voice to the test

[emerges]

You know, I'm not really one to talk about bad decisions, but this isn't exactly giving off good idea vibes.

Don't get me wrong. I mean, I'm a lot better than some of the people you've got up here. [ shrugs because you know, fact. ] Especially a certain little lizard.

Just don't blame me when you start complaining about priorities. I'll be here trying to find something entertaining to do.

[wolfteen]

[ oh god so suspicious. ] What kind of entertaining?

[emerges]

[ this is not a suspicious smirk

or is it ]

Well, that's for me to know and you to find out, isn't it?

[wolfteen]

Or, you could just tell me now so I don't have to follow you around until I work it out like always. See how that saves time?

[emerges]

Wow, Scott. I'm flattered, but I just don't think it's going to work out that easily for you this time.

[wolfteen]

Yeah? Why is that?

[emerges]

[ She's just toying with him. Mostly toying with him anyways because Scott McTeenWolf why must you assume she's up to something? She's totally innocent. Yep. ]

Because I'm still not going to tell you no matter how much you pout.

[wolfteen]

[ He's not convinced she even knows what that word means. ]

Who says I'm gonna pout? I'm not gonna pout. Maybe I'm going to threaten you. That'll be terrifying. You should stop now before it gets that far.

[emerges]

You're going to threaten me? Don't make me laugh.

[ has he seen himself? he's not quite as terrifying as he'd like to believe ]

[lahey]

Kind of makes a guy wonder who else you're hanging out with, over there.

[ He's honestly curious. And also the tiniest bit unhappy about it. ]

[emerges]

[ Not feeling left out are you, Isaac? ]

I guess you could call it an interesting bunch. It's more of a crowd with how many others are up here.

[lahey]

[ Would it be worth judging if he says he does? Not always, but everyone's got someone lately. ]

I thought you liked crowds. Well, now. Not so much before, right?

[emerges]

[ A little. She'd feel bad though. And hey, not everyone. Just look at Derek. Unless we're counting Uncle Petey in the mix. ]

Only crowds that come with attention. [ because that's all that she ended up getting once she was bit. Something she'd so desperately tried to avoid before -- it was funny, in a way, when everyone turned to look at her and there was neither pity nor ridicule.

She shakes her head by way of answering because she'd almost forgotten what it was like to get that negative attention. ] The good kind anyways.

[lahey]

[ Uncle Creepy McBadtouch counts, if you ask Isaac. The guy came back just to seemingly sass his nephew on his beta choices, how mean is that? ]

Both guys and girls? [ He noticed. He'd be literally blind in all five senses not to. ] Not that I'm judging. I mean, that's pretty cool.

[emerges]

[ She's just glad she hasn't had the chance to run into him yet. It's that seemingly part that she's heard about and well, that can't be good.

Probably smirking the biggest smirk ever. She's trying to hold back from laughing too, just a little. ] Well, when you put it that way. Does it really matter who it comes from? [ Yeah, she'd taken note too. ]

[lahey]

Not really? I don't know, what does Boyd think.

[ Pointed not-question may be slightly pointed, because Isaac can be a tiny little snit-fit when he's in a mood.

Anyway, he has suspicions he doesn't need wolf senses for. ]

[emerges]

[ Don't you know, Isaac? When you spend enough time with someone (you know not going to school or anything), you can start picking up on the half-moods and the things that come from them.

But she isn't apologetic about it. So how to say sorry without saying sorry? She'll just settle for a half-shrug instead. ]

You should probably ask him. If he turns up around here somewhere.

[puppysitting]

There has to be a reason why they picked you in the first place. And it might not be a bad one, necessarily.

[Cause he picked you for a reason, Erica. And yet, he is still wary about what choices you've made with Boyd.]

[emerges]

And why would it be such a good one?

[ Oh, hi Derek. She knows the choices that she made -- well, they didn't work out so well. Normal teenagers get to make mistakes that don't nearly get them hunted down. But hearing him say something almost positive? it's a weird feeling, to feel something akin to regret at leaving, but that's what she thinks it might be. ]

[puppysitting]

Maybe they saw potential in you. I know I did. You're capable of a lot of things.

[She made her choice, and Derek wouldn't force her or Boyd to stay, as much as he wanted them to. They could make their own choices. That's what teenagers learned to do anyways, regardless of being a werewolf, human, and everything else in between.]

[emerges]

[ There's a smile that blooms on her face, a mixture of the smirk she'd learned to adopt when she'd become a part of his pack (still was, a small part of her hoped) and a softer smile that one might give upon learning that a parent is proud of them. Not that Derek was anything like her parents, but being a part of the pack had sort of become like being a part of the family. ]

I wish I was capable of getting her to listen to me. But I think she's more hopeless than anything in this matter.

[puppysitting]

[If she was willing to come back on her own, he'd be more than willing to welcome her back into the pack. The only thing he'd be wary of is having her, or even the others, too close to Peter. He's still on the fence about his uncle.]

Mine is the same way. Sadly, there's not much anyone can do about it. They control the strings in this situation. You just have to expect the unexpected and roll with the punches with these muns.

[emerges]

[ She's a little unsure about her own fate or else, she would have let him know already. After all, why miss meeting the crazy family uncle? What else are reunions for? ]

It seems a little stupid that we can't do anything at all. I mean, she's only human. Can't I just make her listen to me?

[puppysitting]

[Derek shrugs a little, stuffing his hands in his leather jacket pockets, eyebrows raised.]

And how would you make her listen to you? I'm sure you don't want to make your own mun mad. She may throw you into a terrible situation as punishment, and she would turn a blind eye to your protests.

Muns are more powerful than you think they are.

[gymnast]

Something tells me your idea of "entertaining" probably isn't the same as your mun's.

[emerges]

[ Oh. oh, she was not expecting to see you here. Because the last time she saw Allison? She was shooting arrows right at her. So don't mind if she shrinks back a bit and gives a glare. ]

Still probably better than yours.
