teen wolf - scott mccall

one ✚ arrival

[ If anyone is hanging out in the square, they'll see a very confused looking teenager slowly bringing what is not his cell phone closer to his face. And if anybody is looking at the network, they see the adorable can't be mad at that face moving closer to the screen. He tilts his head, perplexed. He looks around. Nobody else looks completely confused.

But, wait. He hears other people on this thing. He squints. Could this be some kind of mass communication device? Give a gold star to Scott McCall as he looks around him and then back down. ]

Can anybody hear me? Or, see me? Anyone know how far away I am from Beacon Hills? [ Or how he even got here? ] It's in California. [ This doesn't look like California. He'd ask for help but it's not exactly something he wants to do. He can handle this. It reminds him of those times he woke up miles from home. But, that was a wolf thing. Could this be true alpha related? Is this something he has to look forward to? ] Or, if anybody near me has a cell, I need to reach some people. [ Or, at least his mother. Hi Mom. I'm all right. I just woke up in a strange place. ] Thanks.

[ But, he pauses. His nose picks something up. Yes. He distinctly smells something familiar. Or, mouth-watering. It's not clear. And that's all the network gets as he brings it back down to his side. But, the video continues as he's walking in some nondescript direction. ]

[Another one of those sick kids trolling the network because there's nothing else to do but sleep and vomit and hate life. So, distractions!]

my old roommate lived in california for a bit.

[ You really are a dime a dozen. But, the only one Scott's met has been Kirk and that's not even in person. But, he's definitely a kid. Another person he's never met. This is a fun game? ]

where in?

[Aww yeah games.]

costa verde if i remember correctly. been a while. nice out there?

[ Better than being sick in bed alone. ]

it can be.

[ Biggest coincidence, he was just discussing a piece of a Costa Verde puzzle. ]

i've only heard of costa verde on tv. never been. never been outside of beacon hills

[She assumes hearing about it TV means it was on the news. So... that makes sense. Right? Right. Ugh, headaches.]

never been across the atlantic. claire moved around though.

welcome to the city

[ Sure, that makes sense. Though she'd be wrong. ]

your roommate's name was claire and she was from costa verde? thanks

[Shh. Let her believe her assumptions in this case.]

yeah bennet. she left a few years ago though

[ Well, Stiles wasn't lying or joking. Not that that's a funny joke. Probably not best to tell this person their roommate was on a television show. ]

i'm sorry.

[You'll learn pretty quickly that the City has all sorts living in it, dear Scott. Ginny rolls over in her bed and squints at the screen, then decides to carry on with texting with her eyes closed. Because it just feels better.]

happens. people come and go. some sooner than others. reckon it's luck

[ He shall, he shall. As for Scott, he's got his feet propped up on one of Derek's coffee tables. Derek probably made it, too. He's sure Derek has too much time on his hands. ]

my friend went home twice. but he's been here for a year. have you ever gone home?

[It goes like this: you have too much time on your hands and fall into a rhythm and a schedule and then the City smacks you in the face with craziness. Extremes at all times.]

twice. last time was a year ago.

[ Scott is starting to get that. Was Stiles really a puppy? He probably was. This place is actually weirder than what he's used to. ]

let me guess, you didn't remember anything when you got back. until you ended up here again. and remembered everything. it makes no sense. what do you know about the anonymous rebellion?

right.

[This next text takes a while as she carefully types it out through her headache.]

deities interrogated me at the start. got thrown in jail for stuff i did back home, reckon they thought i'd do the same here. rebel i mean.

they were half right. i fought here too when i got out

nothing here makes any sense. not that i'm used to

[ and then he gets the second. ]

you were thrown in jail? they can't do that? what jurisdiction would they have? are you a part of anonymous???

[Bloody hell, questions.]

NO i'm not. it was rubbish. threw loads of us in jail. they were scared and then we all fought back

[ Deal with it. ]

You broke out

tried to. got broken out

was terribly cranky about it all

so the deities held actions you took back home against you here.

well rumours of rebellion in the city... history of leading one back home... didn't look good

why'd you lead one back home

shoddy professors

[That's... part of it.]

you were in college? you rebelled against your college? peaceful protesting?

no i was 16 and it was boarding school. more serious than it sounds. war i guess

you declared war on the teachers at your boarding school. why wait why

no we already had a war happeni

you know

never mind
