Hale? [Internal cringe at the name] He was a Christmas gift from Rachel. She has the Draw Life ability, so she can pretty much doodle up whatever she wants and just pull it off the paper. Food included. It's literally the best thing ever.
[There was a wolf cub named Cora and a dragon named Hale.
Stiles.
She's going to give you a bit of a look for that, but moving on.]
Erica said you were in Odin. Does that mean everyone in Odin can do ... that?
[She means setting yourself on fire, because she's fully prepared to basically avoid Odin people at this point. Except for Stiles because she has a feeling he won't give her a choice.]
[HIDEY HO, NEIGHBORINO!! No, you have no choice, Cora.]
What, fire? No. Each house has two, uh, powers, I guess. You're in what, Thor? Speed and strength. Odin has fire and ice. Lydia's in Odin, too, and she got ice. Allison and Scott both have Disney Princess powers from Freya. Isaac and Erica are in Hel and have, uh, shadow powers and body control. And... Derek's in Thor too. He had strength when he was here before. Don't know if he still does now. My dad was in Heimdall when he was here.
[Yeah, that's what she figured. She takes in all that information, matching it up with the houses that Erica told her earlier. She doesn't know enough about mythology to make sense of all of it, but for the most part it seems to make sense.]
Peter's in Loki. Derek said he had telepathy.
[Because she knows Stiles and she knows Peter, and she knows that explosions are bound to happen at some point or maybe they already did, who knows. But this is backtag land and Peter is still an issue.]
[She fights the urge to eye roll, hard because, yes, she gets that Peter is a douchebag, but he's also her uncle and some of the only family she has left so having him here, even when she's not really sure if he's okay, has been kind of comforting.
Emphasis on the kind of.
But she doesn't push the issue because she knows how most people feel about Peter.]
He's still here. But when I last saw him, he was ... off. Like he wasn't remembering things properly.
[Yep, he was picturing a fantasy girl's sleepover with Erica and Cora. Maybe Rachel could stop by and there could be a redhead, a blonde, and a brunette. Little Witches of Eastwick thing going on. What? He liked all flavors of the female persuasion.]
[Only it's unclear if she actually means that or she's saying it because it's probably the thing to say. It's more likely the latter. But she'll show up anyway.]

[Ah, Stiles. Yes. This was a thing, but it might be a thing that happens a few days later.]
Peter can also suck it. Hard. And then choke on it.

no subject
Yeah, that was going around. Things happen here. Lots of things.
[Like his girlfriend suddenly becoming a guy. That was a thing. He hated that thing.]
no subject
Yeah, I'm getting that.
[She's had several "things" happen to her since she got here, and she hasn't liked any of them.
At all.]
no subject
And you thought Beacon Hills was crazy. So far, there's no ninjas here.
no subject
But that last comment gets a slight eyebrow raise.]
Ninjas?

[Smoothest topic change EVER.]
no subject
For now.]
Yeah. Erica asked me to stay with her while Isaac was gone.
[After that is sort of up in the air. It depends on how Isaac reacts to her, really.]

Oh, and if you see a redhead coming into the house, uh... don't like... growl at her or anything. That's Rachel.

[He waves and turns to keep walking, Hale settling back around his shoulder.]
