Tahlah let out a laugh, shifting into her wolf form. It was like a favorite outfit, broken in just right. She let out a bark and ran off, paws kicking up dust.

Laughing himself, Derek pushed off with his feet, alternating the energy under his feet and soon was keeping pace with Tahlah. She was graceful in her wolf form, and it still took Derek some exertion to keep up. For the first time since he was here, he was using his powers for fun. And he was loving every minute of it.

Tahlah skidded to a stop, shifting back and adjusting her jeans, which were slipping off her hips. "Ah, I missed that. Can't do that in a city like Houston." She smiled, watching Derek.

Derek planted himself next to Tahlah, letting his energy slow himself down. Breathing heavily, he looked up, "Fast one, aren't ya?"

"Sometimes. I love the wolf form, they're graceful, beautiful, fast, and deadly." She grinned, then sighed. "I missed doing that."

Falling back on the grass, Derek grinned. "First time I've ever had to run that fast in my life." Okay maybe that was a lie, but Tahlah didn't need to know that. "You're a fun person to be around Tahlah."

"You're pretty fun yourself, Derek." She laughed, shifting into an orange tabby kitten and purring as she rubbed up against him.

Petting Tahlah, and placing her on his stomach, chuckled and said, "And now you're being cute."

Tahlah purred again, curling up into a fluff-ball on Derek's stomach, watching him.

Still staring up to the sky, he scratched Tahlah's head. (That sounds weird out of context.) It was nice spending time with someone, not like Artemis where there was also a bit of tension, or Anna where it just devolved into awkwardness. Looking back at Tahlah, Derek said, "You're turning out to be a great person to have fun with."

Tahlah purred again, mewed, and crawled off of Derek's stomach, shifting back to human to lay next to him. "You're pretty nice as well. What year are you?"

He watched as Tahlah shifted back to her human form, laying next to him. Derek answered he question, "A freshman, though I should be a sophomore." If only my uncle wasn't a idiot who burned all the files of my identity...

"I'm a sophomore. Are there any others you think I should meet?" She asked softly, wishing she could have kept her cat ears. They were so useful sometimes...

Derek racked his head out of the people he has met at Oceanside. "Well, I have a sister, and she's pretty cool, but she's in the infirmary. You could meet Lyra, she's a senior, and she's become one of my best friends in the few weeks I've been here. Oh, and you should meet Toshie and Vergil, Toshie is a sweet asian girl, and Vergil is actually my roommate." Derek checked his watch, then sighed. "I actually don't think any of them around right now though."

"Lyra, Vergil, and Toshie. And.... what's your sister's name?" She let out a soft sound, shifting into a Bengal tiger and back. "Sorry, can't control it sometimes."
