Pyxis made a gruff noise and leaned against the railings. “Even us dead folk have to step out and get some fresh air every once and a while.” He told the kid, scrunching his nose. “It’s a town full of non-humans. May not be some perfect paradise that you thought it us, but every one of us is everywhere. Better get used to that.”

“Fresh air? For what? I thought you didn’t breathe,” Jay shifted his weight as he was clearly uncomfortable. “Alright, fair enough. I’m learning that.” he licked his lips that were suddenly dry. Thoughts of his first, bad encounter with a vampire kept playing in his mind. “You’ll have to forgive my nervousness, but the only other time I’ve met a vampire it attacked my pack. The smell of a vampire makes me remember that. I don’t like it.” he paused. “I guess I’ll have to get used to it.”

“That is also a choice, I assume,, and what a peaceful life that could be as well,” she bit her lip looking back to his apartment building before she peered to him again. “I hope so too, Jay, it really was very nice,” she smiled and nodded. “I shall find my way there soon, hopefully you will be working,” stepping back a bit she chewed her lip, before moving forward giving him a small hug. “Take care, love.”

Jay was surprised at the hug, but he was grateful all the same. He hugged her back, then let her go and smiled. “I work a lot. You’ll definitely see me,” he said with a nod. “I hope everyone ends up being as nice as you.”

Holly finally looked up, cursing herself for not being able to catch on who it was exactly. It was a well welcomed surprise. Slowly scooting over so he could sit with them she smiled down to Joanna. “She’s going to be just that, I have high hopes for her,” humming she nodded, looking up to him. “It really was, I live there too, it was a few doors down from my place, I never locked my doors so fast. Seems each day something happens that makes me question how safe the town is for Jo and I.”

“Yeah,” Jay looked down. “I’m starting to really wonder if this was a good idea, you know? I should have stayed in Massachusetts and found a pack there. There’s not even a pack here, and magic people are going crazy.” he shook his head. “Of course I don’t have enough money to move, but maybe that’s what I’ll work towards. I just narrowly escaped death once, I don’t want to deal with it again.”

Pyxis’ nose twitched and scrunched. He inhaled deeply and caught the overwhelming stench of dog, causing him to finally turn to look at what was behind him. He blinked, his eyebrow shooting up. Who the hell was that baby-looking kid. “’the hell’s asking?” The vampire grunted, sizing up the kid with a pair of blank eyes. “What are you, some kinda’ dog patrol? Sniffin’ out weird things in the dead of night?” Pyxis snorted, sipping his drink. “They call this place a free country, I’ll squat where I please.”

“Name’s Jay, if you really need to know.” he answered although he continued to keep his distance from the other, just watching. “No, I’m not. Is it a crime for someone to not be able to sleep? I just thought vampires spent most of their time in that Underground, or whatever. I didn’t expect to see one out here.” he rolled his eyes. “It is a free country. Excuse me for being apprehensive. This town isn’t exactly what was advertised to me.”

“I only hope it is true, though the way the Earth is going, I hope my next life is one that I will not know what is happening. Denial seems a fitting and maybe a nice tree or woodland creature would be fitting for me,” she mused, looking back to him. “It is no trouble really–” she peered around them, smiling. “We are here,” she nodded. “I guess it was a shorter walk then I thought, shame I was enjoying our talk.”

“It would be more peaceful, I’m sure,” Jay said with a shrug. “But I’d rather just move onto an after life and not come back.” he looked up at his apartment building and then looked at Calista. “Oh. Yeah, this was a nice walk. And a nice talk. I really hope we’ll get to talk again. I work at the diner, so you can probably catch me there some time.”

He shrugged, chuckling darkly for a second. “Yeah. I have no idea what I’m going to do about it. But I’ll figure it out eventually. No worries. I know hiding out in the woods might not be the best solution, but it’s what I’ve got for now. “ Kane shook his head at the mention of Holly “Oh, no. I don’t live with her. She wants me to but I just…I don’t want to. The main reason being I don’t feel comfortable with the baby in the house. I’m sure she’ll convince me eventually, but not now.”

“Right,” Jay said with a nod. “We do the best with what we have. That’s what my mother said.” he listened and tilted his head curiously. “Ah. You don’t feel you can control yourself around a child? Hm. I think you could, if you care enough for the child and the mother there will be a barrier there. Plus, you’ll always know they’re werewolves. You won’t attack someone who was in your pack, even if you don’t have entire control yet. Trust me, okay? It’s not like you’re rabid, or have lost your mind.” he smiled. “I grew up in a big pack. No one ever attacked anyone else inside the pack. We were family, you know? I think you’ll be okay. You just need more guidance.”

“Hey, it’s alright to be nervous around people you don’t know or that are different species than you. Hey I was so used to being around just witches but it honestly does just take some time.”She said before a warm smile appeared on her lips. “Let’s hope that it does. As for my sister well if she doesn’t change then I will try reason with her again, I’m much stronger than the last time.”

“Yeah? Well, that’s a comfort, actually,” Jay said with a nod. “Thank you for saying that.” he tilted his head a bit. “Yeah? Well,I’m glad you’re stronger. Just...I guess all you can do it keep getting stronger, huh?”

The worst part of it all- of being suddenly labeled as a villain with your name blasted onto everyone’s phones within quick hours was the bottomless pit that had formed in the center of Dante’s stomach. Every question, every glare and sneer, and every shove the hunters gave him pulled more of his insides into that pit. Never in Dante’s life had he felt such an incredible sense of dread over come him until that night. He’d spent hours pleading with people and telling them it wasn’t him, he was being a hundred percent honest. And yet, by the time he allowed to leave, he had begun to feel like he did have some kind of involvement.

Hell, Dante was afraid to step foot into his own home because that meant he’d have to walk by so many people who now probably thought he was trying to kill people and hurt everyone with nasty magic. He was hunched over at a sitting counter in a gas station on the edge of the Town Center, hood pulled low over his face in an attempt to hide himself.

Jay was walking home from a gig at a nearby cafe, but his thoughts were far from this moment. His thoughts were wandering to what had happened recently in Greyspire, and how it had been so close to where he was living. Ugh, this place was not as safe as he had been told it was.

He noticed an open gas station and decided to walk in and get a quick snack. He hadn’t gone shopping yet, and even though it was late he was hungry. He couldn’t sleep on an empty stomach. Of course as he walked in and saw the figure with the hood over his head in the corner, he hesitated. He could smell magic.

“...what are you doing?”

Holly loved her days off, what she didn’t really enjoy was the town seemingly at it again, accusing, judging, not being the town she was told it could be, and that had the werewolf on edge. Since Alec left, she hated to admit it but the loss of an alpha and the guidance he held over her, had the Beta slightly lost. The only thing keeping her together was her motherly instincts. Thus a park trip for her and Joanna was very much needed. At that current moment, Joanna and her had been at their spot in the park for about thirty minutes, Joanna finding entertainment on the blanket spread out, playing with her toys.

Moving to grab Joanna’s sunscreen, she chuckled as Joanna tugged on her cute pink floppy hat, pressing the sides to her cheeks, making a small goofy face. “Momma’s girl is such a goof,” she mused. Moving to rub the sunscreen on Joanna’s exposed skin. Watching the girl scream happily. When she went to put the sunscreen back in the back it gave the seven month old ample opportunity to toss her hat at the person passing by. “Oh– Sorry,” Holly murmured moving to grab the hat at the person’s feet. Tugging it back on Joanna’s head. “She’s being mischievous so it seems.”

Jay had been heading to a spot in the park that he had found was peaceful, and where he liked to play his guitar alone. He practiced there so that he sounded really good when he played in the bars and cafes. It was funny, though, because his way to his favorite spot was disturbed by a flying hat and a familiar duo.

“Oh, Holly,” Jay walked over and sat down, setting his guitar aside. “It seems like she is, yeah. Definitely going to be a feisty werewolf once she’s big enough.” he looked at Holly then. “So. What happened in Greyspire was creepy, huh? It was right near my apartment building.”

She hummed. “That is what we hope, what we tend to believe. At least some of us, there are some that adopted the organized religion aspect, we as creatures grow and take from our surroundings, but at the end of it all, we are creatures of the Earth and we take from it and learn from it, and mostly thrive from it, it is what magical creatures tend to do,” she smiled softly looking down. “I believe so, and no I do not have memories from my past life, just a feeling.”

“Huh,” Jay huffed as he listened to her speak on their religions, or beliefs. It was interesting. Jay couldn’t believe anything like that, but it was still interesting. “Well, I guess if you have a feeling then it must be true. Or possibly true.” he gave her a smile. “Thanks for telling me. I’m trying to learn new things.”

pyxisv:

Pyxis almost missed when the witchhunts in town was on easier things like vampires, or even werewolves. Once humans started thinking about going after other humans, social issues got too touchy in his opinion. The entire town was just too touchy. That was a good way to describe it. Too touchy and too antsy. Hell, the entire thing was putting him on his last nerve.

He just wanted to relax. Or blow off steam- or whatever it was humans did. A favorite spot to hide out at for all hours of the night had been the small bridge above a tiny river in some park near the Town Center. It was non-descript to him, the only thing that mattered was that it was empty at three in the morning. Pyxis had been sitting there for a good hour or so, watching the water and drinking a nice mix from a metal bottle that was two parts vodka and nths parts blood, when he smelled another person nearby.

“I’d keep on walkin’ if I were you,” he said, mumbling his words more than anything else. “I might start bitching and won’t stop.”

Jay was still struggling with nightmares. It had only been a few months since his entire pack was mercilessly destroyed before his own eyes. It was too real in his mind’s eye, so he couldn’t sleep most nights unless he got a poultice from one of the witch shops. Unfortunayely he didn’t tonight so he was left to wander the town instead. The comfort of the moon shining above him made him feel a little better.

He froze when he caught a strange smell, but a familiar one, and then heard a voice soon after. “Who are you?” he demanded but his voice wavered to show he was nervous. He had only seen a vampire once in his life and it had tried to kill a member of his pack, and was then destroyed by his alpha. He had no idea what to expect meeting one here alone. His heart was thundering in his chest and he just hoped the vampire couldn’t tell how scared he was.

“I did not but it was warranted,” she nodded. Giving him a small smile. Almost encouraging him to feel safe around her, not in a malicious way, but wanting to give the young werewolf a feeling of safety. “Oh gosh, well, the court I grew up in was very much like what you would see in Old Britain, Catholic and branches that broke off from it, but fae as a whole are very spiritual, the Earth is our friend, and we believe in spirits and such. I for one took a more Buddhist approach on things. Reincarnation is very common among us.”

Jay listened as he walked next to her, just holding the strap of his guitar case slung over his shoulder and trying to take in all the information. “Really? So, when you die you come back in a few years, or whatever?” he asked as he looked at her. That was definitely different than his own beliefs, but it was an interesting thought. “Do you remember who you were before, or do you come back as entirely different person? If you come back as someone different, how do you know reincarnation is even real?”
