There's a setting you have to push.

[Magical explanations on how that works.]

I've seen five. One big one, three baby ones, and one that died outside the castle.

[ferally]

[ push. push. growl pushpush! there. now it's private. ]

So, okay. The one big one is probably huge and scary, but I'm sure the babies can't be worse than a berserker.

-- Who are also pretty impossible to take down, but at least I have experience in trying.

[ grin! ]

[teenyoda]

Berserkers can't spit fire.

...

What the hell is a berserker?

[ferally]

A mostly-man dressed in bear skin and bones, who somehow managed to channel the animal's instinct so much that he lost his sense of humanity. Somehow.

They are not fun to go up against in a fight.

[teenyoda]

... When the he-- Are those in Beacon Hills? That's what we're fighting next? Jesus.

[ferally]

Yes. And they're only a part of it. But that's something we should probably talk about in person, and not when you're trying not to barf on a boat with your new pack. [ hrrrk that was a slip ] Your new group.

[teenyoda]

Hey, whoa, they're not my pack. That's a... that's a Scott thing. With Scott. These guys... they're good people. Jon's a good guy and Gendry's... well, he's Gendry. Sansa and Arya...

[ahaha... Sansa. Yeah. Not really going into detail on that with his future girlfriend.]

They're nice people.

[ferally]

It was a slip. It just- It sounds like you should have pack here, that's all. [ a thinky beat ] I'm glad you made friends here. [ grin! ] I'm sure they're great. [ still grinning! is it convincing yet? ]

[teenyoda]

[No, Malia. It was scary.]

I have friends. You could have friends here too, if you want.

[Hint hint? Offer offer?]

[ferally]

I do have friends here. I have you, and I have Lydia. [ ... ] You mean new friends, don't you?

I'm not great at making new friends.

[teenyoda]

Yeah, well, neither am I. Kind of a social anxiety thing. But if I can manage, so can you.

[ferally]

If you say so.

[ meanwhile she's going to end up meeting a bunch of Unseelies first woops whatever just taking Stiles' advice! ]

[teenyoda]

[MALIA. HE SWEARS TO GOD.]

[ferally]

-- What?

[ she knows that face. ]

I'll try. Okay?

Though I still think you're better at it than I am.

[teenyoda]

Yeah, well... you're wrong.

[Stiles is the lamest, okay? The lamest of the lame. He has no frans. Ever.]

[ferally]

No, I'm not.

[ so sure of herself! and of Stiles' friending ability! ]

You're funny, and you're non-threatening. You're easy to talk to. Sometimes you say too many words, too fast, but they're good words. [ wait, that's not what she means ] You're really good at talking to people. [ better? and now she'll try and think of something Stilesy to say- ]

Trust me. I'm from the future. I know these things.

[ g r i n ? ]

[teenyoda]

[Okay, that got a laugh. He shook his head and looked at the locket.]

I'm starting to get the feeling you're a bit biased.

[ferally]

But I knew you were good at talking before I started to like you.

[ though maybe she's not understanding the bias thing ]

Although I'm definitely biased towards you, yeah. I think that's what's supposed to happen when I like someone. I think about them a lot, and I like them better than everybody else.

[teenyoda]

[Ah... ego stroke there, Malia.]

Are you... saying you like me better than everyone else?

[Because that's a first.]

[ferally]

Yeah.

[ duh. ]

That's why you're my boyfriend.

[teenyoda]

Hah, right. Right. Boyfriend. With sex.

[Like he could forget that...]

[ferally]

You're doing that thing with your voice. And your face.

[ the thing!! not quite sarcasm but the thing. ]

Why?

[teenyoda]

Because... I don't know. It's hard to picture. Our last, ah... interaction was really... kind of... all over the place.

[There was still sex. But then Oliver had to come along and ruin it all...]

[ferally]

[ "kind of all over the place" is very Stilesy to say, but that still doesn't mean it makes sense to her. she's still learning! ]

Having sex on a couch with someone before you're in a relationship is weird, we talked about that. We talk about everything. Well, usually you talk, I listen. But I don't know what it means that you can't picture even it.

[ as in... she knows if she wasn't, um, herself, she might find a reason to take it personally, like most humans tend to do. ]

[teenyoda]

Well, because... hey, wait. We're not talking about me. We're talking about you. And you being here. And how you shouldn't stay where you are. Because of Peter.
