[ Melissa is not in her scrubs this time, but her civvies, and she’s smirking quietly to herself. The memory of Scott closing the door in his father’s face is one that she’ll treasure for a very long time. ]

Hello? Scott McCall and I are back again. I think we just took a year off the poor worker’s life, the guy doing the drywall in the clinic? Yeah, not pretty. I’ve never seen a saw bounce before. Hope I never see it again.

[ And, sure enough, there’s a very loud buzzing just off camera. Apparently the worker heard that. Oops.

Into the feed, a wild Scott McCall appears! Just his head, anyway, leaning down into it beside his mother’s. ]

But, he’s fine, he’s fine! [ He looks off screen.. ] Nobody was injured. [ He looks back. ] Sorry to anybody if we had plans. But, we’re back now and we’re not planning on going anywhere. [ Unless everyone else gets out with them.

Melissa pokes her head back into frame again.]

Oh! And Lydia? Tell me you fed the cat? I mean...how long have we been gone, after all? Ziggy wasn’t too much of problem, was he?

[ Scott is about to say something else, but he notices something offscreen. ] No way. [ And he slides out of frame leaving Melissa to take the reins. Offscreen… ] Cool.

...Okay. Just a note to say we’re back. Stiles, Isaac, Derek? Are you all okay?

[ And Scott is back. ]

You’re still here, right? [ Scott brings it closer, fiddling and then soon, the feed is private! ]

derek ]

Thanks. [ To his mom. To the device... ] I think I’m all caught up. Sorry if you came by Monday night. The City thought we didn’t need to talk. But, we still should.

isaac ]
We will hang out this weekend.

[ Fiddling with it again, Scott adjusts to make the feed public once more ]

public ]

So, that’s what leaving is like. We had no clue we were here. And then we were just… back. If anybody needs us, we’ll be back at the apartment in a couple of minutes. Angela, I’ll be in to work tomorrow. [ A beat before he adds ] Has anybody heard from Wally?

[ ooc: Replies will be coming from both Scott and Melissa! ]

[ This is the best reaction! ]

You think? [ It is pretty damn cool, isn't it? Watch his eyes turn red! WATCH! ]

[studmuffin]

[ He half wants to scream and dance in a circle or something. Like a teenage girl. ]

Oh my god, True Alpha. That's the best.

action;

[affectioning]

But, I'm not biting you. [ And you don't need it. He likes you just the way you are! ]

action;

[studmuffin]

Awh, it could have been third time lucky. I said no to Peter, I said no to Derek, you could have broken the cycle.

[ HE'S SO EXCITED. ]

action;

[affectioning]

And your werewolf virginity. [ Always talking about Stiles virginal self. ] Hey, maybe you'd become something cooler. The bite affects everyone differently.

action;

[studmuffin]

Maybe I should sell my virginity on craigslist. I read about a girl who did that once.

[ HE'D GET MONEY TO NOT HAVE SEX, JUST WATCH. ] I'm not letting you bite me to test whether or not I'd be a lizard.

action;

[affectioning]

I think it was her dad who did it. And she was a lesbian.

[ PLEASE TO NOT BE AUCTIONING OFF YOUR LESBIAN DAUGHTER'S FAKE VIRGINITY. HAHAHA ] It wouldn't be a test. If it came down to it and I had to - I'm just curious.

action;

[studmuffin]

[ Woe. ]

What do you think I'd be?

action;

[affectioning]

Not a lizard. Or a banshee. Oh. Lydia's a banshee. [ Maybe they didn't have this yet. ] What else is out there. Maybe a vampire?

action;

[studmuffin]

Lydia told me.

[ Pause. ] A werewolf bite couldn't make me a vampire, dude.

action;

[affectioning]

Who knows what it could make you. Maybe it'll make you a leprechaun.

action;

[studmuffin]

[ Pointing at him. ]

No.

action;

[affectioning]

Then you come up with something.

action;

[studmuffin]

I can't believe I blink and you're an alpha.

[ SO WEIRD. ]

action;

[affectioning]

You didn't blink. It's been a month. [ From when he thinks Stiles is from. ]

action;

[studmuffin]

Wow.

So do you get to boss Isaac around?

action;

[affectioning]

[ Sore subject take one. ]

He's still Derek's Beta here. He lives with him. I don't know if he's still in my pack.

action;

[studmuffin]

Is pack like suddenly super important to you?

action;

[affectioning]

It's not that it's important. It's that I know who they are and what it means to me. You, Allison, Isaac, and Lydia. I even think the alpha twins are a part of it, now. So, it is different here.

action;

[studmuffin]

[ Curiously.

With no ulterior motive. ] Can you be in more than one pack?

action;

[affectioning]

I don't know. [ He really doesn't. Riding the line of spoilers. ] But, it doesn't come up back home.

action;

[studmuffin]

Did Derek really sleep with our evil English teacher?

[ He's the most transparent. ]

action;

[affectioning]

Yeah.

[ How does that... have to do with anything? ]

But, that's not why.

action;

[studmuffin]

[ Hey Scott, Stiles is kind of in love with the guy he's supposed to hate !!!!!! ]

I didn't think he'd sleep with someone for pack purposes.

action;

[affectioning]

Is that something people do? [ Wait. Yes. ] Sorry. Ethan and Aiden. But, Lydia took advantage. And when I'm from -- it's real. Him and Lydia. Ethan and Danny. They're on our side now. [ Getting sidetracked. ] But, no, Derek slept with her because... he liked her?
