So a vague notice went up a couple days ago about attacks in the hallways and warning of mind control.

Captain Ryan’s not a big fan of mind control, despite never having been subjected to it himself. Still, that someone is running around causing trouble, yet again, and Security can’t seem to stop it, yet again, has put him in a rather grumpy mood.

The nervous werewolf knew better than to go poking anybody growly. Especially a fellow wolf. Well, he might poke Tully, but he had his own reasons to do so. He was extra twitchy on account of being Bound at the moment too.

He glanced over and then asked, "How can you stare at it for so long? I always feel half sick after two minutes."

[captainryan]

Ryan looked at the speaker, making eye contact before blinking.

"Fireworks," he says simply. If he thinks of them as fireworks, it never seems as much a problem.

[zeevofbristol]

He considered that, and then nodded, "I suppose. Still some of them seem awfully swirly for fireworks. More so when it loops."

[captainryan]

He arches an eyebrow at the other 'wolf.

"Then don't watch it for so long." Simple!

[zeevofbristol]

"I don't. Just surprised that anybody would," George stated, just managing not to have a nervous whine to his voice.

[captainryan]

Puppy, part of Ryan thinks. Or Omega. Someone not high up, therefore not a threat. The alpha relaxes a bit.

"I don't treat like a telly, either."

[zeevofbristol]

More of a puppy perhaps. He's only been one for a few years now. Got potential for an Alpha if he really tried. Problem was more he wasn't used to being in packs.

"Right, right, of course," he fidgeted with his hands out in front of him from where he was sitting at a table. There was a stack of books next to him, and a cooling mug of tea.

[captainryan]

Ryan's only been infected for a few years as well. But then, he was an alpha to begin with.

He looks the fellow over, noting the glasses. Curious, that. "You've been coming here a while," he says neutrally.

[zeevofbristol]

As the moon waned, he needed them more. Scents weren't as strong as last week even. He didn't mind it really.

George nodded, "A few months now. First time the door went away though." Hence the fidget nature and restlessness.

[captainryan]

"Mm. I've never had that problem."

If George is getting scent, there's a tinge of bitterness to that, but old. It's something Ryan's well used to by now, and not nearly so bad since his mate has access to a library of worlds.

"It'll come back, unless you're dead. Or if it really doesn't like you."

[zeevofbristol]

"Not dead, and I didn't do anything to it." Why would a door hate him? He's just opened and closed it normally. Hasn't ever slammed it even.

There was a faint whiff of one, but he only paid the slightest attention to it.

"Heard it could be weeks or months though. That happen often around here?"

[captainryan]

"I knew one person who's original door never came back. She eventually found another world, though."

If you were hoping for comfort, we're afraid that's not going to happen.

[zeevofbristol]

His face paled, and he actually skittered back in his seat, "Are you serious?! NEVER?" And there goes the high pitched yelp in his voice, knew that was coming.

Sometimes George seems like the last person you'd ever consider to be a wolf. Because he is.

[captainryan]

Up goes the eyebrow because, yeah, this guy's a werewolf? Really? He's never met one so... skittish.

"Yes, I'm serious." He's eyeing the other a bit warily, now.

[zeevofbristol]

George blinked rapidly several times, and he held up one of his hands in front of him in a pleading gesture as he sputtered, "But-but-but that shouldn't be possible! It sounds like some bizarre space prison!"

[captainryan]

Ryan shifts in his seat, blinking a bit.

"I don't make the rules," he says flatly. "And it's not as though you can't visit other worlds."
