Werewolf AU Romance - April

☽✩ the werewolf pack (au) romance meme ✩☾


There are many supernatural beings that congregate in groups for survival or protection or just for companionship, not unlike humans. Witches have covens. Vampires have nests. But none of those have connections that can compare to the bond of a werewolf pack.

You should know. You're part of one, either born a werewolf or turned. For humans, blood is thicker than water; for wolves, the pack is to the bone. Of course, with humans, romantic relationships can complicate closeness of other sorts. That's not the case with werewolf pairings, as they tend to grow out of natural pack dynamics and are viewed as just another facet of life. The only difference is that werewolves tend to treat relationships, even potential would-be-mates, with extreme seriousness.

After all, you'll fight for your pack, so you'll fight for your mate, won't you?

✩ how to play ✩
☾ Comment with your character, preference, and information!
☽ Reply to others.
☾ RNG. Also, please note that while the words "alpha" et al. are used, this isn't a meme for that AU.


✩ prompts ✩

Born: Your parents were werewolves. Any children you have will be wolves, too.
The Turning Process: Like any transformation, the after effects of the bite are painful. Luckily you have someone to guide you through it, either the person who bit you, or someone who's found you in the nick of time.
With Who Turned You: You're romantically or sexually linked to your "creator," so to speak, probably because you have nowhere else to go. They seem to treasure you, though, no matter how much they hide it.
Alphas: Both of you are top of the pack.
Alpha and Beta: It's a classic case of the leader and the second in command: a perfect team up.
Omegas: You two find solace in each other even when you're both at the bottom of the pack structure.
Closer Than Family: The romantic and platonic lines are blurred. You honestly can't think of any reason why you shouldn't be mates, regardless of the pack structure or what your family thinks of your choice.
Outside Threat: Your pack and your loved one is threatened. What won't you do?
Reluctant: You don't want to be with anyone, but it's expected and they're the closest in the pack to you...
All I've Ever Known: All you've ever known is the werewolf existence, the pack, and them. Of course you would never want to lose that.
Can't be Together: You two should not be considering a potential pairing, either due to your status difference or because your alpha has proclaimed there will be no inter-pack mingling.
Everyone Else Was Taken: You had no other option; everyone else was paired.
Protector: Every pack has an instinctive protector or nurturer. You've lucked out and ended up with them.
A Natural Closeness: It doesn't matter to you what you're defined as. You've always been close and you'll stay that way.
Affection: Werewolves show their love in different ways that humans. Nuzzling and licking aren't considered odd at all.
Fall into Step: The two of you have your pack positions and proclivities and they're the same in your relationship.
Reverse: The submissive in the pack becomes a dominant in the relationship and vice versa.
Two-Man Pack: The rest of your pack is gone, and you two have to stick it out.
Rogue: You were once a lone wolf, but a special person brought you into the fold. Understandably, you're attached to them.
Kin but Not: "Family" doesn't mean exactly the same thing in werewolf society as it does in human. There are fewer taboos between "siblings."
Disciplined: You're a rule breaker, and your partner has to reel you in.
Living Straight: Neither of you wants to hurt humans...yet there's always that urge.
Bad Duo: Killing people and raising hell are your specialties. You're a real supernatural Bonnie and Clyde.
Unrequited: Even werewolves can have feelings that aren't returned. However, it's an even more fragile scenario, given that you must still be pack after this.
Got Your Back: Together, you hunt and fight. Always together.
Love Outside the Pack: You've found love outside the pack, which is the ultimate sin. Everyone who isn't pack should be your enemy! The other person in this thread can be a human, vampire, etc.
Life Mates: Wolves mate for life. Needless to say, this is not something you should go into lightly.
Heat: The obligatory smut option.
Fight for the One: Someone wants to challenge you for your mate. There's no question as to whether or not you'll fight for them - but will you kill?
Leave: One of you wants to leave the pack. Will the other come along, or are ties too strong?
A Brutal End: The life of a werewolf, especially those who let sentiment cloud their judgement, can be painfully brief.
WILDCARD: Anything is possible. Feel free to make any option gen or non-romantic.

[Cast/crosscanon/dceu/mcu/ocs welcome. (No Kilgraves) As for AU ideas, I prefer having her be bitten/turned and not born. Either during the accident/experimentation of her accident, or from Kilgrave (which leads to some twisted understandings of pack dynamics and likely a lack of healthy werewolf understandings and shunning most wolf culture). I'm happy to play with wolves being secret hush-hush, or as an open secret, or fully part of the world that people are all aware of. I'm also good with having her incorporate into canons that I'm familiar enough with to work in reasonably. Feel free to PM or work something out if you're unsure of exact specifics, but I'm pretty happy to roll with a lot. I like woofs. Woof me up.]

[ok! lmk if this starter is ok/needs changes/etc]

Arthur had definitely not chosen his life, but it was a life he was grateful to have.

As he lay dying on that mountain, beaten by Micah and wracked by the tuberculosis, he thought it was the end. But as the sun rose, he changed, his breaths, once knives and fire, became normal, his body that of a bear. He could only guess it was that encounter in the cabin some months prior, a bear had torn a hole in the wall and they surprised one another. He'd gotten bitten in the scuffle but lived, and thought little else of the event.

Took some time to come around to this life, but in the end, it was what he always wanted, more or less. Free of law, free of fear, no need to follow civilization's norms. He was wild and the only thing he had to worry about was food.

Which really wasn't all that big of a worry. While he wasn't a real bear, his diet was the same, and that was almost anything. Raw fish, bugs, honey when he could find it, some grasses, hell, even this half frozen deer carcass.

It was winter, all other bears would be hibernating by now, but either because he hadn't built up reserves to do so, or because werebears couldn't hibernate, he was forced to forage and remain awake.

He came upon the deer, dead from exposure or starvation, hard to say, but, his meal now and he started to tear into it when the smell of something else came near. Wolf. Great, there goes lunch.

No, it wasn't, it was wolf but not like any he'd smelled before...
