[kitty_the_wolf]

Kitty loves Fridays. She also hates them. When the show starts...oh, man. That's the top of the world. That's perfection and beauty and grit and she feels like God. Waiting for the show to start is as bad as waiting for the full moon to rise.

That's why her coffee is decaf, and her (rare) steak has as many fork-holes as bites from it.

"Something wrong with the food?" Max asks with a broad grin as he stops beside her. His smile suggests that he knows just how lame an opening line that is, but also that he doesn't care.

Kitty looks up at him with a grin that says she knows it too, but she'll let him get away with it this time, "Not even, it's just Friday night and that means pre-show nerves."

[furiousmaximus]

"Pre-show nerves?" he repeats, an eyebrow raised curiously.

[kitty_the_wolf]

"I host a talk show." Kitty explains, "And my guest tonight is a patron from here. I'm on pins and needles to find out how the audience is going to react."

[furiousmaximus]

Max laughs and admits, "I have no idea what a talk show is."

[kitty_the_wolf]

"Oof." Kitty grins and gestures to a chair, "Well, do you know what radio is?"

[furiousmaximus]

"I've heard the term, but beyond that, not really." He doesn't seem all that bothered by his ignorance as he grins, looks Kitty up and down rather pointedly, and takes the chair.

Kitty was looking him up and down, so that works. "Okay...in a nutshell, radio is God's gift to the common man. It allows us to send sound over extremely long distances...hundreds of miles. You can get all kinds of programs on it, usually music. Then there ar people like me. We talk. My show, the Midnight Hour, is all about the things that live in the darkness and go 'bump' in the night."

[furiousmaximus]

"Like the monsters that steal bad little children from their beds in the night?" Max has found that that's an almost-universal sort of monster around here, even if the details of precisely what it is change.

[kitty_the_wolf]

"Mostly werewolves, vampires, the people who want to be us, and the people who want to kill us." Kitty admits, "I haven't had any calls about monsters-under-the-bed yet."

[furiousmaximus]

"Us?" Max asks with a raised eyebrow. He may spend a lot of time looking unobservant, but sometimes he slips up and lets people know he's paying attention.

[kitty_the_wolf]

"I'm a werewolf." Kitty admits without shame, "The name came first. My world's only out-of-the-closet celebrity werewolf."

[furiousmaximus]

Max rubs his chin thoughtfully, "That means you change shape during the full moon?" He's mostly familiar with certain British werewolves around the bar, really.

[kitty_the_wolf]

"I have to change shape the night of the full moon, but I can at any time I want." Kitty says comfortably, "I'm a big brown wolf who would far rather run away from people than attack them."

[furiousmaximus]

"Are you as good-looking a wolf as you are a woman?" Max asks with a smirk.

[kitty_the_wolf]

"My best friend was gay," Kitty says with only a little bit of pain. She's not over TJ's death, but she's keeping her mourning mostly to her howls, "so he never exactly let me know."
