I get it, you're on a life thing, you've got classes and weird hijinks going down on your personal life sidelines. So the whole missing the last three episodes deal? Totally understandable.

I mean, it sucks, because we're probably all half-dead - that so can go both ways in terms of meaning, right - and there's the whole villain resurrection issue that you've spoiled yourself all the way to Hell on despite your better judgment, by which I mean why were you checking tumblr, dude, you know better than that, you've only got yourself to blame—

But it's cool. Don't let it get you down.

...Ooooor you could let it bother you all day for the last few days, why not. It's not like the season finale's next week, right? Penultimate episode of the season just aired, there's probably a ton of gut-wrenching "feels" again. You're so missing out on everything and wow, awesome, now you're listening to me? Really?

You know, sometimes it's like you're Scott. I am not comforted by this thought.

Muns tend to listen at the last second. Or when its too late, from what I've learned.

It'd probably be for the best if your mun takes it slow with those last three episodes. It's a lot to take in, from what my mun says, at least.

Yeah, it's been extremely alarming how much yelling's been going on in the usual internet hangouts this past three weeks. It wasn't this bad early on in the season, what the hell, is anyone going to survive this show for certain other than Scott?

—Don't answer that. Not honestly. I fully encourage lying on that one.

I'll... actually have to agree with you on that part. Things have gotten a lot more extreme this time around.

But, let your mun savor the ignorance for a while.

Ignorance is painful, though, and it'd be just my luck if my player gets the time to watch right before the season finale airs. Wanna bet on my horrible feeling that it's going to be actual case?

...Wait, you're not dead, are you?

No. I'm not dead.

[quirks a brow though]

You seem to be pretty concerned. Unless you were asking in place of your mun.

What, I can't ask? Do you realize how unfair that is? How many questions of yours have I answered? How many of mine have you answered?

[Granted, Stiles is all questions half the time, but that's no excuse for you.]

Look, usually when something's trying to kill you, that something ends up trying to kill everyone else around you along the way — there's reason to be concerned. You have to have noticed that too.

[Stiles had a good point there. Might as well give him some slack this time around.] Alright, alright, I get it.

It's just that, there's not much I can say without giving something away.

[And his mun is being strict with him about spoilers.]

We could do it Twenty Questions style? Keep it yes-or-no? That works loads of times on TV.

[ The internet and TV are valid sources of information and no one can tell him otherwise.

Deep breaths, though. You still haven't gotten rid of the eyebrow thing you always do, Derek Hale, and it's still intimidating a whole season later. ]

I mean, if that's cool with you. Because I'm down with not getting answers if that means having a painless conversation. —How is it even a thing in my life that I have to qualify conversations, anyway?

[He could list so many things that were wrong with that first statement, but c'mon. It was Stiles he was talking to here.]

Painless conversation works for me. If it's possible that is.

[Sure, the two of them talked, but only when it dealt with Scott, the Argents, Peter, the Kanima... anything that cause their paths to cross. Other than that? Not so much. Derek was more concerned about his pack after all.]

[ Wow, Derek. After taking great pains not to shed light on that particularly bad phrasing, you just had to shove it right back to focus, didn't you. It's like you hate me. ]

Okay. Awesome. Scott isn't dying, obviously, so... Hm. Mama Argent's shoulder is gonna be an issue, isn't it?

Just yes or no. Shake an eyebrow if it's somewhere in between.

[ Hey look no steering wheels! ]

[JUST GIVES HIM A DRY STARE, and slumps his shoulders. Oh Stiles why. WHY.]

Obviously it would be.

[ BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT and you and Scott kind of suck in different ways when it comes to addressing important things. At least Scott starts his difference with the letter A. Stiles is on to you both. ]

Right. So. Are the werebabies safe? Relative terms. Safe can be synonymous with marginally alive, I'm not going to be picky.

[Okay he has to stop you there Stiles.]

...Werebabies? Seriously?

They've been werewolves for all of like three months? Two? Anything that age is a baby. You're the proud dad of a litter and Scott's your two-year-old wolf-cousin.

Dude, it makes sense!

[He blinks a few times and... yeah sure, that makes sense, Derek shakes his head to get back to reality.

He purses his lips, recalling the question again.]

...Does the eyebrow-shake thing still qualify as an answer for this one?

[ This is the best not-friendship, right? Totally the bestest. ]

...I'll take that as a maybe. Damn it.

So. Jackson.

There's too much to say about him, currently. My mun refuses to let me say anything past that.

[ All the yelling has been warranted, then. That's not good at all. ]

Did anyone die?

[He frowns a little.]

Yes.

[ And just like that, all his questions narrow down to not even half. It leaves him with only a handful, and they're the ones he can't ask.

Is it my dad?

Is it Lydia?

Is it me?

There's one he could ask, though. Feel free to do what you need. Feel free not to answer. ]

Did Peter coming back have something to do with it?

[He grows a little uncomfortable, but shakes his head none the less.]

No.

[ Oh, hah. Nervous relief is a thing, right? Short-lived thing because now there's a devil out there that he doesn't know, maybe literally, and it's not like he's already screwed something up already and— ]

But you'll be okay, right? You'll survive.

[ It's a little cruel, but that's something you're good at. ]

[Derek offers the smallest hint of a weak smile, but it fades as soon as it appears. The reassurance was welcomed, but who knows what could happen in just one episode.]

I'm pretty sure I will, personally. But, we'll see in the season finale.

[ This is their lives now. ]

You know what this is reminding me of?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, back when it was good. I need to punch a writer or something.
