Delvin climbs into his Jeep and hands over the bag. "I to add a few more things inside the bag." He answered as he starts his Jeep up. "Now time to head to your new home!"

Jack let out a quiet breath of laughter as he took the bag and reached over to place it in the back seat. His new home. It still sounded a bit silly, but it sure beats sleeping in a motel every night. The two drove on in silence for a while before Jack finally broke it. “What’s… What’s it like to transform?”

(So I could have sworn, I typed a reply and hit send but I guess not lol)
Delvin considers this for a moment before speaking. "Well, it's strange to say the least. I won't lie to you when you first change it will be painful. Afterwards, that feeling turns into being uncomfortable then before you know it the feeling is natural. Sometimes, it depends on the person."

(No worries! Happened to me a few times in other threads lol)
“Does it happen suddenly? Like one minute you fine and the next your body’s contorting and breaking and changing,” Jack asked a little too quickly, there was a bit of fear in his voice.

"No nothing like that." Delvin said hearing the fear in his voice. "It's kind of like a build up. You start feeling restless, pacing back and forth and you feel this need to run. This is your animal side coming out ready to hunt and sink your jaws into whatever happens to be nearby. Best thing you can do is to not fight it."

The younger man nodded and looked back out the window. He probably should heed Delvin’s advice, but he had no intention of not fighting it if he was a werewolf. He was going to do his damnedest to not turn into a violent beast. Though, he’d suppose that it was a relief that it was gradual and not sudden. “How do you not lose your mind? We’re you always accepting of it?”

"More or less." Delvin answered as he drives down the street. "Everyone in my family are werewolves so it was only natural that I be one too." He didn't really have a choice in the matter. "I find it liberating to be honest. There is nothing like running through the forest at top speed with nothing but your instincts to guide you."

“To each their own, I suppose,” he said with an empty, yet good-natured laugh. Made sense that there would be a few running around who embrace it without question. The pain in his leg grew sharp, making it uncomfortable to stay in the car for so long. He shifted in his seat to relieve some of it. “Whatever happens, just promise me you won’t let it hurt anyone.”

"I promise." Delvin answered as they leave the city behind them. He turns down a dirt road that seemed to go on forever before going through a large black gate. Suddenly the forest opened into a open area where there were various houses scattered everywhere. Some were modest houses and others looked like rustic cabins. As they drove down the road, there were some people and werecreatures milling about.
"Welcome to the pack." Delvin says glancing over to give him a smile. He drives up to a large looking mansion that looked a little out of place with all the other houses. Delvin parks his Jeep near some expensive looking cars and parks it.

(Yay! Jack gets to meet new friends!)
Jack’s eyes grew wide as he took in the mansion. It was bigger than he had imagined! The sight of the other were-creatures about- some were staring and some were not- were making him a bit nervous. Could they be able to tell? Could they scent that he might not be human?
Cautiously, he opened the passenger door and positioned his crutches. Once he was out of the car he hobbled over to the back seat to grab his things and his meds before turning to Delvin.

(I plan on making a girly to be apart of the cure squad though rn it's cure duo)
Delvin climbs out of his car and walks over to him. "Welcome to your new home." He answered grinning at him. A few people walk over curious about the new person. Delvin notices walking over and gives them a nod. "So what are your current thoughts?"

(Ooohh! Hyped to see what you come up with!)
To be honest to himself, it was overwhelming, but he wasn’t about to tell Delvin, not after the kindness he had shown him. “It’s certainly a beautiful property,” and he was telling the truth. The property made Jack feel… safe. It was somehow intimidating and reassuring to have so many people around. He risked a quick glance at some of the gathering crowd, wondering how many are already a part of the family and how many were strays like him.

"That it is." Delvin says as he places his hands into his pockets. He glances at the people moving in closer. "Keep back, we don't want to scare him. Let's head into the mansion for a little bit. We got to get you into your new home." He begins walking towards the mansion like it was just a normal day.

Jack tried to follow Delvin’s lead, trying to match his casual pace. Well.. As casual as you can be with crutches. It’ll be an adjustment and he definitely felt like an outsider. Even more so with his tatter clothes. He wondered if Delvin told the pack about his attack or if his appearance gave it away. God… What a day…
He hobbled after the pack leader, feeling everyone’s burning gaze behind his back.

(Mmm good question. I'm going to say it's like a week away)
Delvin holds the door open for Jack before continuing to the main area. "Come and sit on the couch. I need to grab a few things." The living room area was huge to say the least. There was a mix of gray, white and brown colored furniture that looked spotless.

Jack hobbles over and all but melts into the seat of the couch. He sets the crutches aside and looks around the room. The room seemed absolutely massive and spotless. It gave off a cozy energy and he could imagine the family regularly congregating here. The brief peace away from all those eyes caused his own to feel heavy once again, but he remained awake, waiting for Delvin or anyone to return.

Teagan who happened to be in the kitchen stops when she smells someone new.. She makes her way into the main area and sees a stranger sitting on one of the couches. She looked confused before remembering this must be the guy from the attack. Teagan takes a moment to check herself before walking over to introduce herself. "Well, you look like hell."
(At first, I was gonna have some kids bother him but figured Jack needed an adult. At least for now lol)

“Feel a bit like it too,” he croaked, his tired pale blue eyes spotting someone approaching his field of vision. It was woman, one that appeared to be a bit older than him. He was once again self-conscious about his appearance, sitting there in the same tattered clothes he was attacked in and practically looking like death warmed over. He forced himself to sit up straighter in the woman’s company, not wanting to be rude. “I’m sure Delvin told you about me..”
(Oh by all means I am more than happy to have a gang of children harassing the poor guy haha)

"He has that must have been a terrifying experience." Teagan remarked. She hoped the rogue would be found and justice could be served. "Can I get you anything? We have lots of different drinks stocked up, the same goes for the food. A lot of people have different tastes."

“Um… Water would be great, actual,” Jack murmured, throat suddenly feeling dry. At least he could take his pain meds.”I actually don’t remember anything from it really. I was just taking a walk in the woods, heard howling, and was in and out of a coma for a few days until I woke up this morning. I don’t know if that’s better, though.”

"Better that you don't remember." Teagan walks back into the kitchen and grabs a water from the fridge. Walking back, she hands it over to him. "I'm assuming Delvin gave you the whole spiel about werewolves and the back? Otherwise this would be really awkward."

“He did,” Jack nodded as he took the water, “I’m trying to hold on to hope that I got lucky and it really was just a normal wolf or something.”
The young man took his dose of medicine before continuing, “I haven’t really had any changes yet, you know? The only thing that’s been odd is that I’ve been healing relatively fast for how mauled I was and that my hearing was really sharp when I woke up. I’m trying to convince myself I’m fine, it’s all I’ve got right now,” he confessed as he anxiously tapped his fingers on the glass. So far he hadn’t really experienced any stereotypical changes. He sense of smell hadn’t changed and he didn’t violently crave raw meat. Perhaps some of it was a gradual change. And maybe the raw meat thing was just his anxiety talking. God he was a mess, and he was sure the woman standing near him could sense it.

"Having a healing factor has it's perks." Teagan remarked. "As for the changes, they will develop over the next few days. The closer we get the full moon the more intense it gets. I know you were told this before but you are going to be okay. We will not let you hurt yourself or anyone else."

Jack’s body gave a slight shudder. The very thought of the actual danger he may become terrified him to no end. Yet for some reason, he trusted these strangers to keep it in line, to make sure it didn’t kill anyone. Maybe it was a developing wolf trait that he had trust, he didn’t know. “Thanks. I appreciate it.”

Delvin takes this moment to walk in. "I see you met Teagan." He remarked as he walks over and sits down next to him. Teagan gives him a smile. "Yup just came in to get something when I noticed him."

Jack nodded to Delvin, “She was just going over what’s to be expected with… You know…” He awkwardly took another sip of his water.

[ Hi, I really like the concept of this RP and hope a werehyena would be okay to join with-- since I read non-native were-creatures would be allowed but didn't see anything like it..! ;w; ] Name: Juneau Deresse
Nicknames: June, June Bug [reserved for close friends/family]
Description: A young woman with fair almond skin and light brown coily hair. Her eyes are a cocoa brown and she has soft facial features, standing at 5'9". She prefers wearing flannel shirts or cardigans with a tank top underneath, along with baggy jeans or sweatpants. Juneau also likes to accessorize, often putting things like flower or star clips in her hair and tying it back into a ponytail covered with a bandana. Age: 22 What you are: Were-Creature [Hyena] Creature Description: Both her bipedal and feral form appear as a large spotted hyena with hazel eyes and light golden brown fur with dark brown splotches littered across her body. Her bipedal form retains some of her thick, curly hair-- and although it's much wilder in this state some of her hair accessories may also remain. Personality: Juneau is a warm and optimistic woman who tries to see the best of things, if only to distract her from her tendency to overthink, hold grudges, and internalize things. She can be a bit awkward and shy on an initial meeting, but will quickly warm up to those she regularly sees and they'll find her personality takes a total shift. Juneau is loud and passionate around these people, always eager to come to their aid and cheer them up. She cares deeply and takes things to heart, this being seen as both a positive and negative thing in her own opinion. Because of the generally negative outlook most people have on hyenas, Juneau is more than a little insecure about who she is-- even though there are times she finds genuine joy in being one. Background: The daughter of a Werelion mother and Werehyena father that left their pride and clan, respectively, due to the two groups being bitter rivals. The family moved to Oregon when she was a child, though they opted to live in the more densely populated city of Portland. As Juneau grew older she became more distant from her family, often butting heads with her mother and her father not sticking up for her during these fights. This culminated into an explosive argument that had Juneau finally shift into her were-form from the pent up anger and feeling of being misunderstood, a moment that should have been freeing marred by bitter emotions. In the following months, Juneau began packing up her things and planned on moving out, settling on Griffindale. Having only lived in the small city for about two months, she hasn't made too much of a name for herself but found work in a local shop that sells all sorts of quirky gifts and souvenirs, also being allowed to sell some of her own works in the shop. Some of her work is inspired by her experiences and often included imagery that might clue other were-creatures in on that fact she's one of them, but she isn't aware of other were-creatures within Griffindale. Family: Nikki Deresse [Mother], Gianni Deresse [Father] Romantic Interests: N/A, Bisexual [open] Other: Juneau is an artist, dabbling a bit in all medias. She mainly sells prints and jewelry at the shop she works for. As a werehyena she isn't too different from standard were-creatures in terms of abilities. Key differences would be the stronger jaws and stomach that typical hyenas have, cunning nature and problem solving skills, and potentially a "laugh" that can inspire terror or hysteria in others. [ I'm open to suggestions or changes when it comes to werehyenas, as this is your RP!! I just wanted to offer some of my own ideas as well =w= ]
also, rawr x3
