Because winning arguments makes people happy?

[ were u raised in a barn ]

[instincts]

but winning this one just means we both suck at shifting and thats bad for everyone

Plus the wolf who attacked Stiles that you wont tell me about.

[growling]

It won't happen again.

But yeah, sure, I'll give you the other thing. Never thought I'd be thankful for the weird horrorship having miles of abandoned and creepy floors, but I guess we'd be completely screwed without them. Is it just full moons?

[ Assuming no, but just making sure. Still not 500% sure she's from the same place as Derek. ]

[instincts]

It's supposed to be

Last month was bad.

[growling]

Tell me about it. But nobody got hurt, right? So it's fine. One more month down.

[instincts]

how long have you been taking it one month at a time and just trying to get through it

i don't want to just try to get through it every month

[ But Scott's gone—what else is she supposed to do? ]

[growling]

About five years. But I technically had one off for holiday.

[ ha ha. ]

How long have you been like this?

[instincts]

Uh.

Forever, I guess. But my first full moon was when I was 8.

And I turned into a coyote. All the way.

[growling]

I'm sorry did you just say you turned into a coyote

[instincts]

only for 8 years

[growling]

Oh ok that makes it completely normal then

you're a wereCOYOTE??

[instincts]

yes

[ check your wolf privilege, motherfucker. ]

but like 3 full moons now since i've been human again if that was yr question and it sucks

[growling]

[ thAT ISN'T EVEN A THING ]

Sorry, you mean you were a coyote for 8 years and you've only been human for a few weeks?

[ that..... might explain some things... ]

[instincts]

A few months.

[ wow big difference ok. ]

1/2

[growling]

[ oh yes sorry much better ]

I guess that makes sense.

[growling]

[ Because you're rude, get it. Which is kind of rude also, so in an attempt at bonding or something: ]

I was stuck as a wolf. Just for three months, but the adjustment afterwards was rough.

[instincts]

[ josh just fucking earned himself the time of day. ]

the worst part is always being cold.

and algebra

[growling]

[ Malia what are you. ]

Yeah, that algebra's pretty rough.

[ And after a short delay: ]

It's difficult to remember what you were like. What humans are like, generally. How to act.

But it's like riding a bike, right? It'll come back to you.

[instincts]

most the time I feel like I don't know where to start.

and then i just get annoyed because people are actingl ike i should know this but i don't and it makes me want to rip out their throats

[growling]

Well not actually ripping out throats is a pretty good start. Pat yourself on the back for that one.

[ Joke, but also 500% serious. He knows the feeling. ]

But seriously, I'm probably not the best person to give advice on this. So far the best fix I've found is to avoid people entirely.

[instincts]

is that why you only text people and dont let anyone near you on full moons

[growling]

I've tried it the other way. Letting people in, asking for help. Keeping people away from me until I fix it is the best option.

[ So yes, just with more dramatic phrasing. ]

[instincts]

you could have just said yes

[growling]

[ oh my god karen ]

Yes.

[instincts]

how long ago were you stuck as a wolf?
