Enter Loki.

Actually, please don't. Especially if it involves a chainsaw. Just...stare at him, since he's pretty. Or, you know, talk to him. That would work too. Because he just came into the bar and he's sitting just at the end of it nursing a cup of tea.

"So, you know I'm a werewolf, right?"

He holds up the syringe.

"I'm supposed to take this stuff sometime before the stroke of midnight on my first full moon. But I don't know when other than that, or if it has any side-effects."

He peers at it, and then seems to be looking at something not exactly there. There's something of a guilty look on his face as he does it, but he's done much worse and the vampire will forgive him should he ever find out once he knows the reason for such an invasion. Finally, he looks to Richard.

"Take it in wolf form, and there isn't much more to it than sticking you and pushing the plunger. As for side effects, it seems to make you weak for a few days, but...my information says nothing about anything more."

"All right. That must be why it's so big. I'll ask Bernard for a couple of days off after that."

He sighs and leans against Loki.

"David said that we could use Lestat's basement. That I shouldn't be able to get out of it. And Remus said that there is a potion that will help me keep my mind during the change."

He nods.

"I'll be there, as I told you previously. Though... I wouldn't mix potions. Two things in your blood at once might have undue reactions."

"You're probably right. I just don't want to hurt anyone."

"You won't."

He smirks.

"I take care of my own, Richard. I think I can keep a werewolf out of trouble for a few hours."

He smiles and sighs in relief.

"Good. Thank you. Will Amadeo be able to be there, or should I send him to Tokyo with David?"

"However you wish things to go, Richard. It's up to you."

"I want Amadeo and David to be there with me, if it's safe for them."

He nods.

"It certainly will be. And it'll be good to have them nearby for afterwards."

"Good, that's what I'd like."

Much softer now.

"Will it hurt?"

He nods.

"It's still a bloody large needle going into you. But...I'll ease things as I can. Pain management...not my forte."

*nods*

"All right. And the transformation itself?"

He shrugs.

"Such things are really Odin's line of work...beserkers and all...but I'll do what I can. I'm sorry, Richard, it's a little...out of my jurisdiction."

*nods*rests his head on Loki's shoulder*

"Thank you for being there for us."

A soft hand run down his hair and neck and back, soft and warm.

"Always, my Richard, always."

He smiles a soft little smile.

"I don't have many...but those I have are those to treasure and I surely do."

He smiles and nuzzles.

"I think you're the best God I've ever had. Certainly the most attentive."

"What can I say? What else've I got to do but look out for the three of you?"

"Well, us and your family."

He laughs.

"That...goes without saying."

He smiles at Richard.

"Have you met Youji, by any chance?"

"No, can't say that I have."

He nods.

"Very sweet boy, a charmer...but very unfortunate past. Lots of problems, that one, and I'm working on him slowly."

He'll not tell Richard what went on in that room upstairs. That's between him and Youji. He also doesn't want to scare him. What he is...can be frightening at times, but Richard will probably never see that part.

"But if you see him, let him know you're one of mine. I think David might have oonfused him a bit, considering our relationship is a little...more than just that of God and Follower."

"I think of David as more your Consort than a Follower."

*nods*

"But yes, I'll look for Youji and tell him who I am."

"Consort? He's getting a title now? Hm...I thought the title of 'David' was special enough."

A small, sly grin.

"But thank you about Youji. He really is a lovely man...just..problems."

*laughs*

"I suppose David is enough. Means Beloved anyway."

*nods*

"What does Youji look like?"
