[ He almost ignores it, but he knows Derek's doing him a favor and now that the wolf's at bay and everything's gone to hell, Josh is just tired. He doesn't even have it in him to be spiteful. Besides, he's been avoiding everyone already, so it's not like it's a difficult order to follow. ]
If I talk to them I'll let them know. Something tells me they'll be laying low for a while.
[ Friends, HA. But trying to cover up a murder generally leads to low profiles. Hopefully. And there's a delay before the next part, because Josh doesn't forgive easily - but when the anger's not clouding his judgement he can't pretend he doesn't understand that Derek's trying, that he wants to protect people even if his werewolf methods suck.

Do you need help?

Are you offering?

Don't worry, it's nothing personal. I'd just rather avoid werewolf-hunter-pocalypse on board.

Don't give her a target.
If she comes at me, it'll be easy.
[ and minimalize collateral damage. ]

Just let me know if it gets complicated.
