Pack Meeting
Characters: Micah and OPEN TO ALL WEREWOLVES
Setting: Hospital Chapel, just after 10pm

Micah had watched them file in, the variety of patients in a variety of states. He'd chosen to sit up on the makeshift altar, not that a non denominational chapel would really have an altar, but it did. After a while, when he was sure no one else was going to drift in he stood up, watching them, meeting their eyes before giving a smile a shot.

"Thanks for coming," he said. "I think this is all of us, for now at least. Anyone who didn't come by, I'll go find them later." He shifted his weight for a moment before jumping into things.

"I know all of you are feeling weird. Heightened sense of smell, heightened hearing, things like that," he said looking around the room. "Maybe even some tweaks to your personality, and you're probably all running a fever. I know because I'm going through the same thing." He smiled again, feeling more like the doctor and standing up a little straighter. They will listen to you. They need you. The voice was in the back of his head reassured him.

"I've looked through everything and the answer, it's strange. But things are strange these days. Any of us who saw the zombies know that. That said. I think we're werewolves. Or we will be turning into them. It explains the quick healing, it explains the senses all of it. It's ridiculous, but there's been other weird things happening. It's not just us." He shrugged a little.

"That said, you can believe me or not. I can't prove it one way or another. But I can tell you that there's people out there that want to keep us in line. They'll hunt us if we step out of line, just like they did the zombies. We need to prepare. We need to stick together."

"If this is real, then I don't want to repress it. I want to use it," Eli said, arms crossed over his chest defensively. "There's got to be some perks that come with being a werewolf, right? Those would be nice in a fight." It was just like him to be thinking of fighting even while he knew he couldn't, but his ability to defend himself and those around him was high on Eli's list. After dinner with Corey and Serge, Eli knew there were other dangers out there. Vampires, supposedly, though he didn't know how many or how dangerous they were. He was supposed to report them to Serge, but the idea of doing so still bothered him, even if he'd committed to do so.

"Where are you guys getting your information from?" he asked, looking from Jack to Micah. What he really wanted to ask was if they knew something else that led them to jump to this conclusion. Werewolf was a pretty big jump, but it wasn't half as big if they'd already had vampires proven to them.

Micah didn't even look at Jack. Instead he took three steps towards Patrick. "Don't listen to him," he said waving Jack away. "You shouldn't leave, but this isn't an all or nothing kind of thing. If you need help, we will still help. One set of us causes issues, all the others are at risk." How was that so hard for them to see.

"You weren't fine when you walked out of here. Don't even lie to me. And super healing might not include staff infections," Micah informed Jack.

"I'm not telling anyone to repress anything beyond something that could hurt others and possible put targets on all of our backs. This isn't something that can be useful in a fight Eli," he said looking at the youngest among them. A kid. Damn. "There's nothing to fight against. We're in a dome not some bad television show. And we need to stick together."

Lochlan stood when Micah moved toward Patrick. He didn't square his shoulders or move even but he was ready to step in if it came to that. "Pat, I think they're all bonkers. And if 'werewolf,'" he said with air quotes before folding his arms across his chest, "is a thing, I don't know any of them. I know you though. I'm with you. If you want to leave, I'm going too."

Because Lochlan just wasn't buying it. It felt like someone was pranking him and playing to his weaknesses to make a joke. Werewolves. Come on. This wasn't one of those horrible old Twilight movies. This was reality. Sure zombies were part of it but that was some virus gone wrong, right? Science. Not magic. And whatever was happening to them was also science. He could just imagine Avery's reaction to that. She'd scoff. He was scoffing. He glanced around at the others and he was more convinced than ever that O'Reilly's closing ranks was the best bet.

Patrick shook his head, appreciating having Lochlan step up when Micah came over. Nothing in Patrick thought he couldn't take Micah on alone, but it just felt right to have Lochlan there, ready.

"You're all fucking crazy and if you want to battle your crazy out amongst yourselves, fine by me, but I am not a part of this. We are not a part of this," He said, looking back at Lochlan. He felt fine speaking for him considering that it just felt like he should be. "Maybe if this is real and we're werewolves, we'll actually help when your pack needs it too. Maybe. But I sure as hell am not bending a knee to either of you."

It seemed like anything Justin said flew right over everyone's heads, and they wanted to bustle and puff their chests out. Might as well whip the cocks out and compare sizes too. Justin felt annoyed by the entire situation, though less at Micah than the others, since the guy seemed to want to help more than anything.

"If you leave," Justin said toward Patrick and Lochlan, "stay away from your loved ones around the full. You don't want to be regretting this the morning after."
