on possibly going to the box

[unvirgin]

Why the username, exactly?

[ She pauses, for a moment, and then it clicks. ]

Oh, I get it. Because of the bite, right? Well, one of those things is less than true, and the other - may not be true forever. Ever think about that? Yeah.

But I don't know if it's such a good idea to put me back there. Are you sure they don't remember what happened last time?

[ He has - a lot of questions. A lot. Being alive right now, near the top of the list. Near because he has a sort of feeling, an obligation to trying to keep Dana safe because of the goat situation. ]

What bite?

[unvirgin]

[ Okay, she's going to have to get over the part where she watched him die first, because she's backing away slowly, eyes going wide. ]

Oh, my God - Holden?

[decents]

Holden. Dana? What bite?

[unvirgin]

I - it was a werewolf, I guess, but um - you're not dead? How are you not dead?

WHY. NO. I GUESS. THIS GUY MAY HAVE TO GO.

[coolerwithamerman]

[Hadley's just - embarrassed as hell.]

...You had to say that didn't you. I mean honestly...[Goddamnit. Goddamnit Goddamnit.] ...I could shoot you. I swear to god I could shoot you.

[He was almost out.]

[unvirgin]

[ She lifts her chin defiantly. This one isn't little miss virgin anymore. ]

You could try.

[hyoscine]

[Normally, Twyla would stay away from something like this. But even she can't believe what the plan is.]

'Back'? You've been here before and your mun wants you to come back-?

[unvirgin]

Maybe not this place exactly, but it's a hell of a lot like it.

[coolerwithamerman]

[His writer is screaming.

Hadley for his part draws his gun. And despite the ease with which he does so - he looks like a pro - he looks pained.]

You could have stopped it.

Then none of us would be in this mess.

[hyoscine]

...that's kind of awful.

[But if she's not there anymore, then that means-]

But you got out. Of the other place, I mean. Maybe you can help out here then...

[unvirgin]

I didn't really get out so much as - it ended. More or less.

[unvirgin]

[ She's watching that gun warily. ]

What makes you think that I have anything to do with what's happening now? Look at all the people they've brought here.

[coolerwithamerman]

...I'm not talking about them. I don't care about them. [Someone reeks of very stale tequila] I'm talking about our world.

You know I really wanted you to live.

You know that right?

[hyoscine]

That sounds... final.

[A pause, and then-]

Oh no.

[unvirgin]

And what, have to kill someone else in the process? One of my friends?

I wasn't going to do that.

[coolerwithamerman]

Tomato, tomato. Semantics. You -

I can't even. [He drops the weapon and slides a hand through his hair] ....You're just a kid. You don't get it. At all.

[puppetdance]

The real question is, do they actually and actively care? Do the muns ever really make with the caring?

NOW THREADJACKING.

[coolerwithamerman]

...Guess how that happened.

No really.

Guess.

Guess who's fault that was.

[Sorry Dana but he is just bitter and horrible.]

[unvirgin]

What is there to get? How long did you think you could keep doing this?

[hyoscine]

Uhm...

[Twyla starts fading backward into a shadow, not exactly enthused by all this attention.]

I don't- I mean I'm sure she didn't mean to...?

[unvirgin]

Apparently not.

I'm guessing yours doesn't actively give a shit either.

[coolerwithamerman]

We managed...pretty well through ... most of human existence. You know, thought we could do pretty well.

[What else do you say Hadley? You fucked up. You got cocky and you fucked up and because of that you and Gary bit the goddamn bullet]

[coolerwithamerman]

Ask her.

[He just smiles]

[puppetdance]

She's been sitting on this journal for over a year, y'know. Lying in wait, like. Suddenly she sees the perfect game opportunity and gets herself all atwitter.

At the end of the day, the real point here is that I think you'd make a pretty badass werewolf. [ He pauses, squints. ] Are you a werewolf?

[unvirgin]

People weren't going to just play the roles you set out for them. Not forever.
