Two ☾Text ☾ Dear City

[outofthefreezer]

Dear city,

I'm worried about growing distant from my friends. Everyone seems to have settled so well, found their place.

What if we were only together because there wasn't any other options for us? What if the only real reason was because we were all affected by the same things.

[ His first instinct is to maybe poke fun. But Isaac's been okay since he got to the City and maybe, just maybe, Stiles can understand a little of his worry. So he gets the device and fires off a quick text. ]

congrats cursee. you ok?

[Isaac's pretty annoyed at himself since he realised this had happened. The mixture of the fact that it was his first curse and that it was so personal meant he'd stormed off out of the house to chill in the forest. He's almost surprised when he sees that Stiles fired him a non-snarky text, but they'd been getting on better.]

i uh, i didn't mean to do that. its stupid.

[ He doesn't text for a few minutes but eventually Isaac's device must buzz again. ]

[hischair]

like you're going to mess something up but you don't know what that something is?

[outofthefreezer]

[hischair]

having no idea what you're supposed to do can suck

just be yourself

[outofthefreezer]

that'd be easy, if I knew exactly what self was right now.

[Because he changed too often and these days most of what he was came from becoming part of the pack.]

Re: text »

[outofthefreezer]

smarts aren't easily defined

you're far from an idiot, i'd tell you if you were coming off as one

[outofthefreezer]

this whole thing is stupid, i never should've posted it to begin with.

[hischair]

it's not stupid to want to sort your head out

[outofthefreezer]

i guess it shouldn't really need fixing to begin with, i should be happy.

you don't have to be anything if it isn't what you're up for feeling at the time

[anunluckypenny]

i don't think that coincidences alone make friends. friends happen because other people like you, not because your in the same place or cursed or whatever.

I would recommend a group activity, preferably one that is fun.

[There's air quotes around the last word can you feel them.]

[lupusalpha]

It's not all your fault.

[makingastatement]

sometimes a lack of options is what brings people together.
