For a thing. JUST IN CASE.

Just in case I need it.

BIRTHDAYS: None

WEATHER: Overcast and gloomy, though temperatures are supposed to be rising over the next few days.

EVENTS: The full moon is tonight, and the crowd gathered outside the school is particularly emotional today. Word is that the authorities are trying to determine whether or not there are any bitten weres inside the school, but unfortunately that information is simply impossible to get without a family member stepping forward. Unsurprisingly, the registered were debate is heavy in the news. Pressure is being put on lawmakers to pass a law that would require all weres to register with the government. It's not the first time this idea has been put forward, either. All in all, tonight's full moon in Scarlet Oak is a very somber experience. Of course the authorities are still offering aid to any bitten were that needs a place to lock up for the night, and there's always Ballard House to turn to for help if needed.

Inside the school, two groups are advancing today. ( Details behind a cut. )

Who: Cat and Lark
When: Afternoon
Where: Streets of Scarlet Oak, near the woods/W Pennington

Lark had been in Scarlet Oak for a while now, and had been lucky enough to be set up with a job fairly quickly. It was housekeeping for the Budget Lodge, which she'd been okay with, but she quickly learned that their terms of housekeeping were... well, extremely lax. Some of the rooms were downright gross, and she'd been yelled at by her manager today for taking too long on one room. It doesn't have to be immaculate, the man had barked at her. Just put things back in order and wipe down the major stains. Lark did what she was told, but she left work feeling like she could shower for an hour and still not be clean enough. The walk back to the shelter helped her cool off, mentally, but she was already wondering how hard it would be to get in at the Hotel di Sei Ali. The idea that it was a 'supernatural resort' didn't even bother her at this point. At least she would probably not feel so much like she was going to catch a disease from every room she entered. She'd be able to take a bus there, too.

Truthfully, Lark didn't mind the walk. Once she crossed the river and got into the more populated part of town there was a bus stop which would take her most of the rest of the way back, but she didn't always bother. Today she might. She'd never really worried about the full moons back home, but the world was going crazy. She felt a stab of anger at her uncle for bringing her brother and sister here. This place was crazy. Sighing heavily, Lark jumped over a puddle at the side of the road, eyes scanning the trees as she walked. This place was crazy, but it was pretty. She had to at least give it that.
