35 Howls: What have we done?

[coyote_walking]

Well, that was awful. Blood everywhere, gross enough in itself, but it also smelled... wrong. I think I spent half the day in the shower trying to get the smell off of me and the rest baking to try and cover the smells.

Of course, that means there's more than enough brownies and cookies to feed half the City, so if anyone wants any, just stop by. I could use the company. Living all alone in this huge house is a little disconcerting.

And does anyone wonder if just maybe, if we'd let the City come crashing down around our ears, we would have all ended up back in our homes? Probably not, but, well... a girl wonders sometimes.

Any chance on chocolate chip cookies?

Re: magic word XD

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Chocolate chip, peanut butter, yep. I have them all.

[coffeenspeed.livejournal.com]

All those magic words... What do I have to do to get in your good graces?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I didn't know you weren't. What have you done, Anthony?

[ihasfeather.livejournal.com]

The only other option would be oblivion, wouldn't it?~

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Maybe. Who can say?

Are we really even here? What goes on beyond this life?

There's so many questions...

[ihasfeather.livejournal.com]

[Giggling because oh the irony of that...]

Becoming slightly existential, aren't we?~

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I guess I'm just in that sort of a mood.

[neverendingbeat.livejournal.com]

I thought of that. That leaving the barrier to tear itself apart might let us go home? Considering what I discovered surrounds the City, that concept is really highly unlikely. Raw potential does unpleasant things to the living thing, and is even more unpleasant to the sentient living thing.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Obviously didn't want to chance it myself since I was one of those out there patching.

You are Mercedes Thompson, correct?

Re: [private//hackable with effort]

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's correct.

I... I can't exactly remember if we've met. I'm Mara.

[prodigalvampire]

With our luck, probably not.

Listen, I've been thinking...you're not the only one living alone and...well...a big house still allows for plenty of personal space, right?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeeeesss...

What are you thinking?

[prodigalvampire]

I could probably spend more time over there.

[mumbled_truth]

Well, but... even if we did, what would happen to those who don't have anywhere to go?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I hadn't thought that far through.

[mumbled_truth]

Yeah... I really am sorry that everyone who wanted to didn't get home, it's just... there are a lot of people who only have the City now.

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

Did you get the smell off eventually?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yes. And half my skin, too, I think.

How about you?

[alittlewild.livejournal.com]

I still have a headache but it's not so bad. I'm trying to not think about where the blood came from.

[rogueintent.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'll be getting over that smell for a long time. It was sickening.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I know. I really hope that never happens again!

[rogueintent.livejournal.com]

Me too. I'm glad I'm not like other wolves that you know...get hungry with blood. My mind keeps drifting over to thinking about where it came from but I really don't think anyone wants to know that.
