[quick note - we were bored, i had no more muse for the other threads, so i decided to send some sparks flying that i'd been saving up... Julianna is now back from Vegas, the others are not.]
Julianna struts into the Rec Room as if she owns the place, instantly heading for one particular chair by the fire. It was occupied by a third year, at whom she raised an eyebrow and snarled, "Get up. Now." The third year glared at her, trying to be tough, but a moment later she slipped out of the chair and scurried away with her friends. Julianna flopped down in the chair with a satisfied smirk, calling after the littl'uns in a sing-song voice, "Miss me?"

Autumn walks in, Logan and Derek behind her. "You can't just expect that he's going to do it day after day, Autumn," Logan was saying. "I know, but he could at least know enough not to do it around me," she says. She looks for an open seat and her gaze stops on Julianna. "I'm thinking it's good that we meet here on a regular basis," Derek comments as he sees why Autumn stopped. "Janelle should be here soon."

Seeing Autumn looking at her, Julianna raises an eyebrow and says, "I know, it's not every day you see a goddess incarnate, but don't you have a boyfriend?"
Just then, said boyfriend walks in with Janelle and Layali. Chaosti is looking a bit pissed as he asks to clarify, "You were alone in the forest with a guy you just met?" Janelle rolls her eyes and says, "I wasn't alone. Derek was there. And what's the big deal, anyway? It's not like he's a werelion or anything.." "Yes, but-" Almost simultaneously, the group spots Julianna. After taking a moment to register this, Chaosti goes from looking a bit pissed to looking downright livid. Janelle grins and says, "Julianna!" Layali looks at everyone's expressions and just quietly drifts over to Logan's side, tip-toeing as though if she made a sound it would cause the tension in the room to snap.

Autumn glares at Julianna, but lightens up when Janelle brightens up and Chaosti comes in. Logan slips an arm around Layali's waist in a silent greeting. Derek stands there, not wanting to get in the way.

Janelle starts to go to Julianna, but Chaosti intercepts her and steps in front of Julianna, snarling as he stabs a finger in Janelle's direction, "What the hell do you think gives you the right to abandon her like that?" Julianna stands up and snarls back in his face, "And who made you king of the world?"

Autumn grabs Chaosti's arm and steps in front of him. "Maybe we should tell her the whole story before blowing up in her face." Derek stands next to Janelle.
And Todd's sitting in the corner invisible...

Though tight-lipped and furious, Chaosti nods, a short, jerky movement, and steps back. "That's right, Jar-Jar, crawl back to Obi-Wanita and lick her boots," Julianna sneers. Chaosti growls, a low rumble in his throat, and snaps, "Do you have any idea what Janelle's been through while you were off gallavanting around?"

Autumn glares at Julianna. "While you were gone, we did a spell so that she could remember more things. Do you know what she remembered?"

"Her first kiss from a guy who actually has testosterone?" Julianna asks sarcastically, shooting a disapproving look at Derek. Chaosti's growl deepens and he trembles slightly from the effort it takes not to do anything rash.

Derek starts to go after Julianna but thinks better of it. Autumn contains her anger but continues the conversation. "She was raped."

Julianna stares at Autumn for a long moment, then she explodes into a rage, whirling towards Janelle. She grabs the girl by the arms, shaking her a bit as she screams, "WHO?! WHO'S THE GUTTER SON OF A WHORE THAT DID THIS TO YOU?!" Janelle looks a little bit alarmed, but has no chance to react as Chaosti has moved from his post. He jerks Julianna away from Janelle by the upper arm and yells, "Don't you dare yell at her! You were the one who wasn't there when she needed you - twice! In the past when it happened, and when she remembered it and needed the support of her family! You are her family, and you didn't even have the decency to tell her you were going!" Both of their inner 'beasts' were rising, shifter energy crawling just beneath the surface of their skin. Where he still had hold of her arm, the different and yet faintly similar energies crackled like static upon meeting in skin-to-skin contact. If either one had happened to have a submissive 'beast', the conflict would perhaps have resolved itself more easily. However, both had the heart of a dominant, an Alpha, and neither one was backing down. "Release me, snake!" Julianna spat, baring her teeth in a threatening snarl.
[wheeee! shifter fight! *grabs popcorn, nachos, and a soda*]

"Don't do this!" Autumn says, trying toget between the two. "It would just be worse if Janelle lost either one of you. And Julianna, I would kill you if you killed him. And Chaosti, Janelle would never forgive you for killing her. So how about we all just take a breath and let Janelle talk for once. If she wants to, that is."

Logan looks over at Foxy and groans. "Julianna's just gotten back, so you might want to stay out of it for a while."

Foxy blinked and looked at Julianna then back at Logan. "She left?"

[lol!]
It was a staring contest between the two, their eyes both shifted into those of their respective beasts. Chaosti dug his fingers a bit harder into her arm, deliberately goading her, and in response she snarled, unsheathing claws that were suddenly there and taking a swipe at the arm that had a vice-grip on hers. Four long slices appeared, not deep, but not something to bat an eyelash at either. Chaosti hissed an released her arm, and both fell back to move into fighting stance when Layali stepped up next to Autumn, echoing her words. "Stop it! This is childish and selfish! You're hurting Janelle more than you're hurting each other! Such utter idiocy!"
