    Summary

    Stiles and Scott embark on a road trip together. This isn't a metaphor (except for how it is.)

    “It’s okay, I’m good.”

    “Yeah, you’re the best,” Scott replies automatically.

    It’s one of their stock phrases, something they’ve said since childhood --- as natural to them as their ability to communicate through eyebrow-raises, their super-secret handshake and their unending loyalty to one another, but Stiles thought they’d retired it when they were fifteen, so he glances at Scott quickly.

    “Sometimes I think we’ve forgotten how to be us and then you say something, or look at me a certain way, and it all comes back.”

    Summary

    It doesn’t matter how Scott asks, Stiles always says he’s fine.

    Scott’s not sure who’s supposed to believe it, or if Stiles just says it because it’s what he thinks he’s supposed to say. They do this now. They break and bleed and fall to bits, but so long as they say they’re okay then none of it’s really happening. It’s a nice idea. Just stick your fingers in your ears and hum really loud.

    The problem is that it’s not working, and Scott’s terrible at pretending it is.

    Summary

    Stiles waits until Scott’s focused on the game, eyes narrowed and his tongue poking at the corner of his mouth, fingers tapping at the controller, before he says, “So I think we should kiss.”

    Summary

    "And what kind of madness is it, anyway, to be in love with something constitutionally unable of loving you back?

     

    Are you sure— one would like to ask— that it cannot love you back?” (From Bluets, by Maggie Nelson.)

    ---

    Stiles and Lydia are soulmates.

    But.

    Summary

    “I'm waiting to see what happens with the Slow Kids’ girl. And she’s worth the wait.”

    “Even if you haven't been getting off recently?”

    “Even if so.”

    “How long would you wait on her?”

    “I'm in no rush.”

    “So you like her enough.”

    “I like her an unbearable amount.”

    “Unbearable?”
