Fenian Weredog

In my recent travels I was able to see an old friend, Sean, an Irish Wolf Hound by breed, weredog by species, Irish by God. Sean has an interesting past, and present.

Sean came over to America in 1856 in the flood of Irish that came over then. He fought through the entire Civil War. That is where we met, actually. After the war he was part of the Fenian invasion which in 1866 tried to provoke a popular uprising against the British in Canada. They were a bunch of Irish Civil War veterans, still drunk with the glory of that war and bored and eager to start another. Add to all that Irish anger and desire for a free and unified Ireland and it nows seems amazing to me that there were not thousands more involved in that ill-fated invasion.

A force of 1,000 Fenians attacked across the US-Canadian border and seized the town of St. Armand. They were veterans of war but did not have the numbers or the skills to achieve their goals. Civil War battles involved many thousands of troops hurling themselves at each other and artillery and cavalry and all the rest. What the Fenians needed to conduct was an unconventional warfare campaign. But none of them knew of that, had an inkling of those skills. I do now, but did not then, and did not until the following century, the one just passed, during my 2 stints in Army Special Forces, who are all about UW, born and bred for it.

Anyway, Sean and all the Fenians were put down and run off quickly by Canadian troops. Sean went west, like many of us.

I went to see him about funding for some projects. He is working now in finance, and has access to creative financing. But he has ben having problems at work. The rest of the suits with whom he works somehow got the idea that he is gay. He isn't. But in some way he gave the wrong impression, and he does not know how to fix it.

Weredogs, like dogs, and all canines, do not get the whole homophobia thing. Hell, I love to lick my balls, in dog form of course. I can't reach in human form. And don't even get me going on leg humping. True, usually dogs do that as a show of dominance. But not always.

Anyway, many packs depend on Sean and his position in finance. He is early in his current human phase and cannot lose this position. But he is not certain how to fix the situation. So I put him in touch with a werewolf I know who is very adept at figuring out and fixing tangled human webs. That was five months ago. Talked to him today. She and he are living together and shedding allot of fur together.

I don't know what to think of this trend which I see growing and spreading. It worries me. But I can hardly criticize, due to Dionna.

Your friend might hear this a lot, but honestly, the best thing to do is to clearly state he's not gay when he hears it, and if they persist then to ignore them. They aren't worth his attention in personal matters if they can't respect his word.

He ignored it for a while. It didn't go away. What led to it was jealousy, theirs in regards to his success within the firm, and also that he is a rather fit dog. Lots of ego in broker pits and anything can set them off. Also, he made a casual remark about licking ball one day. He wasn't kidding, but meant his own, in dog form. They did not know that. The irony is that weredogs cannot lick their balls in human form. No one can. Human spine's not made that way. But he thinks that started it.

I told him just to go get some rep, shag some gals form the office with big mouths, who will blab about it. But he cannot do that, given that he is living with a female and does not currently desire other females.
