Re: Rec Center: Steve/Janus/Atticus
[The wolf was confused by Janus. Saw something different than what Atticus saw. Smelled something different than either of those things. The wolf liked things to make sense. The wolf did not like it when things didn't match up. Was bad enough the air around him was always cold. Was bad enough there were rotting things everywhere he could see. He cocked his head as if he could understand what the men were saying. Couldn't understand, but there was something like comprehension in amber gaze.
Steve sounded commanding. The wolf snapped, dripped saliva and snarled. He took a few steps forward, then back. Didn't lunge. Didn't attack. It growled again at Janus. GROWL. And then it turned tail and ran in the other direction, toward the orchards behind the rec center. Would go hide with the woman who had the food. Remembered her.]
