THEY'RE SO FREAKING BAD*SS I SWEAR!!
Okay, I know that whatever-the-f*ck-her-name-is still got the upper hand with the freaking wolfsbane (I hate wolfsbane. I really hate it. Why can it be used in so many forms?? WHY?!), but that was SO F*CKING BAD*SS I CANNOT WITH THIS PACK!!
I mean, even when she DID get the upper hand, and Scott and Malia were struggling against the wolfsbane, Scott looked her dead in the eyes, watched her every move, and still had enough confidence to say "you don't know where he is, either", and I just LOVE THAT.
And LEADING UP TO THAT!
I mean, the amount of utter strength and confidence in:
"Stiles. Take 10 off the table."
I MEAN COME ON!
That boy just took out one of the bodyguards, reached down for the walkie talkie, and talked DIRECTLY TO his best friend that was SITTING IN THE ROOM with the villain with NO fear and NO qualms, and Stiles just freaking reached over and removed the money.
Like.
Obviously our pack is slightly underestimating these hunters, because they don't really know what they're up against, but I guarantee you, the hunters don't know what they're up against either.
And then you add to that Kira and Malia like..
The way they were just watching, and then they both sprung into action, Kira with the f*cking NUNCHUCKS, Malia with her werewolf strength and acrobatics I just...
ALSO!!
WHILE I'M HERE!!
I'm sorry.
I am.
But THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN KIRA AND MALIA I CANNOT!!!
I've been racking my brain, and I don't think I have EVER so IMMEDIATELY shipped someone THIS INTENSELY, but OMG, the CHEMISTRY.
I love Scira. With all of my heart. And I know that ship goes canon at some point and I'm totally happy about that.
And I know Stalia does officially happen at some point, and I know Scalia (don't ask me why Scott and Kira would ever break up, but ANYWAYS) is a thing also, so I know there is absolutely no way I get Malira canonically, and I probably won't even get that many more Malira moments throughout the rest of the show.
But...
HOLY F*CK THOSE TWO ARE SO GAY FOR EACH OTHER!!!
I MEAN!!
THE DANCING!!!
THE WAY MALIA SAYS "ready?" IN KIRA'S EAR!
THE WAY THEY NOD AT EACH OTHER AND SPIN AND TAKE DOWN THEIR RESPECTIVE ENEMIES I MEAN--
PLEASE TELL ME YOU GUYS SEE THIS!
Like, obviously you do, because there's a ship name for it, but PLEASE TELL ME THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO SHIP THIS AS HARD AS I DO!
THIS IMMEDIATE NEED TO SHIP TWO CHARACTERS HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE PLEASE TELL ME I'M NOT ALONE!!
OH MY GOD MALIRA MY BELOVED!!!
I HOPE WE GET MORE SCENES OF THEM TOGETHER BECAUSE AHHHHHHHHHHH!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
*clears throat*
Anyways...
This pack may not have the upper hand right now, but they're freaking amazing, and so freaking bad*ss, and they have each other, so I have faith they'll get out of this.
And once I'm done screaming about Malira, I'm gonna watch them do exactly that.
Also, as a very brief aside, we also have to give credit to the way Stiles described Derek in an effort to get her to give him up. Love this man. XD <3
Anyways MALIRA MY BELOVED!! <3 <3
(Okay let's be honest, I will never stop screaming about Malira, because LOOK AT THEM THEY'RE PERFECT!! <3 <3 <3 <3)
Update: Scott literally said "let's go all the way to Mexico to save someone that may or may not be dead" and his pack said "okay" like it was no big deal and THIS is why the McCall pack is superior to any other pack because NO ONE could EVER have as much loyalty as they do. <3 <3

I don't know who needs to hear this, but as a creator -
I am fine with "the audience" -
downloading my fics
printing my fics
copy/pasting or screenshotting my fics
sharing your saved copy of my fics with anyone else who might want them in the unlikely but never impossible case that my fics are no longer available on ao3
making a book of my fic(s) and running your fingers across the pages while lovingly whispering my precioussss
doing these things with anything I create for fandom, such as meta, headcanons, au nonsense like 'texts from the brodinsons,' etc
I am not fine with "the audience"
doing any of the above with the purpose/intent of plagiarizing my work or passing it off as their own in any capacity
feeding my work into ai for any reason whatsoever
Save the fandom things. Preserve the fandom things. Respect the fandom things.
Enjoy the fandom things.

i keep thinking about hobbies and how i often spill over myself to pick up new ones. i have adhd, i end up trying something for like a month and then just getting far enough in it that i move on, satisfied.
and that should be fine; but it's never fine.
i am a pretty decent artist; but i can't just make art for my dnd campaign, i should be selling dnd maps and character designs and scene setting pieces. i can't just make my friends matching earrings, i need to get an etsy and ship them internationally and take bulk orders. i make pretty good props and decorations and use them to throw my friends parties - but i should be running a party planning business and start taking paying clients and networking and putting my skills to actual use.
for some reason, i never figured out the specifics of pottery. it was a fun class and i enjoyed myself - and still, i'm embarrassed, years later, that i put in all that useless effort. everything i make has to be stunning. stellar. i should have applied myself more. maybe i'm too lazy. maybe i'm broken and selfish and needy. actually creative people would have kept going; they would be bettering themselves at every possible opportunity.
we find ourselves in this trap, even accidentally: we need to commodify our time, because it is a commodity. if we spend our efforts and our time not earning, isn't that the same thing as burning free money? and god forbid you ever take up a hobby that ends up being more expensive than you thought. you sit in your car and you look at the receipt and in your head you hear a conversation that isn't even happening - your mom or your friend or your partner all saying oh great. not this shit again. it's always something with you, and it never actually means anything.
i have realized this horrible thing, recently - i'll get excited to start a project, pick up a new hobby. and then i just... stop myself. i start thinking about the amount of time it will take, and how it'll look in my monthly budget. what if i can't even produce a good enough final product. sure, it's exciting to think about how i could make my friend her own custom dice. but i'm just polluting the earth if i don't get it right. better not bother. better not try.
restless, i get caught in the negative space. the feeling that oh god, i want to create. and that horrible sense - yeah, but i don't have the time to just put to waste.

If you ask like that, without any witty comment, then I will end up feeling sorry for you, little mouse.
Is there anything else I can get you before I come over to hold you?

You want a witty comeback right now?

the one positive but also incredibly painful thing about buddie not happening directly after the shooting arc is that now we might get eddie telling buck that he loves him that he's in love with him and when buck asks how long he's known eddie will tell him that he's known for years that he ironically figured it out as he was lying there in a puddle of his own blood thinking he was going to die and all he could do all he wanted to do was reach out for buck one last time and then he didn't die and life moved on and he kept this newfound realization hidden away because it felt so momentous and fragile all at the same time and years passed and then buck came out and then eddie came out too and that's not a guarantee for anything but they're both here now and buck's been giving him these looks and fleeting touches and it's all felt so soft and safe that all eddie can do is reach out again and when the tips of his fingers finally touches the warm smooth skin on buck's arm after so many years of almost but quite not there the confession all but falls from eddie's lips onto buck's over and over and over again
