[open] this island is full of free dogs

Who: Erika, Chip, and YOU
What: it’s a full moon and Erika is a werewolf, you can probably guess where this is going
When: night of January 31
Where: all over Ensō
Warnings: potential for violence? Also bad babysitting practices

closed to Chip

One might think it would be hard getting used to this sudden, monthly change in perspective - both mental and physical. By the time the change is done, everything seems a whole lot smaller, and a whole lot simpler.

Being trapped on an extradimensional island with no idea of when you'll get home, if ever, is a lot less stressful when you don’t have the capacity for existential dread.

Erika shakes out her fur and lopes over to Chip to bump them with her nose, the gesture friendly if a bit forceful. Moderating strength can be hard when you’re an enormous dogbeast dealing with a small child.

A - OTA (ft. Chip)

There’s something big and heavy moving around in the woods.

It’s not moving particularly fast, just trotting through the trees, giving out the occasional chuff and snort as it noses around in the foliage. Oddly enough, someone who listens carefully might hear the occasional hint of a young-sounding human voice, like a child responding to the creature’s sounds.

And then the whatever-it-is speeds up, loping through the trees, and a vaguely canine creature, closer in size to a large bear than a dog or hyena, bursts from the foliage - with a small child clinging to its back.

This is probably fine.

B- OTA (just Erika)

So at some point Chip got left… somewhere??? She’s not sure where, and hasn’t thought to worry about it in a while because dogs aren’t great babysitters when it comes down to it, but they’re not… anywhere in her vicinity.

Which is, now that she’s realizing it, probably an issue.

Erika snuffles around the foliage, her ears pinned back - and, upon, running into anyone else, goes very still. She doesn’t move any closer to them yet, but cranes her neck forward to try and get a better whiff of whoever it is.

(( OOC: SO as you can see Erika is temporarily an enormous dog-hyena-thing, because sometimes that just happens. If you want more info or to plot something out, contact me at [plurk.com profile] omixgirl10 or Chip’s player at [plurk.com profile] Gryphcat (or on the discord server, that works too) ))

Chip had been facing away while Erika waited for the transformation to strike, but when they hear her move past the bushes they turn back around--just in time for her to practically headbutt them. They let out a startled yelp and fall onto their rear, but laugh and reach up to scratch behind her ears anyway.

"Hey, I'm gonna tell Dad you were pushing me around!"
demonpuppy: i on the other hand am constantly thinking, various thoughts and ideas, as a genius of intelligents ("i don't think..." yeah you don't think)

(That's the joke, son! Ya missed it!)

Chip pushes their forehead against hers, and scrambles back up to their feet when she draws back again. They waste little time in jumping up onto her back, though they try to not tug too hard on her fur. Their few months with Grant had let them become used to interacting with him, but on full moons all HE ever wanted to do was lick their face and snuggle with them to sleep.

Tonight? They will ride.

"How fast can you run?"

Well, now that there aren't crazy shadow monsters running around and one of his friends is temporarily down for the count, Magnus is taking this whole island business a lot more seriously. Which also means that there's a lot of to think about, a lot of stuff he spent most of the month just...not thinking about, which in turn means that sleep isn't so much a thing in these last couple of days.

So, he falls into an old habit: excising. A little jog in the middle of he night to help clear his head.

At some point, after a while of running around, he stops to catch his breath, leaning against his knees and panting. It takes him a while to notice anyone else in the area - which is marked by the fact that, when he goes to wipe his forehead, he happens to look up and half freeze when he notices a large furry thing staring right back at him.

"Huh..."

Well then.

"...hhheeeello?"

she boof!!

Oh, don't worry. Magnus has dealt with big furry things before! And he's kicked their ass! ...well, mostly.

But maybe there's no need to fight. He also only brought his small hatchet with him, which, huh. Maybe was a bad idea?

"You, hah....you friendly, big guy?"

The hatchet hands from Magnus's belt, but he doesn't feel the need to reach for it (yet, at least), specially when the monster sits down. He watches it, curious, since it doesn't seem to be making any moves to attack him.

"Huh...okay."

After pausing for a couple of seconds, he takes some careful steps towards it, hands held in front of him to show that he doesn't mean any harm.

Because only Magnus would approach a werewolf in the woods.

"It's okay..." He talks quietly and softly, vaguely hoping he won't lose a hand in this process.

Keeping that thought, he doesn't get right up on her space. He stops about 5 feet from her, hands still clearly out in a show of friendliness. She might be a werewolf, but he's taking his experience from how to approach a dog...because of course he is.

"You're not so bad, are you, big guy?" Why must he do this with every canine-like creature?
