I'm there, they get upset. I'm not there, they get upset. [ let it be known that neither erica nor isaac are particularly easy betas to handle. he misses boyd. ] They should know they can rely on me. I am his alpha, not Scott. Not even now.
No, dude. You bit them. You don't own them. Case in point being Scott and Peter. Weren't you the one that practically cockblocked him from getting Scott to join his pack?
Your intentions might be good, Derek, but your methods sort of suck.
No, correction, they suck all over. You almost killed Lydia. You would have been wrong. You give like, zero thought to your actions and half the time they wind up sucking. I know you've got a brain because I've seen you read books, and not just the ones with pretty pictures. So use it. Be a person. Don't just bark orders at them and expect them to fall in line. They're teenagers. We're teenagers. We're not military personnel. Some of us would really suck at that. They also weren't born like you are. Isaac can barely wolf and whose fault is that, huh? Who was supposed to be training him, teaching him?
I did-- [ my best, but it seems like such a lie. he'd tried to teach them, had tried to be there, but in the end derek had no idea what he was doing, still quite doesn't. and this place, asgard, hasn't helped one bit when it comes to being a pack, being an alpha and looking after betas.
he ends up sighing, the sound stifled as he gathers himself. ]
I'm trying.
[ or maybe he's slowly giving up. he's not entirely sure anymore. ]
So try. But getting mad at Isaac for having someone in his life that's not you? That's not the best way to start trying.
[He almost felt bad for Derek. This Derek was an earlier version that was way too tired, more tired than he remembered. He missed the one he'd gotten used to. The one he felt like a friend to. This one was still snappy.]
[ he wants to point out that he's not mad... just worried. but derek ends up keeping the words to himself, and eventually gives what might, just might, be the slightest nod. he knows stiles is right even if it all sucks. l: ]
If Scott hurts him though, even you won't be able to save him.
From what I heard, you likely knew what you were walking into. So, you know, maybe a little more discretion there, creeper. Unless that's how you're getting your jollies now.
You can't hear something that's about to happen. [ he means the face sucking. granted their heartbeats had been out of control which had been all the more reason to check on them. ]

Okay, Isaac's mom. We get it. You're big and bad. Just... try not to be too much of an ass about it. Let them figure it out.
no subject
What they need is to figure out better timing. I don't want to walk in on them again.
