LANA RILEY TUCKER

if you want to play it like a game
well, come on, come on, let's play
cause I'd rather waste my life pretending
than have to forget you for one whole minute
bad cop:
for the record - state your name and any aliases you go by.
“My name is Lana Riley Tucker. I just go by Lana, but some of my friends used to call me Riley or Ri.”
state your age. [pauses] your real age, smartass.
“I’m twenty-two, but when I was bitten, I was nineteen. It’s not really a big difference, but… Anyway, yeah, I’m still a pup in werewolf years.”
state your occupation or what you consider it to be.
“I work for Silas Metzger. Whatever he wants me to do, I’ll do to further his cause. I also work as a bartender on the side.”
good cop:
so what was it like growing up with a family like yours?
“Nothing spectacular. We were a middle class family living in Tennessee. My childhood was simple – eat, sleep, play. Whatever. I have an older brother, but we’re not particularly close. I think he’s living somewhere in New York, now. My parents and I had a normal relationship; I listened to them mostly, only rebelling slightly when I hit my teenage years. I was given pretty much free reign, anyway, so it didn’t matter too much.
I went to regular public schools. High school was a breeze, and then I went to a local college for about a year. That was when I was turned. I don’t have any special story about it. I just remember walking home one night from a party by myself – yeah, I know, never a smart move – and the next thing I remember, I was in the hospital. So, right after this was when all the goodie-goodies came out and told everyone about the supernatural. And that was when my rights were suddenly stripped away. I had just become a werewolf, and the next thing I knew, I couldn’t go to college anymore because I was a ‘menace to society.’ Okay, yeah, the change is hard – I still struggle with it – but I wasn’t going to attack anyone. I have better control over my emotions than that… Mostly.
Then, I couldn’t have a job. And the offenses just kept coming. It wasn’t until a year after my attack that I heard about Metzger’s movement, and I immediately dropped everything to go find him. And ever since early 2008, I’ve been working with him. If you humans are willing to take away our rights, I’m perfectly content taking away all of yours.”
thank you for offering up that information. so share with me something personal about you.
“Okay, so who actually want to answer this question? Ugh, whatever. I’m in good control of my emotions, I always have been, but ever since being bitten, I’ve worked even harder on it. I have a tough exterior… I really don’t let anyone get close to me, but I have a soft spot for those who have managed to penetrate that wall. I don’t consciously know when someone has done it… It just kind of happens. But it only happens rarely, and after it does, I will always be loyal to that person.
I can be harsh, and I always speak my mind… No matter what. So, yeah, I suppose the nice way to put that is… There isn’t really one, is there? I’m blunt, how about that? Oh, and I’ll make you listen to me, even if you don’t want to. That tends to make me enemies. In high school, I was only saved because I’m an attractive blonde.
I’m rather adventurous. I always used to enjoy camping, vacations, and so on. Right after the initial shock of becoming a werewolf, and the obligatory emoing, I realized that this is just a new kind of adventure. And even though I was limited by human laws for awhile, everything else has really just opened up. It’s so much better this way. I’m better this way.”
bad cop:
so what fancy things can you do? be specific, punk.
“Right. Well, since I’m still a pup, my powers are limited. I have increased speed, strength, stamina, senses… Oh, yeah, and I can turn into a giant wolf – forcibly once a month. By choice… Well, I’m working on that.”
i bet you think you’re the best, huh? better than everyone else.
“I certainly enjoy being a werewolf, yes. And yes, I believe vampires and werewolves are better than humans. We’re like them, but improved. I do like werewolves better than vampires, though… It’s a species thing.”
good cop:
so what are your likes and dislikes?
“[sighs] These questions are getting annoying… Oh, yeah, there’s a dislike for you. Alright, fine, I’m here; I’ll answer. I like exploring and travelling… Going places I’ve never been before. I like relaxing in front of the television, as long as something good is on, which is rare. I like being in good shape, which isn’t hard now that Oh, and I like shopping, but don’t tell anyone that. I despise feeling weak, luckily that doesn’t happen very often anymore. I also don’t like a bad hair day… or drugs. That good enough for you?”
i’m wondering – do you have any distinguishing features?
“I have the scar whoever bit me left. It’s a bite mark on my left side. Besides that, no, not really. I’m five foot eight, so that means I’m taller than the average woman… Oh, and I can turn into a giant wolf.”
so, are you seeing anyone special? or have anyone in mind?
“Kind of. I haven’t had much experience with relationships, and nor do I really want it. It just seems to cause too many problems, too many emotions… I’m no virgin, though. I’m just not one of those chicks that needs emotions to have sex.”
are you sure you don’t want some coffee, lana?
“No. I don’t drink coffee, thanks.”
