[duracells]

i know
devon told me. i’m really sorry you had to see that. i’m sorry it happened at all

listen, just because someone mentions your name - that doesn’t mean it has to be you.
alright?
has there been any reason someone might suspect you before now?
anything you might recognize if you saw it?

[wicka]

[ Oh no. Does he trust Neon with what Iggy said in private?

He remembers Ren's words.

He can't. ]

Just the witch thing
But that was all of us
Witches I mean

[duracells]

[ a long, long pause. ]

what about the paw prints?

[wicka]

The hellhound ones?

[duracells]

the ones that were found behind the altar.

[ the ones he's not so sure were august's doing, now, if the theory that the alpha is beheading captured wolves is correct. ]

[wicka]

I only heard about the paw prints that were burning or whatever

There were others?

[duracells]

no, those are the ones
but if the alpha is killing the wolves that end up in the cage
then i'm not so sure those were his doing

[ don't freak out dom, this isn't an accusation. ]

[wicka]

So u think it would have killed August instead of Shauna?

[duracells]

if august was guilty, sure. maybe.
but i think it's also possible that we're getting it backwards, too.
i haven't done the math on it, though. so.

[wicka]

IDK
I just heard about the hellhounds and that Theo's wife said it was him

[duracells]

august thought it could be himself, too.
the evidence fits in more ways than one.
but august is still alive.

if i measured those prints with my own hand

[ his hand, which has held dom's twice now, once halfway between human and wolf, and once with dom's big paw in his palm. ]

do you think i'd find anything interesting?

[wicka]

So is the Danny guy

I don't know
How big are hellhounds?

[duracells]

maybe danny is the alpha.
i'm not sure why everyone's so quick to rule that out.

i can't say.
i've never seen one.

[wicka]

We woke up with Shauna's head on our bed, Neon

[ Whoa, using his name. ]

How do u think he left it there if he's locked up

[duracells]

how do you think the heads are making it out of the cage?
saber's head was bruised in a way that suggested it was shoved through the bars.
do you think an alpha couldn't command its pack?

[wicka]

[ Well. ]

I don't know

[ He's never had an alpha....... ]

[duracells]

[ these were all rhetorical questions anyway, so he carries on. ]

i'm not asking you this because i think it's possible, i'm asking because i'm hoping to be able to rule it out
do you think you could be a wolf, dom?

[wicka]

[ Again, after a longer while: ]

I don't know

[ And he's putting his phone down to curl up in bed. Neon might have to stop by if he wants to keep talking. ]
