2nd Howl: Questions

[coyote_walking]

Hey there. Please excuse me if I use this like some City version of Craigslist back home, but I was hoping maybe someone could help me out.

First, I'm looking for a dojo. I'm a purple belt in a form called Shi Kei Kai Kan. I've been studying for about 5 years and while I don't necessarily expect anyone here to be teaching that form I would like to keep up with my practice.

Next, I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of church services for tomorrow - assuming they're still going in this blizzard.

Speaking of which... is this normal weather for this place?

Oh, and I know this is a long shot, but anyone looking for a good mechanic?

A Buddhist. Haven't met many of those. But I like what I've read about the religion.

[winewomenand]

I met Buddha once. Man with a good sense of humor. I can respect that.

But it's not for me.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

No? You follow any particular type of spirituality?

[winewomenand]

No. I have yet to see anything in this world that would lead me to believe that I ought to.

I don't pray to a god for things which I know I can bring to myself with my own two hands.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I can understand that.

[winewomenand]

Surprising. The faithful seldom do.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

It works for me. I believe and I've seen my faith rewarded.

If I hadn't had that experience... I could see not believing at all.

[winewomenand]

You're a practical woman. You remind me of another practical woman who I know.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Oh really?

[winewomenand]

Telling would be cheating. I'm not puck for nothing.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

All right then.

Well, I've had several people vouch for you and your strict adherence to the no-groping rule as long as you're at the dojo, so I think I might like to take you up on your offer - the sparring one.

[winewomenand]

You won't be disappointed. I shall be on my very best behavior.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Good to know. I look forward to it then.

[winewomenand]

You're sweet.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Not particularly.

[winewomenand]

Compared to the crowds that I 'run with,' to turn a phrase.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

You must run with some pretty harsh crowds.

Sweet certainly isn't a word I've heard used to describe me very often.

[winewomenand]

Trolls, mummies, wolves. You get the picture. Maybe.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Wolves, vampire, and fae are more my usual.

[winewomenand]

Please, god, tell me they don't have ridiculous painty wings. I can't take it. I really can't.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Hang on, let me catch my breath from the laughing.

No. Not that I've ever seen at least.

But then, mostly only the lesser fae were forced to go public by the Gray Lords.

[winewomenand]

God, politics. Only interesting when there is a scandal. It all sounds worse than the damn Kin from where I hail from. Useless werewolf mafia.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

No werewolf mafia where I'm from as far as I know. The Marrock wouldn't allow it.

[winewomenand]

What in Zeus' name is a Marrock? Spill some details for me.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

He's the leader of all the werewolves in North America. Every pack has their own Alpha, but he's in charge of all of them.
