Summary
"So this is what Stiles does. He lies in Scott’s bed and waits for Melissa to say she’s found someone to get it out of him, to cure him of the wrongness and the bad, and he dreams.
God, he dreams.
He dreams of fire and swollen bellies and that scene in Alien, of giving birth to jackals through his urethra, the whole horrific nine yards. His head is a terrible place to be, he can’t imagine his stomach is much better, why anyone would want to put a thing inside of it."

Summary
It’s after his third session with his new therapist in Leeds that Robert sees her. He’d sat in Vic’s car for 30 minutes after the session ended, staring into space and waiting for his brain and heart to stop racing. For his hands to stop shaking. Of course that puts him right in the middle of rush hour traffic, a river of immovable vehicles in front of him.
He’s been sat in the one spot for nearly 5 minutes when he finally turns to look out of the passenger side window instead of staring at the brake lights of the car in front of him, and there she is.
Sarah looks… haggard. It’s not a word he’d normally use for his 20-year old niece, for any 20-year old really, but it fits. She looks like she’s been put through the ringer, exhausted and sad, and sweaty in the late summer heat. She also looks like she’d rather stick pins in her eyes than talk to anyone, and Robert’s ready to look away, pretend he hadn’t seen her for both of their sakes.
In which Sarah Sugden gets therapy, tiktok famous, and her uncles back together.

Summary
Lydia looks over her shoulder to look at Derek Hale again, then back to him. “He’s an asshole, you know.”
“You think I don’t know that?” Stiles is confused, furrowing his brow. “I’ve only spent the last ten years of my life fighting with him.”
“Yeah, but, I mean, he’s an asshole,” she draws the word out nice and long, as if it takes on a different meaning depending on exactly how she says it. “No one who has ever dated or hooked up with that guy has ever had anything nice to say about him after the fact.”
“What do I care about that?”
She looks at him. It’s that all-knowing, all-seeing gaze, like the eye of Mordor. Stiles feels tiny under its wrath, so he looks away and stares down at his beer can, traces the design with his thumb. “I know you, Stiles Stilinski.”
“Not really. We only dated for, like, five months.”
With a snort, totally uncharacteristic of her and something she would never do sober, she rolls her eyes. “Gee, I wonder why.”

Summary
If the only reason he isn’t rotting in the ruins of a department store in Encino is because of the sense of duty of a rookie he’s tormented from the moment they met, then Tommy shouldn’t be here right now.
Statistically, karmically, cosmically, like he’s always known in the back of his mind, Tommy was never supposed to make it out of that mall. An insignificant man dying in an insignificant place—his fate finally unfurled. Any other American man burned and buried in the belly of any other American strip mall, the two of them indiscernible archetypes of their kind.

Tommy’s life has been a horror movie, but loving Evan is like a romantic comedy.
