Summary
Chris wants his dad. He wants his bed. But he can't have those yet, and he and Dad never really text because if Dad’s not working they’re usually together or one of them is too busy to text, so texting Dad feels weird, but Buck… He can text Buck.
do you think it was a good thing for Pandora to keep hope in the box?
The little dots pop up immediately, which Chris wasn’t expecting.
I’m not sure. I do know that it technically wasn’t a box, it was a pithos, which is like a big jar they used for storage. Box is a mistranslation, but it became so widely used that we all just roll with it now.
It’s a very classic Buck response. The dots keep going.
On that note, “hope” isn’t an exact translation either. Another way that people translate it is “deceptive expectation.” Hope isn’t necessarily deceptive, and we tend to use it in a positive way, so it’s maybe not the BEST word to use, but I guess in English we don’t have a better one for “deceptive expectation” and “hope” sounds pithier.
Deceptive expectation. Huh.

Summary
He has no idea what you're supposed to say when you find one of your...werewolf acquaintances, completely out of their mind, growling like they're about to see what your insides taste like. There's no handbook for this. Stiles is thinking that if he survives he might write one.

Summary
“What?” Alex asks, laughing in disbelief.
“Little David ran inside when we were out the back. He knows his way back to my apartment, but I go to the door and surprise, surprise, he is nowhere in sight. So I panic and then I hear a barking coming from your apartment and I come here and it seems like you have dognapped my dog,” he says it all in one breath and even David looks concerned for his owner there. The man crouches down and puts David on the floor, smoothing his fur.
Alex, doesn’t appreciate being accused of something he didn’t do and maybe it is because he’s been having a shitty day regardless, but he blows up as well.
“I am NOT a dognapper, your dog just seems to like me,” Alex protests, fuming at the audacity of this complete stranger. “Maybe you just need to look after your dog better and make sure he doesn’t run off.”
The blond gasps indignantly and covers his dog’s ears as if this conversation will potentially hurt David and Alex would find the whole thing comical if he wasn’t livid. “He was barking, so he obviously didn’t come in here willingly.”
OR
Alex finds a beagle in his apartment one day. His new neighbor accuses him of stealing his dog.

Summary
Everyone knows when you go back in time, you shouldn't step on an ant, just in case you accidentally kill your own grandparent or something. But what happens when you go back in time and, uh, accidentally interrupt the one event that apparently made the Grumpiest Alpha in Town into a ball of mindless manpain?
Well, if Marty McFly can do it, so can Stiles Stilinski. All he has to do is get Derek and Paige to fall in love before he gets pulled back to his own time. And before he makes anything worse. That's easy as pie, right? Right?
