undergrounds | [Open] June Catch-All for Shea's Characters!

So Lydia had a boyfriend. Okay, Nancy didn't believe that for a second. People who's names you didn't know were not boyfriend material. Or at least not someone you actively called your boyfriend. Sure, virginity loss was a big thing to some girls, and Nancy was sure Lydia was one of those girls. She hadn't been precious about it, personally. But her life had hardly been ordinary, and Nancy's understanding of sex and how it worked in the real world was not exactly the healthiest view.

But she did have a good understanding of what to do during the act, which was why she was going to help Lydia. Besides, it was her civic duty, in a way, to make sure Lydia knew how to enjoy herself. She had had a few women give her a few tips when she'd first been on the street, so she considered this her paying it forward.

She arrived at Lydia's house with her purse filled with a few unmentionable items. This was totally what normal girls did, right?

"Hey, love!" She calls when Lydia opens the door, and gives her friend a hug. "So you want me to show you your way around a dick, then?" May as well jump straight to it, and the alcohol on her breath didn't exactly want her to be gentle about it. It was best to be frank when talking about sex, she'd learned that the hard way.

There were few situations Laura imagined she could get herself involved in so early that would make her meeting with Katherine loom darker on the horizon. She'd gone against orders in order to partake in Hillingdon's capture of the newly opened Institute, and even had some beautiful flowers she'd purloined from their gardens sitting on her desk. Further more, she was new, not only to the pack, but to London and to being a wolf. She knew what she'd look like, some strange upstart coming out of nowhere asking questions, but she had them, and she wanted a straight answer.

So Laura had taken it upon herself to schedule a meeting with their Alpha, and arrived dressed in a well-pressed blazer and suit combo, her glasses set upon her nose and her gaze steady. She had questions, and she believed she had some experience that could prove beneficial for the East End pack.

Ellie is sitting down in the commons, a book open on the coffee table and some half-assed notes in her lap.

She'd only been with the pack for a couple of weeks, and with school finishing for the year, she hadn't had much time to spend in the den. While Ellie doesn't enjoy school very much, she does want to at least pass the year. So here she is, trying to be social and meet other werewolves while working on her final essay.

Also, Sherman's making a communal dinner. Ellie isn't sure it was meant to be communal at first, but then he'd asked if she liked shepherd's pie. She did, so he was making that. Not that Ellie would really turn anything down.

Ellie hears a set of footsteps coming down the way and sniffs the air. Luck is on her side, because the draft brings the smell to her. It's vaguely familiar, beyond the underlying scent of werewolf Ellie is learning to recognize. That probably means she's part of the pack, or at least has been here a lot.

Ellie waves when she comes into view, straightening from her book. She's only met a few of the pack members so far--Katherine, Ghoul, and those who keep similar hours to her. There aren't many, but she'll track them all down once school is out.

For now, though, she smiles just a little. It's another pack member, even if she looks...not like Ellie would imagine a werewolf to look like. Sort of like Mrs. Blatherwick, but more professional.

"Uh, hi. I'm Ellie." Ellie doesn't know if Katherine has introduced her to everyone, or if Ghoul has, or what, but the people so far have accepted her without much fuss, if with a few raised eyebrows.

Two young teenage werewolves joining up around the same time is sort of unusual. Especially when they both have activated curses.

Nancy had some 'splainin' to do. And, for that matter, so did Allison. Who the hell randomly has knives in their boots, anyway? While Allison had been sick, Nancy'd brought over some soup for her, but due to said sickness, the two women had never actually sat down and had the conversation they were supposed to have had months ago.

The one where Allison explains the knives. And where Nancy explains that oh, hey, she's a witch.

So that's what brought them here, Nancy having invited Allison over to Cooper's place so they could be away from prying ears. When Allison arrives, she invites her in. "Can I get you something to drink?" Nancy of course is thinking about her fresh bottle of gin in the cupboard.

The call from the East End Pack was unexpected to say the least. Sylvia knows they'd had a rather public falling-out with Circle Daybreak following the unfortunate events in Richmond. As always, she offers help and sanctuary to the witches affected by the takeover. As for the wolves... she's not sure what's going on with them. Did they collectively agree to end their alliance with Circle Daybreak or was there a rebellion?

Either way, they live in interesting times.

Sylvia only has one office left and she hasn't been available to most since she's bogged down in talks with her lawyers. Perhaps a chat with a werewolf will be a welcome change of pace.

"Come in," she calls, standing up when she hears the knock at the door. "You must be Laura."

Stepping forward, she holds out her hand, regarding Laura with an appraising look. From the little research she's done, Laura is new to the pack. Interesting that they'd send a new recruit.
