Who: Stiles Stilinski and YOU
When: Night of Aereuer 8 (full moon)
Where: Various spots in Aefenglom
What: Semi-feral Arachne party games on a very special 18th birthday
Warnings: Language, animal death

[ After escaping from Sheva in the Wildes and absconding to Aefenglom, Stiles begins his hunt. Honestly, he’s not quite sure what he’s exactly on the hunt for – only that there’s a voracious hunger rising within him, an appetite that won’t be whetted by just any meal. And so, humming the happy birthday tune to himself loudly and offkey, he prowls from district to district from the city skyline. Those eight spider legs carry him vertically up edifices with no apparent effort, even make impressive leaps across significant distances between buildings. The sense of fear that usually holds Stiles back is gone; uninhibited, he experiments with his superhuman abilities in boyish delight, that joy tempered only by the unkind, savage grin stretching his mouth too wide. ]

It’s my party and I can cry if I want to, [ comes one such inspired ballad, interrupted by his sniggering as he swings upside down from where he’s currently perched. ] Cry if I want to, cry if I want to!

[ That’s if you’re lucky. Sometimes it’s – ]

It’s yo birthday, so I know you wanna ri-i-i-ide out. [ There’s a dog howling somewhere nearby in sympathy. ] Even if we only go to my-y-y-y house.

[ During the night, Stiles will make a nuisance of himself. Expect to find him cavorting through the streets doing eight-legged cartwheels, singing obnoxiously despite the hour, spinning webs in inconvenient locations, dropping by homes to pay friends unexpected house calls, etc. ]

ignore that meta about cinder, whoops ... forgot qrow wouldn't know that haha

[bolstafir]

Oh, we have those too. Mostly for the super-rich, though.

[His tone seems to suggest he knows some of those people and finds it entirely wild. As for Stiles' suggestion about his dtf status, his brows lift, expression taking on that one combination of teasing and smug that says I don't kiss and tell. This expression, however, is bullshit. He has not gotten laid in ages. Partly because there was a Lot Going On and partly because he has intimacy issues up the wazoo, but bird's gotta strut nonetheless.

Anyway, the actual clarification has him shaking his head.]

Yikes, no. Even assuming that's possible, you'd get yourself and probably everyone working with you killed long before you had the chance to accomplish anything. It's hard enough killing Grimm, let alone capturing one and keeping it restrained.

[The line moves ahead again; as they move, Qrow peers at the bill curiously, running a thumb across it if Stiles will let him.]

Don't these things tear easy?

[Not everyone spends significant portions of their day-to-day running and jumping around fighting monsters, Qrow.]

nw! i'm totally canon blind anyway lol

[mensrea]

[ While Stiles tends to be a difficult person to successfully bullshit, he takes Qrow’s inexplicit facial expression about needing to get laid at…well, face value. You win this time, you smooth criminal. Too bad the trichobothria don’t come equipped with some kind of lie detector. You’d be in big trouble, mister. ]

Super easy, [ he confirms, doing so just for the hell of it – take that capitalism! – with a tarsus before giving Qrow the bill. ] They’re a little more durable than regular paper, though. Totally fine if you forget your wallet in a pocket and throw your pants in the wash, for example.

[ The Grimm are an infinitely more interesting subject to Stiles, however; he’s eager to keep digging for information. ]

So, I’m guessing you don’t kill these things with nice feelings and love? [ No Care Bear specials for the Grimm. ] How do you deal with them?

same here w/ teen wolf haha. but rwby's a fun canon, if messy in places

[bolstafir]

[Someday he'll make friends with a Harpy and that will be a dark day for his bullshitter ass.]

Spoken like someone that's happened to a few times.

[Not that Qrow can talk; his first attempts at Domesticity after Summer was gone and he had to step up for the girls while Tai was struggling did not go great. So many shrunken clothes, so many innocent white shirts tossed in the wash with colored ones and ruined. rip.]

Anyway, they're not the touchy feely type, no. [Unless you happen to be born with silver eyes, and then that's exactly how it works. Not that Qrow is aware of that particular detail yet. Alas, canonpoints.] But slicing them in half's always worked for me. A shotgun to the face doesn't hurt, either.

[That bigass sword he's been carrying on his back is not just for show, after all. And yes, it is in fact both a sword and a shotgun.]

gotta handwave the rest, TWO DUDES ENJOYED THEIR SMOOTHIES!!

[mensrea]

[ Eventually, the conversation shifts away from the talk of their worlds and onto more mundane topics – like what kind of smoothies they should order. All in all? Stiles would hit up Qrow for more free drinks any day, 10/10, does recommend. ]
