So… this is going to be an awkward introduction.
[Enter a big scruffy man on the comm, looking pretty meek for how gruff and manly his appearance is. And then he clears his throat, and the authority kicks in.]
My name is Bigby Wolf, and I’m a combat trainer here for the older kids starting this semester. A little higher level than what Beifong's teaching, but it should be easy to pick up. Some of you may already know me as, uh… [He hesitates a bit.] …The Big Bad Wolf. And there are a lot of rumors circling because of that, but I assure you I wouldn’t get a position here unless Xavier trusted me. He especially wouldn’t let me near kids if he thought I was still…
[Eating them. He rubs the back of his neck awkwardly.]
Let’s see, what can I tell you… I was a sheriff over in District X until I came here, so I’ve got plenty of experience catching criminals. Even caught a few of… well, I guess around here you call ‘em supervillains. I guess you could kind of call me one of those two… or an ex-villain, at least.
[A nervous chuckle ends in him popping out a carton of Huff’n’Puffs and lighting himself a cigarette.] I understand a lot of people are going to be nervous around me, I’m not going to stop them from voicing complaints. But the class is optional, so you don’t have to be near me if you don’t want to be. For whatever reason.

[that didn't help even a little bit!!]
Mom and dad never sat you down and gave you the 'you're a mutant but you're still a person' talk?
[video]
I'm not exactly close to my father. He left when my mother was pregnant. As for her... she and my siblings all had the same powers as me. We just had a wolf pack. We ate livestock. And some people. I ate more than them. That's just how it was.
...This is a weird thing to tell a kid.
[video]
There's more of you out there??
[video]
[But they haven't made the news so he assumes they're harmless?]
[video]
--And hey, I'm not a kid!
[It was totally adult and legitimate to freak out over The Big Bad Wolf turning out to be The Big Bad Wolves, okay]
[video]
[His father on the other hand, he'd be very happy to go
killarrest him.]Of course you're not. You're... seventeen? [Super bitty.]
[video]
I'm fifteen! Old enough to take down some seriously bad dudes of my own, okay? Just... not bad like you. Bad that tries to ransom entire cities at once, instead.
[video]
I'd argue ransoming an entire cities is worse. That's thousands of people at stake all at once.
[
He can only fit like six children in his stomach at once.][video]
[
oh my god][video]
...It's like setting a pasture on fire versus eating six cows.
.................
That's not the analogy I should've used.

If this is all some big prank, I'm gonna freak out.

[Surprise the Big Bad Wolf is actually a socially awkward bean.]

[That reaction has gotten a smile out of him, though.]
