The Alpha and your father questioned you both when you returned home. Kyle made some excuse about the wolf getting curious about the human world and dragging you along. You, of course, agreed with everything your brother said to save your hides. It happened sometimes. A werewolf's wolf would get curious and wander into the suburbs of the human world. There was really nothing to be done about it since we don't have control. They'd let us off the hook. "I really owe you one." You muttered to Kyle as you both walked away. "Take me with everytime you go with Papyrus. I'm legit curious about the monsters too, and Sans does smell oddly nice. I didn't think that tomato, vinegar, and pine would go well together but on him it does." You narrowed your eyes. "Oh, who has a crush now?" Kyle snorted, shaking his head. "An interest, definitely, but we only just met. I'd like to check out the merchandise a bit more first." You gaped at him. "Well look at you hunt, Mr. Beta Wolf." You nudged him. "Hey, you're not the only one they've been pressuring to get a mate, you know."

"so, uh, those were some, uh, how in stars name did you befriend werewolves of all creatures?" Sans asked Papyrus, still sorting through the events of the day. "WELL!" Papyrus put a fist on his hip, holding up a finger. "IT STARTED WHEN I GOT LOST IN THE WOODS." Sans sweatdropped. "i shoulda figured.." Papyrus continued, regardless of Sans comment. "I HAD NO SERVICE SO I FIGURED IF I KEPT WALKING I'D FIND THE ROAD EVENTUALLY! BUT I FOUND [Y/N] INSTEAD! OR SHE FOUND ME... EITHER WAY, SHE WAS KIND ENOUGH TO LEAD ME BACK TO THE ROAD AND THINGS CONTINUED FROM THERE!" Sans rose a brow. "just like that?"
"JUST LIKE THAT. THIS IS ADMITTEDLY MY FIRST TIME MEETING KYLE. HE SEEMED NICE." Sans did have to agree with that. "yeah, very relaxed... for a werewolf." Papyrus gasped. "COULD IT BE THAT MY BROTHER HAS MADE A FRIEND?!" Sans scoffed. "i'm just saying, i thought werewolves would be, y'know, different. bloodthirsty. savage." Papyrus shook his head. "FOR SHAME SANS, YOU SHOULDN'T BE STEREOTYPING THEM."
"... ok, what about [N/N]? what's up with you and her?" Papyrus gave Sans a curious look. "[N/N]...? OH! YOU MEAN [Y/N]! WELL, SHE IS A VERY GOOD FRIEND! I THINK I SHALL TAKE HER ON A DATE!"

"Ethan... Oliver... what have you done?!" You snarled, the two wolf pups freezing in place, maws open wide in midattack. The house was a disaster, the furniture toppled and photos and trinkets from hunts and such scattered on the floor. Kyle sighed heavily. "If the Alpha decides to join us for dinner, he and dad will both be pretty mad.." The wolves turned boys scrambled to their feet quickly. "We'll clean up!" Oliver said quickly. "You should REALLY stop leaving us alone." Ethan pointed out. The two older wolves looked at each other. "He's got a point." Kyle stated. "I'll.. see about having one of the Phi's (pupsitters) watch them.." You grumbled before glaring at Kyle. "Hey wait, why don't you do it? You're a higher rank!"
"As a higher ranking wolf, I demand you figure it out." He shot back. You sighed again, before giving an evil grin. "You're not Beta yet, you're not the boss of me."
"As your older brother, I am." You couldn't think of another comeback and gave up on the argument all together, going to help your brothers clean up their mess.

You tapped on your windowsill as you legitimately thought about going after Papyrus. He had more of a chance at gaining you affection than any male around here. Besides. Kyle was apparently thinking of Sans as a potential mate already, so maybe you could give it a shot? See how it goes? Would Papyrus even pick up on your interest though? You could only assume that werewolf courting and monster courting was different. Perhaps you would have to just be blunt with him when you next met. You could get Papyrus to yourself and leave Sans and Kyle alone so they could get to know each other. Kyle could 'check out the merchandise' or whatever it was he said earlier. It would be cool if Kyle took a liking to Sans, then maybe you both could introduce the wolves to coexistence with the monsters. Kyle had more influence so it would work better if he was also with a monster. Though if he didn't get with Sans, he would probably still back you up if you and Papyrus worked out. "Only time will tell what happens at this point... when did I get into stupid pack politics anyway..?"
