    Summary

    “Fine,” Tweek grits out. He tilts his chin up; a challenge. “See if I care!”

    Craig shifts. Inhales, shoulders rising. Exhales, loud enough that Jimmy and Wendy both hear it from where they sit fifty feet above the ground.

    “Go find a new lead,” Craig pulls his hat low and flips Tweek off, “dick.”

    Summary

    “You said things were fine, last time we talked. In the postcard.”

    Wilbur pivots a half-step to the side, twisting his shoulders away from Tommy, looking out over the pond, the ducks in the water with their fluffed-up feathers, the pigeons slowly fluttering down to the pavement and strutting around his feet like old friends. For an absurd moment, Tommy wonders if the birds know his brother better than he does.

    “Yeah, well,” Wilbur says stiffly, voice straining for nonchalance and falling dramatically short, “I lied.”

    (or, two days before christmas, tommy goes to visit his former foster brother in new york city. nothing goes as planned.)

    Summary

    Phil had had a certain image in his head when the police had knocked on his door informing him that a shapeshifter had been caught living as a dog in the local park and that said shapeshifter had recently used Phil's 14-year-old son's visage for purposes unknown. Yet, upon going to confront this shapeshift, instead of what he'd expected, he found a terrified 7-year-old racoon hybrid. When Phil was told they were struggling to find someone to foster him after all of the stunts he'd pulled, there was really only one thing Phil could do.

    Tommy is not particularly enthused to be fostered by the man whose son's face he'd stolen. Foster families were bad enough without already having a reason to hate him and without a lock on his powers. There was no kind reason Phil would want him in his custody. He just needs to figure out what type of bad it will be.

    (Yes, I'm writing a story with the same basic premise once again. Yes, I am doing so in a genre that is oversaturated on this site. No, I will not apologize.)

    Summary

    Wolf tracks in the snow, leading toward the edge of the forest. Phil held his hunting rifle firm, circled around to investigate them more closely: two sets of prints, both smaller than his stretched fingers, likely not full grown. One following after the other. Not covered by the snow flurry, either, which meant they’d passed by that morning at the earliest.

    Phil glanced around, then knelt and tugged off a glove, touching a fingertip to the indents in the snow. His magic tingled through him like a rush of hot chocolate in his veins, wonderfully warming. He blinked, shook his head a little, cast the spell again. Received the same result.

    Not the average timberwolves, then. Werewolves.
