Mostly Just Weird, Not that Creepy Mansion on Phoenix Way, Sunday Evening

[newroutines]

Yet another full moon at the mansion! This was going to be completely normal, right? A certain mansion-appropriate version of normal, anyway. Right? That was what Mike was hoping for, although his optimism had been waning lately, for a few reasons.

But right now, he still had snacks and was sprawled on the couch, flipping through channels on the TV. If things were going to get crazy, they weren't there yet.

[ooc: Post is open and up early because ahahaha Sunday and timezones and whatever.]

"Always is, man."

The dungeon thing had seemed like they were never getting out of it, and even that had ended eventually.

"Just gotta push through it."

[justlurkinghere]

"Don't change," Derek ordered. Because it was clearly that easy.

And he needed some consistency in his life.

[newroutines]

"I'll try not to."

Yeah, he had no choice in the matter, but he could pretend for Derek's sake for a second that he did.

[justlurkinghere]

"Good."

Don't make him hug you, Mike. He might. He looked like he might.

[newroutines]

Well, Mike was just going to nod.

So, at least he wasn't actively inviting a hug.

[justlurkinghere]

Shut up and take his hug. He was delicate and it was his first full moon as an alpha.

[newroutines]

"Oh –– okay."

Yeah, okay, Mike could even return the hug in a pretty easy way, after a second of 'wow he's actually going for it'.

Best bros, really.

[justlurkinghere]

"This didn't happen."

[newroutines]

Mike huffed out a tiny laugh. Tiny. He was sorry.

"Okay."

That was still sincere.

[justlurkinghere]

Derek rolled his eyes, pulling away. "Stay away when the moon comes up. I'll try to offer you the bite."

[newroutines]

"Oh-kay. I wouldn't take it."

And he knew that wasn't really what that was about. He just wanted it out there. He liked being human.

"But, noted."

[justlurkinghere]

Derek nodded. "Just say that again. In case."
