Today, we have OutsideJokes returning and interviewing the Pack.
~*~*~
OutsideJokes: Hey there Sam. I'm going to just cut to the chase. First, how much did you already know about your most recent vampire encounter?
Sam: crosses arms and glares What's that supposed to mean?
OutsideJokes: sighs and mutters Well this is going to be fun.
What I mean is: Did you already know about Paris and Helen? About Bella's power? That she left to protect Edward?
Sam: You mean the fucking leeches? glares I knew those two - the male and female who weren't Cullens - were around and from what we knew from Seth, they were after that boy. I'm assuming Bella is that Cullen, right? Power? I have no clue about any of that. And she left to protect him? scoffs She's just going to kill him herself.
OutsideJokes: I'll remember that you guys don't bother with names.
So if, basically, you knew the two non-Cullen's were bad news, and the other vampire was attacking them, why did you get in her way?
Sam: Our job is to protect our people, and the palefaces even - even when they're idiots and putting themselves knowingly in danger - from the leeches. The Cullen broke the treaty, and she's still a parasite. She's even broken it before! glares angrily It makes no difference if she was fighting the others as well. They all should have died.
OutsideJokes: But the others were the bigger threat. Wouldn't it make more sense to let her deal with them (hell, even, maybe, I don't know, help her?) and then attack her afterwards? Not that I condone that type of unethical and immoral behavior, but strategically speaking it makes the most sense. Maybe then the dark-haired one wouldn't have gotten away.
Sam: eyes tighten Are you implying that we couldn't handle it on our own and would need a LEECH'S - sneers the word - help?
OutsideJokes: In a word, yes. You're also not answering my question.
Sam: We don't need a leech's help.
OutsideJokes: gives a frustrated sigh Because I know I'm right, I'm just going to drop it and ask Ig to bring out Paul, Embry, Jared, and Quil.
Bye, Sam.
Sam scoffs, shakes head, and walks out
Ig skips into the room and waves at OutsideJokes, jerking a thumb over her shoulder He's just full of cheer and goodwill, right?
Here's Paul, Embry, and Quil. waggles brows Have fun.
OutsideJokes: waves at Ig
Hey, guys. How are you all after the... battle?
Ig turns around, eyes wide, and stammers Oh uh... I forgot to tell ya something... heh.
There was a fatality during the fight....
Heh.... and it was one of these guys....
It was Jared.
Is quiet and sad. All the wolves shift uneasily, and OutsideJokes stares wide-eyed.
OutsideJokes: As in he died?!
Ig chuckles a little uneasily, nods, and quickly dashes out of the room
Embry: We're... suffering.
Quil: scrubs hands over his face briskly This shit isn't easy. In all the legends, no one really talks about what it's like... to lose a brother....
Paul: Yeah, well, none of you had to tell Kim. shakes head That was fucking horrible.
OutsideJokes: I'm, ah, really sorry guys. I feel horrible. I just found out about this. glares in Ig's direction.
Well, let's change the subject. What do you guys think of the Cullen/Bella/Edward situation and how Sam's handling it?
Quil: Don't worry about it. smiles slightly, sadly You didn't know. And Ig is trying not to think about it. Anyway... I don't know what you want to hear from us about that. Sam's alpha, it's a big responsibility. He's just doing his job.
Paul: Those leeches are either going to drain him dry or make him one of them. I don't see how we're supposed to overlook them blatantly breaking the treaty. They should either leave the human alone or we should kill them. Sam's not giving them any fucking slack, is all.
Embry: sighs and shifts Listen, OutsideJokes, it's not as easy as people like to make it. What are we supposed to do? Sit back and let them take the life of a human?
OutsideJokes: smiles Those are all really interesting perspectives. In the interest of keeping this interview short, I'll ask you guys just one more question.
Do you guys see any more wolfy involvement happening? Whether romantic, violent, peaceful, or otherwise?
They all share a glance, and then Embry shrugs
Embry: Probably. As long as the Cullens show signs of going to break the treaty, we'll have to be ready for war.
OutsideJokes: Alrighty then.
Thanks for your time, guys. And really, very sorry for your loss.
Time for Jake.
mutters God help me.
They all wave and mutter goodbyes, walking out of the room with slouched shoulders
Ig slides in, grinning uneasily whispers Sorry! I... honestly just forgot to warn you. So sorry. winces
Jake saunters in, looking around with a mixture of boredom and arrogance
Ig - still whispering Good luck.
OutsideJokes: Hello, Jake. What did you think of the battle?
Jacob: bluntly It was a fucking disaster.
OutsideJokes: snorts I could see that, thanks. But what makes you think that?
Jacob: gives her a disbelieving look Because the freakin' leeches got away. raises his brow in a 'duh' way
OutsideJokes: takes a deep breath
I'm choosing not to respond.
On a different subject, are you still thinking about killing Sam in order to become Alpha and then return to a normal life?
Jacob: eyes tighten suspiciously I don't know where you're getting your intel, lady, but I am not thinking about killing my alpha.
OutsideJokes: Of course, you're not. How silly of me. gives a sarcastic grin
But I happen to know this particular intel is never wrong.
But, thats off the subject. Do you see any thing big happening in the forseeable future?
Jacob: shrugs casually Killing the leeches. Avenging Jared's death. smirks sarcastically Going to college.
OutsideJokes: Nice and vague. Ig has taught you well.
Speaking of, looks over Jake's shoulder I'm ready for Seth and Leah, Ig!
looks back at Jake Thanks for your time.
Jake smirks, turns, and leaves without a single word or glance or acknowledgment
Seth strolls in, grinning and waving at OutsideJokes. Leah rolls eyes as she follows.
OutsideJokes: Hey Seth, Hey Leah. I got a rush order, so I'm going to make this quick.
Leah, I was wondering, what was going through your mind during the battle?
Leah: blinks in surprise Uhm... I don't know. You'd have to get what it's like to be in a battle.... You don't see very far ahead into the future. Next hit, next attack from the next foe.... I guess I was thinking about fighting... and Seth here. rolls eyes Do you KNOW how much trouble this kid gets into?
OutsideJokes: Laughs I can only imagine.
Seth: rolls eyes
OutsideJokes: Now, were either of you surprised by how consistently and adamantly Bella protected Edward? And how do you think the whole Cullen/Edward/Bella situation was and is being handled?
Seth: shrugs Not really. grins But then, I'm the only one who has spoken to her, and I'm really the only one who knows Edward. So I wasn't all that surprised.
Leah: glances around slightly nervously Listen, I don't want to sound like the big bad wolf or anything, but I was surprised. I figured Edward was just hung up over their beauty and all that. You know? I mean, I just... couldn't wrap my head around a leech being IN LOVE with a human. It doesn't make sense, you have to admit that. I thought... when I first realized I was fighting her... I was worried that maybe she was after Edward. Taking care of the problem before it became a bigger one, you know? actually blushes Once I realized... that might not be it... I tested that. She protected him when I acted like I was attacking him. So... I was surprised, but I got over it. I accepted it. She obviously loves him.
Seth: As for how it's being handled? You all know my view on that. grins and winks
Leah: I have to admit, if the kid wants it... then I don't see why we should stop him. It's what he wants. If he knows what he's asking for... it's not our job to control his actions. snorts and rolls her eyes Edward's a big boy. He can take care of himself. mutters Sorta. That might be debatable.
OutsideJokes: Tries to and fails at holding back a grin
Those were the best responses I've gotten out of this whole interview.
That's all the questions for now. Thanks so much.
Waves good bye
And a big thanks to Ig's sister because, well, she knows why.
~*~*~
Okay, so, there you all go! A very nice interview conducted by OutsideJokes, revealing some insight into that pesky Pack! ;)
Oh, and Leah? Edward told me to tell you clears throat and quotes "Fuck you."
Have a nice night everyone!
