    Starseeker, still in his funk about... his situation, is currently spending his afternoon in Tur, keeping an eye out just to keep an eye out. He's also, in an attempt to look like something other than a homeless bum that's just hanging around (sometimes he really thinks the Seekers should make Shadow Tongue bathe more and eat fewer Raccoons) he's got his guitar out, playing the Sesame Street theme, in the hopes that it would make him feel better.

    It doesn't. He wonders if he cuts himself, would bad poetry spill out instead?

    Ah, the pleasures of being off-duty, but with that revelation, there was always an accompanying question. What to do with it? The first strains of an oncoming cold (at least, he thought it was a cold) made his choices just a little bit more constricted. Of course, he was off-duty, so what did it really matter?

    Maybe a walk in the park would do that cold some good? You know, get some fresh air and some time to think; yeah, that'd do it. Hands held deep in pockets to ward off the slight breeze and temperature, he very nearly missed the strumming of the intro.

    Sesame Street? What the...? More out of confusion than any sort of curiosity, Morgan turned about and headed towards the music. Whoever had decided to play the song certainly held his current attention, even if the words that came back in response weren't exactly in English; because it never hurts to maintain fluency in a language when your job depended on it.

    Starseeker isn't a fantastic player, but he's fair at it. He's also really good at noticing people noticing him. When he hears the man speak Communist, he shifts the music from Sesame Street to a more appropriate song while he narrows his eyes. Too far away for a scent, could this man be a spy?

    Oh look at that, his guitar case is sitting there wide open and there's a few dollars and some change in it.

    As the song changes to something that he doesn't know, the spoken 'accompaniment' fades, though Morgan continues to walk towards the musician. The music wasn't all that terrible and he guessed the open case was for tips.

    Decent music meant a decent tip. Or, failing that, decent enough praise. Cash wasn't scarce for the man, but he didn't always have money on him. A neutral expression hung on his face as he walked by before stopping, dropping his hands into his pocket.

    Presumably to get a few dollar bills.

    The guitarist looks this maybe-Communist over as he approaches. He's not one of the People, his nose tells him that much, is he reaching for a weapon? Could he be some kind of Assassin for the Pure? Or just someone willing to add to his seed money? Only one way to find out.

    "How's the day treating you stranger?"

    "Any day where I can enjoy a walk in the park is a good one. Yourself?"

    The hand slides back out of its pocket, a random assortment of change and bills present. Throwing them into the case, he folds his arms and stands patiently, waiting for a response. Sometimes, having someone to just exchange courtesies with and not have to worry about rank and protocol was refreshing.

    Of course, being cooped up with people whose collective intelligence far outweighed their common sense made any time off seem like a godsend.

    Starseeker strums his guitar in time with his response "Fantastic, it's a great day for being outside I think." He glances down at the offering and spys what might be a $10 bill. Shiny. "You new in town? I've never seen you in this park before."

    Brandon had come to Sacramento crammed in the back of a pick-up with six Mexicans - all of whom smelled like cigarette smoke and cheap liquor, jabbered in Spanish the entire time, and looked at him funny when he asked if any of them 'habla english'.

    He had decided on California's capitol city because a cell-mate he'd had a few years ago had talked it up. Evidently it was a town where a guy could get lost in, and that's where Brandon needed to be - especially where the police were concerned. Anyway, he could smell the cops coming a mile off most of the time - they smelled like gun-oil, leather, and arrogance - and whenever he smelled that he tried his best to steer clear. Not that he had anything to worry about from a few cops, not anymore, he'd just hate to have to find a new city again so soon.

    So the first thing he does when he gets into town is sniff out Tur. He'd learned only a few things since his First Change and one thing was that you don't want to walk around in the territory of bigger dogs without letting them know you were there first. So Brandon seeks out to meet some of the locals.

    Coming to Fremont Park he smiles to find that, in this city, Tur is a pleasant little park in the middle of town. As soon as he gets near he catches the scent of another wolf. He follows his nose, (like Toucan Sam Brandon likes to think with a smile) until he finds a man with a guitar talking with another man. Well, the one with the guitar wasn't really a man but a werewolf, like himself. Brandon could smell it on the guy as plainly as he could see the color of his skin.

    Brandon had never been the shy type. Hell, in prison that wasn't an option. He walks right up to where the two are talking, nodding to Starseeker and saying in a rough but conversational way "Hey, how's it going?"

    Adam wandered into the area he had recently discovered was the Tur and immediately was hit by the smell of other Uratha not far away. His cold smile extended slightly as he moved at a slow jog along the bike path, heading towards it source.


    It would be good to meet other wolves on neutral ground rather than their own territory. Less fighting and perhaps a bit more talking. It was also a good way to find a less established pack that required a little bit of extra help, which the packs so far didn't really seem to need.


    He jogged out in front of the three wolves wearing a nice pair of cargo pants, a black muscle shirt and a nice beaten up leather jacket hanging over top. His eyes darted between the three figures, sizing them up as he slowed his approach back to a walk.


    "Gentlemen. Nice night for a walk and some music?"
