Room 222 and Beyond, Sunday Evening

So, here it was. The night of the full moon. The first one since Jackson's transition from kanima into werewolf. And it was going to be fine. Despite what Stiles had said, and despite what Jack had said, and despite whatever it was that had made Jim decide to bail on the room for the night. He was going to be fine. He was going to show them all that he was better than just losing control again. Super moon be damned. He was better. Because he had to be.

Right?

Okay, so, he was pacing around the room and still weighing his options. There was still good time to go out into the preserve, like Jack had said. Just in case. Or he could still just stay here. It could be just fine. He was strong. He was stronger than this. Who wanted to wake up God knows where the next morning, anyway?

... But what if?

He kept pacing.

[ooc: Omg my bb's first full moon. Post is for that poor guy Stilinski who always gets to deal with bb werewolves, and up early 'cause timezones. Wolfy bits NFB, please.]

You know, after realizing an alpha pack existed Stiles was almost glad to be dealing with betas right now. Almost.

Stiles didn't bother knocking because he probably could be heard and smelled from down the hall. He just hoped that his natural Stilesy musk covered up the fact he was carrying crushed up wolfsbane in his pocket for safety. Thanks to Lydia for that tip.

"Hey, Jackson?"

Jackson stopped pacing, though he didn't come to the door when he could just stay where he was and bark, "What?"

Because surely that would give off the impression he had everything under control.
robinonadderall: ([pos] don't be an asshole)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 03:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Stiles rolled his eyes. Typical. "Jackson, come on, you can't stay in the dorms tonight. You know that."
nomoresportscars: ([neg] Cannot ignore this.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 03:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Jackson huffed, annoyed, and stalked to the door. Had to unlock it before yanking it open – see, at least he'd made kind of an effort to at least slow the wolf down!

"Stiles. Leave me alone."
robinonadderall: ([pos] be optimistic what no)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"When have I ever left anybody alone?" Never, that's when. "Especially when people could get hurt. This is serious, Jackson, you can't handle your first full moon on your own."
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] Ten seconds to explain.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, so everyone keeps saying." And he was coming around to that idea, too. But he needed a little while to accept it. "As if any of you know me."

They probably knew that he'd been uncontrollable murder weapon just a while ago, though. And that the first full moon was hard for everyone.

He knew the first thing and was starting to accept the second.
robinonadderall: ([pos] this is why i'm right)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Dude, I've known you since elementary school. I think that counts for something," Stiles said. "I know you hate asking for help because you're a stubborn overachiever, but nobody is going to think any less of you if you ask for help in this instance."

"They will, however, probably think less of you if you wrecked the dorms once the moon comes up."
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] Shut up right now.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Jackson glared at him. How dare he allude to his major character flaws that were plain as day to anyone with half a brain. How dare he.

His jaw was looking pretty tight and his shoulders pretty tense, as he let go of an annoyed breath. "So, what do you suggest I do instead? Huh?"
robinonadderall: ([pos] let's hold on here)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"We get out of the dorms," Stiles said. "And we go somewhere where I can put you in a ring of mountain ash and you can wait out the moon without hurting anyone."

And if worse comes to worse, he'd get wolfsbane in the face to stop him from doing anything stupid. Stiles couldn't say he hated that idea.
nomoresportscars: ([neg] Glower.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Jackson would, but that was a given.

He kept glaring, and for a moment it looked like he was going to slam the door in Stiles' face and be done with it. But no. "Fine." The fear won out. He reached out, grabbed his keys. "Fine. Whatever. Let's go."
robinonadderall: ([pos] don't get sassy with me)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Stiles looked visibly relieved, feeling like the hard part of this was done. Of course he hadn't mentioned the whole part about Jack and Derek being involved yet.

"Thanks," Stiles said. "I promise you this is the right decision. You're already better off than Scott was on his first full moon."
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] Listening in.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 05:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"Of course I am," Jackson said as he moved out into the hallway, slamming the door behind himself. "McCall's an idiot."

Except for how he'd kind of saved the day with the Gerard thing. But whatever.
robinonadderall: ([pos] i know stuff)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"A lot of the time, yeah," Stiles agreed as he started walking down the hall. "He's gotten better though. Like, way better. Actually Beacon Hills has turned into some Twilight Zone of responsible people in the last few months I've been away. You're in London, apparently."

"...heh, American werewolf in London, I just got why that was funny."
nomoresportscars: ([neu- lydia] Conversation.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Jackson did not look amused, but that was probably a given. He was just feeling pretty on edge in general. Fun for someone like him who was high strung at the best of times.

"London," he repeated, as he walked. "Really."
robinonadderall: ([pos] whatcha want)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Meanwhile Stiles was nervous enough about all this that he immediately turned to babbling. "That's what I heard. You're not the only person who went on a European getaway---Allison spent all summer in France, but she's back in town now."
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] Well that was a timewaster.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Well good for her," Jackson drawled. "She's still in Beacon Hills – my Beacon Hills – last I heard."

There was actually someone he wanted to ask about. But didn't.
robinonadderall: ([pos] dealwithit.gif)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
"I think her and her dad needed to get away from awhile. Beacon Hills hasn't exactly been good to the Argents. Though most of the time they brought that on themselves." Then, figuring Jackson might be curious, added, "Everybody else is fine, from what I could see."

Fine for Beacon Hills, anyway. Meaning still breathing.
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] Uh I do not think so.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
"Good," Jackson said. Even though he was well aware of their hometowns idea of 'fine' was along the lines of Fandom's idea of 'normal'. Meaning it was still closer to the other end of the scale for just about any other town.

He was starting to go down stairs about two at a time, now.
robinonadderall: ([neg] do what now?)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Stiles couldn't really do that without killing himself, but he trailed behind Jackson as quickly as he could. "How are you feeling, by the way?"

He hoped the super moon wouldn't turn people into super werewolves. Hopefully it just took some weird supernatural fisting to make that happen. Yes, he heard about the twins.
nomoresportscars: ([neg] Has a soul.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 06:13 pm (UTC)(link)
"Fine."

But considering what had just been said in the narrative about what that word meant for people from their town...

He was looking more tense and agitates by the minute.
robinonadderall: (Default)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
"Good." Stiles didn't necessarily believe that but Jackson was forming words and not growling. That was something. "Just give me heads up if you feel like you want to rip my face off. Moreso than usual."
nomoresportscars: ([neg] Do not touch me.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
The last bit of that statement was tragicallt necessary. Jackson's glare was still pretty mild, though.

"I'll try." Reassuring, wasn't it? "Let's just get out of here."
robinonadderall: (* [pos] calm for once)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
"Totally agree with that plan, dude." Luckily they were almost out of the dorms. Once they were safely outside he would casually mention the Derek thing. "Were you taught anything about the whole anchor thing before you left Beacon Hills?"
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] You fell on your head.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
The glare turned blank.

"Anchor thing?"

Maybe he shouldn't have ignored all those calls from Scott. Just a thought.
robinonadderall: ([pos] let's hold on here)

[personal profile] robinonadderall 2013-06-23 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah, your anchor. It's something that'll remind you of your human side during the full moon," Stiles said. "For Scott it's Allison, for Derek I assume it's a sale on tight jeans at Macy's. Once you find yours we won't have to do this every full moon."
nomoresportscars: ([neu-] You suck.)

[personal profile] nomoresportscars 2013-06-23 07:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Jackson immediately thought he knew what his anchor would be, since it came to him instantly. The same thing that had pulled him out of the haze right before he'd accepted death.

He wasn't going to share that.

And it was just as well, because that was about when they got outside.
