» we like our choruses sung together , we like our arms in our brothers’ arms
see : peter pan’s lost boys ; a townhouse that is falling apart and occupied by just enough people to cover rent ; the gaslight anthem’s blue jeans & white t-shirts ; the frat boy adjacent example of puer aeternus ; the place you wind up when you have nowhere else to go ; j solomon’s friends ; the menzinger’s your wild years ; emotions run high when everyone is a wild animal ; cavetown’s boys will be bugs ; dysfunctional found family scraping by ; showtime’s shameless ; just the slightest sprinkle of the wild energy of grace krilanovich’s the orange eats creeps in that this is a house full of rogue shifters and things are bound to burn close to the surface in need of : a few masc - identifying and nonbinary rogue shifters of various types , all between the ages of twenty three and twenty nine , and one couch surfing unseelie fey of any gender tw ahead : alcohol & drug mentions ; possible setting typical violence
with everyone building up, up and stretching towards the sky like the stars are a promise, single family homes are harder to find in wild acres. if you think you’ve found one in the one at the end of the block , pealing paint and drowning in the shadow of something taller , you are unfortunately mistaken. it gives itself away by the gaggle of boys who spill from it’s doors and windows , with the way the fridge is never empty but never seems to contain the right thing to make a meal , the way the couch you see when you walk in is actually a trundle bed — rolled out for whoever needs a place to stay , for the night or for the next six weeks.
the lease sees people come and go, to the point where none of the current occupants were there five years ago when it was all set in motion ; just a series of daisy - chained sublets and renewals. the thing that stuck though, was that the little house would house shifters with no pack. it was never explicitly stated , but they found out pretty quickly that few wanted to deal with them besides those who understood how the shift impacted them. soon enough , it was a house full of rogues. oh, and tink, but that’s another story.
trouble was, they never had a leader officially. trouble was, they had peter, but we know that story already, don’t we? the lost boys grow up, or maybe this time it was peter. something new for a story played out so many times, married wendy and walked away. that’s what happens when a lost boy finds a witch. left the boys with a house and each other. well fuck, boys. what are we going to do? march on, boys, the same as we always have. drink beers on the new moon and lick our wounds the morning after. do our best not to kill each other.
that last one is pretty important.
tootles : avian shifter. likely to do most things on a dare. fomo personified. loyal. has a knack for fixing the things that break around the house.
nibs : nathanael quinn, coyote shifter. trying to keep everything together. tired. has a habit of bringing people home. quick temper.
slightly : canine shifter. bad liar. musically inclined. cocky. prefers nicer bars to the house parties the boys like to throw.
curly : canine shifter. good at getting into trouble. himbo energy. soft - spoken. unwittingly the glue of the group.
twin #1 : feline shifter. easily mistaken for twin #2. always reading. stoner. good at pranks.
twin # 2 : feline shifter. easily mistaken for twin #1. keeps a garden in the backyard. also a stoner. unironically loves a cat nap in a sunny window.
tink : unseelie fey. supposedly couch surfing, but has been here for longer than expected. charming. knew peter better than they know the others.
* please note this is not a pack request, and the rogues will basically fit under the larger site - wide rogue pack, they just also have their own issues.
