Some werewolves become half-man, half-wolf hybrids. Some become indistinguishable from normal wolves. Kitty's type? Conservation of mass at work: she's exactly as heavy a wolf as she is a woman...but not nearly as moon-bound as the ones who usually run these woods.

That's why she's picked today to check out the grounds, when the moon isn't full and nobody has to change. Her body language says I'm not a threat, I'm just looking, I won't hunt and she's paying attention to things.

People are things too! She'd be pleased to meet you!

Ella loves the outdoors more than any other part of Milliways.

As such, she's wandering outside, a loose white gown flowing around her frame and making her look more like a ghost than anything else.

She's humming under her breath, and her feet are bare.

She stops upon spotting Kitty, eying her curiously. She's never seen a transformed werewolf at all, let alone an actual wolf. Although she's unable to read canine body language, Ella's general state of mind involves an incredible amount of naivete, so she is only the slightest bit cautious as she approaches.

"Hello!"

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty's (Wolf's, she'd say) tail wags back and forth in the manner of a playful dog, and she bows down with her butt in the air.

[a-day-of-sky.livejournal.com]

And Ella crouches down, wrapping one arm around her knees and putting her other hand forward, palm-up.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Cold wet nose in her palm, snuffling, then Kitty lays down and blinks up at the young woman. She smells new! New is interesting!

[a-day-of-sky.livejournal.com]

That draws a laugh out of Ella (it tickles!), and she sets about introducing herself.

"My name's Ella," she starts, perfectly frank, "Ella Harkins. Have you been here long?"

Might as well ask yes or no questions, she supposes.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty, as the wolf, doesn't get English as much as a human. There is a moment of the canine Huh? expression before she gets the idea...and then a careful wag of her head from left to right.

[a-day-of-sky.livejournal.com]

Ella remembers hearing vague things about werewolves -- nothing conclusive, but figures that since she hasn't been eaten yet, that's not going to happen anytime soon.

"Hmm," is her only response to that, before putting out her hand again (this time palm-down) in a scritchings? sort of gesture.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty's head-fur is very soft. Just in case Ella was wondering. It's pretty clear, seeing as she's got her head under the fingers and is rotating it to make the scritches start, yes, please, thank you!

[a-day-of-sky.livejournal.com]

Sooooooft and fuuuuzzyyyyyyy.

Ella approves, and it's not long before Ella has given up on crouching and simply sits down, crosslegged, both hands on the wolf.







Sooooooft and fuuuuzzyyyyyyy.

Just because you can change doesn't always mean that you change. Or doesn't mean you change at the same time as others. Take Elizabeth for example. She can change when ever, and yet she's currently in human form. Deeper in the woods than more tend to travel alone, and sitting under a tree.

She smells of human naturally, and of feline. Leopard if one knows how to distinguish those different strands of feline. There might be the faintest hints of blood as well, hours old and definitely animal. She'd hunted earlier in fur, spent most of the day of it. But now she's just relaxing.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty just gets cat out of all of it. But she whuffs a greeting, with splayed ears and a casually wagging tail. No offense here, no sir, just a nice little omega wolf in the woods. Ayup.

[boundxkitty]

She holds a hand out in an almost wave, almost an 'I hold no weapon'. Not that having a weapon matters for Elizabeth, as she's deadly enough on her own. She's hunted with wolves, so seeing one does nothing to phase her. Just watch curiously to see what this one will do.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Wag again, apparently, make another greeting whuff, and trot about three feet away. Then turn, tilt her head, and repeat.

It means, roughly, wanna go for a walk?

[boundxkitty]

Elizabeth's fairly good at picking up on hints. Which means she's up and closer to the wolf in one graceful and quick movement. There's a pause when she reaches the wolf to hold her hand out, because greeting is always good. "I'm Elizabeth."

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty snuffles Elizabeth's hand and...wags again. Then play-bows. Her vocabulary is pretty limited like this. (Unless you speak wolf. Then she's saying, I'm Kitty. Yes, really.)

[boundxkitty]

She's very, very rusty with her wolf. She'd learned it back when Jason was her hunting partner, because being able to communicate while hunting is a good thing. And yet, it's hard not to do a double take at that, swearing she's understood wrong and she's way more rusty than she thought she was. Which is why there's a confused look from Elizabeth.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty, Kitty says again, trying to get her tail to contort like a house cat. And then bumping Elizabeth in the thigh. Kitty, get it?

[nitro-is-ace.livejournal.com]

Ace doesn't go outside at night on full moon nights. For one, it'd make Spoon nervous knowing she did that.

For two, she really hates getting treed. It sucks.

So she really wasn't out looking for a fight when she waltzed out of the TARDIS (valtzed, really, Spoon's still trying to get her to learn the waltz, but the valtz is a sneakier way) and paused to lock the door.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

That makes two of them. Kitty makes an I'm here! Don't step on me! noise and backs up so as to not get kicked by the woman who walked out of the tree.

She'll go o.O over that when she's human.

[nitro-is-ace.livejournal.com]

Ace will go o.O right now, if that's okay with the wolf.

"... Good grief. S'like a regular zoo 'round here. You're new." She notes, once she's decided that she doesn't need to run for her life.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty splays her ears and play-bows. She's not dangerous! Really! Then she barks; one-two-three.

Third time here.

[nitro-is-ace.livejournal.com]

". . ."

"Don't tell me Spoon got you in on this dancin' thing too. I am allowed t'do it on m'own sometimes. Honest." She informs the wolf, looking rather bemused, because that barking sounded an awful lot like marking time.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

You says this expression, are cracked. Kitty shakes her head roughly from side to side, points her nose at the bar and goes "BARK!", then looks at Ace.

Then the bar, "BARK." then Ace.

Then the bar, "BARK!" then Ace.

[nitro-is-ace.livejournal.com]

"... Callin' y'friends?" Ace can't tell if this is a good thing, or a bad thing, but she does wish a few of the bigger of the dog pack back home were here.

Like, say, Rasia. And Stepan.

[kitty-the-wolf.livejournal.com]

Kitty lays down on the ground and puts both paws over her nose. This is a facepalm.
