[ she's been missing for a month. cora doesn't know it for certain, but she can sense something is different about wonderland. it's the smell, the way the leaves crunched differently beneath her feet when she walked out of the woods earlier that day. she can't quite put her finger on what's different, but she knows that the world she had left behind earlier that morning (five weeks ago) has somehow shifted on its axis. ]

[ however, despite her suspicions, cora's not going to bother with the pleasantries. nor is she going to bother to ask. she doesn't do network posts — doesn't see the purpose in them — but she'd been out for a run in the woods. she'd gone out in hopes of pushing herself out of her negative headspace, but has only seemed to dive further in it. ]

Throw a dog a bone.

Anyone know any good jokes? Could use a couple. My brother doesn't smile much and it'd be nice to see him :) for once.

Or :D if I'm lucky.

[ ha ha. something is off and perhaps it's because derek hale has learnt how to smile. ]

[ she doesn't think him stupid, but there are things she wishes she had said to some of the people she can no longer talk to. if stating the obvious and implying he's stupid is one of them, then so be it. she'll think him stupid if he tries to provoke a werewolf into an aggressive conversation where his sarcastic quips won't do any harm. ]

Both. But mostly you. Most of them only go after other wolves.

[ like the alpha pack had gone after their own kind, rather than humans. if adam stays out of mind, out of sight, and definitely quiet on knowing whether or not they exist, she thinks he has a good chance of escaping being puppy chow. ]

Hopefully Wonderland decides slowing down time for me for a month was boring. I have no plans on wandering off; really doubt Derek would let me.

[ she really doubts the pack would, either. and that's a comforting thought, even a little strange, to think of herself in a proper pack rather than ones that shift and change as unpredictably as the weather. ]

_{[Cora's being too lenient in Adam's opinion, but then that probably has to do with her singing werewolves' praises and playing devil's advocate. Adam has no fond feelings for anything supernatural and dangerous; if they can go after a person, then they likely will, that's a philosophy Adam's all right sticking with until he's unequivocally proven wrong.]}

But it's some kind of secret who they are?

_{[She hasn't been too forthcoming with details, and as a result her warning is half-assed at best. Adam doesn't fail to notice this.]}

That's what older brothers are for.

_{[The irony.]}

[ considering she doesn't know who half of them could be, let alone if it's only her pack in wonderland that's a wolf, cora doesn't particularly feel like boxing herself in by saying she knows, but she won't tell. it requires more sniffing around, catching onto foreign scents that don't smell so much as human as they do wolf. she's probably doing that exact same thing with her response, anyway. ]

How about I rain check on the whole Wonderland's Most Wanted Werewolf list? Still fine tuning.

[ but: ]

If you see a big dog, stay away from it.

[ that's not a half-assed warning, is it? even though she could add to that to stay away from derek, he looks like a big dog, anyway. ]

[halfwinchester]

So a secret.

<sub>[And he just loves those, along with the mental image of being torn apart by a giant, ravenous werewolf.

Sam and Dean are assholes when the chips are down, but the least they could've done was provide a list of what's dangerous around here and what's not. Adam would still like to avoid becoming the main attraction in a bloodbath again.]</sub>

That's a helpful. I'll try to do that.
