Wow, thank you for spying on my personal messages, I'm very flattered.
[ Except he kind of is, because thank god somebody else cares about these stupid details. ]
As far as I know, there's nothing special about Pasiphae or any of the other planets. The weird part is how they all kept calling the Tranquility a ghost story.

Hey, what can I say. You were making just as much fun of Tony and I was bored. But that was where I got cut off.
[ This is where he'd be shrugging in real life because whatever bro, he is sorely lacking in the ability to have much of a guilty conscience anymore. And you were entertaining. ]
A ghost story, huh? So we're their version of the Flying Dutchman. That's great. Why couldn't we get the pirates that wanted to pull us back to shore to impress all their friends.

No.
[ It's a knee-jerk reaction, and it's totally a lie, so he corrects himself with some chagrin a second later. ]
I mean - yes, sometimes, but not on purpose. I usually try to trick the wolf out of killing anything.
[ Because a) it's traumatizing to wake up covered in deer corpse and b) it's awful to digest the next day. ]

[ Whatever, he's had worse invasions of privacy. ]
Sounds about right, except for the part where the Flying Dutchman didn't involve government conspiracies. Some of the pirates were making noises about the Evil Empire.
Which makes sense, obviously. No space epic is complete without one of those.

You - [First instinct is to ask why, because the alternative is always so much worse. But Andy has to remember not every kind of wolf is the same. His family made a point of not being mistaken for werewolves. They were an entirely different myth. And just a myth, for that matter.]
Can you do that?
Can you do that?
Yeah, usually. It's not like it has a PhD.
[ WOLVES ARE DUMB txt it. ]
If you string up some meat in an abandoned area, it'll usually get preoccupied with that. Sometimes deer still wander through, but-
[ Deer and other things. No humans, luckily, but he may have had to deal with the taste of vampire in his mouth the next morning once or twice. ]
So you can completely control it? It doesn't hurt, does it?
[ The question's nearly rhetorical. He's asked the same of other shifters, and it's been a pretty universal 'no'. ]

[ Oh good, shop talk. He can handle that. ]
Depends. Usually around the end of the 'month' for me, but it varies. The jumps aren't clockwork, and there's no moon, so it seems to vary depending on the wolf.
I usually just wait until I'm feeling particularly wolfy, it's been accurate so far.

Why the hell would he hallucinate you? Not that you wouldn't make a lovely hallucination.
[ Oh my god why does he feel vaguely offended. ]
He's adjusting. I'm sure he'll still be a jerk once he has, but we should give him a chance, right?
And boy, do you know romance. When?

[George had been intending to text Josh, get a day, and then probably throw his communicator on the ground and stomp on it so he never had to talk to anyone ever again. But that sort of...necessitates...more...]
Hold on; what do you mean, it depends on the wolf? It's not an internal thing. It comes from the moon.

You never know. I knew a few D&D kids back in the day, pretty sure that would've been right up their alley.
[ Wow that was an awful joke MOVING ON... ]
I know of him. More of a friend of a friend kind of thing.
[ Or an alternate universe kind of a thing, but that's weirdly embarrassing. ]
I can be free in a few. Where do you want to meet?

Of course I can. Only that's probably linked to the moon, isn't it, so if we suddenly sweep past a moon that the bloody curse considers full then it'll be spontaneous wolf. I've no real desire to cock it up, thanks, so a suggestion for a room with a great big bar across it would be appreciated.
