Not So Creepy Mansion | Late Afternoon

So things since the nogitsune thing ended had been...well, very awkward. It was awkward with his father, awkward with Scott when he said he didn't feel right about going to Allison's funeral and it was especially awkward with Derek. He didn't know where they stood at the moment, but he did know he was staying in the spare bedroom. Which...wasn't good.

At least the weirdness with Derek had encouraged Stiles to catch up with Cora as soon as possible and, after explaining the odd situation, had finally gotten together everything he needed to explain that whole thing to him. Whether that would make things better or worse he didn't know.

For now he was just hanging around his new room and wondering how to approach this.

"Probably not a bad idea," Jack acknowledged. "Might be hard to tell the truth to a stranger, though. Unless they've dealt with possession before."

"I know a few people that would be able to handle it." Wasn't that an emissary's job? "If not I'll come up with euphemisms."

"You'll figure something out," Jack nodded. "So ... what else is next? Are you here for a bit?"

[robinonadderall]

He nodded. "I guess so. Until school starts."

Man. That was something he didn't want to think about.

"Oh, god, that," said Jack, who hadn't wanted to think about it either. "Where are you going?"

[robinonadderall]

"University of Maryland," he replied. "So not too far."

[bitten_notshy]

"Good," Jack nodded. "I wouldn't want Puppy Joe to get separation anxiety if you couldn't visit regularly."

By which he meant he never wanted anyone to leave the island, and he was glad Stiles wasn't going far while things were so raw.
