OH I BELIEVE [o, alter]

[jacob w.c.]

THE BLUE AND GREEN BELOW IS A MASTERPIECE — Protection was something Jacob struggled with. He wanted to be safe and he wanted everyone he loved to be safe. Before he'd come to Snowbound, protection had usually meant identifying threats and running away when the particular threat got too close. It happened after he was kidnapped and after the fire. And now he was receiving notes from Archie. At first, he'd hoped that it'd just all stop and he still held onto that. It'd been a long time since he heard from his former kidnapper and he was hoping they'd just lost interest and moved on. He doubted that was the case but he couldn't face how he'd deal with it now. He had family and friends here, he didn't want to leave them. What would he tell Harrison? Or Goldie? Or Pincher? No, he was determined to stay this time, even with the deteriorating state of his legs.

He happened to be wandering around when he spotted Dimitri, though he seemed to have slightly longer fur than usual. He felt like it wasn't the first time it'd looked like that but he couldn't be sure. Still, he made his way over to the other individual with a light smile on his maw. "Hi Dimitri! How's it goin'? Is your fur a li'l longer than it was before? Tha's pretty neat, I know 's a bit colder 'ere than what you're probably used to. It was a bit ah' a shock for me but I always wear the bandages n' sweaters n' things so it never really bothered me none." It was just mindless conversation, really, but Jacob supposed it'd be a good way to get to know the relatively new Snowbounder. Maybe it'd even mean leading up to inviting a few of the newer members to dinner or something. It'd be nice to have a few people over one night. — BUT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN
