here castmates, c'mere casties.

[studmuffin]

Hey, I'm just saying. Can you kick up the search a notch? Put in a few extra Munly hours. Because this is like a hundred times worse than when Scott fell out of a tree and I couldn't talk to him for a week. A week. It's been what-? Almost two months and no bestie. I'm pretty much going out of my freaking mind here. There is legitimate cause for madness and loss of higher function.

It's Fall, it's candy season. I need Scott.

[ Sigh. ] I mean, who's going to fit into the Wolfman costume now?

i have an ocd about layouts + stuff. i really need to get around to fixing laura's

[laurahale]

[Get ready for some non-canon bullshit about dorky!Derek.] Well, I remember there was this one time where a girl from his maths class suggested that they hang out sometime. She was pretty and that was kind of obvious because of the way that Derek's mouth was practically open for the duration of the conversation. I think he liked her, but his nerves got the best of him and he told her that he couldn't go out because he had to go home to study with his sister.

[She chuckles softly.] It was actually kind of sweet.

have you read the teen wolf book? BECAUSE THE LAURA FLASHBACKS. /chinhands

[studmuffin]

[ He needs you around always Laura, because this is the best thing he's ever heard. ]

He chickened out of a date? God.

nope. /sob - i need to buy a copy. my laura is pretty much making shit up as i go along

[laurahale]

Or maybe he didn't back out. Maybe he just genuinely preferred family. [Now that's a nice thought.]

You're spot on with her. Derek is like, I CAN'T I HAVE TO MEET LAURA AT THE BEACONBURGER.

[studmuffin]

Yeah.

[ Awkward. ] That sounds about right with Derek.

omg. you'll have to give me the skinny in a message until i can get the book.

[laurahale]

Sorry. [She doesn't mean to blab so much, but she just really adores Derek. He's her little brother and her best friend and she can't imagine how he must have felt after she was killed.]

It's just...family is important. Not a lot of people understand that these days.

I will!

[studmuffin]

Oh hey, no, it's all right. I do that about my dad all the time. I just start talking and people are like, god Stiles, do you ever shut up? And it's really kind of awkward, but I get it?

He's your brother, you talk about him.

<3 <3 <3

[laurahale]

You must miss your dad as well as Scott. [She says, offering Stiles a sympathetic look.]

[studmuffin]

Yeah.

I mean, okay so where I'm at I wouldn't want him there anyway because it's a mess, bad things happen like every day. But I miss him. I miss just hanging out.

[laurahale]

You can't leave this place?

[studmuffin]

Nope. Kinda stuck.

[ Pulling a face. ] With a bunch of Gods who like to curse the residents weekly.

[laurahale]

What if I offered to help you, Derek and Isaac get out of there?

[studmuffin]

As awesome as that sounds? I kind of don't think it's going to work. Derek shouted at a barrier for like, ages. And now he's living in a shack.

Like a terrifying lumberjack.

[laurahale]

Or the Big Bad Wolf. [Snort.]

But...there's gotta be a way out, right?

[studmuffin]

You can leave when they give you the opportunity to. And they're tricky. I traded for my jeep? Now I can't leave Derek's side for the next two weeks. I'd have read the small print, but there wasn't any.

[laurahale]

Wait. Derek hasn't traded the Camero has he? [BECAUSE IT ISN'T HIS TO TRADE!]

[studmuffin]

No, it's totally fine. I think anyway.

[ A shrug. ] Back home anyway, I guess. We don't really have a choice on what we arrive in the City with. And I didn't see the car when I found him shouting in the woods.

[laurahale]

I want to help you guys get out of there. You shouldn't be there. [And if she helps out Stiles (who she's growing fond of) then it means she'll get to see Derek again.]

[studmuffin]

Derek probably wouldn't like you trying as much as I wouldn't like my dad to.

[laurahale]

What Derek doesn't know can't hurt him.

[studmuffin]

He'd hurt me when he found out, I'm sure of that.

[laurahale]

I wouldn't let him. You seem like a nice guy, Stiles. And although Derek probably hasn't ever said it, I bet he considers you as a friend.

[studmuffin]

Oh. Hey, thanks. [ Rubbing the back of his neck. A Hale is being nice to him. Usually they just threaten him until he does what they want. With added sarcasm. ]

But I think mostly I'm just like a buzzing to him. It's cool, he couldn't handle my awesome.

[laurahale]

[This is why Laura is the best Hale because she isn't a butthole like Peter and she isn't big on threat making like Derek.]

So, do you get to take breaks away from the place you're stuck in?

[studmuffin]

Like physically? From the actual City? Nope. If you leave, you forget. And people don't always come from the same point.

Like, has your brother ever seen a science fiction movie? He turned up and just went, oh hey, this is the future, and it sucks.

[laurahale]

So, you're saying it's like magic?
