SlenderWolf In With the In Crowd

Chapter 6
A Long Overdue Explanation

“We were on our second date,” says CandiCrush, “I might see him again tomorrow, otherwise it’s Friday. How was your first day at work? Sorry I wasn’t around yesterday.”

“It was quite normal,” says KristalClear, “work was fine, I knew what to expect, although I can see that I have a lot to learn about my new duties. And afterwards, the InCrowd, all the school leavers, we had a meet up in the café , we had a great time. Workwise I think I was the happiest one, because it’s all so familiar. Conning had a normal day too, the workload at Lancastrian Lines is very similar to what she did before at InfiniDash. Kayt is the only one who’s not working. But she’s involved in the support team for Custodum.”

“The biggest shock of the day, was that there’s a fourth wolf, everybody knew about it before I did, The other incredible news is that HayWire is now living in the Coliseum. He’s been injured somehow, I don't know what happened and then suddenly Conning became very concerned about him. She’s going round there tonight, to find out the back story. Tonight, I’m seeing Dash again.”

Chapter 12
A Flood of Tears

KristalClear has walked only two steps with NutJob, and she waited meticulously until the door  behind them had closed. Unable to contain her emotions any longer, she turns to him, with distressed, soulful eyes. 

Caught completely off guard, NutJob freezes.

For as long as they had known each other she has been the anchor, the one who steered through chaos without blinking. Seeing her now, eyes wide with a raw, agonising vulnerability, is uncharted territory. Reaching out instinctively, his hands hover for a split second before gently holding her by the shoulders.

His voice has changed, not his normal pragmatic one, something more gentle, direct, and urgently concerned.

“Hey, what’s up?”

She doesn’t answer straight away, instead, burying her face in her hands, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably as the dam breaks.

“Is this what happiness and meaning is?” she gasps, “we’re doing an emotional juggling act simply to keep onside with our parents?” 

She wails, “walking a financial tight rope just to stay alive? Dash! All I want to do is be with you! How can everything be so hard?”

KristalClear - A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 17. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt. She is demi-psychic, but struggles with reading the minds of  humans.

NutJob - A watercolour picture of a charming young man aged 17. He has neat well groomed brown hair, his eyes are bright blue, and his face has an a simple, polite smile although it looks as if he's concentrating. He's wearing a plain white T shirt.

Chapter 21
ChatterBox

“Oh, and Flash,” says KristalClear, “complete change of subject! Before we have to go what do you know about the new electricity substation planned for New Cross in Lancaster?

“Oh, it’s definitely coming, is that where you live?”

Remembering that they’re not really married and they don’t actually live together, KristalClear doesn’t want to back pedal on the story. She dodges the difficulty by saying, “we live just outside the City Centre.”

“When it comes on stream the city centre will benefit almost immediately,” says FlashBang, “the new high capacity lines towards Skerton are complete I think. The substation and the final span across the River Lune should be ready by the end of this year.”

“And when will it come on stream?” asks NutJob.

“It should all be functional early next year. You’ll have have electricity 24/7 then, New Cross and Skerton fist, and then the City Centre. It won’t be long before it reaches across the whole of the city.”

“Wow! That sounds fantastic!” replies KristalClear, 

“Oh, but you can’t tell anybody yet,” stresses FlashBang, “don’t put it in the paper please! You’re supposed to talk to PR about any big announcements.”

KristalClear - A watercolour painting of an attractive young girl aged 17. She has beautiful long straight deep brown hair and her eyes are chestnut coloured. Her face has a gentle expression with a hint of a smile. She is wearing a plain white T shirt. She is demi-psychic, but struggles with reading the minds of  humans.

FlashBang - A watercolour painting of a 24 year old lady with shoulder-length red hair styled in a shaggy wolf cut with a messy fringe. She has a happy, friendly smile, and is wearing minimal makeup, and small gold stud earrings. Her white lab coat covers a simple blue blouse.

#WipSnips 17 Sep 'effort'

Today #KristalClear learnt that her demi-psychic powers now include the human wavelength. #Kayt and #AngryBard do not yet know this - but their romance is patently obvious to all.

Chapter N
Changing Dynamics Changing Boundaries

“Kayt agrees that a kind of boyfriend girlfriend relationship exits.”

“As if we didn’t know that already!”

“But it has not reached an advanced stage because she won’t permit intimacy. Using superhuman efforts she can just about cope with his fitful impulses, and her own passionate urges! She still believes that the words boyfriend and girlfriend are not appropriate and cannot be used … maybe that’s changing now, even as we speak!”

“She’s going to walk him home. It’s not far. He lives somewhere off Willowdene Road, before you get to the Primary School. And then she’s going to walk home to Broadlands. SuperVic and Tinkerbelle have the big house on the corner between Broadland Park High School and the George Tavern.”

“That’s all I know,” says KristalClear, “I will not be taking any questions!” 

Kayt (Manx, pronounced Cat, meaning kitty) - A watercolour painting of an attractive 17 year old girl. She has gorgeous long dark golden blonde hair and her eyes are dark hazel brown. Her face has a picture perfect smile revealing lovely white teeth. She is wearing a lurid lime green crop top dance outfit over a shapely body. 

AngryBard - A watercolour painting of a slim, attractive 14 year old boy - he has neat dark brown hair, trimmed nicely with a gentle wave on the crown. His eyes are a beautiful deep blue. His face has a thoughtful expression with a hint of a smile. He’s wearing a plain white T shirt. AngryBard is rarely angry unless you interfere with his book reading habit.
