Snuffle Hunter

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Thu Sep 29, 2011 1:25 pm

Nate, in human form for once, was sitting in the cafeteria, picking up and sniffing at the fishsticks on his plate. He was dressed in a fairly typical pair of sweatpants and a sweatshirt, both black. He frowned as he sniffed and put them back down.

"Oh come on," Samantha said as she walked by with her tray, "they're not that bad."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 1:55 pm

"I'm not even sure they're fish," Nate said, before dipping one in cocktail sauce and taking a bite out of it.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 1:59 pm

"One doesn't ask where the fish sticks come from, because you wouldn't like the answer."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:02 pm

"Especially since fish don't come in sticks," Nate said. "You're welcome to sit if you don't want to stand there with your tray."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:24 pm

"Might as well," she said as she put her tray down and pulled up a chair.

"You sound a bit familiar. Have we met?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:31 pm

"Oh, yeah, I keep forgetting what form I'm in where. I'm the big giant werewolf nerd you met in the Quad. Nate."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:33 pm

"Oh! You're ah... smaller now."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:34 pm

"Smaller and considerably less furry. Sense of smell's still too good though," he said, drowning his next fish stick in the sauce.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:35 pm

"So you're still sort of a wolf, even now?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:49 pm

"A little bit. Better sense of smell, better hearing, but it's not quite the same. I did mention I was a shapeshifter when we first met didn't I?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 2:50 pm

"Aye, but I hadn't thought you'd still have to deal with that."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:00 pm

"I've got some bleed over, I guess. Or shifting continuum issues. I could also be making up terms to make myself feel better about how these fish sticks smell."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:01 pm

She laughed.

"It must be weird though, feeling like that even when you're not fuzzy."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:02 pm

"Yeah. Makes some foods harder to enjoy. But on the flip side, I enjoy some foods more, so I guess it's not all bad."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:03 pm

"Bit of a carnivore, are you?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:10 pm

"Meat is definitely preferable, but I still like some vegetables. Especially anything where the smell enhances the flavor. Thai food is awesome now. So is Indian."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:21 pm

"Really? I'd think that really spicy curry would mess with you if you're sensitive."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 3:25 pm

"Well, you definitely wouldn't want to shove your nose down close to it, but it's not too bad. May have something to do with the fact that I've been eating spicy stuff all my life though."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 4:33 pm

"Guess you got a taste for it, aye?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 4:53 pm

"Yup. So where are you from? I'm guessing not from around here."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 4:56 pm

"I would have thought the accent gave it away, but there's at least one boy who thinks I'm Scottish."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 6:23 pm

"Which means I should probably go with my first choice of Irish. I just hate making a fool of myself on stuff like that. Especially the whole Irish-Scottish thing."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 6:52 pm

"I guess it could be worse, given what Americans think about the Irish."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Fri Sep 30, 2011 6:55 pm

"To be fair, Americans at large think everyone else sucks, but that's beside the point. I hear there's an ice cream place in town. Is it any good?"

"Oh, it so is. I think Becca and I are paying his mortgage just by ourselves."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Sat Oct 01, 2011 12:54 pm

"Think I could prevail on you to show me where it is sometime?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 1:36 pm

"Oh sure. It's not too hard to find."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:39 pm

"Awesome. Let me know when works for you. I'm free most afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I lead a rather dull life, all things considered."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 6:40 pm

"It's a weird image, the werewolf who likes books."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:03 pm

"I also like the occasional nature walk. But mostly I'm just a geek."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:09 pm

"Aye. It's just... an experience in contrasts, I guess?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:18 pm

"I suppose. What would you expect from a 'werewolf'?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:22 pm

"Er... guitars?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:45 pm

"My mom made me take guitar lessons. I really didn't take to it."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 7:50 pm

"I mean, like, heavy metal stuff."

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Mon Oct 03, 2011 8:00 pm

"Like Metallica and stuff? I suppose I could see it. I don't think I could grow the hair for it though," he said with a grin.

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 04, 2011 1:48 pm

"I think 'being a werewolf' classifies as pretty flipping metal. Looks-wise, you know?"

by **Nathaniel Davis** » Tue Oct 04, 2011 2:19 pm

"Well, yes, I do look kind of awesome. I'll agree. So what do you do? If it's not rude to ask, that is."

by **Samantha McManus** » Tue Oct 04, 2011 2:34 pm

"I'm a shapeshifter too, just... I don't really do much with it other than keep it under control."
