Tobias Fangor

"So now that the journey's over mind telling us how you managed to acquire such a well-tamed hawk?" "What hawk? Oh, this is my buddy, he's a shapeshifter who just really likes being a hawk. It's not like he's trying to hide that fact and you guys never asked so I assumed you all knew that."

The thing that will always get me about Tobias being stuck in his morph is that he just disappeared one day and literally no one cared. Not a single teacher has asked Jake or Marco if they've seen him around. His family does not search for him. Neither the police or social services are called. The rest of the group doesn't see his face on the back of milk cartons during lunch. He vanished and it was like he never existed.

have you heard of birds? kind of gay… kind of… cool?

I love that swans are treated as beautiful graceful creatures and associated with true love in multiple cultures and sets of mythology. And they behave and sound like actual demons.

Swans have discovered ding-dong ditching…

Imagine someone knocking on your door and you open it and a swan begins mauling you.

Rachel should've acquired a swan.
