I know it's a long article but this is a deeply insane story about the incompetence and corruption of the FBI and sting operations

i think my favourite thing about urianger in arr and early hvw is the writers have no goddamn idea what to do with him except for have him give u bad news so he regularly gets put in the "idk he is off screen" corner with tataru during major battle events and the like. and then later on he starts dropping random like "yeah btw i know spells from sharlayan archmages" "i can cast spell of kill u instantly if i feel like it tbh" "i can mask and glamour an entire goddamn building" which means in arr the scions rly did have a weirdly capable wizard standing around and he was just like "idk ill just go escort tataru to the city to hang out. have fun fighting bahamut or ultima or whatever. you want me to help? goodness no ive got books to translate."

#minfilia sent him and tataru specifically out of operation archon which implies he SHOULD be on the same battlefield level as tataru #except hes not. hes fought before. and then later canon just is like 'yea he can do whatever'. he just went with that #uriangers priorities really are like 1. acab 2. ive got a journal to read 3. primals #fighting bahamut or garleans is not even on the LIST #also we all know about alphie constantly forgetting uri exists which is also extrmely funny to me

I'm probably going scarce for a bit.

Last night there was an incident. I called 988. There were cops. Lots of them.

They were not called by the 988 people. In fact they'd almost talked me down from this rage fireburst when the 5-0 showed.

I was triggered. Not into flight mode but fight mode. Rage. Frustration. A lot of primal screaming. A lot of people saw a hideous side of me yesterday.

My husband saw it.

To TLDR for you: this happened because of a wellness check gone wrong. There were supposed to be an officer and 2 medics. What was showed up was either 4 or 5 feral hogs cops and a single completely unsympathetic medic. And I am Black, trans, disabled, queer, and mentally ill.

I don't think I have to tell you this went reprehensibly.

I don't think — no, I know neither of us is ok right now.

I want to wake up Elsewhere.

Please do not call my phone, I will not answer. The sound of the human voice is a nightmare right now. Do not text, I cannot formulate sentences in conversational form. I barely wish to even be perceived. I have opened up here so you know why I disappeared as suddenly as I reappeared, to let you know I'm not about to do something stupid and permanent.

It has been 0 days since my last self harming incident. In the crisis I resorted to slashing my left leg up, to avoid inflicting violence on something else. I've done it before. It worked before. It worked again. It's not a habit I want to get back.

I just...why is humanity

Also, ACAB.

sometimes i just want to yell and scream about people who all "my character needs to be morally pure in all manners" because THAT IS NOT THE POINT! THE POINT IS HAVING NUANCED. CONVERSATIONS. ABOUT. WHY. THEY. ARE. THAT. WAY.

Got a call from the detective on my sexual assault case, and the DA has rejected the case, and ergo, the charges. He won't be a sex offender officially (even though he is) and he will face no repressions. I fucking hate it here.

Lightning McQueen?

Lightning McQueen from Pixar's Cars is yet another highly debatable character. Many things have been directly or indirectly confirmed to have analogs in the Cars universe (such as a Car Pope and a Car WWII), and there are a couple adult innuendos and references that are made (i.e. the female cars Mia and Tia "flashing" their headlights at McQueen in the first movie), but there is nothing that explains where the cars from Cars come from. The cars do canonically have different ages, however, with the most notable example being Maddy McGear:

She is shown in the third movie to be one of Lightning McQueen's biggest fans, and canonically has a mother, Melissa Burnabrake (who notably has a different last name), but this is the one and ONLY instance of what we can assume is a child shown in the ENTIRE Cars franchise. This results in a deluge of unanswered questions about the lore of the Cars universe, none of which have a definitive resolution to them. Are cars born? Or are they built and manufactured by other cars? Do cars have organs or do they have mechanical parts? Are new cars being produced at all, or is there a finite number of cars that simply get upgraded and repaired over time? Can a car change their profession at all or are they stuck as what they started as? are the cop cars assigned cop at birth (ACAB)? Is the deleted scene with McQueen's engine being removed and put into a broken-down steamroller to transfer his consciousness into it resulting in Mater doing the same with McQueen's body and stealing it for a joyride a canonical thing? What about the deleted scene where he falls into a mass car grave? Why are the bugs cars? The rodents? The cows and deer? How is there still food like sushi in the second movie if all animals are cars? Why do they both drink and pee oil? Did this used to be normal world filled with human that Maddy McGear made a Fairly-Odd-Parents-style wish to have everything be cars that retroactively altered the course of history?? DOES THE TSA SCENE IN CARS 2 IMPLY THAT THERE WAS THERE A CAR 9/11??????

...For the purposes of this blog, Lightning McQueen will remain uncategorized. Thanks for the submission. I need to go lie down.

Hobie: Canonically hates an entire group (cops), says he hates them, has personally killed one, and is openly proud of it and maybe even willing to do it again

People for some reason: Hobie loves everybody. Everyone one. There's no way he can harbor ill will towards someone. He looks past all the superficial stuff. He could never experience negative feelings about the experience of being oppressed - or openly talk negatively about a group of people actively complicit in his oppression. That's impossible, what are you talking about?? Why do you think he's mean? Also he's from a universe where racism and segregation never existed :)

I'm not saying Hobie would hate white people like he hates cops. I'm not saying he wouldn't date a white person - what I'm saying is:

MY SIBLING IN CHRIST, Hobie is a Murderer.

Hobie wears blue laces. He has murdered a cop. Because they were a cop. And he's proud of it.

Hobie is not a pacifist. Hobie doesn't 'just love', because he doesn't love cops.

You think he can hate an entire group of people (cops), and put effort into combatting then -

but you don't think he can hold and entire group in high esteem (black people) and put effort into uplifting them or seeking them out?

And even moreso -

If you like his laces, or find them okay - you are condoning murder. And that's coming from someone who likes them.

You like someone who killed a person based on their profession.

He wasn't looking past that!! And he doesn't want to! You're a cop - enough said bruh

You're fine with him murdering one of his oppressors based on their job, but not him personally choosing to not date his oppressors?

You're implying that actual murder is more acceptable than a black person not dating white people.

It's okay if Hobie does one - but not the other?

You are fine with him killing someone - so long as he experiences attraction towards white people??????

You think him perpetrating violence towards an entire group of people is okay, but not him choosing to not engage with white people romantically?

You're okay when he talks about hating the PM and the pigs and ACAB - but you think the idea of him expressing frustration towards his white oppressors impossible and also wrong of him?

Y'all are okay with writing fics of him being mean to Office Davis because he's a cop and that's okay and funny - but you think him being guarded around white people or romantically unavailable to them based on prior experiences is impossible and bad????

Murder is better than a black person not including you??? Huh???

'killing a man in cold blood and wearing it proudly I can look past, but not asking a white woman out? That's dispicable.'

mfer I'm GOBSMACKED cause at this point what logic are you running on??? What sense are you making???

I think Hobie would date any race (even though I think he'd be very observant and aware before taking on a partner who does not understand racism personally. not against it, but as a trans person - I have to be very keen on if a potential partner has hidden transphobia for my own safety and life, I think the same extends to Hobie and race.)

But the fact that these people are okay with him committing murder but not okay with him not being romantically available to white people goes to show they don't actually care about his characterization.

They don't actually think he loves everybody. They know what the blue laces mean.

They just care about consuming him. And they will twist his narrative any way they want in order to do so.

Even if that's implying that murder is better than racial solidarity.

I'm not saying Hobie would hate white people like he does cops.

What I'm saying is that Hobie

1) experiences direct racism as a dark skinned, natural haired black guy

2) he would be just as vocal about his anti-racism views as he is his anti-police stance.

The same way he holds cops accountable for the oppression they are complacent in and the divide that causes, he would do the same for the white people around him.

If Hobie talking about hating the cops and the Prime Minister in everyday conversation is okay to you, but him venting about disparity between races that has effected his whole life - makes you uncomfortable, question why.

They're both displaying negative views towards an entire group of oppressors, why is one okay to you?

Why is Hobie killing a cop completely plausible and acceptable to you, but him even talking or thinking about white people in a sightly negatively negative, frustrated light because of the trauma he faced - we all face - completely impossible and unacceptable to you?

Because you think cops deserve it and white people don't? Because you think police brutality is a conversation that matters but racism isn't???

As if the two things aren't linked??????

Because Hobie is just a puppet to you, and the idea he is not the Token Perfect Black Guy makes you uncomfortable???

Surprise!!! Hobie is an Angry Black Man. He's the scary black man who kills people!! Rarr be scared Boo!!!

Over in y'all corner like 'my boy wouldn't hurt a fly' meanwhile he in the back taking the lives of many and hospitalizing dozens more

Get comfortable with the fact that Hobie is not some hippie lover boy. If you a cop he don't fuck with you, if you black he's gonna uplift you until his last breath.

If you're willing to shout ACAB, you better be shouting BLM too.

That's it. Imma shut the fuck up about it now. I just had to get that one off my mind

Here Hobie

I can't I can't take him ugghh I wanna see him get belligerent so bad

#if he murders people hes okay but if he won't date me I hate him #no proofread #okay I'll stfu now sorry #spiderman #atsv #spider man #marvel #across the spiderverse #hobie brown #spider punk #spiderpunk #antiblackness #antiblack #racism

so i do honestly genuinely like odo. odo is the funky self-hating autistic coded alien of ds9. why was odo forgiven like instantly after collaborating with the dominion? not just by kira but by everyone? especially after it is implied that odo like mostly stopped because he loved nerys? if your main reason to oppose mass genocide and fascism is that you don't want your crush to die, maybe reevaluate your entire personality. also acab

Day 13 ~ Size Difference x Smoker x F! Reader

Title: Size Kink with Smoker and F! Reader WC: 1.1K CW: 18+ only, Spicy, consent very much implied, size kink, female reader, Smoker doing marine shit (ACAB sorry buddy that includes you), penetration, m!n0rs DNI you will be blocked

Smoker x F! Reader

Last DNI/Content Warning

Smoker saw the woman before he clocked the pirate that had assaulted another citizen. Her pretty face, her short and curvy stature, the way her ankles looked in her strappy heels as she walked the street minding her business. Not aware of violence behind her.

He did what he had to, he sprinted towards the crime. He could see that the pirate scum was targeting her next, the trajectory of his footsteps as he emptied the purse he stole for its valuables. Smoker pushed himself and whipped past the beautiful stranger, face tilting to meet and hold her gaze and he passed by her.

Smoker came down on the criminal with a swift kick and punch, pinning him to the ground. Calling for his subordinates, he kept a foot on the shackled prisoner as they gathered him up. Smoker looked to the woman.

"Are you ok miss?"

The blush spread from her cheeks down towards her neck. "U-uh yes, I am thanks to you." She twisted stray hairs behind her ear before continuing. "I should have known better if a strong, marine officer like you is sprinting head on in my direction."

Smoker's cigars tilted from his slacked grip, was this flirting? He let out a dry cough, and ran a hand through his hair.

"Priorities," he started out, pausing and not quite sure where he was going with that. "Had to neutralize the pirate before I could let myself entertain the idea of speaking to you." The smile on her face let him know he was doing well.

"I'm a Vice Admiral. Vice Admiral Smoker. Now that my officers have detained that man and I am no longer needed, would you like to have dinner with me?"

Smoker had to give it to himself, he hadn't dated in some time but he still had moves. After dinner he had been invited to her single story home for a glass of wine. And half a bottle later he was tangled in her silk bedsheets.

He towered over her shivering body, a light sheen glistened her skin as he pulled back from the heaving petting and kissing. His bulging cock restrained in his gray briefs, contained for now as he he built her up to take him. She took the opportunity to sit up and unclasp her bra, dropping it off the side of the bed and she smiled at him.

He groaned at the sight of her hardened nipples, he couldn't resist palming himself. Eagerly reaching out with one hand to palm a breast, they weren't small by any means but he smirked as he held one entirely in his hand, kneading it between his fingers. Pulling back to roll her nipple with thick fingertips. She keened into his touch, drawing her hand down to pull his hand away from her breast and down towards her pussy.

Her hand was so small against his large, calloused one but he followed her lead as she splayed his finger out and pressed down over her core, following her gentle, unspoken instructions. Moaning loudly was his reward, as was the slick that flooded her underwear from his touch as he rubbed her clit with his thumb and rubbed her core with his forefinger. He could cover her entire sex with one hand and he felt godlike.

One large finger pushed aside her panty, another edged her core and lips, rubbing the entrance and eliciting more moans from her. He plunged into her core, his finger being immediately hugged from by her inner walls, wet and wanting but not used to the intrusion. He slid his finger out and pushed in again, gaining depth and more moans; he repeated his actions until his palm was up against her clit and core, finger buried.

Smoker was broken from the dreamlike haze of the clenching on his finger when she reached out and placed soft trailing touches on his clothed cock. Glad he had put out his cigars, Smoker's jaw gaped as he enjoyed her small touches to his cock. His cock enjoyed it too, violently throbbing and that elicited a delighted gasp from her, doubling her efforts and focusing on his cockhead, leaking so much precum.

He began pumping his finger in and out of her and watched her expression become fucked out, stuttering her own ministrations as her muscles tightened, clenched. Didn't stop until she clenched and shook like she was an island being railed by a hurricane. Smoker grinned at the lovely sight. How would she look if she came on his cock. He had to know. He took off both their underwear as she recovered from her high, small body heaving dramatically.

He was almost ashamed at how the sight made his cock violently ache. Deciding to not waste any more time, he lowered his hips until his cock met her center, leaning down to place a gentle kiss to her swollen lips.

"Let me know if I hurt you, ok darling?" he husked out. She nodded her head in understanding. Smoker watched her face as he sunk his cock into her, her face contorting in shock and pleasure. His cockhead getting swallowed within her with no problem, it was his girthy shaft that was the issue. Rolling his hips, he let her adjust to his size before attempting to move forward.

Finding a good pace, he began to rut into her, becoming absorbed by her tightness, her heat and her clenching as she took his cock into her body. The wailing as erotic pleasure overtook her, Smoker watched her face, the way it slacked open when he angled his hips higher; the way she bit her lip when he took long strokes, finding the one that made her mouth open like an 'O' with her eyes screwed shut tightly itched that scratch he had.

Grunting loudly as he stabilized his position, he began to rut into her, maintaining that face until her walls closed and shuddered around him, screaming out his name as she came. Feeling her strength as he orgasmed on his cock, Smoker's own jaw became slack as he came too, hips stuttering as he sloppily jerked into her and rocked her frame.

Bracing himself on his forearms, he shuddered as he rode out his high, panting with a heaving chest into her own plush one. The shudders were contagious as they overtook her frame. Smoker gave her a smile and a kiss, and began to pull back to pull out when he saw something.

With a proud grin, he placed a large hand over her belly and pressed down, eliciting a sharp gasp from her. Craning her neck to see, her eyes widened at the sight of his bulge inside her pressed upwards, the way she could feel him from both sides, it felt like something she had never experienced before.

"Would it be selfish of me to ask for more of your time, miss?"

[sugawarassoulmate]

peach... hear me out... yandere suga, who takes advantage of the fact that his best friend is a cop. with some convincing, daichi will sweep sugas obvious crimes under the rug, completely ignoring the fact that suga literally kidnapped you. if theres anyone that comes off as a threat to the two of you, they'll disappear without a trace with no problem. and if you're being more of a brat than usual? handcuffs <3 at this rate, you'll never leave koushi's side ever again 😌

i am feeling ✨toxic✨

cw: gn!reader, implied kidnapping, implied murder, toxic relationship, yandere themes, daichi being a cop (acab)

you know what, yeah, suga definitely uses daichi's job to his advantage. officer sawamura, who looks past suga's odd behavior. he pretends he doesn't hear it so he doesn't have to do anything about it.

he knows how much suga loves you and you're such a sweet person. you just need a little push. so if daichi's best friend innocently asks if he can borrow some handcuffs, daichi doesn't question it. suga's personal life is none of his business.

it's a little weird that you're suddenly living with suga after only dating a few months, but you're just a couple of crazy kids in love. what happened to your ex? don't worry about it, daichi sure isn't.

you're just so pretty and obedient, always sticking by suga's side. daichi's just so happy that his friend found the perfect person for him!

Teen Wolf 1x01

Starting with cops. Not auspicious. ACAB.

Pretty house.

Obligatory shirtless dude.

Gross, dude, clean your sink.

He got dressed really fast. Multiple layers and shoes and everything.

Cop’s kid is a douche. People who come to my house when it’s not an emergency just because I didn’t answer my phone can get fucked, number one. Number two, he’s so fucking perky about it being half a body. Like, she’s not even a person to him. Which, I guess tracks since he’s a cop’s kid.

Wow, cop’s kid is like a super douche. He’s put the other kid down like three times in less than a minute. Why is red hoodie kid (real subtle with the imagery on that one) even friends with this guy? More importantly, why is he going along with all of this? Teenage boys are weird.

Lol, red hoodie guy asking the pertinent questions while douchebag’s like, huh, didn’t think of that. Why am I getting the impression that red hoodie guy is the brains behind this whole thing?

Oh, man, okay, severe asthmatic trying out for lacrosse does seem to be a pie in the sky dream, but cop’s kid was still a dick about it.

Also, as someone with both a severe asthmatic friend in high school, and someone who hangs around a lot with physically disabled people as an adult, cop’s kid is still being a dick. Fucker didn’t even slow down when his friend started wheezing, the absolute shitstain. Like, dude, that shit’s deadly.

Fucking hell, and then he starts running?! Oh boy, this kid is selfish with a severe lack of impulse control. I may actually hate him. Some of the worst kind of people to be around, tbh.

Red hoodie kid is the enabler who’s about to kill himself from an asthma attack. Not smart, red hoodie kid. You are better off without him.

Oof, second not smart move by Scott. Clearly the Sheriff has no control over his kid the punishment is going to amount to a lecture and do absolutely nothing to change his kid’s behavior (typical). Scott would have been better off getting a lecture and escort back to the car.

Now he’s soaking wet in the woods, where he doesn’t want to be, fresh off of an asthma attack, with no guarantee that cop’s kid will even wait for him the selfish fuck.

And now he’s lost his inhaler. Oh boy. 

And now he’s found a body. This just keeps going from bad to worse. Man, I really feel for him, as I too was the kid who got dragged into things and often had harsher consequences than the people who dragged me into them.

Shit, did he lose his phone too?

And there would be the wolf. And the bite. And red hoodie guy is the teen wolf, lol.

Okay, so Scott bikes to school. Which means his asthma might be more managed than I thought. Probably the attack the night before was due to the cold and the fear.

And we have another douchebag. Oh goodie.

Okay, but, like, nothing about cop’s kid trying to go back and find him? Nothing like an apology? Just, like, implying he’s either lying or stupid about the wolf and then getting weirdly excited about the dead body again?

THIS KID IS TERRIBLE SCOTT, WHY DO YOU HANG OUT WITH HIM?

As an aside, that’s a pretty comprehensive bandage. Like, do most parents stock large gauze pads and medical tape? I mean, my mom did, but she’s a nurse. I know for certain my dad didn’t.

So, like, quick question: is cop’s kid just borderline gross about all women?

Because on its own, his sort of but not quite catcall of Lydia is mostly fine. But…uh, they fucking linked Lydia to the dead woman’s body through the dialogue and the kid got super giddy about half the body and now all I can think of is that cop’s kid is into necrophilia and is imagining Lydia in the place of the random women. Like, wtf is going on here? Why are we characterizing this kid like this? Is he going to be a future villain because he’s giving me all sorts of bad vibes.

Did kids still pass physical notes in the 2010s? I feel like it all would have been texting by then. 

Lol. Kafka Metamorphosis. Oh boy.

So, Scott is going to see himself as monstrous and is going to struggle with his change and his humanity. Understandable.

But, like, Metamorphosis can easily be used as an allegory for the breadwinner of the family going through a catastrophic illness - either mental or physical - and becoming a burden to their family and eventually being cast aside.

It can also easily be read as someone who is treated as monstrous begins to believe that they are monstrous and thus becomes a monster.

I wonder if the show is actually going to explore either of these themes or was this just used as MTV shorthand.

Allison is very pretty and very tall. Also, new girl feels. I moved twelve times by the times I was twelve and hated it.

Scott, bro, you are not smooth. But you are cute, so you’re forgiven.

“Beautiful people herd together,” says cop’s kid to a gorgeous girl implying that she is not gorgeous. Why is he like this?

Douchebag Captain is still a douche. And Lydia’s 100% Cordelia Chase. Like, that conversation was so close to the initial conversation between Buffy and Cordelia it’s ridiculous.

Cop’s kid still being selfish, I see.

Also, interesting that Scott said he’s tired of sitting on the sidelines when it’s only two scenes after the Kafka thing. Because Gregor’s whole deal was being passive: things kept happening to him instead of him making things happen. If Scott is being the opposite of Gregor here, I wonder if instead of the being treated as a burden and cast aside this is going to go more with the original Teen Wolf story and he’s going to be the town hero somehow? Though with probably more of a Buffy vibe.

I know they’re showing that he can’t control it with him listening in on all of these conversations, but, like, I’m just imagining the first sense being smell and it’s hilarious.

The music choice is killing me right now.

Also, is lacrosse like hockey in that the ball needs to go across the goal line to count? Because, like, he took it in the face but it didn’t look like it crossed the line. Hockey goalies get hit in the face all the time and it’s totally normal.

Okay, cop’s kid got points back for cheering for Scott, but then immediately lost them because he instantly tried to ride his coattails. Ugh. This kid is terrible.

Captain douchecanoe doesn’t look at his Coach, just looks straight to his girlfriend. Like, bro, is her dick-game that good?

Ha! There is a smell thing. You’d think that would have kicked in when he was in the locker room.

Once again cop’s kid is being a dick.

If that is the right spot, I’m seriously impressed with Scott being able to find it again. There was a lot of fumbling and turning around in the dark and then falling down and getting chased. Like, I got lost because a house got painted once so the whole intersection looked different.

Lol, the music cue there is hilarious.

What a weird freakin dude. All aggressive and shit but then tosses over the inhaler. Mixed signals much?

“Only like a few years older” Uh, that man is clearly in his twenties. How old are these kids supposed to be? Are they seniors? I was thinking younger.

Of course cop’s kid recognizes random guy on sight from a violent crime from ten years ago. Yikes.

Okay, vet clinic letting a teenager close is a little weird. Maybe the vet’s on an emergency call? Also, maybe this is where Scott got his bandages the first time around.

Uh, like, is this the first time that day that Scott went back there? Why are the cats freaking out now?

I wonder how Allison got the dog in the car in the first place if it’s so aggressive.

Oooh, we have eye change.

Splint and painkiller seems reasonable, but, uh, usually they have an on call vet, and I feel like that might be an option.

Lol. The dog is judging you hard.

Aww, Scott making her feel better for her reaction. That’s sweet. It’s also interesting that he did it by feminizing himself instead of trying to convince her that her response was totally normal or that there was nothing wrong with being a girly girl. Not the usual take for a teenage boy.

“I hear this breed is very litigious.” That’s right, Scott says, I’m throwing out them big words because I got brains and brawn and compassion, pretty lady.

Oh my god, eyelash on the cheek too! How many tropes can we fit in this scene?

Scott is not your passive protagonist! Boy is shooting his shot!

BUT THE FULL MOON IS ON FRIDAY. Just in case you, like, missed it.

I dig the practical effect there.

No, but these music cues are still killing me. Also, how much was Scott shirtless in this episode? Like a good 50%, right?

The CGI wolf is bad.

I didn’t know lycanthropy came with sleepwalking. Well that’s terrifying.

Also, like, it’s interesting that the change is coming on slowly. It wasn’t immediate that night nor is it only going to happen during the full moon. It’s a bunch of little things and some are harder to deal with than others.

Honestly, that makes lycanthropy feel much more like an illness. A chronic illness that has weird symptoms and no one believes you? That sounds exactly like women and/or people of color trying to navigate healthcare.

“My mom does all the grocery shopping.” Oh. My. God. Baby boy, that was hilarious. He looked truly baffled, which does fit his character, but also his bff is a cop’s kid so like, I feel like he knows some drug lingo.

Scott flailing around trying to tell people the truth and nobody believes him.

Oh, yeah, clearly that boundaries lecture worked on cop’s kid.

Cop’s kid has ADHD, huh? That explains the impulsiveness without thinking things through, I guess. Doesn’t explain why he’s a dick though.

Like, here’s the thing. Cop’s kid isn’t wrong that people just can’t do that kind of thing overnight (and obviously isn’t wrong in this story). But, like, Scott’s been telling multiple people things like this for three days and literally everyone’s blown his concerns off. And now you’re coming to him with oh actually there is a wolf in California so now it must be werewolves and you expect him to believe you? Make it make sense.

Is this the first time we’ve heard cop kid’s name?

It’s funny that Stiles is like, this is totally true and factual information about werewolves that I looked up in this random book in my town’s library. Like, buddy. What? How would you know if any of it is actually true?

Stiles “the change can be caused by anger or anything that raises your plus.” Lol. The first physical werewolf change that we saw was Scott trying to calm a hurt dog down to help her. I mean, obviously it was the hearing thing first, but the show has made it seem like the hearing and smelling thing is an all the time deal whereas the eye color seemed like something different.

The almost punch was scary because it came out of nowhere. Scott has really been pretty even keeled this whole time. Also Scott apologized twice for the shove and the almost hit even though Stiles never did apologize for abandoning him in the woods. Still a dick.

Shirtless again.

All of these kids live in really nice houses. Which, like, is weird. Like, are we rural? Are we affluent suburb? What is the deal here?

Okay, creepy Derek who is clearly also a werewolf. Are you the biter in this scenario or just part of the pack?

Okay, what the fuck is Lydia’s deal? Like, do you just have no loyalty whatsoever? Every man and woman for themselves?

Was Stiles actually at the party totally chill or was that a hallucination of Scott’s? I can’t imagine the guy flailing earlier about werewolves and almost being punched just casually asking, “Yo, Scott, you good?”

Creepy Derek being creepier. Allison, girl, you better run.

Oh man, I feel so bad for Scott. This looks painful and terrifying.

Okay, Stiles gets points back again for going to check on Scott. But that does mean it was him at the party and not a hallucination, and that interaction still strikes me as weird.

Scott’s first thought being to have Stiles check on Allison even though he’s going through this painful, terrifying experience makes me feel things. 

Protection mode activated.

“She’s safe from you.”

Uh…bud? At the first sign of something wrong he left her and the only reason he’s out here is because you lured him with her jacket? Needlessly convoluted way of ‘helping’ does not instill confidence.

And then he attacks Scott. Great. A replay of the first night.

What. The. Fuck.

Did you luring him out there into a trap, asshole?

Ahh, lure him into a trap so that you can ‘save’ him. So you’re not just an asshole, but a manipulative asshole.

Is it really so bad, Scott? To be attacked and changed without your consent? To have no one ever believe you? To have people hunting you? To know that you can never be just a kid again?

The bite is a gift? A gift? Oh. Wow. Derek Hale, creepy stalker likes forcing things on people without their consent and then tells them that they should be grateful for it. Absolutely terrible garbage fire of a person (derogatory).

Okay, nope, I seriously hate this guy. Kick him in the balls, Scott.

Oh, hey, Stiles actually came back for Scott this time. Fine. That scene was kind of cute. And Stiles is clearly loyal. I guess he can stay, but he’s on thin ice.

Ugh, Scott who doesn’t want to lie, but won’t tell the truth is strangely endearing. Allison, I get you, girl.

Lol. Allison’s dad is the hunter, of course. 

So like, let’s think this through. Allison said her family moved around a lot, clearly tracking werewolf activity. So why Beacon Hills? The severed body being found and the wolf attack on Scott was literally the night before Allison showed up. So like, it had to be something else that pulled them there. I wonder what it was.
