[Stacia huffs dramatically, tossing her hair over her shoulder.]
Here I am trying to be respectful of other people's time and all I get in return is sass!
[She plops down gracelessly next to him, sobering out of her flounce.]
What can I say, I'm a dedicated social creature and I like to head off potential problems before they come to a head. On that note, I wanted to give you some tips when it comes to talking with Kenzie.
[She shakes her head, blowing air out in something that's half-sigh, half-calming exhalation.]
She's not upset with you, I'm not here on the gossip train or anything. I genuinely just want to offer some advice, since I've seen the two of you butting heads a few times and I really don't want it to be a problem. And since it doesn't seem like you're trying to piss her off, I figured context would help.
[She kicks up her feet and chews her lip in thought. As though she hasn't already considered how to word this.]
The short version is, unless you have actual calm-your-shit powers, you can't calm down a pissed off werewolf. It's genuinely impossible. The very calmest and gentlest of us is mere inches from violence at all times, and Kenzie is by far not one of our calmest and gentlest. Which means that when she's pissed, the best thing you can do is say "let's talk about this later" and loop me in. Unless you really want eight-plus feet of furious wolf-monster to try and rip your face off, or rip the faces off of everyone else around her.

[ He shits to the side on the couch to make room and to better face her. ]
Oh? I’m all ears, especially if someone’s upset with me. I did tell her I was sorry for being so flip when she arrived.

[Stacia laughs.]
Well, that explains a lot.
