    Summary

    Stiles reads through the report. The FBI knows a lot, but some of their information is inaccurate or outdated. Also, they don’t even know about kanimas or banshees. Once he’s done with the background information, he flips to the assignment brief.

    It’s a murder investigation. The prime suspect is a werewolf only five years older than Stiles, and he’s accused of killing a forty-year-old woman. The location of the crime? Stiles’s hometown, Beacon Hills. The report documents difficulties with interrogating the suspect because the werewolf is Deaf. He’s refusing to put anything in writing, even to communicate with the defense counsel provided to him. It’s clear why Stiles was selected for this job.

    “I’m not an interpreter,” he says as politely as possible.

    Summary

    There is a coyote who follows John Egan through the scrublands of New Mexico. A pale-eyed, pale-furred, washed-out shape against the desert night. Limbs too long and paws dexterous as it lopes just out of sight. Sometimes it stood upright, mouth lolling open wet and pink and full of teeth. Sometimes it is a man too, still furred and broken-limbed but with a maw that could almost form words and hips that narrowed delicately.

    It is never human, but sometimes it is a man.

    Summary

    “You’ll manage, Bucky,” Gale says before he can think better of it, and when John looks up at him with eyes wet and glistening, he wishes he could take it back. Maybe not just the cold, then.

    “I’ll manage?” He sounds level at least, hot drunk but no different to normal. A little edge, a little rasp.

    “Without ‘im. I know it’ll be—But you’ll manage.” John’s answering scoff has a meanness in it, and he does look down again, but thankfully he doesn’t stop walking.

    “I’ll manage. Yeah, I’ll manage. I’ll manage without him, because I managed before, that right?”

    “That’s right.” Gale’s murmuring again, and you don’t grow up in Wyoming without learning how to soothe a horse, and somehow that’s the voice he’s using right now. Tempted, even, to soothe like he would a horse: hand rubbed broad along John’s flank, cupping his neck like he’d cupped Gale in the pub, rubbing solid and firm. Might quiet those jitters, still jittering even though John’s trudging along with his sight on the ground, trying to sniff away his wet eyes.

    In the aftermath of Curtis' death, Bucky struggles to grieve. Gale struggles to help him.

    Summary

    Slowly his senses came back to him. He felt himself breathing fast, too fast, and tried to force it to return to a normal pattern. His hearing returned slowly, enough to hear Robin’s panicked voice.

    “…Steve! Steve, talk to me! Steve! Steve, are you ok? For god’s sake, Steve!”

    --------

    Dustin is faced with a difficult choice. When he makes it, he can't help but feel like he's sentenced Steve to death.

    The reality is much worse.

    Stranded far from home with no way back, Steve must work with everything he has to survive and stop an ever-growing threat to a home made unrecognisable by the aftermath of tragedy.

    Starts midway through season 3, major spoilers for the whole show up to then. Written prior to Season 4. Trigger warnings in individual chapters. NOW COMPLETE!
