Re: [In-person: PJ and Atticus and Matt]
[She stood then, using her good hand and Matt's shoulder to help herself up on shaky legs. Her fingers dug in just a bit to ground herself, or reassure him, or both, as she hesitated to walk toward the stall at all. She stared at it long and hard, had a small inner battle with herself about going in - again she wasn't sure if that was because it was getting closer and closer to nightfall and she was starting to be pushed aside a bit in her own mind. It was important that she walk herself in there, making it clearer and clearer that the choice was hers and not the two men she was with. Every little bit helped, and if she could stop herself from thinking they'd locked her in once she was changed, then they'd all be a little better off.
She let go of Matt's shoulder eventually, and she took the stuffed wolf back in her good arm, gave it a sniff as well as she slipped her feet out of the slip-on sandals she was wearing and stepped over the track that held the sliding door. She felt the hay crunch under her feet and did a quick survey of the stall. The blanket Matt had brought was there, water, meat, everything in good shape. But she didn't move much further in for another few seconds. Once she finally did take a couple of more steps she turned and used her good arm, and any strength she could to slide the door closed in front of her.] I'm about to get super naked, a sight not for the faint of heart; my ass is white and my stomach is a little jiggly.
[Modesty was pretty much out the window in werewolf town, and it didn't bother her at all, but she did have manners and the understanding that for most people a naked lady in a cage was probably something new, super awkward, and legitimately frowned upon. So she did her best to make the disrobing as quick as possible despite only having one good arm to do it. She wrapped the blanket Matt had brought around her shoulders more for their benefit than hers.] Lock the door please.
[She could feel the moment her injuries started to feel better, it wasn't because they were healing, but there was a huge surge of adrenaline that was starting to pump through her veins. It was a little like being high for a moment. She always felt the change start in her fingers and her toes, it would tingle and itch a bit for a moment just in those places before it radiated through the rest of her body until meeting in the middle somewhere and producing a completed shift.
She looked at Matt for a long moment, then over back to Atticus. Remembering their faces, memorizing them, even Atticus who she'd seen time and time again she studied carefully. She smelled the air, looking for their mingled scents, getting comfortable with it, and committing it to whatever parts of her memory, and her wolf's memory that she could. She smiled widely then] You boys behave now, no loud parties. Help yourself to my apartment if you want or need to get away. There's cold beer in the fridges everywhere. Stronger stuff in my liquor cabinet. Popsicles in the freezer. Take what you want from the fill-up station snacks, on the house. I'll see you in the morning.
