004 CLASS - The hours seem to tick by that much more slowly when the temperature is on the rise....
005 LOCKED OUT - Crap. Where did you put your keys. Did you REALLY manage to lock yourself out on the hottest day of the year?
006 WILD CARD - Anyway you want it

001 SHADE - Not perfect. But it will have to do..

"I... Don't know," he said, glancing at Stiles. "I can't let up on my training. Who knows what's coming and I want to make sure I stay focused." It wasn't by Derek's orders, but his own determination not to let his alpha down.

[teenyoda]

"Yeah? Stay focused on what, how to work yourself to an early grave?" Derek was still a dick. Don't tell him he wasn't, Isaac. Stiles knew better.

[excessive]

He snorted. "Given my life I'm facing that one way or another. Think I always assumed I was." Between the abuse, and his brother's death, he'd never thought about growing old. He barely thought about growing up.

"Besides, Derek's place has air conditioning. Not like out running for cross country or something."

[teenyoda]

"Yeah, well, think again. Positive reinforcement, Isaac. It works." It had kept him from winding up dead, so he could actually claim it as legitimate.

"Really? The loft? Has air conditioning? Those are called 'hole', Isaac, not central air."

[excessive]

"Okay fine. It has fans. I know. I put them in the work room."

And he's stolen them two days ago. What? It was hot in there.

"And my enforcements are fine, thank you."

[teenyoda]

"Your enforcements are shit." So he might be a bit more blunt than perhaps Isaac needs, but hey, the guy barely listened to him. He didn't have enough fur or something. Maybe if he started shaving his chest, he'd grow some hair and then Isaac would take him seriously.

[excessive]

"What the hell do you want me to say? I'm making the most of the life I have, Stiles. What else am I supposed to do?"

[teenyoda]

"Want more." He shrugged, turning the wheel to go left. "Don't be satisfied with what you have when what you have is shit."

[excessive]

He sighed, slumping. "I owe Derek, Stiles. Beyond that I don't want to leave him. He's my alpha. He's the closest thing to family or friend I have in this world. What more is there for me to want," he asked, having convinced himself to be happy with what he has.

[teenyoda]

"I never said you had to leave him. I just said you had to want to do more than just be part of his pack. There's a whole world out there, Isaac. There's a whole world here, but if you just wrap yourself up in Derek's universe, you're going to miss it."

[excessive]

"Like what," he asked softly, meaning it. "Have you looked around this town?" He slumped, shoulders hunching in. "Beacon Hills is this, Stiles. Look at our lives."

[teenyoda]

"Beacon Hills is more than werewolf shit, Isaac. Sure, be a werewolf. You can't change that, I get that. But you're not just a werewolf. You can't just lock yourself up in that."

[excessive]

He chuckled, a soft huffing of sound as he glanced at Stiles. "I get what you're saying, I do, but a lot of my life is just that. Before... I was given this chance, I'd kind of...' He made a sound. "I had given up. There wasn't much beside getting through school and getting through home without..."

He choked on the words, thinking about the freezer. "Yeah. There wasn't a lot, Stiles."

[teenyoda]

"But this isn't then, Isaac." He was getting closer to Derek's place. "Things aren't perfect, but they're... better? Maybe? They could be."

He felt a little bad for Isaac, more so because of what the guy had gone through at home with no one else aware of it. No one but Jackson and he and his dad shared the same opinion on that.

[excessive]

"They're better." That he wouldn't argue. He couldn't argue that it wasn't better. There was no freezer. Anything was better without that threat.

He made a sound. "Stiles. Even the threat of the alpha pack is not as bad as the freezer," he whispered softly.

[teenyoda]

Stop it, Isaac. Stop making him feel sorry for you.

"I have no idea what you went through, Isaac, but a sucky situation can still be a sucky situation. I'm sorry."

[excessive]

"Yeah, not your fault," he said, much as he sometimes bitched about no one doing a damn thing. "I could have gotten out." Except he hadn't tried. Because he was constantly blaming himself. He had done things wrong. He had been the one to screw up. He deserved what he got, hadn't he?

"Besides, right now I'm technically a homeless kid. Pack shit and school is pretty much my limit," he said, chuckling, making it all a joke.

[teenyoda]

"You're not homeless. You're staying with Derek. That might arguably be worse, but at least you have a roof over your head." No, he probably wasn't helping, but he was trying.

[excessive]

Isaac, for his sake, realizes that he's trying and he gave Stiles a small smile. "Not always worse. Just when he broods. Standing at the window. Brooooding."

Yep, he was trying.

[teenyoda]

"Does he have any other modes? Aside from scowling and growling and douche?" He smiled back, glad to at least get that from the other teen.

[excessive]

Isaac considered this. "Hmmmm. Cranky? Is that pretty much scowling," he smirked. "So pretty much that's it, yeah. No wait. Sleeping!"

[teenyoda]

"Derek sleep? I thought that was why he was so grouchy. Well, that and needing to get laid."

[excessive]

"He sleeps. Well, he powers down in the corner. I count that for the same," he admitted. "You know, he just stares off into space, kind of broody but not angry. That's sleep."

[teenyoda]

"Don't take lessons from him. You need sleep. You can go insane and like, kill yourself from micronaps if you don't." Says the voice of experience.

[excessive]

He glanced at Stiles. "This is an explanation for you in freshman year, isn't it," he asked, not even meaning it but he can't help but make the point, take the jab. "And that is assuming I'm sane, right?"
