classic doctor who: the doctor and the master have some sort of a complicated relationship. they were once friends, now they are rivals. every second writer wants to make them brothers

modern doctor who: soo the nature of their relationship is definitely something more than just ex-friends... they have a certain tension that we love to explore. every writer ships them

doctor who wilderness era: yeah you got it right they fucked. OBVIOUSLY

Hunger

[awakenedsalamander]

I’ve been thinking about the First Change (specifically in Werewolf: The Forsaken, though I know this will still be relevant to Apocalypse), and I can’t help but feel that of all the kind of “crossing the threshold experiences” in CofD— you know, the Embrace, Awakening, the Bargain— there’s something uniquely compelling about it.

I mean, you get a lot of the same beats. A supernatural world gets revealed, an unknown history unearthed, the character forever changed, all that. But it’s a little bit different, because for a werewolf it’s not really a transformation imposed from the outside, but rather a realization emerging from the inside. A werewolf is not made, but born.

And so for all the horror of your quicksilver flesh, the opening of new keener senses, the discovery of the strange and terrible spirit world that awaits you, there’s also got to be this feeling of “Oh… so that’s what I am.” Maybe it’s a good feeling, maybe it’s an awful one, but it’s finally the truth.

It goes for both those raised steeped in the lore of the Uratha and the Shadow, and those who weren’t. In the former case, you finally get to experience, for better or worse, the power and fury of the werewolves you’ve grown up dedicated to. You are the same kind of monster as them. Did you aspire to be this? Did you fear them? Did you dream about the wilds, the spirits? Did you ever wonder if under your skin, the Wolf was waiting? Now it’s all yours.

And for those who had no idea, does it finally feel right? Does the need to hunt, the heritage of Moon and Wolf, and the realization of the mad, invisible forces that shape the world make you feel that you have a purpose after all? Or instead, do you feel as lost and hopeless as ever? You thought you might be special maybe?, You are— you are a sacred killing thing, and you will never be anything else.
