Aeri stretched out her hand for the small dog to smell her, and then, decide for himself whether he would let her pet him or not. Mr. Pickles was a cute name. Not as cute as Frida Cat-lo, of course, but the journalist could consider herself biased because of her close relation to her own cat. “He’s adorable.” She chuckled. “Probably smells Frida all over me, but that’s okay, isn’t it, Mr. Pickles?” The oracle used the same voice she usually did when speaking to Frida as she started scratching behind the dog's ears. The tone went up as her voice level went down, as if she were talking to a child. “Oh, me? Nothing much. Just went out for a walk to clear my head.” Nothing out of the ordinary for a Saturday morning. “What about you? Are you his foster mama or are you on working hours?”

[fullmoonsky]

Skylar  smiled  when  Mr.  Pickles  suddenly  seemed  to  become  very  interested  in  sniffing  Aeri.  "His  mom  can't  take  care  of  him  anymore."  She  said  with  a  soft  sigh,  watching  as  the  chihuahua  enjoyed  his  little  ear  scratches.  He  really  was  very  good  for  a  chihuahua,  all  things  considered.  Perhaps  old  age  had  mellowed  him  out.  “But  he  cries  every  time  I  leave  him  alone  in  the  kennels.  So  I  bring  him  with  me  every  time  I  leave  the  office  for  the  day.  He's  spoiled,"  she  said  with  a  shrug.  Skylar  didn't  mind  being  the  one  to  spoil  him.  He  was  just  a  little  guy,  after  all.  "But  he's  a  good  boy.  He's  up  for  adoption  if  you  know  anyone.  Spread  the  word  and  all  that."

[freshcir]

"You got me, I stole my own car," she replied with raised hands before raising a brow. "Hey, I'm a little rusty but I still got it," she scoffed with a roll of her eyes - wanting to brag about how good she used to be at stealing cars but she figured it wasn't exactly a brag-able thing

[fullmoonsky]

"I  bet  your  house  keys  are  in  there  too,  huh?"  She  grinned,  dropping  her  cigarette  and  crushing  it  under  the  toe  of  her  boot.  The  entire  situation  was  rather  amusing.  When  it  happened  to  someone  else,  anyway.  She  glanced  over  her  shoulder  before  her  eyes  set  back  on  the  other.  "You  need  a  hand  or  what,  car  thief?"

[fatestln]

ellie   followed   after   skylar   without   a   word.   she   stayed   close,   trailing   just   a   few   steps   behind   skylar   as   her   sister   made   her   escape.   skylar   looked   like   she   was   about   to   come   apart   at   the   seams   and   she   couldn't   help   but   want   to   keep   her   together.   she   climbed   into   the   passenger   seat   and   shut   the   door   with   a   soft   click.   the   car   remained   off   —   no   radio   or   other   noise   —   just   the   growing   tension   in   the   air   between   them.   eliana   sat   with   her   hands   in   her   lap,   fingers   clasped   together   tightly   as   she   observed   skylar's   profile.   don't   be   mad. ellie   blinked.   her   voice,   when   it   came,   was   softer   than   the   air   around   them.   "i'm   worried   about   you,   sky,"   she   began,   her   voice   a   gentle   whisper.   "we've   spent   so   much   time   apart   already...i   don't   want   you   to   shut   me   out."   her   entire   life   eliana   finch   had   wanted   nothing   more   than   to   protect   her   siblings   and   it   was   a   task  that   she'd   failed   at   time   and   time   and   time   again.   however,   that   didn't   stop   ellie   from   desperately   wanting   to   bear   the   burdens   that   her   siblings   carried   with   them.   jasper,   maren   and   sky   —   all   three   of   them   carried   so   much   pain   and   hurt   and   while   skylar   hid   it   better   than   jasper   or   maren,   ellie   had   always   been   able   to   see   right   through   her   masks. "i   can   handle   it.   whatever   it   is   you   don't   have   to   carry   it   alone   anymore,   okay?"   ellie   reached   out   a   hand   and   placed   it   over   one   of   skylar's   own   on   the   steerling   wheel,   trying   to   gently   coax   her   into   releasing   her   grip.   "what's   going   on,   pup?"

[fullmoonsky]

Sky  allowed  her  hands  to  fall  off  the  wheel,  folding  them  in  her  lap  as  she  stared  straight  ahead.  She  spoke  with  a  certain  detachment.  Like  she  wanted  to  distance  herself  from  her  own  body.  After  all,  she'd  never  said  the  words  out  loud.  Avoidance  had  started  to  become  an  Olympic  sport  for  Skylar.  She  stared  down  at  her  own  nails,  bitten  down  to  the  nub  in  chipped  blue  and  green  nail  polish.  "I  stole  the  money.  It's  dirty  money."  She  said  the  words  as  if  it  was  just  as  simple  as  that.  But  it  was  far  from  simple.

"But  after  what  they  did  to  me...after  what  they  made  me  do..."  Her  voice  took  on  a  bitterness  and  the  anger  that  seemed  to  follow  her  around  everywhere  these  days  seemed  to  slip  through  a  bit.  "I  deserve  that  money.  And  I  get  it.  I  get  if  you  don't  want  to  move  with  me.  But  why  should  you  have  to  sleep  in  a  cramped  hotel  room when  I  can  help  take  care  of  us?  I  want  to  help."  Her  voice  cracked  at  the  end,  her  eyes  finally  meeting  her  sister's.  "I  don't  know  how  to  tell  you  what  I  need  to  tell  you,  El.  I  don't  want  you  to  look  at  me  differently.  I  don't  want  to  be  alone."

She  looked  away  again,  back  down  at  her  hands.  She  couldn't  tell  which  felt  worse.  The  shame  or  the  guilt.  "I  did  something  really  bad,  Ellie.  I  mean,  really  really  bad."

STATUS : closed LOCATION : portum veterinary hospital FEATURING : skylar finch @fullmoonsky

AS MUCH AS SAM WANTED TO ENJOY THE BONFIRE FESTIVITIES, worry still sat heavily in the back of his mind well after the last of the coals went cold. a walk in the surrounding forest would usually bring some peace of mind, but today he was on a mission to make sure the local wildlife wasn't reaping any of the consequences of the fireworks and balloons let off the evening before. much to his dismay he found someone sooner rather than later: a scraggly looking creature with plastic wrapped around its neck. it wasn't too interested in sam coming closer, but once he showed he posed no threat it let him scoop it up and make the way to portum veterinary hospital.

"excuse me? i found this friend, could you help them out?"

[fullmoonsky]

Skylar  set  the  phone  down,  her  eyes  widening  at  the  sight  of  the  shifter  with  an  opossum  in  his  arms.  Cats  and  dogs,  sure.  She  saw  those  on  the  regular.  But  it  was  always  an  interesting  day  when  someone  brought  in  something  a  little  less...  pet  like.  "What  do  we  have  here?"  She  walked  over,  leaning  over  the  counter  and  tilting  her  head  at  the  poor  scraggly  looking  thing.  It  was  wet  and  shaking,  but  it  didn't  seem  to  be  bothered  by  being  held.  Or  at  the  very  least,  trusted  that  he  was  about  to  be  helped.  "Oh  my  goodness.  Poor  little  guy.  Where  did  you  find  him?"

[avdaciter]

For the last couple of days, Aeri had been living in her head. Thoughts speaking louder and making the journalist get lost in words she wasn’t saying, but was thinking. About Ender, about Kanda, about Kai… and that morning it was no different. Leaning against a wall, silence engulfed her as she played with an old coin her halmoni had given her between her fingers. Only when she heard Skylar’s voice was that Aeri was brought to the present. “Hi, Sky.” The brunette smiled, watching the interaction between the vet and the chihuahua. “Who’s your new friend?”

[fullmoonsky]

"Oh.  Hey,  Aeri."  Skylar  lifted  up  her  head,  regarding  the  medium.  She  hadn't  exactly  been  in  the  best  shape  the  last  time  she  saw  Aeri.  And  frankly...neither  had  Aeri  for  that  matter.  Sky  still  felt  guilty  about  that.  But  she  happened  to  like  Aeri  —  it  was  good  to  see  her  again.  "This  is  Mr.  Pickles.  I'm  on  elderly  chihuahua  duty  today."  She  smirked,  holding  the  little  dog's  paw  and  making  him  wave  a  small  hello  at  Aeri.  "Say  hi,  Mr.  Pickles."  Mr.  Pickles  let  out  a  sneeze,  accompanied  by  the  biggest  yawn.  He  was  missing  some  teeth.  But  it  was  still  a  very  good  yawn.  "What  are  you  up  to?"

[scvntillas]

          the  kitten  was  staring  up  at  her.  its  eyes  were  wide  and  unblinking  ,  trying  to  decipher  the  situation  unfolding.  maren  reached  a  hand  down  in  the  small  box,  ignoring  the  nipping  of  teeth  and  scared  hissing.  it  was  so  small  it  fit  in  the  hand  of  her  palm.  maren  stared  at  her  sister  ,  eyes  wide  in  disbelief.  and  fear.  the  thing  in  her  hands  was  so  little  it  almost  felt  as  if  she  could  strangle  it  if  she  held  it  too  tight.  black  and  whispy  with  more  air  than  actual  substance.  a  small  meow  vibrated  against  her  skin.  "is  it—"  maren  cleared  her  throat  with  a  small  ,  broken  sound.  "is  it  mine  ?"

[fullmoonsky]

Sky  watched  Maren's  reaction  carefully,  a  hint  of  a  smile  touching  her  lips  when  her  sister  reached  inside  the  box  for  the  kitten.  "Of  course,  Mare.  That's  kind  of  the  surprise  part  of  it."  She  giggled,  her  eyes  softening  at  her  sister.  "She  doesn't  have  a  name  yet.  I  figured  you  could  do  that  part.  Her  mama  cat  rejected  her,  which  can  happen  sometimes  in  a  litter,  unfortunately.  She  needs  lots  of  loving.  And  I  thought...well,  you  need  lots  of  loving  too.  You  two  can  take  care  of  each  other."  She  measured  her  sister's  expression  with  a  hesitance,  her  voice  gentle  for  a  change.  "How's  that  sound?"

[freshcir]

@fullmoonsky

"Oh come on!" she said as she yanked at her car door, it obviously locked with her car keys being locked in her apartment. "I can't believe this, I swear to god," she groaned before looking around and taking the pin out of her hair. "I swear I was going to stop doing this," she muttered to herself as she began to pick at her car lock before feeling a pair of eyes on her. "You're probably wondering what I'm doing but I swear this car is mine"

[fullmoonsky]

Skylar was walking home after leaving work when she came across the medium. Now that was something the wolf hadn't seen in a long time. Portum was a little more on the safe side...generally speaking. Back home? Yeah, common occurrence. But here? Not so much. "Ha. That's what all the car thieves say, I bet." She gave the other a somewhat amused look as she took a drag of her lit cigarette. "Have you done this before? You're kind of terrible at it."

[scvntillas]

             maren   couldn't   help   but   giggle   ,   hearing   the   petulant   tone   of   her   older   sister's   voice.   it   had   always   sounded   like   that   when   she   didn't   immediately   get   her   way   and   it   felt   nice   to   know   that   that   hadn't   changed.   "i   can't   help   that   we   have   heightened   senses,   sky   !"   skylar   entered   the   trailer   (   such   a   different   vibe   from   last   time   )   and   maren   curiously   looked   at   the   box.   the   tone   shifted   slightly   and   maren   ducked   her   head   as   she   tried   to   process   what   skylar   was   saying.   "it's   not   your   fault   ,   skylar   ,"   she   mumbled   ,   "i   think   i   can   pretend   …   just   for   a   little   bit."   there   was   a   beat   of   silence   as   maren   slowly   opened   the   top   ,   then   the   tiniest   little   meow   trailed   through   the   trailer.   maren   looked   at   her   sister   with   wide   eyes.   "what—   skylar   ,   what   is   this   ?"

[fullmoonsky]

It's  not  your  fault.  Skylar  shrugged  her  sister  off,  not  wanting  to  focus  on  the  heavy.  She  felt  a  lot  of  guilt  when  it  came  to  Maren.  What  she  could've  done.  What  she  should've  done.  What  she  still  couldn't  do  for  her.  Emotional  availability  wasn't  exactly  Skylar's  strong  suit.  But  this?  This  she  could  do.  Even  as  a  kid,  Sky  had  gone  out  of  her  way  to  rescue  four  legged  friends.  She  had  been  especially  acquainted  with  the  duck  pond  near  their  house  growing  up.  She  wondered  if  Maren  remembered  that.  "What  do  you  think  it  is,  mare-bear?"  She  smirked,  giving  her  sister  a  knowing  look.  "The  cow  goes  moo.  What  goes  meow?"

[daluy0ng]

it didn't take much for the werewolf to have laon surrender like this, to give control to skylar, have her the way she would like, immediately there was comfort, and trust that she knew she would not break, and it has given her such bliss, as if her skin was being set aflame with ever touch and kiss she'd leave along her skin. the banshee suddenly lost the ability to form a thought, except the name of the woman who had crumble laon's defenses down without much effort.

hips arch up at every kiss she leaves, fingers tangled in her hair whilst she struggles to keep her legs apart, making space for skylar, careful enough not to hurt her, and as she was able to really get deeply lost into it, skylar pulls away, which makes laon sit up. "sky, what—" and before she knew it, the werewolf was running out, which made her scramble into grabbing her shirt and pair of shorts, running after the werewolf, still bare feet.

"s-skylar!" she runs out of her door, following after the werewolf, not a care in the world for her safety, on what this may be, she only cares if skylar is okay.

[fullmoonsky]

The thing about wolfing out, was that Skylar had always prided herself on how well she could control her wolf. She was good at being a wolf. Not that her father had ever noticed. Past the shifting pains and the nightmare that was the monthly full moon, midnight runs and hunts made her feel good. She wasn't so great at being a human. But being a wolf? Sometimes she felt like she was born for it. These days however, she was starting to feel like she wasn't good at either.

She was losing control more often. She was more emotional these days. So to shift in the middle of the day, against her own will — well, this wasn't very good for her self confidence. She ran out the back of Laon's house and into the woods as far out as her bare feet would carry her before stumbling and rolling down an incline of rocks and dirt that led to a stream of water below. By the time she had reached the bottom, she was in full wolf attire.

The russet colored wolf huffed and whined through her nose, curling in on herself by the stream. She wasn't hurt beyond a few cuts and scrapes she would feel in the morning. But she couldn't change back either. That feeling sucked. At least she still had her mind. That was something the full moon often couldn't afford her.

After leaving her bag unattended at the bar, Skylar noticed something missing when she returned. Something very important. Something that was going to make or break her evening. Something she had been looking forward to all day. "Listen well and listen good. Because I'm only gonna ask you this once. And maybe a few times after that if I feel like it. Did you or did you not eat the chicken wing I left in my purse? I'm not mad, I just want to know." The wolf leaned in close and resisted the urge to sniff their breath. But she would if it came down to it.

[fullmoonsky]

who: closed starter with @silkeared where: skylar's front stoop

"Why's there gotta be something wrong for me to eat an entire family sized tub of Neapolitan ice cream by myself? Did you ever stop to think that maybe for once, that means there's something actually right with the world? That maybe this is celebration ice cream and not my life is falling apart ice cream? It's summer. Since when is it a crime to have a sweet treat? And so what if I cut my own bangs two hours ago and dyed my tips pink? I happen to think I look very cute. What? You don't think it's cute? Why are you looking at me like that? Stop looking at me like that!"

[fullmoonsky]

who: closed starter for @avdaciter where: anywhere that is an inappropriate place for a dog

Skylar leaned down and pulled an elderly chihuahua out of her bag. "Hiiiii, baby." She cooed, baby voice and all. "Look at you and your perfect little spots. Yes, you are so perfect and have never done anything wrong in your whole entire life, isn't that right sweet baby?" She paused. Sniffed. "Did you just fucking piss in my bag you little shite?" Another pause. A deep breath. She brought the chihuahua up to eye level and spoke to him again before planting a kiss on the top of his head. "That's alright sweet baby. I too would pee wherever I wanted if I was bag sized. Yes, I would. Sweet baby."

[fatestln]

ellie   watched   skylar   carefully,   perhaps   too   carefully.   not   with   suspicion,   butwith   that   quiet,   stubborn   kind   of   love   that   older   sisters   are   notorious   for.   the   kind   that   sees   past   every   shrug   and   too-easy   smile.   the   way   skylar   looked   away,   the   tension   in   her   shoulders,   the   way   her   hands   curled   into   fits.   ellie   knew   what   it   looked   like   when   someone   was   trying   to   carry   something   alone.   she   exhaled   slowly   and   stepped   closer,   toeing   the   line   between   gentle   and   firm. "i   know   you   can,"   ellie   said   quietly.   "and   i   know   you   want   to,   but   sky.   i   mean,   money   doesn't   just   fall   from   the   sky.   not   money   like   this.   and   i   can't   pretend   i   don't   see   that   something   about   it's   eating   at   you."   she   glanced   around   at   the   little   house   that   somehow   already   smelled   like   home   and   then   looked   back   at   her   sister.   she   tried   to   see   not   just   as   the   baby   she   used   to   carry   on   her   hip,   but   as   someone   who   had   lived   a   life   that   she   knew   nothing   about.   "i   love   that   you   want   to   do   this   for   us,   but   if   you're   carrying   something   dark   to   make   this   happen,   i   need   to   know."   ellie   reached   out   and   grabbed   skylar's   hand,   squeezing   it   gently.   "i'd   rather   sleep   in   a   tent   with   you   than   live   in   a   house   built   on   something   that's   bleeding   you   dry."

[fullmoonsky]

Skylar pulled her hand away from her sister's, shifting on her feet as she debated what she should do. Deflecting and attacking seemed like a good option. It was her go-to move, usually. But not with her older sister. Eliana had a habit of seeing right through her. Something that was jarring to someone like Skylar, who spent a long time building this very big wall around herself. Her arms crossed over her chest instead, eyes darting towards the door like she might make a run for it. Another fine option. "Fine. But I'm not doing this here." She turned on her heels to make her way out the door, expecting Ellie to follow.

Down the front steps, Sky made a b-line for the car and sat herself in the driver's seat. Her hands wrapped around the wheel, knuckles going white like she was considering driving away and leaving her sister behind. But she didn't. She didn't even turn on the car. She just waited for her sister to get into the passenger seat and stared straight ahead. "Don't be mad." Her words were slow. Deliberate and controlled. She was anything but. She'd never said the words out loud before. And she didn't know where to start.

[daluy0ng]

all laon's body and mind wanted to do is surrender, and surrender she did with skylar's touch, legs wrapped around her waist, as if there was still distance between them, a pull the banshee finds herself succumbing to. skylar was that, such strong feeling that she's never felt before, and it should scare her, but for the first time in her life, instead of running away, she finds herself crawling towards it, welcoming it, embracing it.

for the first time in her life, fear wasn't in her mind, it was just...yearning, craving, wanting, needing skylar. "i only tell the truth, sky..." she murmurs, and before she knew it, she was being carried towards the direction of her room. she squealed at the sudden action, wrapping her arms and legs around the werewolf. any last words? "take what's yours, skylar....please..." she bites her lip, body already trembling with so much want whilst she quickly sits up to take off the shirt she was wearing.

she pulls her close for a kiss, warmth spreading all over her as she once more had her legs around skylar's waist, afraid that she was going to disappear at any moment in time. fingers tangled along her hair, laon whispers against her lips, "you don't fucking know the things you do to me, sky..." she murmurs. "i—i ache for you in all ways possible." the words slip from the banshee's lips without any hesitation.

[fullmoonsky]

Skylar's expression grew serious as Laon yet again encouraged the wolf to take what was hers. All hint of teasing gone, she could feel her hunger for the banshee grow. It wasn't so long since they had been in bed together. But this...this felt different. She was different. Sky had never wanted someone this badly. "Let me take the aching away, then." Sky breathed, fervently returning the kiss with a certain neediness. Her fingers dig into the skin at Laon's hips as they lay kissing, somewhat tangled up in each other — and Laon's sheets.

Her kisses made their way downwards, along Laon's jaw and back into the crook of her neck where her scent was strongest. Sky could feel the heat rising in her body as her lips made her way to their desired destination, hotter and hotter until she could hardly bare it at all. She stopped at Laon's belly button, clasping a hand over her own mouth and letting out a small sound of pain. Her eyes met Laon's for just a moment. Her usual hazel colored eyes glowing a bold gold and orange color now. She rolled off of Laon suddenly, hitting the floor with a thud. She could feel her canines extend in her mouth

Here? She was going to turn here? "Oh, fuck!" She growled, pain shooting up her spine in an all too familiar way. It couldn't be a full moon. Could it? She'd just had a full moon! What had it been? Two weeks? And it was barely the middle of the day! Skylar scrambled to her feet and darted out the door without giving Laon a second glance, her feet taking her out the back door in a rush to get away from Laon. The wolf was taking over and it wasn't going to be pretty.

[scvntillas]

          maren  had  barely  gotten  home  before  the  angry  roar  of  skylar's  car  appeared  in  front  of  her  trailer.  she  felt  an  odd  sense  of  anticipation  ,  mostly  because  skylar's  excitement  seemed  genuine.  she  had  clearly  planned  something  that  she  was  convinced  maren  would  love  ,  and  it  made  maren  giddy  to  think  that  she  was  getting  a  surprise  from  her  sister.  for  a  moment  she  mourned  the  loss  of  their  relationship  ,  a  tether  that  was  severed  because  of  a  mistake  she'd  made.  but  maren  pushed  it  aside  as  she  saw  sky's  wide  smile.  she  was  carrying  a  box  under  her  arm  and  maren  sniffed  curiously  and  her  heart  started  beating  faster  when  she  recognised  it  as  something  familiar.  "okay  ,  come  in."  she  hurried  to  open  the  door  and  urged  skylar  to  get  inside.  "w-what  do  you  have  in  the  box  ?"  she  asked  ,  legs  curled  up  under  her  as  she  sat  down  on  her  bed.

[fullmoonsky]

"No  sniffing,  that's  cheating."  She  squished  her  nose  up  at  her  sister  as  she  walked  through  the  open  door,  smiling  once  she  was  inside.  She  set  the  box  down  beside  Maren  and  sat  at  the  foot  of  the  bed,  nudging  it  towards  her.  "It's  your  surprise,  silly."  She  kept  a  hand  over  the  box  and  gave  her  sister  a  hesitant  look.  "I  know  it's  not  your  birthday  or  anything,  Mare.  But  I  would  really  appreciate  it  if  we  could  pretend  for  a  little  bit.  I've  missed  a  lot  of  birthdays."  Something  like  guilt  passed  over  Skylar's  expression.  But  the  look  was  gone  just  as  quickly  as  it  came,  an  excited  smile  spreading  itself  across  her  face  instead.  She  pulled  her  hand  back,  both  hands  landing  in  her  lap  now.  "Alright,  go  on  an  open  it  then!"
