7 Howls: Getting on with things

[coyote_walking]

Well, that was an interesting weekend. It was nice getting to talk to Warren for a few minutes and to know that Kyle was going to have a happy day.

I think I'm going to head out and do a little exploring today - maybe have a little run in the forest where no one's around to, uh... see me.

And then tonight I think will be a hot chocolate, popcorn and movies night if anyone wants to join me. If not it just means more room on the bed and popcorn for me!

I want to celebrate a little because I got that job with x-factor investigations. I mean, yeah, it's probationary for a month, but it's real work!

A little run in the forest?


[ooc: sorry I haven't gotten to tagging log back yet! want to backdate? :)]

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I could use a little exercise. And you know, spend a little time in my other form.


[ooc: Definitely! Backdating is always fine!]

[winewomenand]

And you like to spend this time alone?


[ooc: yay! :D]

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I don't know if like is the word, but I generally do.

[justashow.livejournal.com]

Congratulations.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

I know you're worried about it, but I swear I'll be careful. It's probationary for the first monthe so they're not going to just be sending me out there.

And if it seems too dangerous I'll quit. Promise.

[justashow.livejournal.com]

I know. You don't need my permission.

Actually, I have a gift for you. To celebrate.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Really? Aw... that's so sweet of you.

[justashow.livejournal.com]

You can see it on the way back from your run if you stop in at the garage where I keep the Jag.

It's pretty unwrappable but I put a bow on it anyway.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Now you have me intrigued. Okay, I'll stop by on my way back.

[justashow.livejournal.com]

Good.

[ooc: If Mercy stops by the garage she'll see a sectioned off space with a pile of what looks like scrap topped with a bow. The scrap is actually the parts Kyle had asked Remy to gather, though not all of them are there, it's enough to start work on building a VW.]

Some time later...

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Kyle!

Oh, you are the most wonderful - I can't believe you did this for me!

Thank you so much!

Some time later...

[justashow.livejournal.com]

It's just not the same seeing you without one. I hope those are the right ones, I'm no mechanic.

Re: Some time later...

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

They're perfect. What doesn't work exactly I can figure out or work a way around.

I just... I've tried to put a good face on it, but without at least something like this? I haven't felt like me. And when there's so much tension in the house I... I haven't had anywhere to go or anything I can do.

This... it means the world, Kyle. I can never thank you enough.

And now you've got me all teary, damn it.

Some time later...

[justashow.livejournal.com]

No waterworks, Mercy. I wanted you to feel at ease, even if you can't exactly feel at home here.

And anyway, I demand a race when you get it all put together.

[ex-rogueinte76.livejournal.com]

You saw people you were happy to see?

Congrats on the job.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, one of my best friends showed up for a little while.

Thanks. I hope it works out well.

[ex-rogueinte76.livejournal.com]

Must have been nice then. To see them.

I bet it will

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It was too short, but he was really here to spend the day with Kyle so I was glad to let him go.

Thanks. I hope you're right!

[ex-rogueinte76.livejournal.com]

He's close to Kyle then? The people that visited me stayed too long.

Will you be doing field work?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they're lovers, and very much in love, back home.

I don't know yet. I suppose I'll see once I get started.

[ex-rogueinte76.livejournal.com]

Must be really hard for him to not have him here then.

Good luck either way.

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

It is. I don't know how he's managed here alone for so long. I can't imagine it myself.

Thanks!

[ex-rogueinte76.livejournal.com]

I can't either. He has friends here though right?

[coyote-walking.livejournal.com]

He does, yes, thank heavens!
