bit of an error at the end i think you mushed together two separate dialog sentences.

Well Peter did have to pick up the habbit, that or go to the funny farm after telling some people what has happened so far.

Dill has to watch grinning to much, or someone will catch on before long.

I don't think anyone would catch on, just from Dill's behavior. I think they would have to see it happen or be told in a very convincing way. After all, they never see the injuries. It's not uncommon for people to have far less injuries than what they appear to have at first glance.

Caphlmi: a new medical procedure that replaces various organs with werewolf caphls.

AnakMoon -
Thanks!

daymon34 -
Peter had to pick up the habit...?

What habit?

Or did you mean to say rabbit?

In which case...what rabbit?

Um the Muse -
Exactly. Well, I don't know about the "less injuries" part, but...

Imagine this: a 10-year-old boy tells you he's a werewolf. In real life. He lives down the street from you.

Do you believe him?

Of COURSE not.

Because WEREWOLVES DON'T EXIST.

These characters live in the same universe you and I live in, where medical doctors wouldn't actually believe a 10-year-old boy is a werewolf unless they saw the transformation with their own eyes. And even then, they wouldn't believe it until they had done experiment after experiment and probably killed it with silver.

And even then they would probably come up with some genetic mutation explanation.

Because werewolves DON'T EXIST.




...right?
