking Young. He didn’t know how she managed to dig up dirt on him, but she had it, and Eddie didn’t want her following through on her threats. So here he was, standing at the elevator, wating for someone to walk by. “Hey, um, this is going to sound kind of weird, but would you want to get married? like, now?”

‘‘I hope you have a really fucking good reason for bothering me right now.’’ June sighed as she pulled her book off her face. ‘‘Can this wait? I’m obviously busy.’‘ 

Eddie hated talking to people some days. And that went double when the person he had to talk to was the attractive owner of the building who could probably turn him into a tree or something equally greek myth worthy. But, some things had to be done, and here he was, approaching juniper selene by the pool. “Erm, I think one of the residents had a bit of a.. magic flare up? there um, some sort of tree growing up  out of the eight floor library. I took the books out of the way so they wouldn’t get damaged -” because what else would he have done, “ But the tree is. There”

“I’m not laughing at you, I promise!” Yochi cupped her hands in front of her face, trying to keep her grin somewhat contained. “I’ve done the same thing! Okay, I was… a bit smaller. Not much, because I actually haven’t grown all that much but you know what I mean. But no one is complaining about that tuches, I promise!”

She grimaced. “I’d offer you my hoodie. But I don’t think it will fit.”

Eddie gave the girl a wary look, nose flaring discreetly as he searched for her scent. Werewolf, that would explain it. “I haven’t accidentally shifted since I was seventeen, but of course today is the day some... rabble rouser decides to start shi- stuff, and wont leave until the teeth come out.” He responded, catching himself before he could actually swear. “I’m good thanks. I’ve already had five soccer moms try and offer me things of their kids that clearly wouldn’t fit” And boy, had that been an awkward thirty minutes of having them “browse” while eyeing him like a piece of meat

Usually Eddie was good at making sure he kept extra clothes everywhere, nearly always having one change of outfit on hand for if he shifted without stripping down first. But he had taken his emergency shop outfit home to wash it last week and forgotten to bring it back, which lead to his current predicament. He had been forced to shift when a fire fae got insulted and started sending off sparks on the second floor, his wolf form necessary to get the young girl the hell out of his shop before it lit on fire. But the shift had been so sudden his clothes hadn’t survived, and all he had left was a pair of old and slightly ragged jeans he had almost forgotten about. Normally he would have just closed up to go get a shirt (and some boxers) but he was expecting a shipment of books that he had to sign for at any moment. So here he was, sat behind his desk and trying to pretend like nothing was wrong. Feeling someone’s gaze on him, he sighed heavily. “It’s a long story, don’t laugh”

“No, I’ve … never heard of that.” Jax said. “Good to know you’re not trying to roll a doobie out of a tea bag, I don’t think that would end very well for you. Or it could but… You know. I’m not much into that.”

He looked down at his hands with a frown. “A cake. Did you smell that on me?”

“Nah, got that brand of stupid out of me in high school” Eddie responded, with a laugh. “Sides, doesn’t do much to me unless I eat edibles, and those always taste bad to me.” He shrugged, unconcerned. He wasn’t exactly the type to use drugs, but he was from a rural farm town and california. No one actually cared about weed there.  At the question, he nodded, tapping the side of his nose briefly. “Nose never lies. Besides, my packmate bakes all the time, I can sniff it out easy now days.”

Alistair grinned widely at the person beside him, brimming with excitement. “I can’t wait for tomorrow. I’m going back to Cali for the week to visit my parents. It’s been ages since I last saw them! I bet they got our head chef to cook up something really good,” he said happily. “Just between you and me, she’s an even better cook than Lucas.”

Eddie couldn’t help but perk up at the mention of California, interested at the name of his former home. “I didn’t know you were from there” He responded, leaning back. “What part?” At the mention of his packmate, Eddie snorted, shooting the blonde a disbelieving look. “You know im going to tell him you said that, right? And no one is a better cook that him. Not that I’ve met at least”

Ah yes, the scared girl from the elevator. Eddie was a little bit surprised that she wasn’t trying to run away, as she always did on the elevator. He smirked at her words, moving to the side slightly, before addressing her. “By all means, don’t let me stop you” He responded with a laugh, before offering his hand. “Name’s Eddie by the way. And you’re the girl who gets off at four, right?”

now they felt RUDE. sighing internally,, artemis decided they would STAND THEIR GROUND. what kind of princess ran when the going got tough? a BAD one. besides,, he didn’t seem that bad — just abnormally tall,, with eyes d a r k e r than the darkest night — and lips REDDER than blood,, curved into a very intimidating smirk. oh poseidon,, was he a VAMPIRE? struggling to find their voice,, it came out as SQUEAKY and timid. 

                      ❝ that’s me! apartment thirty seven! ❞

silently cursing themself to the seventh circle of hell,, artemis dipped their head to the ground. what if he was a murderer? rose gardens was a sanctuary to ALL,, right? oh great, now you’re dead. GOOD GOING, ARTEMIS.

Eddie didn’t need his nose to smell the fear that was coming off of her, it was clear enough from her behaviour. But he couldn’t turn the sense off, and so he merely wrinkled his nose at the sent, giving his head a sudden and rough shake to clear it. “Nice to know” He responded, before tilting his head as he looked at her. He had let the scent of nerves and fear that rolled off her in the elevator pass for ages, but now he was curious. “Can I ask you a question? Why are you so afraid of me? Too many stories about the big bad wolf?”

jax-alexander:

“You’re literally smoking green tea?” Jax asked. He couldn’t help it, it was at least a little bit ridiculous. He wiped his hands on his jeans, trying to make sure the last of the cake batter was off before he crossed his arms. “Where did you get the idea to start something like that?”

“Yeah, they’re green tea cigarettes, you’ve never heard of them?” Eddie asked, arching an eyebrow. “They’re pretty popular back out west, and over seas. Hard as hell to get here, but still a hell of a lot cheaper than tobacco ones” He responded, shrugging as he took another drag. “Tastes just as bad, but whatever. What are you baking?”

[eddie-jacobs-blog]

“Don’t look at me like that” Eddie told the bystander, taking another slow drag before releasing a breath of smoke. “I can give myself cancer if I feel like it” He added, face blank, before cracking into a smile. “Nah. just fucking with you. They’re green tea, I use them when I get cravings. Kicked the habit years back, but I hate the holidays, and stress makes me itch for nicotine.”

lucascantrell:

“Come on Eddie, you know that’s just the moon talking,” Lucas pointed out, lightly punching the other were in his arm, “Besides, I don’t think I’m quite your type, so don’t try and start something we’ll both regret.” He cocked his head to the side slightly, “Actually, I’m glad I found you; heard you were stalking the halls and figured I’d ask if you wanted to go for a run or something to try and burn off this energy. Something tells me you’re as antsy as I am to get the hell out of here, after all.”

“You don’t know my type Lucas, maybe I like brunette werewolves.” Eddie responded automatically, before shaking his head. “Christ, you’re right. A run sounds great” He said thankfully, giving the other a slight smile. ”I think I like it better when I go feral for one night. This whole week long moon hangover thing is throwing me off” He admitted, shaking his head slightly. “Jesus, I feel like I’m fucking Kali or something the way my self control is shot”

artemisoceania:

artemis was oh no. it was THE GIANT. they forced a smile onto their face before lifting their head to meet his gaze. and what a lift it was,, they felt TINY in comparison. when attempting to slide past clearly wouldn’t work,, they realised they would be FORCED to speak. wow,, that was something they never thought they’d say.

                       ❝ good afternoon,, sir. if you’d just excuse me. ❞ 

smiling politely,, they counted their lucky stars that he wasn’t going in the direction of the elevator. that’d make for another awkward ride.

Ah yes, the scared girl from the elevator. Eddie was a little bit surprised that she wasn’t trying to run away, as she always did on the elevator. He smirked at her words, moving to the side slightly, before addressing her. “By all means, don’t let me stop you” He responded with a laugh, before offering his hand. “Name’s Eddie by the way.

cornered-baby:

Baby had grown to enjoy the nights. It was either that or he was going to have a tough rest of his existence. Still, clear nights were his favorite. When the moon was clear and bright and lit up the grounds, he could pretend it was the sun sometimes. He had been outside, leaning against one of the walls as he tried to stargaze. It was harder than he had assumed it would be, constellations were not as clear cut as the books made them seem. He had just ended his shift in the front desk and he still had the uniform on, the cold air not affecting him. He turned with a small look of confusion to hear another voice. “Hi? Um, you lost sir? I’m off the clock but I could still help if you need something.”

Eddie laughed slightly, shaking his head. “No, no, I’m not lost. Just saw you out here, haven’t really actually seen you away from the desk much before. Figured I could really introduce myself properly” He responded with a grin. “You’re new here, aren’t you? Or, well, newer” He asked, head tilted. Eddie had been at the gardens for a few years, but outside of the other wolves, he didn’t know many of the newer arrivals, or those that didn’t live on his floor.

jax-alexander:

Jax paused, and stepped back to turn and face the other man. Well, the moon certainly did have its interesting effects on everyone. It would be interesting in the least, and he raised an eyebrow at the man. 

“And hello, to you too.” He said, staring at him. “Did you want something?”

Eddie watched as the other man turned, smirking slightly at his question. “Well, your number would be a good place to start” He responded, internally screaming. Oh god, the moon made him so out of line. Eddie was fully expecting to get punched for trying to flirt with a stranger

[eddie-jacobs-blog]

The moon felt like an itch under his skin, driving Eddie wild even though the moon was no longer full. Normally the two days on either side were bad, but so far, the entire week leading up to the super moon had been bad, and he wasnt expecting much from the week following. And so he paced, up and down the halls of the main building, and around some of the building outside. Only some though, as apparently a dragon had claimed one of the northern ones, and had some very creative threats for him when he got to close to the property. They had been cute though. As was the person in front of him, he realized, pausing. “Hello there”

[eddie-jacobs-blog]

“Yes, I know this is weird” Eddie agreed, sighing as he shifted the plates in his arm. “But I was brought up in the midwest, stress cooking is in my blood. I made four lasagnas and enough french onion soup for eighteen people, and yes, I am aware I am a walking math problem right now. Do you want food or not?” He asked, hoisting the food he was offering.

jason-on-the-hunt:

Jason let out a little scream and fell backwards a little in shock when the wolf suddenly turned into a person. “Jesus Christ,” he swore. “Do you just enjoy scaring the shit out of people?”

Eddie bit back the giggle that wanted to escape at the vampires screech, his natural instincts to be a little shit rising to the surface. At the brunette question, he shrugged, grinning faintly. “Yeah, pretty much. But really, aren’t you supposed to have a great sense of smell? You couldn’t tell I wasn’t a natural wolf?”

alistair-leighton:

Alistair stroked his chin thoughtfully. “I guess I’ve never really thought about it before. Huh. Maybe I should consider reading one of those pamphlets you had.”

“Dont bother, they’re basically just lists of the different species, and only the common ones really.” Eddie said dismissively, head tilted as he thought, before lighting up. “We do have a section on rare species upstairs though, come on” He said excitedly, moving out from around the counter and towards the stairs with a sign declaring “Restricted Access”
