ignoring jae's inpoliteness with a smug chuckle, he talked to luna "how do i check, i mean i was attacked, blacked out and woke up in the entrance hall. A woman that could change forms called Airlia did something to take the pain away.. but its coming back now"
He cast his memories back to the wolf to describe it "it was larger than any man, obsidian fur, dark eyes and teeth that looked like pewter"

Jae shuddered at the mention of werewolf. Memories of white fur on snow and the taste of blood. He had killed one once, and the thing had not gone down quietly. Sin and Dex had sung with the blood that night, even with the help of Ailynne.
But he stayed quiet, and let Horus answer, concentrating on eating.

Horus noticed the silence that had fallen on Jae, and the shudder at the mention of the wolf. He nodded, sipped another beer and began describing the attack.
"we left the city at sundown. The moon was full. We got i dont know a few miles into the fields on the outskirts when it fell on us. Howls from every direction. The woman and her children mutilated one buy one, Their desperate screams cut short by the sound of their tearing flesh. before i saw it. I put a few rounds in it from this thing" he said holding the rifle up " but though i injured it, it kept coming. and clamped down on my leg.. then i awoke out there. it seems like its only been a few hours." he said looking far away and staring into space.

Luna seems unphased by this story of gore and brutality, simply maintaining a vague pout and watching Horus with mild interest as he spoke. Once he is done Luna tents her fingers together is if ready to say something thought-provoking...
"You wont know until you change." She says bluntly, referring to his question on how to check if he'd been infected or not. "And that can happen anytime, full moon, or just the simple desire to transform and rip apart your friends." Luna adds matter-of-factly. Jae had gone quiet... perhaps he was werewolf himself..? She glances suspiciously in his direction, pout intensifying.

Jae gesticulated with his fork at Lunavyre at her look.
"Oi." Was all he could say to begin with, having a mouthful of food, but he swallowed and continued.
"I'm bloody flattered you know at all your attention Princess, but suspicion tells me you think I'm a werewolf? I'm not you know. Fucken hell! My animal's a fox anyway." He gave a barking laugh, short and derisive.
"Don't worry Horus, you'll be alright. Forgive me if I don't hang about at the full moon though."

Stunned at the sheer rudeness of jae to luna, horus felt his temper rise a little. Visably the blue in his eyes glowed more vibrantly which contrasted his pale skin and white hair.
"im sure youl be fine jae, i think if i where infected id go after something with a little bit more meat on it" he laughed innocently, poking fun at how thin jae was.

Luna is slightly taken-a-back by Jae's response, his sharp laugh making her jump a little, though her expression seems set in stone, only her eyes widen to the apruptness of it all.
She cannot help but sneer at the remark from Horus, Jae was pretty trim, it seemed fitting that he should be associated with a fox... whatever this meant.
Luna folds her arms and leans back into the huge chair, throwing her legs over the arm so that she slumps into it sideways. "Were's are alright once they control themselves" She states, now with her back to Jaeger. "Who the hell is Airlia anyway?"

after not blinking for a few moments, while the images of suddenly launching across the room and tearing jae's head from his shoulders flashed through his Mind, he shook his head and closed his eyes "woah, that was wierd" he said out loud, opening his eyes to reveal the glow gone for now.
aware of the question luna had just asked him as he snapped back to reality, he nodded to her. "i havent a clue, she said she lives in the ruins"

Arrow had an urge to visit the palace, something he had tried to avoid most of the time, but he had ran into Airlia earlier in the night.
His friend - if anyone could call the Demon a friend - had told him of a new arrival in Midian who seemed to have been attacked by a werewolf. So Arrow now padded through the palace with four paws and white-blond fur; as a wolf. He did not like to leave anyone who might be going through a change, remembering how scary it was.
His keen nose scented out the man, in the Dining hall.
Arrow slinked in nochelently, and grinned, tongue lolling a moment. Lunavyre. She was Mistress of the palace and so required his respect. The wolf made his way to her, and like some domestic dog put his head next to her on the chair, nuzzling at her leg slightly, as tame as anything.
He heard an exclaimation, "Bloody hell! Is this werewolf city or something?!" But Arrow ignored it.

Luna rolled her eyes to Horus's words "Bloody homeless squatting in the ruins again I suppose" She replies coldly, arms still folded across her chest. She appeared child-like in her pose, her bare legs thrown carelessly over her masters chair, clad only in the leather of her boots and covered appropriately by the little black number she always wore. Horus, however, didn't look so hot, seemingly transfixed on Jaeger...
But Luna has little time to react as rather spontaneously the three are graced with the presence of a large, fair haired wolf that pads boldly to wards her. She cannot help but pet the handsome animal, with its almost sparkling eyes. Luna frowns, having seen this wolf before once or twice within the city... "What brings you here to the Palace then?"

Horus watched the wolf walked in, his mind screamed at him the two words he had understood scince he was 5 years old "OPEN FIRE!" yet he did not do anything, somethig, almost instinctual told him to greet the newcomer. the talon attached to his wrist and hand shook angrilly, as a side affect of his anxiety. The cyber-implanted weapon activated when the adrenaline got pumping.
he lifted his hand (the one without the weapon) forward to stroke the fur around the wolf's neck. Something told him that would suffice as a freindly hello

Arrow panted happily for a moment at the attention, looking to Luna and the other man who he knew to be turned - or turning. There was a change in his scent, a sharpness of a kindred spirit. Yes, the man was his kin in a way, that they were now of the same species.
The third person in the room smelt completely different, as if he didn't touch this place properly. He also was looking with suspcious dark eyes.
Arrow wished he could speak to humans as a wolf, because it would make everything so much easier, but it seemed you needed to be a monkey sometimes.
He turned.
It was a graceful thing, limbs changing shape and length, hair shortening off his body to reveal pale skin. His large wine-colouredd birthmark on his side showed up again now uncovered by fur. Paws to hands, claws to fingernails. He shook his head to make his hair fall in place, smiling.
Arrow sat down immediately, more concerned with covering his birthmark than his modesty.
"I'm here to see this one." He pointed to the werewolf.
But Arrow shifted his gaze to Luna again, "But Lady Lunavyre, it is a pleasure to see you-"
He was cut across by the other man, "Stop licking ass, and get some clothes on man! Who are you anyway?"
Arrow gave him a patient smile. "My name is Arrow." He concentrated a moment, trying to find the part of his soul that was labelled. "Your name is Jaeger." He said proudly with a rather toothy smile. "Pleased to meet you."
Jaeger raised an eyebrow. "Right. You too Arrow. Hey Princess, you got anything you can lend the naked wolf cause I sure haven't!"

He watched amased as the wolf changed into the naked man. and once again stared at jae when he had to stick his point of view in, This little man was becoming an annoyance.
Noticing that Arrow, as he called himself had pointed at him, horus turned to face the visitor
"your here to see me?" he asked bewildered.. "is this about the wolf that attacked me?, why im having wierd violent visions and a growing headache?" he asked in a curious tone.

The transformation from wolf to human was a sight Luna had witnessed a fair few times living in a city such as Midian, but it was still an interesting one. 'Lady' Lunavyre, that sounded odd but she supposed it was correct after all. She swings her legs round to the correct, forward-facing direction now, not wanting to seem impolite or too casual in the presence of a new guest.
"Stop calling me Princess!" She snaps suddenly at Jaeger who was rattling on about clothes or something. Luna blushes somewhat, she hadn't even noticed this Arrow's lack of clothes having been rather hypnotised by the whole turning process. "Oh! Right. I suppose we might have something... I'll see what I can find..." With that Luna hastily exits the hall.

Arrow reached his hand out after Lunavyre to try and stop her. He really didn't care about being naked, he had nothing to be ashamed of, but if that's what she wanted to do then he could not stop her.
He frowned at the werewolf a moment, his ashen opel eyes trying to find his name. Arrow touched him lightly on the wrist with his fingertips from where he sat.
"Horus? I spoke to Airlia earlier today, and she told me of a very interesting thing indeed; a werewolf in the Palace just turned. Your body is telling you that you need to Change, if you do I won't let you hurt anyone." Arrow spoke with easy confidence.
Jaeger was muttering to himself about Princesses, Arrow catching, "If she acts like she got a fucken broom up her arse..." but nothing much else. He left the human to his concerns, more worried for Horus.
