open to sigmund and darby (backdated to right after sigmund and graham's fight/shift]
Casey had so many questions about Graham, but most he was afraid to ask. All right, all of them he was afraid to ask. It was intimidating to know that Sigmund had someone in the pack who'd meant so much to him. And Graham was gorgeous. Older. He was one of Sigmund's own kind. So yeah, it was difficult not to feel a little bit insecure about the older man.

Sitting on the porch, Casey was waiting for Sigmund to come back from a run. Graham was gone as well, and knowing that they were nude while shifting? That made Casey a little bit antsy. He'd woken up alone in bed, and when he came down and neither Sigmund or Graham were around he assumed they were somewhere together. Probably on a run. What that meant, Casey was sure it wasn't bad or sexual. It just... was what it was.

He had no idea that Darby was in the house, in a room upstairs, waking up to the same sort of scenario. Actually, Casey had no idea who Darby even was.

With a sigh, he dipped his head down to try and concentrate on the book he was reading, but it really wasn't working. He was so high strung at the moment that everyone in the house could probably feel it.

Casey let out a soft laugh at Sigmund's words before he nodded his head and got to his feet. He fetched some clean clothes before he waited for Sigmund to lead the way. A shower sounded good after such a satisfying romp, and of course Sigmund in the shower with him only made it even better.

Graham couldn't help but let out a soft, low laugh against the hollow of Darby's throat before he pulled his head back so that he could meet the other wolf's eyes. His fingers swept through Darby's hair before they curled in it to give a little tug.

"Sigmund always gave in, too," he pointed out, though Darby didn't really know that. "It was just in a different way."

Heading to the bathroom, Sigmund glanced down the hall in the direction of Darby and Graham's room. He very much wanted the threat of a hunter to be gone so that he could go back to his own place.

Once they were in the bathroom, Sigmund turned on the shower and glanced back at Casey. "So what do you think of that Darby kid?"

Darby quirked a brow at that. "Always?" He couldn't imagine Sigmund giving in, but he knew how unrelenting Graham could be. "I don't really want to stay here. I think I'd go crazy in a pack."

Unlike Sigmund, Casey wasn't use to being naked in a pack, so he scooted along and hurried into the bathroom before anyone could see him. Once inside, he sat his things down and turned to look over at the older man.

"I don't know," he said with a shrug, "He seemed nice. A little jealous of you, though." Which Casey could most definitely relate to because he was insecure as fuck over Graham's presence.

"Yes," Graham replied as he laid back, but kept Darby on his lap so now the boy was straddling him, and his hands were on Darby's hips. "It's not so bad. It takes some getting use to. I come back around a few times a year," he added, though Sigmund lived off of pack land so it was easier to avoid him. This time around, it wasn't so easy.

"Are you jealous of Graham? Nothing happened out there except the exact same thing that always happens between us: we fight, I give up." He used to fight back, but eventually, the effort became not worth the payoff. He hated the way submitting made him feel, but he hated the way fighting felt even more.

Darby liked being on top and staring down at Graham beneath him. He was in a far better mood now and he quirked the slightest of smiles. "I like travelling with you. I fit better in a small pack. Just you and me and maybe anyone else you rescue along the way."

Casey slipped into the shower, beneath the hot water and let it wash over him before he turned to look at Sigmund, who still hadn't gotten in just yet.

"No, not jealous," he said honestly. "Maybe insecure, but not jealous. I mean, I trusted you out there with him. I didn't think you'd do anything to hurt me. He's just... Hard not to feel insecure about, you know? I mean - what if one of my ex's came back around?"

"So I'm your pack?" Graham asked, a brow arching up, but he was smiling. He was in a good mood now, too.

Just then, he heard scratching at the door and he lifted his head up to look over at it with a furrowed brow. It took less than a second for him to figure out it was probably one of the little ones.

"Sounds like we have a guest at the door," he said as he patted Darby's leg gently, then got up to go over and open the door. Julian, a ball of white fluff, trotted inside with Darby's game controller and set it down at his feet and Graham couldn't help but laugh a little bit.

Sigmund was having a pretty good time just watching the water run over Casey. It sort of froze him in place for a few seconds and he practically forgot about the question he'd asked in the first place. When he came back to his senses, he looked slightly sheepish as he got into the shower and switched Casey places so he could get wet too. "If one of your ex's came back around I would make out with you frequently in front of him so that he could see how weak I can make your knees. Then, if he didn't go away, I would eat him."

Darby nodded. "Yes, you're my pack." With his family gone, Graham was the only pack Darby had left and the only pack he wanted now.

When the little wolf came in, Darby looked surprised. "He's so small! He's a puppy. That's not supposed to happen." He stared down at the little one like he was a complete freak of nature. Darby's understanding of werewolfism was very basic and in his limited experience, he'd never seen this happen.

Casey couldn't help but let out a soft laugh of amusement as he wrapped his arms around Sigmund's waist from behind. He pressed a kiss against the center of his back, just in between his shoulderblades before he let out a soft sigh.

"You know, I almost believe you," he mumbled, "Well, about the eating part."

Graham came over to kneel down so that he could pluck Julian up, and he held the little guy against his chest as he ruffled a hand through the pups fur.

"If they're full blood, it happens, though I'm not sure if Julian and Miah are," he said as he tipped his head to the side, "I think Wen said their grandfather is a wolf. So, maybe that's it. A hidden gene in the family pool, plus their father," he added before he handed Julian over to Darby. "Want to hold him, he won't bite."

"You should believe me," Sigmund nodded. "I would be very jealous, possessive. You're mine in a way that I'm not sure you can fully understand." He glanced over his shoulder and smiled a little at Casey before he grabbed the shampoo and lathered up his hair all quick-like. Turning around, he lathered up Casey too, massaging his fingers over his head.

"So Hunter was a little wolf like this?" He took the puppy, supporting him under the arms and holding him up where he could get a good look at him. He turned him back and forth with a scrutinizing eye. "Thank you for bringing back my controller," he told Julian politely.

Some people might not have enjoyed being spoken of as if they were a possession, but Casey very much liked it. He liked that Sigmund wanted him so much, and of course he knew that he was more to the wolf than just a thing.

"What if one day you wake up and you're sick of me?" Casey teased with a half grin as he tipped his head up so that Sigmund could lather up his hair.

"Yes, and no matter what you hear, he was a terror," Graham said fondly as he sat down on the edge of the bed again, "So was Austin," he added as he watched Darby eye Julian.

The little white pup barked as his tail wagged, and he wriggled back and forth, trying to get at Darby so he could lick his face some.

"I think he likes you."

"I wouldn't have woken up in the first place then." Because it was that unlikely that he would ever get sick of Casey. And if he ever did, he'd rather just not be around. Tugging Casey back into the stream of the water, he let the lather rinse away from the both of them. A little more washing, and when they were both clean, he shut off the water and grabbed a towel for Casey.

Darby wasn't so positive that he liked the pup back. He deftly avoided the face licks and kept squinting at him. "I suppose he's kind of cute." Cute had never really been Darby's style though. He set Julian down on the bed to watch him.

Casey took the towel and dried himself off before he slipped into a comfy pair of sweats and a t-shirt. He really didn't plan on doing much except writing some music and maybe practicing his violin if no one minded, and of course lounge with Sigmund.

"Well, I can assure you I will never get tired of you," he said after a moment, "You're perfect," he added with a faint smile.

"Just kind of?" Graham said as Julian rolled over onto his back, and Graham reached over to rub the little wolf's belly. "I like that he's all white. He'll have fun in the snow, that's for sure."

Tugging on some clothes himself, Sigmund tossed the towels into the hamper. "Julian is in with Graham and Darby," Sigmund noted as he went out into the hall. He could smell the puppy's location, and part of him wanted to go in there and see what they were all doing. It had less to do with Graham and more to do with Julian. Sigmund was very fond of the little one.

Darby laid down on the bed and propped his head up on his hand as he reached out to touch Julian's stomach too. His stomach was so warm and he had to smile a little. "Maybe a little more than just kind of."

Casey followed Sigmund out into the hall, and he paused to look at the door to the room where Graham and Darby were staying. It was open just a crack, and he could hear their voices faintly but he couldn't make out what was being said.

"I haven't seen what Jeremiah looks like yet, I wonder if he looks the same or different," Graham noted, his voice relaxed and soft. "You know, you've never asked me what you look like as a wolf," he told Darby as he looked up at him, "Aren't you curious?"

"He's different, a lot different. They're night and day," Sigmund said as he pressed his hand to the door, letting it swing open. "It's pretty cute, actually." He stepped inside with a renewed willingness to be friendly.

"I'm a little curious about what I look like as a wolf," Darby admitted. "I suspect that I'm all black." Darby looked up at Sigmund and Casey and offered Casey a knowing little smile. "Heard you having sex. Nice," he teased. He wanted to be friends with Casey, to be honest. He thought they had something in common, though he wasn't sure about the human aspect of it. But at least with Casey he didn't have to worry about the whole dominance thing and his place in the pack.

When Darby addressed him like that, his cheeks flushed a bright pink and he grinned sheepishly. Of course they'd been heard, and probably not just by Graham and Darby. If Casey realized that not only could they be heard, but felt, maybe even smelled by the pack? He probably would have died of embarrassment.

"You're purple, bright purple," Graham said seriously, with a completely straight face. Before the joke could go on though, Sigmund stepped into the room, and Graham glanced over at him. He didn't say anything in reply to Darby or Sigmund's words.

Darby was just gullible enough to believe that for a second. His expression flickered as he went from shocked to knowing and he scrunched up his face. "I am not." Then he tilted his head. "If I dyed my hair, would some of my fur be the same color?" He tugged at his hair, bringing a chunk of it down over his eyes as if to examine it. He wanted to know the mechanics of shifting.

Slipping his arm around Casey's waist, Sigmund liked hearing that this claim had been well heard and well staked on the boy. He hadn't done it to make Graham jealous, though it could have been mistaken for that. "Graham, you've talked to Hunter about the situation, I assume. How long will it take to get it straightened out?"

"No," Graham said quietly, amused by Darby's question, though when Sigmund started to speak the amusement easily and quickly left his face. "I'm not sure. I'm not psychic and neither is he, but if you want to talk to him about it, feel free," he added before he laid back on the bed and Julian moved to stand on his chest.

Casey didn't like the obvious hostility, and he glanced at Darby before he slipped a hand into Sigmund's. He was kind of hungry now, and he gave his lover's hand a little tug.

A lot of Sigmund wished the two of them could be friends. Having Graham around was stressful in ways he couldn't fully explain, but he'd missed him. He would never have been with Graham if he hadn't liked him a great deal. Glancing back and forth between Darby and Graham, Sigmund wanted to stay. But Casey's suggestion was a better idea in the long run. He left with the young man and headed down to the kitchen.

Darby watched him go. "Clearly one relationship can only stand so much douchery? Too much between the two of you. How did you even get together?"

Casey took a seat on one of the counters, hopping up to let his legs dangle over the edge while Sigmund prepared him something to eat. He didn't feel comfortable rummaging around in the pack's kitchen.

"I miss our place," he said quietly, and they'd only been at the main house again for a few hours. When he realized what he said, he blushed and bit down on his lower lip. "I mean your place," he corrected.

Once Casey and Sigmund were gone, Graham's attention flickered back to Darby as he ruffled a hand through Julian's fur. The pup growled playfully and his tail swished back and forth.

"Attraction," he said simply, though it was more than that, but he didn't know how to even begin to explain it.

"It's not my place without you anymore, so our place. Please keep calling it our place. It sounds so good." That certainly made Sigmund feel better about everything. Regardless of what was going on with the rest of his life, Casey was always a good thing and never had Sigmund been more thankful for that than right now. "You make everything better, you know that?"

Darby reached over and pushed Julian off of Graham's chest so that he could climb up on top of his lover. He stuck his tongue out at he little ball of fluff and then leaned down so he could kiss Graham on the nose. He did not like sharing his attention. "Sigmund is pretty hot, so I can't fault you there," he tested Graham's patience.

While Sigmund rummaged around in the fridge and spoke, Casey watched him with a soft smile. He hooked a hand around his boyfriend's wrist and tugged him over so that he could steal a kiss.

"I do? I'm glad, you do too," he said softly.

When Darby pushed him aside, the little pup growled and bit down on Dary's toe. Graham smiled in amusement as he let his hands settle at Darby's hips.

"You're attractive," he said, a brow arching up.

It could be strange, cooking for Casey. Sigmund was used to wolf proportions and the sandwich he was putting together for his lover was something that would satisfy a few humans. When he presented it to him, he realized just how big it was and smirked a little. "Don't worry, I'll help you eat it. You have no idea how much grocery money I save having a human mate." Mate. It sounded right. He knew it was right.

Darby let out an indignant shriek and wheeled on Julian with a little growl. "That's my toe! Mine!" He pulled his foot back and pinched the puppy's paw. It was a very light pinch, but he wasn't about to let a puppy dominate him in front of Graham.

When Sigmund handed him the sandwich, Casey arched a brow at the size of it.

"Good, because there's no way I can eat all of that by myself," he said before he took a bite. He chewed slowly, a smile creeping across his face at the word mate.

When Darby growled at him and pinched his paw, Julian jumped back and let out a yelp. It didn't hurt, but he knew how to play his cards, and when he heard Sullivan in the hallway he hopped off the bed and skittered out of the room as he gave Darby a look that said he was telling on him. Graham snickered and pinched Darby in the side.

"Are you really trying to assert dominance over a puppy that weighs like, ten pounds?"

"That's a big word to be using on you," Sigmund admitted. He knew it fit, bit he worried that Casey didn't fully understand the kin of commitment he meant by it. Be smiled though and passed it off. There was food to be had and Casey was smiling.

Darby scowled after the pup. "I'm not going to let a baby push me around. Everyone else does, but a puppy is where I draw the line." He groaned when he smelled Sullivan. "He's going to eat me alive if I run into him again."

"Is it?" Casey asked softly in between chews before he offered Sigmund a bite of the massively sized sandwich. "I like it," he added after a moment. "I like that you want to be with me and no one else, always. That's exactly how I feel about you." And he meant it, more than anything he'd ever meant.

"He's a dominant one," Graham agreed, and it made him wonder how Sullivan and Austin would fair. Would they turn out like him and Sigmund? Then again, they had Robin in the mix. He had no idea how that really worked out. "Julie's probably telling on you, or trying to. He wants Sully to come in here and eat you," he teased.

Sigmund took a bite of the sandwich and he really had to congratulate himself on how good it was. But it could not distract him from the fact that Casey was saying some fantastic things to him right now. After he swallowed, he leaned over and kissed Casey on the chin. "You know forever is a long time with me. Werewolves live quite awhile. I might seem old, but I got a long time left. Just so you know."

Sullivan didn't knock, he just walked into the room, holding Julian. "One of these two?" He asked the pup and sent him down so he could point out the culprit. He stood there like an enforcer, hands on his hips.

"I'm glad forever is a long time with you," Casey told Sigmund as he leaned in to steal a soft kiss, then took a bite of his sandwich again. "And you don't seem old to me, not at all. You're too sexy to be old."

Graham's head tipped back when Sullivan came into the room, and he arched a brow with a faint and amused smirk. He'd always been fond of Sullivan, maybe because in a lot of ways Sullivan reminded him of himself when he was the younger wolf's age.

Once Julian was settled on his feet, he trotted over to the bed and hopped up on it to sit next to Darby and Graham, but he was completely focused on Graham and his tail wasn't swishing back and forth, either.

Sigmund squinted. "So old can't be sexy in and of itself?" He was teasing, but he was trying to keep a straight face, as if he'd been offended by the suggestion that Sigmund was sexy despite his age.

Sullivan had always looked up to Graham, liking that he didn't take shit from anyone. When he was younger, he'd tried his hand at dominating him and of course, had failed. But it was important to try and he wouldn't back down if Graham felt like protecting Darby. "That one? Darby, is it? You're picking on a puppy? What the hell, dude? Put him in his place, but don't fucking hurt him. He was limping." Sullivan stepped closer, having believed Julian's little act whole heartedly.

"You are sexy in and of itself, age doesn't play a part in it. It's just you," Casey said as he put the sandwich aside and let his arms loop around Sigmund's shoulders, and he leaned in to brush a kiss against the older man's cheek.

Julian growled, feeling tough thanks to Sullivan's support. Graham reached out and ruffled his hand through the pup's soft, white fur.

"He's playing you, Sullivan, Darby barely even pinched him," he said with a grin, "He hopped off of the bed just fine and skittered out of here without a limp."

"Oh sure, oh sure," he laughed. When they were done with the sandwich, Sigmund grabbed himself a couple of bags of chips to supplement and led them to the tv room. Sigmund's laptop was in there. "I need to send off this article before too long. It's so distracting here," he laughed. "Fortunately for me, I'm the best obit writer they have so they can't possibly fire me."

Looking back and forth between all of them, he narrowed his eyes. Darby was busy glaring at Julian, but when he noticed Sullivan watching him so closely, he averted his eyes and let out a disgruntled sigh.

"Julian," Sullivan frowned down at the little one. "Did you lie to me?" He reached down to pick him up by the scruff of his neck gently and turned him around so he could look at him face to face. "I'm not a weapon to be used against innocents. You're going to have to start fighting your own battles pretty soon, you hear?"

Casey grabbed a coke out of the fridge and opened it up to take a sip of it as he followed after Sigmund. He settled down on the couch and curled up after he'd set his drink down, and he closed his eyes with a yawn.

"I might fall asleep," he said softly. "You always wear me out."

Graham watched as Sullivan plucked Julian up with careful ease. The pup went limp, front paws held out in front of himself awkwardly as he stared at Sullivan. He let out a whimper and did his very best to look as pathetic as possible.

"He's too cute for his own good," Graham said with an amused grin.

"That sounds perfect, actually. I love listening to you sleep as background. It helps me relax." He opened his laptop and started clacking away peacefully, focusing on happy this little scene was making him.

"He's too cute for everyone's good," Sullivan kept on frowning. Wagging his free finger in Julian's face, he addressed him very seriously. "I'm going to teach you how to fight. It's about time you learned. You can shift like a wolf, you can fight like one." Besides, when the boys started school, Sullivan would not have them getting bullied. They'd be the bullies if he could help it.

When Sullivan packed Julian out of the room, Darby's whole body relaxed. "If he had mauled me, you wouldn't have done anything, would you have. Except maybe laughed."
