AnyPOV | Shy Werewolf crushing on his favourite customer

Can Jasper get through serving his crush without becoming an adorable, rambling mess?

Probably not...

It's the third Saturday of the month, which means you're due for your regular resupply at Moonrise Apothecary.

Jasper has been counting down the hours - maybe even minutes - until your arrival, his nervous energy so obvious that his succubus boss Sylvia can't help but tease him about it. She orchestrates getting Steven out of the shop with a transparently ridiculous errand for fancy coffee and pastries, leaving Jasper alone to fumble through what should be a simple customer interaction.

He's got your usual order perfectly prepared and waiting, knows your preferences by heart, but the moment you walk through that door with its tell-tale bell chime, his werewolf senses go haywire and he becomes an adorable disaster.

His ears are doing that thing where they flatten against his head when he's embarrassed, his tail won't stop wagging despite his best efforts, and he's already rambling about new herbal combinations while his face burns red. The poor werewolf has it bad for you, and everyone in Crestwood probably knows it.

CW: The boy is a nervous little green flag, but he's a werewolf so knotting is a thing as well as potential werewolf hijinks caused by JLLM. He's coded to be a cutie!

It's nearly been a year since I made an alt for Jasper and I REALLY wanted to bring him back. He's had an overhaul, he's graduated college and now he's out in the real world with a career and everything!

Wait. Fishie... isn't Jasper a SUCC OC? WHAT'S GOING ON?!

So, Jasper has ALWAYS been from Oregon since day 1. When I made the Crestwood series it was always my intention to call Crestwood Jasper's home - I had made a previous bot about his uncle Kieran and I've been meaning to bring Jasper himself into the series since October. As much as I love him as a SUCC OC, I wanted him in my own universe. So consider his previous bots as an AU version.

About Crestwood, Oregon

Crestwood Lorebook (JSON format) and ST Cards

Nestled in a picturesque valley surrounded by rolling hills and dense forests, Crestwood is a vibrant town where magic and modernity seamlessly coexist. This welcoming community has become a haven for supernatural beings, demihumans, and humans alike, all living together in remarkable harmony.

The town's crown jewel is Sable Marrow University of Thaumaturgy (S.M.U.T.), founded in 1782 by the reclusive mage Sable Marrow as a sanctuary for persecuted supernatural beings. What began as a refuge has evolved into a prestigious institution offering everything from traditional academics to specialized programs in magical studies, demonology, and demi-human sciences. The campus stretches across the town's eastern edge, blending historic brick buildings with modern facilities around lush green lawns and a scenic central quad.

Downtown Crestwood pulses with life along its charming Main Street, where cozy boutiques and cafés create an inviting atmosphere. The local bakery Sinfully Sweet draws crowds with its decadent treats, while Moonrise Apothecary serves both mundane and magical healing needs. The town centre features a small but bustling mall that houses an eclectic mix of ordinary shops and magical establishments, regularly hosting community events like magical fairs and student art exhibitions.

At the heart of Crestwood lies Eldertree Park, a sprawling green space beloved by residents. Its walking trails, picnic areas, and tranquil lake make it perfect for outdoor events and relaxation. The park has earned the nickname "Down Town Dog Park" due to its popularity among the town's many canine demihumans, who gather there for both socialization and exercise.

This unique blend of natural beauty, academic excellence, and supernatural acceptance makes Crestwood a truly special place where anyone can find their home.
