When: August 5th ( evening )
Rating: R? Maybe? He's sixteen so who knows what's going to come out of his mouth.
Characters: Stilinski Jr. & you !
Summary: Sometimes you just have to get really, really wasted to deal with your teenage angst.

[ There are a lot of things you can get in the Underground if you just ask. Stiles has sheer dumb courage on his side ( and a winning personality ) and it's not that hard to walk out with a brand spanking new fake id. Objectively he knows he should have told Scott but he half figures his bestie will be busy making sure his mom settles in and anyway, the memory up on the network still stings.

So he tries the places they don't recognize him, carts his bottle in a backpack to the quietest part of Xanadu and gets steadily drunker. It's not hard to do. He's not really a big drinker beyond the occasional pilfered bottle of his dad's not insignificant collection. And it's not long before he's using his bag as a pillow and humming some idle pop song as he's sprawled across the grass.

He feels better, that's a plus, right? ]

It'd be really hard to be worse than Derek, he's a jerk like ninety percent of the time.

[ AND ALSO SUPER HOT AND AWESOME BUT. ]

[hischair]

Why do you hang out with him?

[studmuffin]

Because he is hot.

[ No, not really. ] He's from. Beacon Hills. [ An arm flail. ] Like me. We're from the same place. We know each other.

[hischair]

Mm. [ Humming in dissatisfaction, he gives him a nudge and pulls him over to the exit of Xanadu where his motorbike's waiting. ] Don't let him be too much of a jerk, is all I'm saying.

Think you can hold onto me while I drive us back? I don't want a Stiles-shaped smear on the ground, we can walk.

[studmuffin]

Woah.

[ Sorry Derek, he gets to ride Jim Kirk's bike by hanging on to the man himself. His life is amazing. ] Yeah, yeah. I'll be totally fine.

[hischair]

You hold on tight, understand? I won't go too fast.

[ And no, there are no helmets. Reckless coolkids only. Straddling the bike, he revs it up and tilts it to give Stiles the chance to hop on. ]

Arms around my waist, hold onto my coat and your own wrist in a cross-over.

[studmuffin]

[ IT IS A GOOD THING JIM IS NOT A WEREWOLF because the way Stiles smells right now is complicated and a little bit too bubbly. But he does as told and it's a little strange but he feels safe. ]

This is so cool.

[hischair]

[ The way Stiles smells right now is something Jim is politely ignoring all around, wolfiness or not. Poor kid. Pulling out into the road he keeps the speed fair and steady, nothing that should judder that booze to the surface as he makes his way home with one intoxicated passenger in tow. ]

Bones' truck would be safe, but far less easy to park.

[studmuffin]

Not as awesome either.

[ For the moment he's just glad he met Jim. Because beneath that nerdy glory there's something cool about having a figure like that in the City. ] Where'd you get this one?

[hischair]

From a garage, patched it up myself. It wasn't expensive. Where'd you get your ... jeep, was it?

[ Vroom-vroom get outta the waaay, assholes. ]

[studmuffin]

I traded it. [ Maybe he could get a bike ... nah, his dad would kill him. Even out of the City. ] I mean with the deities? It's my jeep from back home. It was my parent's first car. My dad drives the patrol car from the station so he let me have the jeep.

[hischair]

Wish I could trade for my ship, they'd probably want half my damn soul though. [ Not that he ... wouldn't try. ] What did you give them?

[studmuffin]

[ ... Oops. This is so making his relationship seem so healthy. ]

Two weeks of being magically tied to Derek. Every time he got too far from me I got physically pulled right back beside him.

[hischair]

That doesn't sound so bad. [ He could totally have done that. Most likely. ] Was it?

[studmuffin]

He ran through the woods to see what would happen. I had bruises everywhere.

[hischair]

... You need some new friends.

[studmuffin]

I'll get right on that.
