I asked him, Good sir, how do you know if your a gay vampire or not?

and he answered, "by realizing that you're in Twilight".

...And i sat there, my world shattered as his statement drove home. Staring at him in stunned silence, my lip quivering, I asked him "Good sir...could you please save me."

and he responded by shaking his head and pressing a fiver into my hand. "Take a break, get yourself a coffee," he said. "Then you can ask me some more questions."

With a curt nod i slid the money into my pocket, giving the dust and string some momentary company. Turning to leave i reached the door and turned back and locked eyes with Randy. With hesitation and a slight bit of optimism i asked him, "how will i find you?"

He slumped a bit as a stern look came across his face, and he glanced at his watch. "I'm here for another two and a half hours," he said, "And the Tom's is right across the street. I think you'll manage somehow."

With a chuckle i asked him "when a tree wakes up in the morning, is it called morning wood" And with that i left.

I asked him, Who is going to be your next victim/boyfriend?

and he answered, "I've got a boyfriend I'm very content with. I don't really understand what you mean by 'victim' though.."

ask the f*cker if he sparkles in sunlight. if yes, kill it with fire

I asked him, do you believe that anything is possible?

and he answered, "I wouldn't have said so a year or two ago, but now my feelings are a little different. The world is full of wonders and horrors that most people will never know. Just because they're hidden doesn't mean they don't exist."

And so he says, "Well now, makes me wonder even more... Perhaps... Would you like to see such things, yourself?"

He grins and answers, "I live with one of them. My passion is cooking, not unraveling the mysteries of the universe. If there are vampires in Bangkok or Aliens on Easter Island, I really couldn't care less."

With a questioning look, he asks "How'd you feel if you found out that you yourself were one of them~?"

He laughs and waves a hand in the air, answering, "I'd be pretty damn surprised, that's for sure! I'd tell Grant straight away, I don't know if he'd be happy or not. I guess if it really couldn't be avoided we could hunt together and bring a tender young thing home to share over candlelight and music."

Smirks and says "Sounds realllll juicy~"

I asked him, "Is it more fun to have sex with Grant when he's in his human form or his werewolf form?"

his face broke into a broad grin and he answered, "You know he can do just a part or two at a time right? I thought it would be an all or nothing deal, but he's pretty good at controlling it. That is to say, he knows how to keep things interesting."

"So he could, for example, remain human in shape, but transform only his prostate gland to increase the amount of precum and semen he produces? Or change his hands into paws when he feels the need to claw at you? Intriguing. Very intriguing." I had imagined Grant's transformation was like a light switch with only two positions - on and off - so finding out that it worked more like a series of knobs with varying levels of transformation not just as a whole, but on a body part by body part basis sent my mind reeling into fantasy situations. Unfortunately, I had to hide the evidence of such brainstorming by placing my clipboard in my lap. I had a level of professionalism to maintain even in this informal interview. Still, the urge to ask my subject if I could join he and his boyfriend in their bedroom and bear witness to his mate's abilities in practice was stronger than one would know.

"If I may ask a related question, sir," I added, "which of you is more often the 'top' when you make love?"

He laughed and answered, "That's a very presumptuous question. We take turns."

I laughed along with him. Presumptuous, yes, but my curiosity had to be sated.

"Indeed. On a more serious note, sir, I believe earlier you mentioned that your mate takes nourishment from your skin. And yet, you seem to be here before me with all of your limbs intact and no notable wounds whatsoever, so I think it's safe to assume that he doesn't literally eat human flesh, as some would think a werewolf to do." I tip my head, going over some of my own notes, deep in thought. "Do you think that, perhaps, he is as much incubus as werewolf? Incubi and succubi... er, that is, according to my studies in demonology... feed off of sexual energies by actively mating with mortals. What I am wondering is, maybe he isn't so much feeding off of your flesh, but simply absorbing your vital energy through direct skin-to-skin contact?" He needn't know my own incubal roots for me to ask him this; he's been immersed deeply enough in the supernatural as it is.

Wide-eyed, he answered," Well no, he doesn't literally bite a chunk off, that would suck. I also don't think that Grant is a demon! What a thing to say.. "

He paused a moment, visibly exasperated, before continuing, "It doesn't hurt me, or lessen me in any way to allow him to feed, and it's not even a sexual energy thing. Sometimes if I'm tired, he just nibbles on my shoulder for a little while, and then he's fine. I don't know what it is, maybe just a psychological or compulsive thing? But I do know that when he goes without it, it has serious effects on his health, and if all I have to do to keep him healthy is endure a little slobber from time to time, well.. that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make."

"I don't think being a demon is any worse than being a werewolf. Either way there's misconceptions abound that feed on people's fear and anger. But that's what the whole point of this interview is, right? To dispel any misconceptions anyone may have. Though, admittedly, these details can't even be released unless Grant should... come out publicly, as it was." I lean forward, trying to offer the most comforting smile I can, although I'm sure that it comes off more than a little fake. I'm just no good at smiling, I suppose. "It seems like you love him dearly. I'd consider myself incredibly lucky to have a boyfriend as caring as you are toward him."

"Just a few more questions before we call it a night: what future plans do you have with Grant? Getting married, adopting children? And if you two did have kids, would you be as forthright with your children about Grant's lycanthropy as he was with you?"

He diverts his gaze and answers, "I'd like to get married someday, but it's not vital, and it's not something we've talked about. As for kids, I don't really feel strongly one way or the other, and Grant has never talked about that either. Obviously we can't have biological children.

Hypothetically, I think it would be best, in an ideal world, to have the children be exposed to Grant's shifting at a very young age, before they're filled with terror by the world around them. He's only terrifying because we've all been raised to believe that monsters are scary. If a kid tells another kid that his Dad is a werewolf, who will believe him anyway?"

I just had the most adorable image come to mind of Grant melting around his adopted kids and being like a big playful pup with them, lots of laughing and happiness. Made me smile. :)

I read a book a while ago, went something like this:

Guy shifts to crinos (big bad halfwolf form) in front of a guy, saying something like, "Do you see what a monster I am?''

When the guy *doesn't* freak wolfguy asks him why. Answer's something like this:

"I work with dogs a lot, every mean, or angry dog I ever saw showed me with their body language exactly how pissed they were. I don't see a monster here, I just see a big, sad, lonely puppy who looks like he's been kicked too often, and doesn't know if he's allowed to play or not."

I asked him, "Between the roaring rush of Love crashing in and all around you......or the insidious, dark whispers of the despair of Loneliness.......which has greater impact?"

He raised one of his monstrous eyebrows and answered, "You're presuming much. First off, before I met Grant, sure I was lonely sometimes, but it was never all that bad. I have plans, goals, dreams, that I'd have gone through with even if I'd never grown into love. And love didn't rush and crash all around me, it grew, slowly, from a .. seed of misunderstanding, and watered with free coffee. I liked before I loved. Impact leaves bruises."

I smiles and nodded, saying to him, "Good answer. I was not necessarily speaking of your own experience, however. Thank you for the answer anyway."

I asked him, "How different is his scent between his forms?"

He answered, "Not different at all, as far as I can tell. He just smells like him."

I smiled softly and asked him, "Then, if he comes home after a bad day and, in an attempt to cheer him up a bit, you nuzzle up under his balls and when he asks what you're doing.....you say you're checking for ticks?"

Wide-eyed, he answered, "I think in that scenario he might be a bit upset if I didn't put a little more thought into it."

I smiled and nodded, thanking him for his time and generosity, "You sir, have my envy. To say the least. My what you have outlast Time."

With that, I stood, bowed a little, and strolled off into the night...

I asked him, "How much does sexuality actually factor into the vampiric lifestyle?"

He narrowed his eyes and answered, " Maybe you should try asking a vampire?"

Face burning with embarrassment, cursing my instant mental associations of "interviews" and "vampires," I correct myself....

...I ask him, "....werewolf....I...meant werewolf.....How does sexuality factor into the larger werewolf lifestyle, if there is an active social lifestyle to speak of?"

*covers face in wing, hoping the shame will eventually dissipate*

He shook his head and answered, "I don't know that there's much to be said of 'The Werewolf Lifestyle'. If I were to just look at it clinically I would assume that sexuality would be involved though. I mean.. Grant used his nose to pick likely candidates out at the gym, so he could corner them and feed. His method is perhaps a bit more sexually-bent than what I presume other werewolves might do, but I wouldn't really know. Maybe they just kill campers? I'm not aware of any others, and neither is Grant."

I asked him, "Do you use public transit, or your own methods to get around? That said, do you fly?"

He laughed at this question and answered, "I don't drive, and neither does Grant. Helenson has a pretty great bus system, and we taxi in a pinch. I -have- flown before, as in on a jet, but being a werewolf's boyfriend doesn't mean I can levitate."

I raise an eye at the "werewolf's boyfriend" comment, and give a small smile. And then I said, "So, all that aside, do you have any siblings? A brother, maybe?", unknowingly looking hopeful.

I catch myself and think desperately for a new question, I manage to find one that would be fitting. "Uh, actually, when did you discover you were, uh, what you are?". My face is still a bit hopeful, but for a different reason.

He stroked his beard and answered, "I have an older sister, Tara. She's studying on campus at Hel-U for her doctorate. Don't see a whole lot of her, she tolerates our parents about as well as I do, which is to say 'barely'.

As for your second question, I can only presume you mean homosexual? Strange as it is, I can remember when the thought entered into my brain. I remember my Dad commenting at a news broadcast, and how he thought homosexuals were wrong, and that he didn't like them. I didn't really understand what actually being homosexual meant at the time, but that's when I decided to learn about it, and when I did I thought "Is that all? I'll do this just to piss off Dad". So at first, that's what it was. Then when I got my own place, I dated a woman for a while, and when it got physical, I hated it. We're still friends, but that really cemented my being a homo for real."

I nod at both answers, glad my faux pas didn't break another conversation. "I can relate, a little, with that last bit. But, really, no-one wants to hear of that." I look down a bit after that, to my cup-a-joe.

I notice my hand, specifically the ill-fated-ring scar on the fourth finger, and I find I can think of only one question. "Are either of you two thinking of marriage? I know that it's more of a religious decision, and that the church isn't likely to take kindly to the decision for any number of possible reasons, but all that aside, are you? Or do you believe that you both have all that you need at the moment? From where I'm standing, you don't look like you two need to "cement" your relationship anymore than it is."

He shifts a bit uncomfortably before answering, "You know.. I really would like it if Grant asked me to marry him. I'm not sure if he would.. I mean, it's not that he won't be seen with me in public, but I don't know if he even thinks about it. He seems content just to have me around all the time, and that's cool, I love it too. I.. uhm.. well I guess it's not really necessary. And it's not like he could wear a ring, it'd hurt him when he shifted, right? So it'd be just me wearing one by myself and that'd be awkward.."

I shrug. "There are other ways to show marriage between two people. I once knew a guy who worked for an electric company, and he had his ring tattooed to his ring finger, to show he was married. And then there are other forms of bonds to show a couple, like bracelets, or something, and... and, I knew another person, who once gave her 'significant other'", my voice becoming a little bitter, "a unique ring, that worked a little like a fold-out couch, so that it could wind around one's finger and become a sort of spiral. It, was a little flimsy, being hollow and all, but it was reinforced so it didn't break too easily. It was actually pretty resilient, if I think about it..."

I pause as I realise the awkwardness of the conversation. "Then again, you could ask him, or you could give him the idea...sorry, that's delving a ways too far, isn't it? Anyhow, by the sounds of it you two are already fulfilling the vows that are made durring a typical marriage, aren't you? To be together, for better or for worse, through sickness and health?" I take a swig of the now cool brew, trying to keep my thoughts straight lest I babble about anything.

He looked up and stated, "I'm not really sure if there was a question in there or not. If you want to know something, you're going to have to be more specific."

I vissibly slumped, and rubbed the now sore hand. "I guess the question would be, why don't you ask him? I mean, if you think it would be better if he asks, or gets the idea himself, then that's what you, but still, why not just ask and get the details sorted out with Grant himself?" I'm about to finish when I realise that something has been nagging me, and I just let it out.

"And, before I say anything else, sorry if I've been rambling a bit much. Truth be told, I haven't every really heard of a man actually being a werewolf, much less being in a relationship with one, so, I guess I'm still, adjusting, a little to implications of the world. Stranger than fiction, you know?" I wait before I sigh at my own words, and take another swig.

He takes a deep breath and answers, "Well, you're the one who asked me here for the interview.

Anyway, I could ask him, but I'm working on finishing up my schooling first. Maybe after I get a job in my field I'd ask him. Or maybe.. I'm so sure that he'd say yes to anything I ask him, I'd wonder if he really meant it. I'd want him to want it for himself, not just for me. "

"Good points, on both accounts." I say as my watch beeps.

"And, on that note, it looks like my time is up. Anyhow, thanks for the interview, and just let me say, I really hope that things go for well for the two of you. And, really, thanks for being honest about all this, you wouldn't believe what some people will lie about." I feel a something slide in my pocket, and I pull out a voucher for a free steak at the local steakhouse.

"Um, you want this? I'd use it, but I generally can't eat more than one."
(Sorry if the interview turned a little negative, but I wasn't in the brightest of spirits; it helped though. And thanks for putting this ting up in the first place, it was pretty fun. )

He took the voucher and answered, "Sure, I know someone with a bit of an appetite. Thanks for the interview."

I asked him, is the werewolf or vampire affliction passed through biting, or any other kind of violent contact? Or are they passed on genetically, as Grant's story would suggest?

and he answered, "I really wouldn't know about that. He told me he's known since he was very young that he was a werewolf, but he's also never injured anyone, he's certainly never injured me. I'm not a werewolf, that's for damn sure. Also, I wouldn't be surprised, but I'm not really aware of the existence of vampires, so you really should stop asking me questions about them."

I was talking about twilight fans that bite each other :B

I asked him just how much bigger it gets that way!

Even in the dark room his face turned a shade of red as he answered, "Aww it's an inch or two, and a bit wider. I've never measured it, but I'll tell you I've certainly FELT it. Sometimes he does it after it's already insi.. I'm sorry, next question?"

...and I asked him "So... aside from the physical factor, has there been any other noticable changes in the way your lover is around you during love-making? I mean things like him treatin' you more delicately out of fear of hurtin' ya or the like... Do ya let him get as rough as ya can handle then let him know if/when it gets too uncomfortable...

Or is he basically the same fundamental person in how he acts no matter how he looks?

*thinks to himself* I know I still felt basically the same but did notice that somethings I did have ta be slightly more careful of b'cause'a m'increased size an strength...

He chuckled a bit and answered,"That boy is so my bitch no matter what he looks like. And you know, even when he's not shifted, he's way stronger than a regular guy, he could break a dude over his knee without breaking a sweat. He kind of uses me as a gauge for whether to be rough or not, but he's never hurt me. For instance, he won't shift if he's on top, because he weighs like.. 700 pounds, and he'd totally pancake me.

He'll do anything I say without a moment's hesitation. It's really sweet sometimes, but I've been tempted to use it to my advantage. If I asked him to slash someone's tires for instance, he'd do it. If I asked him to slash someone's throat, I bet he'd do it too. Maybe not, I don't know."

Hahaha hmmm... well m'sure he'd probably at least consider the throat-slashin' fer a moment... uhmm... not that I can speak fer every werewolf out there but we do tend ta try ta be as discreet about killin' as possible... can't stay a successful hunter fer long if ya leave trails pointin' back to ya after all, right?

...though m'also sure that under certain circumstances ya might not even have ta ask... in fact ya might have ta calm him down from takin' such actions even sometimes... I know I tend ta get a lil'... overly passionate about things that affect those I care about an they're usually the ones talkin' me outta doin' somethin' retalitorical to the person or thing that hurt them.


...but back to you... Bein' the human side of the equation... how do you feel about yourself in such a relationship? Do you sometimes now yearn to be more like your werewolf lover as means of being even closer? Do you grow curious to live life through his perceptions (keener senses/reflexes and such) Do you wonder that perhaps it may have been/ may be his heightened sexual allure that drives your decisions more than what you might have considered were he not around?


(sorry... guess bein' a werewolf these are the kinda things I would wonder about in concerns to a human mate so figure this is the best way ta find out)

he stared blankly at me for a moment before answering, "You've put an awful lot of thought into this particular question. First off, I have never known Grant to be a violent or vengeful person. Sure he's intimidating, and he is protective of me, but I've never had to hold him on a leash to keep him from lashing out at people. He knows how to relax, keep himself in good spirits.

As for how I feel about it, I'm perfectly fine with it. I don't understand exactly how it works, but he takes nourishment from my skin. It's really kind of cute actually.. but it must be difficult for him too. He always seems embarrassed to ask me when he needs to feed. I think that if I were 'more like him' in the sense that you seem to mean it, it would destroy that particular bond between us.

I am often curious about how he perceives things. Just when I think I get it figured out, he throws something at me that knocks me for a loop. There's a lot of hidden information in smells apparently, and it almost makes him seem telepathic or clairvoyant sometimes. It's impossible to lie to him for one.

Finally, I didn't know the boy was a shape-shifting monster before I moved in with him, so I don't think that had anything to do with my feelings toward him. It was always his confidence, his strength, his independence, and that little sliver of vulnerability that drew me to him. It's true that he's always had an uncanny understanding of things, but it doesn't make it any less wonderful knowing how he does it. "

He took a long drink of water, and waited for me to ask the next question.

*looks you over with keen scrutiny and consideration*


I... can easily see some of the qualities that you possess that fascinated Grant and drew him to you. Many werewolves that I have known have reluctance in even attempting to establish a relationship with a human. The chances of a successful relationship of such type more often than not tends to be unfavorable.

Outsider considerations as well as those which may be between the two beings who are so diversely different are but a few of the obstacles to overcome, much as with most relationships to be sure.

So far you and Grant have already overcome some of those hurtles which I suppose is the basis of my intrest in you as well. You seem to be a remarkably tolerant and understanding and accepting person for a human if you pardon my observation. A rare thing a werewolf encounters in a human. You have readily looked past his outward appearance to see that he remains basically the same person inside... quite a feat amoung men.

May these admirable qualities carry you both through any possible future hardships.


*now he grins as he leans in closer with an eye of mischief*


On a lighter note... I am curious now... are there any minor... 'quirks' about Grant that you have discovered and accepted now that you are the mate of a werewolf? Hairclogs in the drain or such, heh... c'mooon... I know every pair has them ... that little quirk that the lover finds both annoying and endearing about their lover. ;)

Leaning back in his chair, seeming a bit weirded out, he answered, "Quirks.. quirks.. well he doesn't get hair in the drain for one. He'll only shift in certain areas of the house, because honestly, he does shed, and once it's off his body, it doesn't go away. It's sometimes strange to watch him walking from the kitchen into the living room while he's reading or something, because he'll shift while he's walking without even missing a beat. If I'm not paying attention and I just catch it out of the corner of my eye or something it can startle me.

Something cute and annoying.. hmm.. well he ruins his underwear a lot. If he shifts without taking it off first, he pops the elastic, and it's beyond saving. Kind of annoying to have to keep buying him underwear, but it really is cute."

Hahaha I can imagine! Hmmm... well ya never know... maybe you can offer up his used underwear on eBay... probably might go for a great deal of money the way they auction some of the unbelievable items I've seen placed there...


Well I guess all that is left for me is the wishing of much happiness and success to you both and that I'd be honored if you could come back sometime... Maybe if you and Grant could give me a more private, off the record interview some time that would be most enjoyable... Meeting another... uhmmm... I mean... meeting a werewolf has been a long time goal of mine and there are some things I would love ta ask him about.


...But now... seein' as I've just ruined another pair of underwear m'self I think I'll have ta finish this interview another time... Thank you for the wonderful insights ;)

I asked him, "Does he give 'doggy style' a whole new meaning? Can you go back to monkey butt now that you've had hot mutt?"

He chuckled and answered, "I used to joke about that with him, but you know it doesn't make all that much difference. I used to feel kind of dirty, like I was screwing an animal, but then he said something that stuck with me. We were talking about 'what exactly he is' when I said 'I don't know whether to think of you as a Human or as an Animal, because you're not really either'. And he looked kind of hurt, but after a moment said 'Why don't you try to think of me as Grant?' So I do."

I asked him, If you could and if it is possible would you want to join Grant in being a werewolf?

He thought for a very long moment and answered, "No, I wouldn't. If I understand correctly, and I'm not 100% sure that I do, he can only stay sane with a supply of human flesh. If I were a werewolf, I wouldn't be able to fill that need for him anymore, and then I'd undoubtedly need to hunt human food as well. Besides, it is enough having someone like him on my side. I feel very safe."

...and i asked him..."you say he'd do anything for you. So he's taken on the personality of a lap dog?"

He grumped a bit and answered, "Of course not, that would be completely unacceptable. He's a very intelligent and charming person, with his own opinions and ideas, and it's not like I bark orders at him through a megaphone. He is definitely eager to please me, but the feeling is mutual, I assure you. "

...chuckles a bit.."have you ever been worried he woul take on a cainines sshorter lifespan?"

He looked at the ceiling as if searching inside his eyelids for the answer. "You know, I've never really thought about that before. I understand that he was always kind of precocious, but he doesn't seem to be aging rapidly or anything like that. Maybe he'll even age more slowly? By all accounts we're the same age. Little bugger is actually a little younger than me, by a few months."

Bobs his head "maybe, but lots off things changed the more time he spent as a wolf, you must have some fears he'll take less kindly atributes"

He answered "I had that fear when I was tied to the chair that day, but I no longer think about it. He's been nothing but kind and gentle, and I've seen no sign that it will be changing."

I asked him, "Is anyone else aware of Grant's special abilities? Or is this something he only reveals to you?"

He answered, "Well apparently you are. Of course if you bother to tell anybody, they'll call you insane, so I'm not too worried about it. Beyond that, he's told me that nobody else knows. I feel very deeply honored that he trusts me enough to share this dark part of himself with me."

I asked myself, "Wait. How do I know these things?! WHO AM I?"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Scream.jpg

He folded his arms across his chest and stated, "Well, you're the one asking me about it! You wouldn't know what to ask if you didn't know already."

I asked him, paper or plastic?

He raised an eyebrow and very slowly answered, "Paper?"

but that cuts down trees!

So I asked him, but in all seriousness, Grant has clearly had experience with the adoption route, are you guys gonna try to eventually raise one of your own?

He laughs and answers, "Hah! Wouldn't that be great! We're not only inter-racial, but an inter-species gay couple. I don't really know, it's not something we've talked about. I have no particular desire to have kids, but I am also not particularly against it. If Grant really wanted a pup I could probably be talked into it."

I asked him, "He has shared something very private with you, but despite this there is still the possibility that he has,nt told you everything. Can you trust him?"

He stroked his beard and thought about it for a moment before answering," I trust Grant more than I trust any person in this world. It is true, he could still hide something from me, but that's no more true with him than it is with any other person in the world, and he has already made a tremendous gesture of trust toward me. I am not concerned."

I asked "Has anyone ever come close to finding out? Suspicious neighbours, things like that?"

He answered,"Not that I am aware of. He hears well too you see, so if a neighbor is home or not home, he knows it. He overhears conversations, and we often have a good laugh about it. I'm sure if he heard a neighbor talking suspiciously, he'd have told me."

I asked him, "700 pounds? Did you ever break the bed, the two of you?"

He laughed and answered, "I haven't actually weighed him, 700 pounds is.. an arbitrary guess because I like the sound of having a 700 pound muscle-bound shag carpet for a boyfriend. .. I can't believe I just said that. Anyway, yes, we have broken the bed before. We got a new mattress not that long ago, and made sure that it would be 'sufficient for our morbidly obese aunt' when we bought it. It's been delightful so far."

I asked him, "How does it feel... to know that you've probably experienced something that very few have had the chance to?"

He grinned and scratched his head before answering,"I feel privileged. I think he's very unique in that he is not judgmental in the slightest - after all, I'm not the monster, so if I want to wear this shade of purple," he points to his shirt, "Then so what? Who cares? He supports me. Somehow I suspect that you're referring more specifically to 'boning a werewolf' which I admit, is kind of fun, but that's not the part of him that keeps me there beside him."

With a coy smile he tilted his head and scratched at his cheek. "Well, It wasn't the first thing that sprung to my mind to be honest." He lifted himself from the chair slightly and sidled forward more. His elbows on his thighs he leaned in, seeming to overuse his hand gestures. "I just meant being with him in general y'know? I mean... theres not many who could say " 'My boyfriends a Werewolf'... I know you wouldn't say it right out anyway" He blushed a bit and smiled softly. "But you're probably as much of a support to him right?" He coughed into his fist and blushed a little more at that.

Closing his eyes, he answers, "I hope that I am as much of a comfort to him as he is to me. He's very precious to me, and he deserves as much"

He tapped his chin thoughtfully for a moment and answered, "He never has, no. I think he likes the idea that he is unique, even though it only stands to reason that there must be others. He's expressed a certain.. disinterest in ever finding his biological parents. He feels like they abandoned him, and I think he's also afraid that they might be monstrous, they might remind him of what he might have become.

That said, if he decided he wanted to find them, I would be scared, but I would help him. Why not? You never know, meeting his biological parents might be kind of fun."

He put a finger to his chin and answered, "Yes, but in different ways. In the human shape, he is sexy, approachable, normal. These things are what first sparked my interest in him. Because I mean.. Grant is no Adonis, and he's not going to be in a magazine, but he struts around like he's the king of the world, and grins like he's better than all that, and THAT right there is really sexy. His hands are really very gentle, which is also sexy, since I know he could break me in half if he wanted.

In his hairier incarnation, he is magnificent, imposing, terrifying. Seeing him like that makes my heart jump in my chest, like going over the top of a roller coaster. It's terrifying on some level, even though you know you'll be fine, and that safety makes it exciting. Sometimes he'll even snarl and growl at me, or mark me with tiny scratches from his claws, and I'll break into a cold sweat or goosebumps, and then he'll hold me until I calm down and want him all over again.."

Randy seems a little distracted now.

He considered for a moment, then answered, "I hadn't really thought of that, but I mean if there is, how would I ever find out about it? It's not like there's anybody I can ask. I haven't had any health problems or anything, and Grant has been 'feeding' off of me for over two years on a regular basis. I think I'll be alright."

He grinned and answered, "I like plain old Grant best. That's the man I fell in love with, and he's still a sexy beast no matter what shape he's in. He seems at home in either, but I think he feels most relaxed in his larger form. He likes being enormous, and I often catch him napping in different places around the house in that shape."

I asked him, "Does he smell different when he transforms?"

He shook his head and answered ,"No, not really, but he does have this certain.. scent I suppose, in either shape. He told me he was embarrassed about it once, but it's not that bad, it's kinda musky and honestly, kinda sexy. I've gotten used to it."

I asked him, " Are there any special kinks you and Grant've tried out before? Werewolf and Human form?"

He raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, you want me to go into every specific sexual activity we've ever engaged in? I doubt I could even remember - we like to try lots of different things, keep it interesting. You're going to have to ask about something more specific if you want an answer to that one."

I asked him, ''What is your story? How did you become the guy we are introduced to?''

He blinked two or three times and responded, "I'm not sure exactly what the second part of your question means, but as for my story..

My name is Randy Horne, and I'm twenty-five. My parents run a handful of businesses that I don't give a shit about, and were really pissed when I expressed interest in studying a 'servant's trade' by going to the culinary academy. I lived in a modest bachelor pad in the more affordable section of town while I saved up some money for school, and that's when I started going to Gatorgym, and where I met Grant.

We dated for about a year and a half, and when I said I was going to start going to school, he asked me to move in with him, so I did. Then on the day we returned the truck.. he had a surprise for me."

I asked him "You said your lover was needing human flesh to stay sane. If you were lost, only you two, and that hunger was coming to him, would you sacrifice yourself for him to save his mind?"

He cocked his head to the side and answered, "No, because it would be pointless. He can partake of my flesh without hurting me, and if he were to literally devour me, it would only be a temporary fix. One meal, and then he'd be alone, and without any human to feed him at all. Also, if he wanted to devour me, it is well within his ability to do it without my permission or my cooperation."

I asked him, "Do you have any fears for what his werewolf side might do to him, or you, should something unexpected happens? I know there's little point in wondering about 'what if...' scenarios, but when it involves your life, I'm sure there are some precautions.

Aaaaand i forgot to close the quotes. Go me.

He thought for a moment and answered, "Nobody can predict everything that might occur. If you mean like.. a precaution to defend myself, then no. If he decides to attack me, I will very likely be dead before I even know what's happening, and I doubt you'd ask me that question if you thought he was a regular human. Besides, the only possible defense would be to have some ridiculously lethal weapon made of silver. Do you even know where a person could get something like that? Of course not.

Now if you mean something happening to me.. I have life insurance of course, but nobody wants to think about their mate mourning their death."

Avoiding any further awkward subjects, I continue "Does Grant live around the house as a werewolf more now that he's 'revealed' himself to you? Also, does he shed fur while in form?"

He answered, "Well certainly more than he did before I knew, and he never did it. Basically, he only does it when he's relaxing. He's a bit awkward in that shape, like doing something with your left hand when you're right-handed. So if we're just having a nap on a Sunday afternoon or something, I snuggle up to a fur ball. If he's reading a book or something like that, then it's 'regular' Grant.

And yes, he sheds. It's one of his deepest and most adorable pleasures to have me brush him. It is also a giant pain in the ass, and takes two hours, and I fill a garbage bag with black hair that has to be disposed of somehow in a building with no pets allowed."

I grin a little, but noticing something, I ask, "So how does it feel to be so famous and loved by fans? Surely you must be tired from all of these questions today."

He laughed and answered, "Fans? Well.. there's just you here. I certainly HOPE I'm not famous."

I asked him, "Have you two tried a howl together? If so, what did he think of your howl?"

He turned bright red, laughing as he answered, "Oh no, never anything like that. I should try taking him out someplace remote so we can though, I bet he'd enjoy that!"

He asked him a series of serious questions, "Do Grant's adopted parents know he's a werewolf or is he afraid to tell them? Have you two ever discussed this?"

He paused and asked a light-hearted question, "Has Grant ever told you if gay men really smell like an explosion in a chlorine factory?"

In response to the first question, he states, "He hasn't told them, and I don't know if he plans to tell them. We discussed it briefly, but, I think he doesn't want to alarm them. Maybe he'd have told them eventually if I hadn't come along."

He raises an eyebrow at the second question, answering, "A .. chlorine factory? Uhm.. well he sometimes shares things he smells with me. Like, we'll be in a mall, and we'll walk past someone, and he'll lean over to me and whisper "That guy spanked it like.. 2 minutes ago" and then carry on like nothing happened. Or he'll say "That cashier totally wanted to jump your bones" or "That woman slept with two different men last night" or "That guy has sex with his dog".. he really just picks up on everything. He can tell me what a person had for lunch too, but rarely finds it necessary to do so."

I smile a bit sadly. "It sounds almost like the state of affairs some gays have about coming out of the closet."

I smile at your raised eyebrow, "Well I ask in reference to this comic: http://www.geocities.com/buster_wil...../buster023.gif ."

I asked him, "I expect others have asked about interesting character quirks and habits Grant might have due to his being a werewolf. But what about you?

What aspects of your personality (not shared by most other guys) do you think made it possible for you to not only accept, but also enthusiastically maintain a loving relationship with Grant after he revealed himself to you?"

His face seems to glow as he answers, "That's really.. well.. uhmm.. I guess the first thing is that I've always tried to be everything my Dad is not. That is to say my Dad is a traditional, close-minded, straight-laced jerkface. Aside from the fact that Grant is totally hot, and I wanted him the instant I saw him, he also turned out to be a really sweet guy, and when he 'came out' to me, none of that changed. You might think of me as being the brave one, but I think it took a lot of courage for him to expose his secret to me, and that was really endearing, once I got over the initial shock. Also, there is one thing I hate more than anything, and that's tedium. Grant is never, ever boring."

I thought carefully about how to word my question, tossing ideas about in my head.

"To me, it seems like you're really happy with where things are going, but it cannot be perfect, can it? Is there anything that worries you about Grant? Or something you could change about him? You've told us all about the strengths of your relationship - care to divulge any weaknesses that you are working on patching up?"

With a perfectly straight face, he answered, "No, everything is perfect in every way."

Then he laughed.

"Seriously, of course we have issues. He can be pretty lazy sometimes, and he's so preoccupied with putting forward a good image of being a 'regular person' that he's never put any thought into pursuing a career of any kind, which kinda bothers me. It's like his only purpose in life is to be ordinary, yet he cherishes his uniqueness. It's a frustrating contradiction. I don't pretend to be perfect either. I know it bothers him that things are so tense with my family. Also I would like to move to a house somewhere out in the country eventually, while he's attached to this apartment we're in now, which is kind of crappy in my opinion. Is that enough for you?"

Intrigued by his comment about culinary school, I asked him, "So what kind of cooking do you most enjoy? Does food play much of a role in your relationship?"

He seems to perk up a little, answering, "At the moment I'm kind of obsessed with Cajun food. I love my food to give me a good kick in the face. Of course, Grant's kind of a wimp when it comes to that so I have to tone it down a bit when I'm cooking at home.

I would say yes, food is important to our relationship. Preparing a meal is a very therapeutic thing for me, and we talk while we eat. He does enjoy having a pro-chef-in-training in the house with him, and I enjoy having such an eager guinea-pig whenever I need to try out a new recipe"

"I think Cajun is more complex than a look of cooks realize, and suffers somewhat as a result. Is there anything you struggle with in the kitchen? And does Grant ever cook, or is that your exclusive domain?"

He laughed and answered, "I suck at bread. For some reason it never turns out right for me. And yes, Grant does cook well enough, he was a bachelor for five or six years before I came along, and you tend to pick up a few things. He helps me out a lot of the time. He's nervous about cooking for me, I guess he feels intimidated, but I think it's really sweet when he does it. I kind of look forward to being sick, because that's when I ask him to cook for me, and he does it, dotingly. "

I asked him, would you want to be a werewolf like Grant

He takes a deep breath and answers, "I've already answered this question, but no, I would not. I like me the way I am, thank you."

I asked him, "Why did God kill Billy Mays?! Why couldn't he have taken Vince instead! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?!"

He stared blankly and shook his head, answering, "I really have no idea what you're talking about."

And I looked at him and said, "You are no fun."

i asked him, "Can You See Yourself With Grant For Many Years To Come?"

He smiled and answered, "I Certainly hope so. He's exactly the kind of guy I've always wanted, except for you know, the werewolf thing, and I don't plan on letting him go."

giggles as i ask, "Also Are What Are The Biggest Negatives and Positives Of Haveing Grant As A BoyFriend Other Then The Whole Werewolf Part?"

He paused thoughtfully and answered, "Well for positives, he's really cute, and he makes me laugh. We can go back and forth for hours with flirting, playful jibbing, and just being ridiculous. The conversations we have are some of the best things ever.

For negatives, well, he's pretty focused on me, which is nice sometimes, but I wish he'd pick a career and get on with it, he's kind of stagnating that way. He gets into a place where he feels safe and then wants to stay there, so he won't quit his job, even though he always complains about it. Sometimes he can take the teasing a little too far, and he always runs out of steam in the sack before I do."

smiles warmly as i stand up and say, "Well Thank You Very Much For Your Time And For Answering My Questions Hope You And Grant Have Many Wonderful Days To Come Take Care And Good Bye" Shakes His Hand Gently Leaves Smileing Back Again

I asked "would you choose to shae your boyfreind's curse?

He looked at his knuckles and answered, "I've already answered this, but no. If I were like him, I wouldn't be able to help him in the same ways that I do. I like myself fine the way I am and I think Grant does too."

Kay, Kay. Lets think it was YOU the wolf one instead of him. How would have you approached him and in what way, if any

He tapped his lower lip a few times and then answered, "I think I would have gone after him. The first day when he said that I wanted him, he was right, I did. I was just put off by how cocky he was being, how he thought he could just cut to the end without doing the work. Who knows how he would've reacted in that situation? Probably he would've just blew me off, since I don't think he really was comfortable with his sexuality at that point. Hell he didn't know we were on a date until it was halfway over."

I asked him, a grin spreading across my own face, "So, what of the process? Has he ever topped you, or has that been a bit difficult to do?"

He laughed and answered wickedly, "Of course he has. He's not enormous you know, even when he shifts it, it's still manageable, just takes a bit more coaxing."

The man chuckles in return, retorting back. "What about that canine-knot thing? Does he have that, or human, or is it also shiftable?"

He laughed and answered, "No no, he doesn't have anything like that. It's pretty much the same, just a little bigger."

"Hmmmm....what about clawing, barking, tail wagging? Any amusing animal traits that come though while Grant has transformed, and what about them lingering while he's human? That ever happened?" The younger man asks as he sits back, then takes a drink of water.

He rubbed his beard and then answered, "The only one I can distinctly recall is that he moves his ears the same way a dog does. I don't think he can really control it. When he's shifted, his ears are all over the place, depending on how he's feeling, and I tease him about it all the time. Of course, he can't move his ears when he's in his regular shape."

"Gotchas. Here's one. I remember you were talking about Cajun food earlier. What is one of your favorites, if you've gotten really good at any of them?" Looks back while refocusing his eyes.

He grinned and answered, "Well, Grant isn't the biggest fan of Shrimp, so I've taken to making a lot of chicken recipes. Mild enough that Grant can eat them, but with enough zip to keep it energetic."

Leans in a bit, the grin still on his face. "Aw, ever gotten feisty and added a bit of andouille in there?"

He nodded and answered, "Yes, that's some good stuff."

"Sweetness. Thanks for sharing this, despite the possible risks."

I crossed my legs and laid back in the chair, stroking my chin thoughtfully as I raised and eyebrow and asked him, "Have you ever been afraid of your boyfriend hurting someone in public, and if he was discovered, how your lives would change?"

He shook his head and answered, "Nah, not the first part anyway. He's never hurt anybody as far as I know, and I don't think he will. I know he's kind of intimidating but he's a really sweet and gentle person.

As for what would happen if he was discovered, we've actually talked about that. There is one particular plot of land we've talked about, easily big enough for him to hide out for a while, and he's probably competent enough to hunt and/or steal for food indefinitely. I'd go there to meet him, and we'd figure it out from there. Maybe we'd just move to a new city and start over. He'd dye his hair blonde or something."

He began to giggle at the thought.

I asked him. "Assuming you still do, how often do you go to the gym and do you go and workout together? Has Grant ever seen any of the other men he used to 'feast' on there and did they try to make a move on him if he did?"

He clasped his hands together and answered, "Honestly, we really don't go to the gym anymore. Grant never went there for any reason other than to hunt, and I walk a good distance to the academy most days, so it's just not really something we feel we're missing. Grant has never pointed out any of his 'leftovers' to me, but I've also never asked. I guess I don't really want to know."

I asked him, "Have you ever noticed if his earring gives him any discomfort when he transforms?"

He laughed and answered, "Of course it does, it's silver after all. I've told him to take it out, but he won't, he loves it so much. He's said it's kind of like a bee sting, and it goes away when he's completely unshifted. I guess it doesn't bother him enough to take it out."

I asked him, does he prefer the furry cock or the furry ass?

He raised an eyebrow and answered, "I prefer that it's something we're both enjoying. We like to try all kinds of different things, but if we're not both having fun, what's the point? That is to say, I don't really have one favorite thing, and I don't necessarily prefer him to be shifted."

I asked him, "Have you two had an argument yet? If so what about? Don't want to come off negative or anything like that but I'm just curious if even you two have differences once in a while."

He rolled his eyes and answered, "What couple doesn't have arguments? Usually it's nothing serious though - we're both pretty easy-going guys. Mostly it's about what to have for dinner or whose turn it is to do the grocery shopping. Grant really, really hates the grocery store for some reason, and always wants me to do it, so I tell him he has to do the laundry instead, and he sulks."

I ask him, "So, some people say that after living with their partners, that you start to take on traits of theirs. You know, personality traits or sometimes even mannerisms? Have you noticed that you've picked up anything of his, fuzzy or not, since you two have been together?

He laughed and answered, "Yes, I have actually. Sometimes I'll growl at him or position my body in a way that an animal might. For instance, I'll loom over him if I'm trying to get him to submit to something, or raise my chin and expose my throat if I'm submitting to him. Both things that he does, that I kind of subconsciously mimic. And we both mimic each others' manner of speaking, which was not too different to start with. We've been told that when we talk it sounds like one person rambling on and on without a break."

He grinned and answered, "It's one of the only things I got from my parents that I don't have a problem with. My father, though he's lived his entire life in Helenson, is Jamaican-descended, and my mother immigrated from Hawaii. It's never really given me a serious problem, though I often got teased for my nose when I was a kid. When I decided I was going to try being gay to piss off my Dad, I dated all kinds of guys, I can't even remember the number. As for my family.. Grant wants to meet them but I'm not too excited about that. I know how that's going to go, and it's not going to be pretty.."

He answered, "No, not really. It's just something he does.. no more significant than.. raising your arm, or tapping your foot."

I shift in my seat, offering to refill his coffee. I take tea, myself. "Have the two of you explored some of the more esoteric legends? I don't mean biting, as you've professed not to be a werewolf. Does soothing music prevent transformation, for example? And I suppose now would be a good time to insert a Moon joke."

He scratched his head and answered, "Well.. it's pretty evident that he's allergic to silver, and he does need human flesh, but we haven't discovered anything beyond that. I mean, he transforms how and when he wants to, there's no 'preventing' it, if he doesn't want to, he doesn't do it. To be honest, I wasn't really up on my werewolf lore before, and Grant has assured me that most of it is hogwash so I haven't bothered reading up."

I consider my options for a second then ask....

"Since you discovered that Grant was a Werewolf, have you ever encountered any other Weres or perhaps other 'supernatural' beings?"

He shook his head and answered, "No, to my knowledge I have not."

I asked him "Does his personality change when he shifts or is he still very much Grant all the way through?"

He answered, "He's the same person, all the way."

Makes a note on his pad and then looks up "Ok, next question. You've already told us that most of the werewolf mythos in movies is rubbish. But he does have a sensitivity to silver. So I'm wondering does he heal quickly or seem immune to diseases?"

He nodded and answered, "Both actually. I've never seen him get sick, and he can't get drunk either. He tries to show me whenever he hurts himself, but by the time I get there to see, the wound is closed."

Puts a tick on his note book and scribbles something else down and then pauses to think. "Ok, this is a bit more of a personal question so feel free not to answer. Grant has a hightened sense of smell as you've already said. Do you take extra effort to make sure that you are clean, or well smell clean? And does Cologne or deodorant do anything to mask scents?"

He pauses to look through his notes and realizes something. "And as a chef in training do you find that with such a powerful sense of smell it affects the kinds of foods he eats and they way you have to prepare them?"

He answered, "Well, I make an effort to be clean of course, but to him, soaps and colognes are actually more offensive than the smell of an unwashed body. We use unscented products wherever possible, and he prefers me not to use anything on days I'm not leaving the house. I think it's because it's a chemical. Something that might smell mild to us can be really offensive to him.

As for the cooking, it hasn't really affected anything, though he can usually tell long before I can if something is starting to go bad. If there's mold in my spices for instance, or if the meat is old. Still, spices and edibles of most sorts don't really offend his senses, probably because it's just an organic smell."

Nods and replies "Sensory perception is just one of those areas that fascinate me. Well the last question is less about Grant his unusual abilities and more about the two of you as a couple. What would you describe as your perfect date or perfect night together?"

He blushed bright red and grinned as he answered, "Well.. I admit to being a bit of a romantic at heart. One of my favorites was this one summer night, he showed up at my old apartment with a rose and a picnic basket of stuff he made himself. We went to the park and ate lopsided sandwiches while kids almost hit us with frisbees, then we walked to the dairy bar and we got milkshakes. He spilled his down his shirt, so I invited him inside when we got to my place. I laundered his shirt for him, and while it was tumbling in the drier, we were tumbling on the sofa. That was the first time we really got physical together, and it couldn't have been better!"

I leaned forward and asked him, "what was it about Grant that truly attracted you to him in the first place? It has come to my attention that your initial meeting was...ah...rough, shall we say?"

he answered, "I've already answered this question, but it was his confidence, his strength, and his little bit of vulnerability. That and he was totally hot."

I nodded. "Sorry...not taking notes. Bound to repeat myself. So then. A two part. If you could chance one thing about Grant, what would it be? And along that line, if there was one thing about him you would have never change, what would that be?"

He thought for a moment and answered, "I'd like him to be more ambitious. For him to decide to do something with his life, beyond just staying hidden. I realize that's probably very hard for him to do, but I do wish it.

As for what I'd never change, he has this kind of naive innocence, even though he's a big monster and all. I hope that he never loses that, it's wonderful."

I smiled at the last bit. "So, what is the last song that you listened to on your iPod...MP3 player, or whatever? And do you and Grant have a song?"

He thought for a long while on this one, and then answered, "The last song I listened to on my player was "Out Here" by Pendulum. Great tune seriously. And I'm not sure if we have 'a song' so much, but I do remember the song that was playing the night we had coffee together that first time. It was "After All by Delerium", another great tune. "

Ah, I'm familiar with the last one...

So in your opinion, how have Grant's parents shaped him as a person?

He answered, "Totally, they're all a bunch of loons. They all keep each other laughing, and on their toes, and it's really infectious. In fact, I'd wager that positive energy is a large part of why Grant didn't end up being a savage monster."

Very good...so back to you...I understand you like cajun cooking, but is there a style of cooking that interests you, that you want to learn?

He answered, "All of it, that is why I'm paying through the nose to go to this damned academy! Nah, there's not really a particular style of cooking I'm interested in over the others. I like inventing my own recipes, and the more styles I learn, the more information I'll have at my disposal."

Your own recipes, eh? What was your latest creation?

He answered,"I make a killer pumpkin pie, with tofu. You'd never know."

Tofu? How did you think of that?

He answered, "One of my vegetarian classmates gave me the idea and I ran with it. "

Interesting. What inspires you most in the kitchen?

He answered, "An instinctive need to eat?"

I chuckled. Fair enough, I suppose. So how willing of a guinea pig is Grant, anyways?

Ha answered, "Willing enough. He likes to eat."

So it's not often you have to bribe him into trying something?

He answered,"No, never."

I grinned a bit. "So, from an academic standpoint, it must be handy having someone so willing to try your creations, yes?"

I asked him, "So how does it feel to change. the movies always have the bones cracking and hurting but from ... other sources i know it could be an orgasmic melting experience. how is it with were wolves?"

He answers. "Well I don't change myself so I'm not sure I can properly describe it, but it doesn't seem to hurt him at all. It seems more like .. letting his hair down, so to speak. As though him being in human shape is something akin to sucking in your gut, and then when he relaxes, he shifts to the hairier form. He seems to take some relief from the change, but I don't think it's either traumatic or orgasmic, only comfortable."

Interesting. So being a werewolf does he consume human flesh. and you being his boyfriend do you ever partake with him?

He screwed up his face and answered, "He requires human flesh, but he does not consume it. And no, most of the time I am his flesh. I think you're suggesting that we kill someone and eat them, and that's gross."

"no more disgusting i would think than killing a cow, but then such things are oddly looked down on in many cultures whilst they are practiced even by those who voice the loudest distaste in such... " shifting in his seat and finding in uncomfortable he eventually just gets up and sits cross legged on the floor "Sorry chairs are simply uncomfortable.. So what does a werewolf such as you paramour eat to sate himself? the transformative process in many things is a high energy metabolic thing. even in magical beings it can be spiritually and physically draining after a while and one must replenish those stores. i would imagine from our discussion so far that it is his human form that is somewhat taxing and not his were form that requires an expenditure. so does he eat a lot while in human form perhaps? do forgive my long windedness."

He tapped his forehead a bit and then answered, "Well it sounds to me like you're already hoping for a particular answer and looking to me to validate it. You also seem to 'know' a lot more about this whole werewolf thing than I do, but I'm telling you, he doesn't eat people, and he doesn't eat anything special. Sure, he has an appetite, but no more so than I would expect any man of his size to have.

He once described to me the process of his transforming was very much the same as simply relaxing or tensing a muscle, that the 'effort' involved was largely unconscious. I can't imagine why that would require this tremendous expenditure of magical energy, but if there's anything like that going on I doubt he's aware of it either."

Very interesting and no i was not looking for any particular answer though of course i am morbidly fascinated. There are so many kinds of shape shifters in literature and legendary that one wonders where the truth lays in such tales. as far as knowing a lot i have family history of shape shifting at least in the family legends. so it has been a bit of an obsession with me." letting out a slight sigh he continued "Also there is a chance that i have done so myself but not knowing anything other than legends and lore not everything matches up. there are periods of missing time and other evidence... So well hearing this it makes me wonder what may be happening if it is so easy for him." looking him in the eyes he suddenly lets out a little laugh "Ha no i have never woken up near a body or anything like that if you are wondering if i have eaten a person. No nothing like that. it is just one of the weird things that comes up in so many of the legends that may have been true. Unlike say having a skin to change into that must be guarded like a selkie or Berserker or some european legends of werewolves." takes a drink from a small bottle of water. "So what about moon phases. any particular phase have any effect on him or is that too a bit of simple legendary?"

He answered, " I've never asked him about that one, but I haven't noticed him being really affected by it. I mean, even I'm affected by the phase of the moon to some extent, so maybe a little bit? But nothing major."

"Very interesting. So any strange allergies or anything like that. I mean i know one can have strange allergies without being something other but it would be interesting to know if any corralate with any of the legendary about such things. I mean there is the stereotype of silver but some other shape shifters of other legends are allergic to other metals or even things like rosewood and peaches. I myself have a few allergies that would seem to mark me as a vampire since i am allergic to UV and gold, the latter being associated with the sun and in some legends would defend one from such creatures. So any strange allergies or aversions?"

He answered, "I'm not sure whether you're asking about me or about Grant. Grant is allergic to silver, quite severely, but it doesn't seem to bother him unless he's shifting. Other than that, I don't think so.

As for me, I'm allergic to most down, so can't have feather pillows or comforters and such."

"Well i was refering to Grant as he is the werewolf. though people do have the most interesting allergies. So it would seem something in the legends has a chance of being right. even though it may just be an allergy speciefic to him and not others of his kind." sips some water "So ummm .... yeah... just a curiosity and it may have been answered before but there is a lot to go back through here at this point. So if you have ever been intimate with him after transformation into the werewolf does his genitals change to be more wolf like or are they still very human." Turns a bit red when asking "yes it is embarrassing to ask but considering the literature especially of the middle ages about such things one become curious. The accounts vary widely in this arena from them having nothing to monstrously deformed members that would kill to normal stuff. even one painting where the penis was replaced by a raptors head..."

He answered," I have never heard of these paintings or anything remotely like that. Grant and I have had sex a lot. Sometimes he's shifted, sometimes not. When that particular organ is shifted, it's a little larger, the skin darkens somewhat, but it's basically the same shape. I don't have measurements, sorry.

And yes, it's a little bit embarrassing, but not for me."

"... i was not looking for measurements..." giggles a little. "sorry" clears throat, "Ok i believe you said he knows of no others of his kind. So being that he has no interaction with others of his own kind have you noticed any Pack mentality with him with the humans that he interacts with. perhaps co workers or such. I realize you may not know much about pack mentality so perhaps anything out of the normal when dealing with normal people. more aggressive in situations or nervous around larger groups, anything like that?"

He shook his head and answered, " I can't say that I've noticed anything like that, no."

"so it would seem that other than becoming wolf like when he feels like that there is nothing all that much more different that a normal person. Very interesting. Is there anything OTHER than him transforming that you have noticed that sets him apart from everyone else. birthmarks or the like. perhaps just a intangible thing such as aura or such?"

He answered, "Well he's a unique and special person of course, but I was utterly convinced he was just an ordinary person, until he told me his secret. He hides it well. "

"it makes you wonder how many others are like him out there."

"From what I've seen you two have a good relationship there, so then I have always known that werewolves live longer than humans, and in some cases they are immortal, I'm not sure wich is the real deal, but thing is that you will die before he does, this will make him sad, so with this in mind" I asked "Do you still want to be human till the very end?"

He crossed his arms and answered, "There is no guarantee that I will die first. Although chances are, since I can get sick and he can't, he can recover from most injuries and I can't. Maybe something down the line will change my mind, but as it stands now, I'm content being human, and as I've said before, if I were not, I don't think Grant and I could have the same relationship. Besides, we don't even know if it's possible to 'infect' a normal person or not, and he's not about to bite someone to find out."

Well you are right, as we cannot trust all that we read, anyway next question, "How do you get fun I mean, any hobbies at all? you go out often or prefer to stay at home? Ok more than a question there but I'm actually curious

He thought for a moment and answered, "I try to stick to activities that are on the cheap, since I'm a student and all, and Grant makes a pretty modest paycheck. Every so often we like to go out to eat somewhere, usually we hit up greasy spoon places, since at most nicer places, I could do a better job. Hmm.. we like to play games a lot if we're staying in, that's always fun. We've each got a few friends from work and class who we hang out with from time to time. Sometimes we hit up movies and such, but Grant always just wants to make out in the back row, which is awesome by the way, so I couldn't really tell you what movies we've seen lately because I wasn't watching. Obviously cooking is big for me, it's not just my field of study, I really enjoy it. I also love to dance. Actually took classes for it for a while, it was great fun."

He that really sweet, okay I got no questiona and I came to the conclusion that I envy your relationship, youre a lucky man Randy, hope to be hearing from you soon enough.

"Randy, do you feel as though your job as Grant's boyfriend is more challenging than your past relationships? The reason why i ask is that Grant clearly has two different sides to him. Are there any differences in his personality or demeanor between his two forms? If so, how do you cope, and how does Grant try to lessen this burden?"

He takes a deep breath and answers, "First of all, I've answered this one a few times already. There is no difference in him except for a physical one. As such, there is not really any coping involved.

As for the first part though, he's definitely a more challenging partner than my previous relationships - but that said, most of my previous relationships were just to piss off my Dad, so I hadn't put much thought into them. Grant's certainly the first one I've decided to move in with. "

eyes go a little wide and blushes that he totally forgot that you had been asked that. "sorry man. There is nothing worse than having to repeat yourself over and over again."

"wow. so how long were you and Grant dating before you moved in?"

He answered, " About a year and a half, if you count our first date. For the first while we met every week or so, and we sort of became boyfriends without formally saying that we were."

that is really romantic man. you have probably answered this but, what part of Grant do you like in his Wolfy form and then in his human form. and you can't say his heart mind or soul. those don't count right now. haha

He scratched his head and answered, "I don't get why it's such a big deal to understand that it doesn't make a difference to me. My favorite part would be his eyes, in both, and they're the same, in both."

that is beautiful.

I walk over to the chair and gently sit myself down. I stare at Randy for a few moments, deciding what to ask him. Nodding to myself, I clear my throat and ask "Is the cake really a lie?"

He answered, "Not if I made it. I make a damn good cake."

I smile warmly and clap my hands together. "Splendid! I might have to test that theory. If you didn't mind letting me sample a piece of your cake, of course." My smile slowly fades. "Now on to a more serious note. Do you and Grant enjoy where you live at the moment? Or would you like to move to another location in the future?"

He answered, " I think I talked about this earlier. Grant loves the apartment, but I think it's kind of a hole in the wall. I'd love to live in a place a bit further out of town, but that's definitely not going to happen until I'm done school at the earliest, and that's IF I can talk Grant into it."

"I apologize for coming back to a subject that has already been asked. And," I think for a few moments "I believe that is all." I stand and hold out my hand. "It was a pleasure meeting you, Randy. I thank you for your time and wish you two the very best. I am also waiting for that piece of cake." I chuckle and walk out.

I asked him....Is the sex better in his were form or human? Do you two have sex in his were form more than in his human? Is his cock still human looking or something close to canine? Does having so many very sharp looking teeth in his muzzle make you fearful to let him suck on your member? Do you enjoy having him finger fuck you with his claw like fingers? Does that hurt more than using his human ones? His tail? Is it an added turn on or in the way? Does licking on him in his were form mean more hair in your mouth or do you shave him in all the right places? Do you find yourself being turn on more with him in his were form over his human one? Does his scent in his were form turn you on more than his human scent does?

He sighed and answered, "I have already answered several of these questions, you should really try to keep track, because I don't want to repeat myself anymore. Here are your answers. No, no, human, no, fuck no, tail is not involved, no I don't shave him, no, and there's no difference."

Sorry, I would had loved to keep up with the many of questions you were ask before I came along, but seeing how many had ask you question and I am in a rush right now, I didn't have to time and was amaze I took any to ask any questions at all.

He answered, "Yes, of course. You're forced to think back over all of those weird people you ever knew. Were they even human? Maybe, who knows? I try not to worry about it though. The past is gone after all.

And hmm.. Chocolate I think. I like chocolate. "

He answered, "My mother doesn't do a whole lot. She is a really quiet, unassuming person, but she doesn't make any effort to keep Dad in check either. Just goes along with whatever he says, like she doesn't even have her own personality. I mean.. they're still my parents, but my relationship with them is not a particularly loving one. They remind me of people I don't want to be."

I asked him...What do you do for a living, Randy? A full-time or part-time job/ And Grant does have a job, right? Where does he work? You're a sweet couple! Hope things remain strong between you!

He answered, "I am currently a student, going to the Culinary Academy here in Helenson. In the summer when school is out, I lend a hand at this awesome little bistro just a few blocks from the apartment. Grant.. works at CallTex, one of the local call centres, if you couldn't tell by the name. He's pretty good at it actually, he has a really great phone-voice, but he doesn't like it very much."

I asked him...Just curious, what state is Helenson in? Any large cities within a 1-2 hour drive?

Oh, and i forgot to ask above: What kind of music do you both like to listen to? Favorite bands?

He answered, "Well.. I like electronic and jazz music quite a lot, while Grant seems to have a soft spot for some of the newer rock/pop stuff."

He answered, "Well.. Helenson is the capital of Helenson province, of course, which is a part of the New World Federation, on the east coast."

He answered, "Grant is a bit.. erm.. well.. he likes to bite and claw in the sack you see. Not very hard of course, but I just assumed that he was talking about the same thing. Before anyone finds the body, well.. I just thought he was being stealthy, I don't know. Sure it sounded weird, but nobody actually expects their boyfriend to seriously murder a dude with claws. It was too absurd to take seriously."

I asked him, "What are the advantages, or more certainly, the good things, of a werewolf boyfriend?"

He answered, "Well, I feel very safe, and quite unique for one. When I secretly compare my boyfriend to everyone else's, like we all do from time to time, I always have in the back of my head 'well my boyfriend can bench press a car'. Beyond that, the things I like about Grant are not specific to him being a werewolf. Grant is just a good guy."

I asked him "i know that you're still a culinary student, but i was curious if there's a particular type of cuisine that you like to cook more than any other and seem to already have a knack for, i.e., Italian, Thai, Russian? And are there any interesting ethnic recipes that you've adopted from your Mom and/or Dad's sides of the family? There must be one or two, I'd imagine, coming from both Hawaii and Jamaica."

He answered, "You know, I'm looking forward to learning some Jamaican cooking, but you see.. my parents were always rather well-off. Cooking was a 'servant's trade' according to them, and we always had someone cook our meals when I was growing up, so I never learned anything from them. To me, cooking was a big mystery, which is why I got so interested in it.

I don't know that I have a particular thing I'm good at as far as ethnic food goes, but Grant tells me I make a pretty mean burger, and I have to agree. Anything that involves spicing meat I seem to get just right. "

I asked him, "If their was a way to make it so he would not have to feed off you or anyone else would you tell him? Or not?"

He answered, "Would I? No. That would be like asking me if I could stop eating, would I? As much as it's a biological need, food is also one of my greatest pleasures, and if you saw Grant 'feeding' you'd understand that it's much the same for him. He needs it, and he enjoys it, and without it, he wouldn't be quite the same."

I asked him, " If Grant never had his power would you still love him???"

He answered, "Of course I would. I did before I ever knew about it."

i asked him, "do u think that Grant will ever find out who his real parents r?"

He answered, "I doubt it. I think he's resentful of them for leaving him behind, and he's never expressed any interest in finding them."

I bow my head and say, "well maybe thay had a good reosan to leave like as if they were being hunted by people? or something like that"

I asked, "If Grant posed for you in any specific underwear, which one would turn your crank the most?"

(It's an honest question :P)

He answered, "I don't really know the answer to this question. He looks good in just about anything he tries, at least to me. "

He replied, "Fair enough. You're one lucky guy." He grinned.

I asked him, "Does he sing or howl in the shower?"

He answered, "Who doesn't? Sing that is. Grant doesn't howl. He sings emo-rock stuff."

I asked him "Is he usually in human or werewolf form when he showers?"

He answered, "That I've seen, only ever human. Not only is he much too large for the shower otherwise, but the hair clogs up the drain."

I asked him, "Does he have a fully quadrupedal lupine form?"

"Or has he evr tried to take that form?"

(Sorry, didn't notice your post below)

He answered, "Not that I have ever seen. He could not pass for a normal animal if that's what you mean."

I sat down, thinking to my questions. A bit long, since he began doing a "Well?" face. Finally, I asked: "I actually have two questions. First, how are his senses heightened? I mean, I know his smell sense goes to uber-levels and his hearing gets pretty boosted too, but what about the other ones? Especially the sight? And second, could you tell me more about this New World Federation?"

He thought a moment and answered, "It's hard to say. It's not as though his senses go up and down. He's just generally more sensitive than other people. His sight is good, but smell is the one that he talks about often. Perhaps it is better and he doesn't think to mention it? As for the NWF.. what is this a history lesson? I mean.. you're obviously also a citizen, right?"

I hurriedly changed the subject: "Er, did Grant get in a fight? I mean, a REAL fight? Like being mugged?"

He shook his head and replied, "No not to my knowledge. He IS the kind of guy you don't want to meet in a dark alley, so he doesn't have much fear of that."

I asked him, "How often has Grant startled you with his strength? Has he ever done it just to see your reaction?"

He answered, "I mentioned earlier that he could bench press a car. I'm not certain that he could, mind you, but I don't know where the limit of his strength is. Sometimes we play-wrestle and he lets me win, but there's no way in a million years I could ever overpower him. I guess the short answer to your question is not often, and probably."

I asked him, "Does Grant sound different when he's in his werewolf form than in his human form? Does he have a different pronounciation?"

He answered, "Yes, he does sound quite different, but there are still certain familiar qualities to his voice. It's difficult to explain. Mostly it sounds like he has to try harder to speak, but I understand he's been working at it for a long time, so he's perfectly capable of communicating."

I asked him, "Are there any sounds he has particular difficulty with?"

"Meaning, of course, sounds in the English Language?"

and i asked him mmm i wonder where you could be now.?

And there was no reply, for he was gone.

Farewell, Randy.
You'll be missed.
