Dude
I'd miss the feeling of running free. Like, for just one night a month, you get to leave all your human stresses and worries behind, like friends and guys and homework, and just run. That rush when you feel like it's just you and the moon and the forest - like you're part of nature, y'know? Part of something bigger. And how your whole body just tingles and feels... alive. Like all your senses are just freaking singing! And that thrill when you catch the scent of a deer or a rabbit and... y'know, you just gotta chase it!
I mean, sure, the shift hurts like hell, but once you're the wolf, once you're free, it's just freaking epic. It makes the pain worth it. Or I think so, at least.
I know people don't all agree, but most of the time they're the ones who lock themselves up on the full and don't let themselves appreciate how amazing it all is.
