⃕ faint , amused ghost of a smile.

“ you’re in the clear . . . for now. ”

though , the smile fades just as quick as it
had made an appearance —- a more serious ,
questioning look now overtaking features.

“ having trouble sleeping ? ”

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

the note of jumpiness , surprisingly
enough , wasn’t judgmental. really ,
it was an observation.

the exhaustion was fairly obvious . . .
y’know , given the whole falling asleep
on his shoulder thing.

despite that , the joking persona manages to earn a ⃕

the lack of response is also, in turn, something stiles is used to. not just because of the amount of times derek has seen him flail in surprise or such, but well, it's derek. he swears the guy is a statue sometimes.

well, considering his recent record of sleep, --

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

uh - huuuh . . . well , at least he wins.
the biggest issue is the loss , normally.

and , it’s not really a complaint —- just an
observation. like he said , it would’ve been
a bit bland. not that he necessarily would’ve
taken it personally , but . . . it might depend.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

fair enough. it’s just that , in his
experience ? people who are thrilled
by the idea of chance—- also typically
have a gambling problem.

so . . . he’s big on metaphors then ?
though . . . he has to admit , that’s
definitely an interesting way to put it.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

quiet yawn.

heavily considering going back to
bed , but—- he has things to do.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

/ watching season one of teen wolf with one of my friends rn and he’s been calling stiles ‘ baldy’ the whole time. 😭😭

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

/ might make a writers acc just bc. i got a completely empty spare that i really only use to occasionally test layouts.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

hm . . . thinking he’ll order take - out.

feeling uncharacteristically nice , so . . .
any food requests ? speak now or forever
hold your peace.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

here we go again.

/ just fell to my knees in the walmart parking lot.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

raise of brows , smile fully
visible now —- perhaps a
little bit smug.

he’s letting it simmer for a few seconds.

eventually , head tilts at a slight
angle , then finally offering a verbal
response.

“ relax. i’m fucking with you.”

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

. . . 🤨

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

dunno , the whole . . . thrilled by leaving
things up to chance was kind of a big tell.

very much appreciated. ( ? ) just a little bit of
a forewarning about certain things is all he can
ask for , really.

and . . . yes , not human —- werewolf , to be more exact.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

everyday i wake up.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

prior twitch of lips is now
threatening to reveal itself
as what it really was —- a
small smile.

a raise of brows , arms now folding over chest.

“ hey , stiles ? ”

thinking maybe now’s a good time to interrupt
the rambling , lest they pop a vein in their head.

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

( he is gay people. )

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

. . . gay people. 😐

“ what you did —- it hurt the
most . . . and that’s because
it was * 𝒚𝒐𝒖 that did it.

regardless if that was what you
wanted to hear ? that’s the truth. ”

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

“ it’s because what you did . . . ” trailing off
for a few long moments , jaw visibly tightening.

did he even want to say it ? all it’d feel like is
another opportunity to open himself up , only
for it to blow up in his face.

⃕

[˗ˏˋ 𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐑 . @theburnthale]

unpleasant is quite the understatement. isn't being stuck with the memories bad enough? is that a reminder enough of everything without needing people to constantly shove it in his face?

`` bare minimum? `` he's scoffing, eyes rolling. `` i show i'm trying to make up, --

[𝓦𝐎𝐋𝐅 - 𝐌𝐀𝐍. @LOYALTYENDURING]

⃕

“ i TRUSTED you. you know
that. i did. i 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 did , peter. ”

a skeptical scoff , shaking his head.

. . . it should be said. it’s been
left unsaid for a very long time.

a ghost of a smile emerges ,
one with underlying contempt.
