Nate O'Cuinn

Nate, 24. A werewolf by birth, a jester by nature. The stars were burning so bright, the sun goes down at midnight, I say we lose control..

Qhuinn raised an eyebrow, limping over to the bars to fix him with a look. “I was visiting someone.. And no thanks, I already have one right now and you seem like you’d be a handful..” Crossing her arms, she sniffed the air around him, trying to piece together why he’d be in there. She caught the scent of blood, but wasn’t sure who’s it was. “Nate..cut the shit, what’s going on?”

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Nothing. Like I said, I'm waiting for my mistress to come get me. Or for the beast to tear through the bars. I dunno, take a pick." Nate looked at her with a glance; his face was a mask of indifference and his eyes gave nothing away. "I've been blacking out again, Qhuinn."

"Tell me about you, about your life." she said, tilting her head. "I feel like I know nothing about your time before here…" Her hand reached up to his hair and started to play with is softly as she planted kisses down his neck.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

Holding her close, he sat up against the headboard and sighed. "Where do I begin?" Nate chuckled nervously, stroking the small of her back as he thought.

"I was born somewhere in the circus. I think it was the fortune teller's tent, but I'm not too sure. My mum died when she gave birth, so I was pretty much an orphan. I was taught, fed and clothed by the circus. In return, I worked as a ticket collector and a jester, when I grew older." He sobered after a while, sighing. "They...died. In a fire. It was horrifying, and.."

Jynx had been wandering down below again to look for a human who might want to keep him company when he came across a cell. He paused, biting his bottom lip lightly as he stepped forward to look at the male inside. The scent was that of a wolf, so it threw Jynx off a bit. “Hey..Are you okay?”

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Totally. I'm just locking myself here till new moon. You know, when we change into these really scary monsters and stuff. Super scary stuff, if you ask me." Nate didn't have to ask the other wolf what he was doing here. "Humans must be on that side." 

[southern-she-wolf]

Qhuinn was in a mood. She had just brought Eclipse back to the cells, and had that usual empty feeling in her heart. The goodbyes were getting harder each time, and this time she didn’t bother to hide her tears, even for his sake. She’d just given him one last weak smile over her shoulder when she turned and found herself face to face with Nate..in a cell. “What..the actual fuck.. Nate! What are you doing in here?!”

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Chilling. What can I say? It's a pretty groovy place to lock yourself in, considering my other options included the forest and the Atlantic." Nate replied sarcastically, his humor never leaving him. "Why are you here? To rent me? You must be mistaken, I already have a mistress." 

[aoifexfaz]

"I love you, you know." Evie murmured, the words feeling foreign on her lips before they both became engrossed in each other once more. The young girl had never loved anyone before, no family or relationship meaning as much to her as her bond with Nate..

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"And I love you, princess." He held her close in a protective embrace as he kissed her softly. Maybe, here he'd find someone to stay with. Someone who wouldn't leave him like other people. 

[southern-she-wolf]

'You never know until you ask… Maybe Rhea? She's had more experience than all of us combined..' Qhuinn followed more slowly, feeling the waves of Nate’s emotions. 'Hey…' she gently nudged him with her nose, then gave his neck a little nuzzle. ‘I know we just met like thirty seconds ago but..if you want to talk, I’ve got the time’

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Rhea, or maybe even Alexander. Maybe he'd know, maybe they'd both know. I could ask for help, right?" Nate panicked, and it seemed that he had become that lost boy at eighteen. No name to keep and no home to go to. "There isn't much to talk about, unless you knew my dad or something."

Aria whimpered in pain as he dug into her flesh. She could feel her top ripping, the blood seeping through along her skin, onto the ground. “Let go!” she cried out as she tried to squirm away. It was to little avail. When he backed away, Aria worked to scramble to her feet. She could see the battle in his eyes, hoping the human would win, the ginger turned and started to run. If he decided to chase, she knew she’d be screwed.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Climb up the nearest tree with short branches!" He screamed in her mind, before he lost the battle with the beast. The wolf took it's own time, licking at the wounds before going in search of the bright haired girl. He would find his prey tonight; he wanted to feast. 

[aoifexfaz]

Evie separated their lips momentarily, lifting her top off with a grin. “Now are you going to join me or what?” she asked, tilting her head.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"You needn't ask, Evie.." Closing the distance between them, he slowly leaned back on the bed with her on top, smiling as he kissed her again. 

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

Nate had decided to lock himself up in the cells. The black outs were getting worse, and he had no solution to them. All he could remember the night before was shifting. And then waking up covered in blood, that didn't belong to him. So, now he paced in the tiny space and looked out, nervously.

Aria took the chance to try to run, but the wolf was much faster, capturing her all too easily. It pissed her off, but she had no time for anger. She screamed as loud as she could, “HELP!!!” But there seemed to be nobody around. She still had the bottle, broken now, and she jammed it into his side, “Lemme go! ‘m not yers! LET GO! SOMEONE HELP!” she cried out, feeling her skin cut from his claws.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

Growling in pain, his claws dug deeper into her shoulder. The heavy scent of blood and the thrumming of her heart brought onto the surface the human Nate. Eyes wide, he had taken control and backed away. He looked down in surrender and then back up at her. But the beast still remained. The taste of his prey was too much, and the battle was too strong for Nate to win. He howled at the moon, looking at her testily, hoping she'd run and save herself. 

[southern-she-wolf]

'That.. doesn't sound so good Nate..” Qhuinn looked over at him, her soft blue eyes concerned. She put on a little burst of speed, jumping over a fallen log just because she could. ‘I mean..I had trouble with shifting until I learned properly when I get here, but..I always remember.. That must be really scary for you..’

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"I'm not so sure if anyone can actually help me out with this." Frowning, he sniffed the ground and walked. His thoughts were a jumbled mess of worries now and he whined softly. Suddenly, he felt lonely and a little homesick.

Aria trembled, watching the wolf. She couldn’t outrun him. She couldn’t climb the stupid tree fast enough. She might’ve been closer to drunk than tipsy right now. A sigh of relief escaped when he retreated. It was ok. She was ok. But before she knew it, he was running after her. “NO! Don’t!” she screamed, trying to back away, but he was faster. She raised the bottle of whiskey, it was nearly empty, and hit him as hard as she could.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

The wolf growled, almost yowled in pain as the glass hit his mouth. It stung in the night air, but already the skin and fur was starting to pull and heal. That wench! He ran after her, fangs bared and his claws sticking out. He jumped atop her, tackling her to the ground and holding her prisoner with his claws.

"Those humans are my friends so I won’t be eating them. I’ll go find other humans or vulnerable supers since you seem eager to shower."

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"If it's saving my arse, then why the hell not?"

[southern-she-wolf]

-

'You don't remember? Is that a normal thing for you?' Qhuinn let Nate set the pace, easily looping alone side of him. 'I still can't hunt.. Weird huh?'

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"I don't know what is exactly wrong with me. Every time I shift, I seem to forget. It happens on most nights, but I think I'm more likely to forget this conversation too." Nate tried to sound nonchalant, but even in his banter he sounded worried. 

[ariamason]

-

Biting her lip, she shivered slightly as the wolf started to stalk forth. She couldn’t outrun it. Hell, she doubted she could run without tripping even if she were sober. She wasn’t exactly athletic. Basically, she was screwed. A slight whimper formed in her throat. “I dunno if yer werewolf or… or not, but… please, fuck, don’ hurt me.” She took a slow, careful step back, ending up against a tree. She tightened her grasp on the liquor bottle, suddenly all too sober. Maybe it’d work as a weapon, if needed.

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

The wolf growled, and from somewhere within, Nate whimpered. But the beast was too strong to conquer, and the hunger...Fuck, the hunger was too much. Surveying the glass in her hand and her body for any silver, he retreated with a growl. Only to come running after her. 

[ariamason]

Aria was a bit tipsy, popping a few pills as she ended up trailing through the woods. She stumbled a bit, giggling to herself as she moved deep into the forest. She hadn’t intended to go so far in, sipping the bottle of Jack which didn’t have much left. Glancing up at the low growl, she turned to her left, seeing the wolf. It was skinny, looked hungry, the hair standing on end. She stepped back slowly, blinking a few times. She was thinking it wasn’t likely a werewolf. “‘s ok… good dog… uh… ‘m just…” her heart hammered in her chest. She wasn’t sure how to get away from it as she tried to stand still, not knowing what to do. Still, the wolf stepped forward slightly, growling, snarling at her, threateningly. 

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

With the approaching full moon, Nate's wolf senses were high-wired. Often, his carnal desires would overtake his human ones, and he'd find himself at the forest. Away from the people he didn't want to hurt. But with the approaching female's sense, his human senses faded, and the desire to feed began to grow. He took menacing steps forth, ignoring her pleas. 

[karina-sanderson]

"Would you do that?" She wondered, her eyes widening slightly. 

[the-midnight-moon-gazer]

"Oh? Because I secretly plan on murdering you and then scattering your parts across the forest for kicks and giggles." He tried not to laugh at her, his humor slightly awry at being awoken so early.
