In Wolf's Clothing...

[oftragedy-deactivated20220805]

“‘Scuse me.” He tapped the person nearest to him on the shoulder, flashing them a friendly smile. “Got a spare umbrella by any chance?” Nerithes should have listened when everybody told him to at least bring a hoodie. It was pouring out with occasional thunder. The thin material of his shirt surely wouldn’t be saving him from that amount of rainfall. “I’ve really ought to listen to these weather reports nowadays.” The merman chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

Cayden hated not being able to be helpfull, he always wanted to be of service to people, especially when they directly asked for help, but unfortunately, he only had the one umbrella...

“I’m sorry, I don’t... but there’s a bookstore around the corner and they usually have some for sale, I’m heading there anyway so if you want to walk together we can share?” he suggested, gesturing to the umbrella he was already using

“I’m sorry Cay, I really thought you’d have gotten my messages before this, you sure you’re good?”

“Ofcourse, it’s all fine, I’ll catch you next week, ok?”

“Next week for sure, thanks for being so understanding,”

“Ofcourse, ofcourse! And congrats on the twins, tell Becca she has my best,”

“You got it,”

Hanging up with a quiet sigh, Cayden pocketed his phone and rubbed the back of his neck with uncertainty, he had been up all night getting things ready for a book event at this little local book store, he’d even made a few batches of cookies, but the owner’s wife went into labor and apparently Cayden was rushing so much that he hadn’t checked his phone before leaving….

Now he had a trunk full of cookies and nothing to do with them…. and he had a feeling eating them himself wasn’t the best idea in the world

So, opting for another terrible idea, he smiled at the first person he saw walk by and called out to them

“Excuse me, you wouldn’t happen to be interested in free cookies, would you?”

@hollywoodundeadstarters​

His work week had felt like it dragged. Today in particular felt like a long day, having left the young werewolf mentally drained and a little distraught. Miles had his earphones in as he walked down the street, having been able to at least notice the man opening his mouth as he looked at Miles. Unsure of what he had said, he removed an earphone, moving his full attention to the man.

“Uh…” He paused, having felt bad to even ask the man to repeat himself. “Cookies…” He looked up at the man awkwardly, digging his hands in his pockets. “Well… I haven’t had sweets in a while, and those cookies are looking pretty good. You said you’re selling them, right? How much?” Miles began to dig for his wallet as he spoke.

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“What-...? Oh! No no no, they’re free!” Cayden promised quickly, picking up one of the trays and offering it to the stranger

“I just ended up having way more than I needed,” to put it mildly “and really, my hips will thank you for taking some of these off my hands,”

Cayden definitely had a sweet tooth, and the only thing keeping him out of the baked goods most times was just preventing himself from having too many sweets in the house to begin with, but now with this over-abundance of cookies and not wanting them to go to waste....

If he didn’t get help, he foresaw a very sugary weekend in his future....

[wolf-wren]

“It’s always good to run into other wolves, especially in a city like this” Wren chuckled at the other wolf, even if her inner wolf was always wary- especially with the amount of scraps that she had gotten into out in Shanghai. “I’m Wren, I’m back in the city after a long break from it. Really makes you remember how wild others can be here. Almost uncivilized at times” she sighed, offering him a smile “You seem fairly level headed, though?”

@whatsharpteethyouhave​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“Oh I couldn’t agree with you more, I always find it more comfortable to have other wolves around, I really miss it,”

It had been almost two years since he last saw his family.... but he tried not to think about that

“It’s nice to meet you Wren, I’m Cayden,” he smiled, holding his hand out politely for her

“Oh... yeah.... ‘uncivilized’ is putting it mildly.... I met a woman a few weeks ago who said my dog was my slave... it was..... people here are very interesting,” he winced, and that had, unfortunately, only been the tip of the iceberg...

“Thank you, I’m not really a... celebrity type.... I guess? I um... I only moved here to get as far away from Florida as I could without leaving the country.... that.. that sounds weird, sorry, um.. I had a really bad breakup there and just kind of can’t stand to be in the sunshine state anymore, you know?”

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“I’m sorry Cay, I really thought you’d have gotten my messages before this, you sure you’re good?”

Lydia had been shopping for make-up, which really was the same as working for her almost. While she got most of her make-up at her job itself, she liked to have her own collection to supply with. She got a lot from sponsors, but every now and then she would still go to the stores, see what was trending, what people liked to buy. She’d also gotten a few new items for herself, just to try at home. With her bag in hand, she was on her way to get something to eat when someone called out to her.

Maybe there was a higher power at play, because she had been feeling hungry, or at least peckish for a snack, when a stranger out of nowhere asked her if she wanted free cookies. She stopped on the street and looked at him curiously. “You’re giving out free cookies? That seems too good to be true. Are they, like, happy cookies or something? Not that I’d say no to that either. Still, I probably shouldn’t trust strangers handing out cookies in Hollywood. You eat one first,” she dared.

Glad to have a taker, Cayden laughed, grabbing a cookie from one of the large trays in the trunk

“Only if by ‘happy’ you mean ‘happy from deliciousness’,”

God that was a bad joke, someone help him

Taking a bite as proof, he then gestured to the car again, offering her whatever she’d like, with trays of chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, sugar, and coconut laid out neatly covered in foil

“No ulterior motives, just a little misunderstanding with an event I was supposed to do and now I have a ton of cookies and would really prefer not to give myself diabetes by trying to eat all of them alone, if you happen to have freinds or an office full of co-workers or something who would enjoy these, please feel free to take what you’d like, I’d rather someone enjoy them than watch them turn old and crusty,”

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Yeaaaah, getting tethered to a total stranger at a party held by people Cayden mostly didn’t know wasn’t the best thing that had ever happened to him, he didn’t really take well to parties to begin with, or socializing with strangers, and this just seemed to amplify the reasons for that- the awkwardness, the shyness, the uncertainty...

But things could definitely be worse, atleast the guy he was tethered to was.... actually really gorgeous....

“So um... have you ever been to a party like this before? With the um.... tethers and.... stuff...?”

Way to go on the conversing there Cay, nice job

@erembour-dragon​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“I’m very old, so forgive me for my way of talking” He said with a small chuckle “But really, you seem to be excited for being here? And I get that it could be like that since you pretty much just moved but it’s still refreshing to see” He took a small sip of the drink he had ordered moment earlier “People here in Hollywood lose that kind of wonder once they arrive, the city stripes them off of it”

“Oh, no, believe me, it’s fine, I mean people sort of think my way of speaking is weird, I actually really like the way you speak,”

Cayden had a taste for older slang, things like “groovy” and “super”, it wasn’t due to age, but just because he liked it more than modern slang, though people teased him pretty relentlessly for it

He was the last person to judge speaking patterns

He nodded a little, taking a sip of his own drink

“I hope I don’t lose that... I don’t really like people, so I’m not looking to impress anyone, and my career is already pretty set so I’m not expecting anything from this city there either,” he noted

“Is it... too personal if I ask why you decided to live here, given how cruel the city is?”

[oftragedy-deactivated20220805]

Everything was happening so fast—but at events like these, it was always to be expected. As he just moved out of a large crowd of people, Miles hadn’t expected for yet another person to be standing right in front of him. Having noticed it too slowly, his body bumped hard against the larger figure in front of him, prompting him to bounce two steps back by nature. “Sorry, man. You alright?”

@whatsharpteethyouhave

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“Eh. What’s a little bruise gonna do? I’ll live.” Miles shrugged nonchalantly, stuffing his hands in his pockets. Most of the time, he had been very observant of his surroundings, but today felt a little harder to pay attention. There were too many things going on at once. Thankfully, the other wolf hadn’t responded as aggressively as he would have expected. For such an intimidating looking person, he sure seemed very… down to earth. It was strange. “It’s getting pretty crazy, huh?”

Cayden hadn’t noticed it when he first bumped into the stranger, but now that he had a better look at him... it was crazy how much he resembled John

And yet somehow not at all

Physically, he looked like he could be his ex’s twin, but he carried himself so differently- mature and confident and smooth, totally unlike the nervousness, immaturity, and almost aggressive flirtation John had been known for, it was a little eerie, and Cayden would be lying if he said that the still fresh wound of their split wasn’t throbbing from the resemblance

“Y-Yeah! It’s... I’m not... great with parties but... you know how it is with people insisting and....”

God he sucked at this

“Sorry I’m being kind of awkward it’s just... you look just like someone I know, it’s... like I’m having deja vu,”

[oftragedy-deactivated20220805]

@whatsharpteethyouhave

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“Oh! Yes I’m fine, sorry about that! Are... you ok?”

It was Cayden’s fault really, he had sort of spaced out, the music was loud and there were so many people and scents and everything was just.... chaos.....

He had always been an introvert, always hated loud music and crowded spaces, and the older he got the less he liked parties of any kind too... it was all so overwelming that he hadn’t noticed anyone behind him either

Looking down at the boy’s hand in amusement he decided to indulge in this and take his hand, tangling their fingers together “You could say that and you? You look too young and starry eyed to have been here for too long” He told him, the smiled never leaving his face.

“I don’t mean it as an insult, of course” He was quick to add.

“It’s not taken as one,” Cayden promised

“Although I haven’t heard ‘starry-eyed’ in nearly a decade, am I really?”

Actually it was kind of... nice.... to hear something like that again, the last few years he had just heard that he had “resting bitch face” or looked like he had “just lost his best freind”- wich wasn’t wrong- so it was refreshing to hear that he looked like anything other than depressed or pissed off

“I actually moved here just before Christmas, in fact I’ve only lived on the east coast until now,”

Call him simple or naive but just holding hands with someone he was interested in made his heart flutter

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Cayden’s outfit is fairly simple- just a t-shirt and jeans, he’s not really a fashion person or a neon person so he was a little stumped for what to do

He didn’t know whose idea to do a tether on Valentine’s day of all days was, but that person really deserved a raise or a pat on the back. Really seeing everyone’s awkwardness was what was keeping this evening entertaining.

One thing he was glad tho, that his partner was at least pretty good looking, maybe a bit shy and awkward but he was great eye candy. Not being able to chuckle softly at his awkward questions he shook his head “I’m afraid I haven’t, my dear. But as the people say now, there is a first time for everything.. right?” He said winking at him and smirking “Best to make the best out of this…preditment” he looked down at their cuffed hands with an amused smile.

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Oh, good, Cayden hadn’t even known his face could get this warm, was his skin burning? It felt like his skin was burning

He wasn’t used to the suave flirtation that Erembour offered, John had always been much more... blunt... with his advances, but the gentleness- was that the right word?- of this interaction was definitely making Cayden’s heart beat a little faster

“I couldn’t agree more, two hours is a pretty good amount of time for getting to know eachother, wouldn’t you say?”

And maybe after getting to know eachother, they could get to know eachother

Shifting his hand a little, Cayden turned his palm up, a subtle gesture that he actually wanted to hold hands with his partner, face still practically crimson as he did

“Have you um.. been in Hollywood for long?”

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Task: Homes

Cayden lives in a very rustic place, a cabin-like house near to the woods that gives him plenty of room to run during the full moon

The main feature of the house is being warm and cozy, something that Cayden treasures, maybe subconciously trying to replicate his childhood home...

His desire for replication may very well be why he clings to memories so much, keeping various small memory boxes and memento chests that contain everything from ticket stubs to bottlecaps, anything that reminds him of something special

His dog, Alice, more or less rules the roost, and dog toys can be found spread out everywhere, with Alice herself often being found on one peice of furniture or another

His favorite room is his library, housing everything from cryptid encyclopedias to manga to novels, it’s not really a mystery why he became a writer considering how much he reads

Though he loves his library, he’s also quite fond of the kitchen, he likes to cook and for the first time in years actually has the proper space to do so, as the apartment he had lived in for most of his adult life was quite small and offered little in kitchen space

Ofcourse his favorite room may yet change, he isn’t quite done packing yet so there are still various moving boxes settled here and there until he’s finished, he says that it’s due to his busyness since moving to Hollywood, but it may just be procrastinating....

[practicccalmagix-deactivated202]

Have you ever wanted to see a grown man cry? Walking through the little shops of Hollywood, a sight was unfolding in front of everyone. Paxton had a particularly rough day. He’d accidentally caught his garden on fire, he’d spilled most of his new shipment of herbs, and even broke his favorite mortar and pestle. And all he wanted after a long day, after his shop closed and the warm evening sun was setting on him, was a goddamn popsicle to ease his emotional pain of the day. 

The first place he went they only had mango flavors, not even the mixed kind just straight mango and that didn’t sound good. When he finally found a spot that had the kind he was searching for, the refreshing taste of orange and pineapple, he sat down to enjoy his treat when a child knocked into him and knocked the popsicle onto the ground. So he sat on the bench, hands folded in his lap, staring blankly ahead as he worked to maintain his cool. He sucked in a deep breath and glanced in the direction of an oncoming shadow. “You can sit here, I’ll be going in a second.” He offered, not wanting to take up room the stranger could be using. 

@hollywoodundeadstarters​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

He’s about to ask who Alice is when he gets his answer in the form of a bark and nails clicking against the wood bench. The silky feel of fur under his fingertips pauses the sad thoughts and energy that seemed to be flowing from him. “Oh. Hello.” He murmurs, offering the dog some scratches behind the ears, setting his cane to the side where she wouldn’t knock it over. “Alice is very friendly.” Paxton notes, tilting his head a bit as he lets the dog guide his hand around her head.

“What kind of dog is she?” He asked, closing his eyes to let them rest from the light. Paxton was never allowed pets growing up, though he would have adored one. A cat maybe. Or one of those cute little weiner dogs with the long hair. Something small that he could take with him wherever he went and that would fit well in an apartment since he’d never pictured a life outside the city. Though, perhaps, it was time to start thinking about that. “Oh, yes, hello friend.” Finally, a smile breaks across his lips as he feels the paws press into his legs, and the feeling of sniffing surrounding him.

“Oh yeah, she’s never met a person she didn’t like,” Cayden confirmed with a laugh

Honestly it was a good thing that he tried to watch out for danger for her before she went trustingly up to some asshole on a bad day or followed a dognapper into a van...

“She’s a Yorkie, I’d always heard that they were loud and kind of obnoxious but my ex really insisted on the breed and honestly I’m glad he did, I’m not sure if Alice is different or if Yorkies just get a bad rap but I’ve never met a sweeter, freindlier creature,”

Cayden had always been drawn to big dogs himself, having always pictured having a lab or a husky or some such, but admittedly, he wasn’t sure he’d ever have a dog besides the itty bitty ones now

Alice, for her part, was wagging her tail happily, clearly sensing the Paxton’s freindly energy and rubbing her head up against his cheek before licking him again

“Yeah one thing though, she will drench you in puppy kisses if you let her,” Cayden added belatedly

[drexelpalmer-archive]

Dre dipped the utensil into the simmering sauce, stirring in slow circles as he flicked the burner off. He had a steaming pile of basmati rice pillowed in one of the restaurants dishes and he carefully scooped a ladle full of the chicken curry to place over. He had recently discovered a new Indian market that called his name to buy a smattering of almost everything to test out in Lux’s kitchen after hours. He put a piece of fresh naan bread on the side and pushed it over to the other, beckoning for them to take a bite. 

“Be honest, tell me if it’s good or bad, and if it’s good: do you think it could be a good special? Maybe could put it on like a Tuesday, or Wednesday, see how people enjoy it... maybe make it more of a staple kind of thing.” 

That’s what Dre loved, finding new stores to buy from in the area especially if it was a family owned business. He wanted them to thrive and if he could help them even just a tiny bit by using them as a resource for Lux he would jump at the chance. @hollywoodundeadstarters​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Dre drummed his fingers against the metal top of the counter with a child like smile and he rested his palms flat to hide his giddiness. “See, curries can be so hard, there’s always a little bit of this and a little bit of that that can really set the balance askew, but there was this awesome place I found walking around, and in one of those books that I… probably really need to give back to you, there was this curry recipe I had just been trying over and over again, but there was something missing. I was talking to the owner of this Indian market I happened across, owned by the Kumar’s and they had exactly what I needed to get that balance just so. I’m really excited to keep working with them.”

“You’re right, you’re right, throw out some test days and really see the draw it brings before expanding it for further days. I wonder if it could even be manipulated into like an appetizer type of deal with different curries and different flavored naan..” The ideas were whirring in his head, his daydreaming thoughts dancing as he thought of the different ways to plate the dish in his head. He shook himself from his mind, blinking as he focused back on Cayden. “Anyways, fuck, I need to stop. How are you, man?”

Cayden had always been a good listener, he liked to talk sure, but he loved listening to people talk about what made them happy, hearing others embrace their passions made him genuinely happy too, and Drex was quite obviously very passionate about food

“You could do that, make it into a sampler type of thing, put it on one of those plates with the little spinny thing under it so that people can turn the plate to try different things, I bet it’d be a huge hit at parties and small gatherings, almost like a fondu kind of thing,”

Ofcourse Cayden may not be the best person to give this kind of advice, not having been to a party or anything of the sort in.... literally years.... but he still wanted to make the suggestion

“Oh no no, you know I could listen to you talk about this all day, I’m just happy to be a springboard for some ideas,”

Any help he could offer was help he would gladly give

“I’m doing well, still unpacking though honestly, I don’t know why it’s taking me so long this time around, what about you?”

[dragon-kiddra]

Kiddra was deeply lost within LA. Her loneliness was not a choice in the city, not unlike her home. She greatly missed the peace of her forest and the simple company of her daughter. And yet now her daughter was off with others of their kind, witches and Gods only knew what. Kiddra was at a loss and knew she needed a plan on just how to bring her daughter back under her wing.  The dragon had spent little time sleeping and instead had been wandering. She found herself intrigued by members in a local park playing Chess out in the open and she of course was sure to silently involved herself, crushing her competitors with ease. Once the dragon had been through the players and they’d scuttled off to nurse their bruised egos at the strange foreigner who had crushed them with ease -she found herself alone again, toying with an abandoned Chess set.  Kiddra slowly began to play herself, shifting the pieces with expert precision as she did a number of complex plays that were likely only ever seen in championships. That was until she sensed someone near her and she immediately jumped- still not entirely used to others being so close to her. “I was too focused...You startled me” she said, her Spanish accent strong as she spoke.

@hollywoodundeadstarters​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

“You would lose….” The dragon stated simply, a closed invitation to him playing with her. The dragon was fussy about who she played with and a smelly wolf wasn’t exactly one on her mind for an opponent choice. Kiddra just simply couldn’t trust another and it only pushed her further into isolation of her own doing. When the dog yipped she wrinkled her nose and looked down to the little creature “Who do you imprison that animal?” she asked in confusion, pointing at the small dog “Is it because it is small?” she wondered, not really understanding the concept of a pet. She’d never had or needed one in her home. 

Cayden really shouldn’t laugh, he knew that, but something about the situation was just... amusing...

Not in a mean way, but in a surprisingly fun way

“I’m sure I would, but I don’t mind, I play because it’s fun, not because I want to win,”

Though he was sure in Hollywood that was a novel concept...

Glancing back down at Alice, he instinctively picked her up and beamed as she licked his cheek, before her attention was instantly on the dragon again, making her little swimming motion as if that would somehow get her closer to the stranger so she could say “Hi”

“She’s not imprisoned, it’s um... more like a co-dependent relationship, I feed her and give her a place to live and take care of her and in return she gives me companionship and unconditional love, she’s only on a leash so that she doesn’t get hurt, there are coyotes and shit around here you know? And she’s tiny so I don’t really think she could go toe to toe with a coyote.... or.. even a really determined cat if I’m being honest, but she doesn’t know that so it’s safer to keep her close to me so I can protect her,”

[elsie-parker]

Elsie had no clients booked for the evening, her first completely empty shift since she had started, and Theo had made it abundantly clear that she was expected to drum up as much business as she could regardless of the clear lack of willing clients. Flirting with the folks that came into Voyeur wasn’t Elsie’s forte - she was good at the actual bookings, having taught herself to tune out what was actually happening and just give in, but when it came to the foreplay, the chase, she was hopeless. It made her feel vulnerable, and she was pretty much terrified of all of Voyeur’s regulars, knowing that they were all capable of making her life miserable.

Slicking some gloss onto her lips, she sighed softly, straightening her babydoll dress and pulling on her heels, preparing to enter the patron’s area of the club. She grabbed a vodka tonic from the bar, the alcohol helping to steel her nerves, before heading to the nearest lone patron, settling herself delicately in the stool next to them. “Hey there… what brings you into Voyeur? I don’t think I’ve seen you round before…” she murmured, resting her perfectly manicured fingers on their forearm, fluttering her mascara-coated lashes in a desperate attempt at flirting.

@hollywoodundeadstarters​

[whatsharpteethyouhave]

Fun fact- Cayden had been to sex clubs a few times, they had never really been his cup of tea- well, not when he was with John, who had been the culprit dragging him into said clubs every single time- but he was starting to get.... well he probably left “lonely” off in the ditch months ago, but he was starting to get so lonely that he was entertaining the thought of online dating again

Clearly he had to get out of the house...

The Vouyer seemed like a good option, everyone was there to meet someone- probably- but there weren’t any awkward small talk related expectations, if you didn’t click with someone then it was alot easier to move on and not hurt their feelings, it was a good first place to try getting back out there, or atleast it was in his opinion

Apparently he wasn’t the only one who felt that way

“I’m new,” he explained, kind of badly

“I mean I-.. I moved here um, just a few months ago, right before Christmas, so this is my first chance to... try this place out, what about you?”
