-It's a full moon out. And you hear a definite, distinct howling.

And normally this would be a frightening, hair raising horror. Because werewolves are scary, right? But something about this just sounds... lonesome.

For those on the ship, there's something cool about watching her take up a perch, howling at the moon's elegant light. Some might even say she looks gorgeous in that light, in spite of how she tries to hide how furry she gets during the full moon...

Though eventually, she realizes that she had meant to put something else in the journal, before her instincts took over. At least none of them could see her, but... Hopefully no one would ask what that was.-

Um... Can we just pretend none of you all saw that? That would probably best... Sorry to wake any of you up! It's one thing to do this on a ship, but for everyone out there in the ether to hear it too... How embarrassing.

I was born as one, yeah. We're a youkai form of the actual Honshuu Wolves... but just like them, my kind is extinct. Well... except for me.

[notsokillerwhale]

You're the last of your kind??

How did that happen?

Are you all right??

[soundandfurry]

Please, don't panic. I can't tell you how or why we started to die off, we just did... I guess I'm safe because until now, I lived in Gensokyo.

[notsokillerwhale]

That's too bad.

In any case, I'm glad you're all right. If being here counts as all right, anyway.

[soundandfurry]

It's not so bad here, really. I've met lots of interesting people, after all.

[notsokillerwhale]

True!

Not to knock the people back home but I've met people more interesting in a month than the people back home could ever hope to be!

[ A beat and then... ]

...yourself included!

[soundandfurry]

Because I'm a werewolf, right?

[notsokillerwhale]

...I've never met a werewolf before.

[soundandfurry]

And you might never meet another one, so you should definitely cherish the memory.

[notsokillerwhale]

[ Cherish is definitely an interesting choice of word.

He won't forget it, in any case!

And he's happy to find that werewolves don't seem to be how stories depict them. ]

At least I know that werewolves are nicer and cuter than I thought they were.

[soundandfurry]

... Cute? -Oh if he could hear her blushing.-

[notsokillerwhale]

[ He's not sure what she looks like but he's been enjoying talking to her and setting himself at ease! ]

Mm-hm! I think so.

[soundandfurry]

W-well... Thank you very much for thinking so.

[notsokillerwhale]

It's isn't anything thing you need to thank me about.

[ MOSTLY JUST HIS RELIEF THAT SHE'S NOT GOING TO EAT HIM.

RIGHT???

RIGHT???????? ]

[soundandfurry]

Isn't it polite to thank people for compliments?

[notsokillerwhale]

Yes, and I appreciate it! Thank you for being polite.

[ Now he hopes he didn't make you feel bad again? ]
