A hung over Werewolf's morning experience.
It was just another sunny mid afternoon as Lyconus woke up with a very loud groan. Like all the other Lycans, he too lived down in New York's sewers. Only it was very hard for any human to find them and that's how they liked it. He had been out the night before on a drunken benge cause he had been a little bored hanging around down in the sewers. Course like every other time he woke up with a very painful hang over and he always regretted it a little. Upon rare occasions, Lyconus would wake up to a very pretty woman sleeping next to him and her arm draped over his chest. Course every time this happened it always led to very awkward conversations for him and his 'Lady of the Night'. So he slowly turned his head so as not to aggravate his pounding head ache and breathed a sigh of relief that there was no girl next to him. Although that slightly made him wince in pain. As he sat up with more groaning, he started to pray to all the Holy Deity's out there that Naomi wouldn't come in and annoy him like she was fond of doing. Even though he loathed to admit it, he was rather fond of her even though she rather would prefer to look up to Oriqui, who also had a habit of annoying Lyconus. Although her way was constantly harp on him about nearly every thing he did.

Unfortunately for Lyconus, sure enough Naomi barged into the room causing the door to slam into the wall and making Lyconus groan very loudly. Oh God.. please not now.. make her go away! His pleading would go unheard as Naomi looked at him and gave him her best smile. “Hi Uncle Lyco! I have a special song just for you!”

He groaned again as she started her so called special song. “May I die a peaceful death someday.” He muttered to himself.

“Oh for he's a jolly good old man! He fights, he gets drunk, and gets into lots of trouble! How he ever gets through life with out me or Auntie Oriqui I'll never know! I'm glad he found me and took me in! Although it was Aunt Oriqui that did so! Secretly Uncle Lyco loves me for what I do, but he just doesn't want to admit it! Oh for he's a jolly good old man! He loves to eat a lot, and he fights with Oriqui a lot, but hey its his fault for not listening to a woman who knows better! He also needs to lighten up, much like the Elders need too but you won't hear me saying that too often! Much good for my health that way, hey! Oh for he's a jolly good old man! When he's in a fight, he's surely to never let you down! But trust him to make you a sandwich and its surely to go down his own throat! He loves to get drunk and he also loves to drink lots of tea when he gets his hands on it! Even though it makes him want to pee a lot! Oh but he's a jolly good old man and we're glad to have him here!”

By the time she was done, Lyconus had laid back down again and buried his head under neath his pillow and was screaming very loudly. Naomi found it to be incredibly funny, so she started giggling madly at the sight of it. Standing at the door way was Oriqui who was struggling not to laugh but had a very happy smile on her face. “What have I done to deserve this!? I ask this of the Gods!” That remark made her loose her inner battle and she began to laugh.

All in all, it was just another day for everyone down in the sewers. And would just be another day of embarrassment for Lyconus when Naomi continued to sing her song, only with a few changes to some of her lyrics. It was said that even some of the more colder Elders could be heard laughing to the point of having tears coming down their face.
