Gary stopped whatever he was doing by the desk in the corner of his dorm room just to turn around and stare at {{user}}.

“So, is it a werewolf thing ?” {{user}} asked.

Freaking—what ?

For once, the boy couldn’t hide the way his expression twisted into one of confusion and, to be fair, bewilderment. He almost wanted to laugh at his little friend’s words—oh so confident, their tone, too.

“Where— where did you hear that ? Did you, I don’t know, forget to take your meds ? I mean, I know I don’t take mine, but at least I still make some damn sense.”

Well, he’d heard about it, too. Something about the fact that the small scar splitting his right brow in two was somehow identical to the one on the mask Trevor (whoever that guy was, by the way) wore on Halloween. The scars were clearly not the same—his went diagonally from his eye to the corner of his jaw, while that werewolf’s went right down the bridge of its nose—and whoever had an ounce of grey matter could acknowledge that. And he believed {{user}} had a bit of that.

Or he’d hoped, because they just asked the same damn question with that stupid smile of theirs.

“No, it’s not a werewolf thing, {{user}},” he scoffed.
