Shapeshifters in WWIV: A Roleplay (Celebrating Ten Years!)

((No, I just wasn't sure if Christoph was escaping by himself or if he'd have to be saved.))

"I wish there was a more pleasant spot to walk around, but we're a military base, not park," Archer continued, just to fill the silence.

---

(That could work. Since he's older, maybe there might not have been as many shifters around him when he was growing up, at least in his hometown or service area, so his opinions on both the WK and RK might be that's it's a complete waste of lives and weapons. I kind of like the idea of him being transferred to the RK base, just so we have two characters on different sides have a genuine mutual understanding and friendship with each other through their injuries. )

Destiny smiled and climbed up onto the bed beside him. "It's been okay," she said. "I had breakfast, read a book. Oh! Sabel asked how you were doing, too. She's with Maria, so that's why she isn't here," she replied, feeling herself relax. Before, when he was still in the early stages of recovering, the girl was afraid to do or say too much in case she tired the man. Now, however, she acted as she always around him.

---

"This isn't her fault!" Nichole defended, more concerned on keeping the blame from the girl to notice Donald's slip of name usage. "This is my mistake. I asked her not to say anything because I hadn't planned on shifting when around her or your house. She saw my scar on a day when the make-up had rubbed off. She pieced together the pieces." It was true that none of this was Ava's fault. The lie of how she found out was both to keep Ava as innocent as possible and deflect some of Donald's anger from herself.

---

"Why did they keep you from me?" Christoph asked, his voice wary. He wouldn't know why his father would keep this man a secret from him, but if Diana also failed to mention his existence, then there had to be a very good reason why.

"I understand," said Jennette. It was nice to feel a breeze, even a slight one. She glanced up at the sun, though it was hidden behind the clouds. "Thanks for taking me, anyway."

((That works. Shall we summarize Destiny's visit, to get to that?))

"That's really cool, Destee," he told her, placing one crutch under each arm. "Come on, you can tell me more on the way."

---

Daniel gripped the steering wheel tight, thinking better than to answer directly, at least not while he was still so angry. "You want out? Just say the word, I'll pull over and let you out right now."

---

"Christoph, I'm your grandfather," Möer said, eyes large and desperate, but tone steady. "Won't you give me a chance?"

---

((Is the Faith/Nate thing dead? Should we time skip or leave it for a bit or?

Also sorry these are all so short.))

Jennette stepped out into the courtyard and began a brisk walk around the perimeter. She didn't much feel like running with her hands bound in front of her, but it was nice to stretch her legs. She looked up at the sky as she walked, frustrated that she couldn't just shift into a bird and leave.

((Tom: you haven't missed much in Aspen's storyline. Viktoriya and Louis talked a bit, and Viktoriya is about to show Louis where she lives. We paused there to wait for a response from Aspen. Really it all just took place in a few posts on the previous page, so you can read through those pretty quickly.))

((I don't know how much success or fun you'll have Rping a character who just likes to stay on her own, Tom. I'm drawing a total blank as to how to make Aspen relevant. Maybe a second character is in order?))

(Sure!)

"Okay!" Destiny said, hopping down from the bed. She turned to Kurt to see if he needed any help getting up.

---

Nichole fell silent. Of course, she didn't want him to drop her off somewhere on her own. Someone had found out she was a shifter. Who knows if the guy had a partner. If she left or Donald left her behind, there would be no one to save her if she was found again. So she stopped herself before she got too far on the man's bad side.

---

Christoph hesitated at the question. He was confused and scared about the turn of events, but there was a part of him that thought maybe his grandfather wasn't too bad. "W-will we at least see her again soon?" he asked.

---

(If you want to skip with Nate and Faith, we can.)

---

Archer walked beside her, but with a good distance between them. He was only close enough to still have a conversation and keep a close eye on her in case anything happened.

"No, it's suppose to stay like this for the ext few days," Archer replied. "It won't be fun to be out in, I can guarantee that."

"I do leave the base every now and then," Archer said with a small smile. "The base is a barrel of fun, but they don't have the best drinks. A few of us head out once a week as a break."

"Oh, yes, of course," Jennette nodded. "I guess I forgot you'd do that. When I lived here, I was a bit too young to go out just for fun."

((Tom: okay. I guess Icestar and I will continue with that storyline and go to Viktoriya's home, and you can jump in if you decide you want to.))

Jennette smiled sadly for a moment as she remembered how Caleb, a few years younger than herself and Felix, used to get on her nerves. "Did you grow up here, or did you join more recently?" she asked, still recalling her own time with the RK.

((Okay. Maybe Aspen could be realizing that if she doesn't join forces with someone soon, she'll get caught? Just a WIP Idea.))

((Sounds cool!))

((How would they know she's in trouble though?))
