    sure. if erskin is going to still be woofed all day, you could summarize his reaction to renting a canoe and going fishing. bel's not doing any catch-and-release nonsense, btw, he is going to fry them in butter goddammit.

    Erskin 'Why Yes I Do Work Hard To Be This Obnoxious' Aspera

    when Snape enters the narrative Erskin will switch over to provokingly tail-wagging for him, and probably ship him with Dumbledore and McGonnagal

    if he's trying to annoy bel, it has backfired. bel thinks this is the greatest thing ever. bel is basically hopelessly in love at this point and when he realizes it he'll probably forehead-slap himself into a coma.

    i think if you are the kind of person to like harry potter, then reading it to a sentient wolf, who challengingly wags his tail whenever anyone says anything mean to harry, is probably a 100% adorable experience

    also what romances has bel had in this universe, i am interested

    EXACTLY.

    he had a girlfriend in high school and a boyfriend in college, and i haven't really thought up details about either of them. also he was kind of low-key in love with murphy, but it never went anywhere because he was murphy's officer. and then murphy got eaten.

    as for pancho, i still haven't decided whether she was his bestie in the army and is still stationed at a base hospital somewhere, and they email when they can, or whether he hasn't met her yet and she's a were-wolverine.

    okay here's a wild suggestion: Pancho got pulled out of the army to work as a field medic for SCP Foundation Agents and they meet her somewhere when they get mixed up with some scary bullshit. She keeps trying to give them amnesiacs until Erskin is like 'would you cut that out, human-formulated amnesiacs don't work on werewolves, we are magic' and Bel is like 'wait what' and Erskin is like 'wait you thought that there was somehow a scientific reason for why you turn into a fucking wolf on the full moon' and Pancho is like 'oooh' and then maybe Pancho and Bel are pale smitten with one another and exchange cellphone numbers when the adventure wraps up

    alternate suggestion Pancho is from an alternate universe where they have were-wolverines instead of werewolves and they all think this is pretty weird and funny

    oh my god the scp medic idea is BRILLIANT. i'm not sure i'm up to thinking up much weird stuff but i think her imperturbability would be very handy in a situation like that. she's the kind of person when you tell her "don't look at this object or it will kill you," instead of suddenly being terribly tempted to look at the object, is like "ok no problem" and doesn't look.

    if you tell her "don't think about an elephant" she will immediately start thinking about abuela pancho's amazing pulled pork sandwiches at the last family fourth of july picnic. very few scary magic items are as interesting as really good barbecue.

    would pancho try and recruit bel to the foundation? it might actually be a good fit for his interests and skillset, though erskin would be dead against it due to how agents probably don't get to have families, or retirements. from what i've read, the agents either die human or turn into really, really creepy bastards.

    we could either set her on a team trying to deal with a containment breach of an existent scp, or i could make something up, or they could all just stumble over some classic mythological beastie on a rampage

    i keep returning to the idea of a random-exit underpass because i think those are neat, tunnels that let out somewhere they shouldn't are just cool to me. but maybe they take one and find that wherever it spits things out is cordioned off and under watch by a very big team of very well armed dudes, who are not expecting two very small and polite monsters who very much do not want to be shot. not actually par for the course of things that end of the pipe redirects

    also possibly they're somewhere really inconvenient now, like the empire of guam

    i don't think bel would want to join the foundation for precisely those reasons, and also because he is really hoping not to have to do any more fighting. and if he does have to fight, having the option of not killing anyone would be super great. he'll probably end up doing wilderness rescue, finding lost hikers and whatnot. but if the creepy shit is out there, he'd sure like to know as much about it as possible so it doesn't bite him in the ass again.

    the random-exit underpass is great and creepy because suddenly space itself is untrustworthy. shudder!

    maybe if they try going back in from the 'wrong' side it dumps them out on the side of the road they should have initially come out at. it's a tunnel with three ends. it should go A to B, but instead goes A to Z, then Z to B, then B to A, with Z being the particularly weird point.

    unfortunately for the guys at Z, monsters show up at Z from all different points of A, and mostly not want to go back.

    maybe bel and erskin hang out with pancho because she can come back to their point B with them if they're escorting her, and in any universe the foundation is going to stick some dudes through a super dangerous tunnel that all of a sudden has a not-so-dangerous setting. pancho could take a lot of notes on stuff and get dropped off / shelved at bel and erskin's version of the foundation.

    and everyone would be watching bel and erskin waiting for them to start melting people's eyes or something. nope, they're just nice werewolves who like to eat and take naps and have sex. the worst they do is chase the wildlife around. they are not an scp. such disappoint.

    ok my bedtime meds are kicking in, i must snooze.

    what i like about the foundation is it's scary and creepy and does really fucked up stuff, but it's not an evil or malicious organization. they genuinely are the good guys. but they're just trying to deal with such world-shatteringly dangerous shit that the moral scale they operate on is pretty skewed from some regular police force. i love stuff like that.

    should we summarize the car trip or should things happen on the way?
     
  19. jacktrash

    jacktrash spherical sockbox

    i'm thinking summarize the car trip, and probably most of the dad visit, since that's likely to be peaceful and without much dialogue.

    i need to make myself get off the internet tho, i keep not doing things i meant to be doing today.
