[ It's late, or early, depending on how you look at it. Stiles' jeep is idling on one of the dirt roads into the forest and the feed shows the dark blur of baby blue before he lifts his device to flash a crooked grin. He's happy about something, maybe he's been exploring, maybe he's just pleased he's able to talk without bringing down the apocalypse on anyone's head. And if anyone thinks that's an over-exaggeration they haven't met Derek.

He's about to say something, mouth already forming the words when his whole body jerks forward. He shudders, a punched out hiss of pain passing his lips, the sound chased suddenly by a dark splatter of blood bubbling up from his throat. His device drops to the forest floor, Stiles' falling beside it before the feed ends. ]

(( ooc: so most of the replies will come from the hospital after Derek's dragged him there. His wound comes from Teen Wolf - 'Heart Monitor' and is borrowed off Derek and his lovely gutting by the alpha. action for the werewolves, video/audio for everyone else. He'll probably be loopy off of pain meds too, enjoy ))

[Mae finds the post in the morning, when she wakes up and does the prefunctory network check. She recognizes Stiles, and smiles a bit at his excitement, and then does not smile at all.

Quickly, she types.]

Stiles? Someone BETTER have gotten to help him, so whoever has his device right now, speak.

[ By morning he's still not dead, even though he's pretty sure he should be. He doesn't heal like Derek and it feels kind of like he's been ripped apart. But whatever this curse is, it seems to be keeping him in a perpetual state of not-being-dead. At least the drugs are good.

That doesn't mean his typing has improved. ]

[Derek doesn't have to check the Network - he's up and out rigging a better shower when he smells the blood, Stiles' blood, and is running towards where the kid is. He's wolfed out enough that if there's something to fight, he'll fight it, but when he sees Stiles he stares. He recognizes that wound. It's his.

He runs next to him to press his hands on Stiles' stomach and howls for Isaac. He's never done that, but he hopes his beta will get the message.]

[studmuffin]

Der -. [ Who thought bleeding to death would keep Stiles quiet? Because it won't. ] I don't know what - I.

[ A shuddering sound. ] Fuck.

[lupusalpha]

What happened?

[Derek looks at the wound - an alpha did this - but he doesn't smell or sense anyone else. Come on, Isaac. Hurry up.]

[studmuffin]

[ Wheezing. ]

There wasn't anyone.

[Penny might have left a few messages of the frantic "Stiles, are you alive?" variety. Sorry about that.]

Stiles? Are you around?

video; which is mostly of half his face because he's high as hell.

[studmuffin]

I survived the shark attack! Except it's not Shark Week. And there weren't any sharks.

video; that's the only way to be post gut-ripping-out

[anunluckypenny]

Uh...? Are you in the hospital?

video; this is what happens when people move away from the youth center.

[studmuffin]

The big bad wolf did like a whole wil-e coyote thing and got me here double time and now I am sort've frozen in between death defying feats.

It's neat. [ A snort. ] Hey, I rhymed.

[ Action ]

[bettercallit]

[ An hour after the feed went out over the network, Clint finally catches it, and another half an hour after that, with no response from the device, he's knocking at the door to the hospital room and opening it a crack to peer around it.

In a loud whisper. ] Stiles, you with us?

[ Action ]

[studmuffin]

I am present in body if maybe not so much mind. [ Clint, were you worried? Because Stiles is grinning even if he looks like death itself and is currently bandaged to high heaven. ]

[ Action ]

[bettercallit]

No change there then.

[ He pushes the door wider, closing it after he lets himself in, and goes to sit by the bed, dragging the chair closer. ] What's the damage?

[ Action ]

[studmuffin]

Gut rippage. [ He's wearing flimsy hospital pajamas, ends up lifting his shirt to show Clint the bandages. ] Perpetual state of agonizing near death and the occasional awesome taste of blood with my jello.

[ Sarcasm really is his only defense. ]

[helsmaiden]

Stiles, are you alright?

video

[studmuffin]

Jello is really weird, Leah. Don't ever get injured.

Re: video

[helsmaiden]

I will endeavor to avoid them both. Are you injured?

video

[studmuffin]

Yeah. But hey, the City's stopping me from dying, so.

[synanthrope]

[She came to see Chase, but Stiles is there and his jeep smelled like blood, so here she is.]

They must be giving you high doses of medication.

[studmuffin]

I think I really like drugs.

[ He's trying for solemn but mostly it ends up like a goofy grin. ]

[synanthrope]

I know.

I can tell.

[She sits next to him. He stinks of wolf but-]

You almost died.

[studmuffin]

It's not that much of a new thing. [ Tilting his head to the side. ] Okay, this bit is. The actual injury of almost death, that's new.
