Alek takes a deep breath before he answers.

"My whole life, really." It's not a lie. Alek doesn't remember much else. "We moved from England when I was too young to remember anything that happened before Chicago. We chose somewhere on the outskirts of town for ... obvious reasons."

He nods a bit. "We lived on a nature preserve when I was a kid. Wolves like wide open spaces." He leaves it at that, because he doesn't really know how much Cora has told him regarding their family and what happened to them, but he could at least skirt around it with harmless details. "I'd rather live out in the woods than anywhere else."

"... Me too."

Could it be? Could Derek and Alek have something in common besides Cora? The world might be in for it now.

"It's not that I'm claustrophobic, but the more closed the space, the less... right I feel. With the woods out back, we can shift whenever we want and roam for hours." It helps clear his head. "You're free to use the space, too."

If he'd like.

Derek's still getting used to his new wolf form, that he didn't get by way of the rift. As much as he likes to think that he's always been one to want to run in the woods, it's definitely increased since gained the ability to sport fur and a tail. Having some wide open space to run around in is definitely something he won't take for granted.

"Thank you."
