teen wolf 2.04

"So did you find anything on the tape."

Danny sucks in a deep breath. It had taken him nearly twenty-four hours to figure out a way to say this, but with Jackson's eyes wide and hopeful like that all the tactful phrases he'd worked on flew out the window. "You're gonna need to sit down."

"Just tell me, Danny. Did you find anything?"

Just do it, just do it, just say it.

"Yeah. Someone climbed into the window and gave you a blow job."

"What?" Jackson head cocks to the side and shakes like there's pool water stuck in his ear. "Danny. What the fuck?."

"You ask me to look at the video and I do and there's twenty minutes of footage cut from the card but not from the camera and. Some guy climbed in through the window and sucked you off, man."

Jackson's skin pales. "What?"

"You ready to sit down now?"

"Yeah. Yeah." Jackson's arms shake, hands, fingers, lips, everything as he slides onto the bench.

"Good, because there's more."

"There's more?"

"Yeah." Danny licks his lips. "I think it was Stiles' cousin. You know," he adds when Jackson stares at him blankly. "Miguel."

Jackson's face goes blank to horrified white, and then pink. "Are you sure?"

Careful to keep all thoughts of how many times he watched the clip out of his mind, Danny meets Jackson's gaze steadily. "I'm very sure. I guess. I guess you really are everyone's type."

/end zing!

and then, you know. it's all a mistake, derek was just biting him again, there is a plot, etc, etc, fun times for all!

my intense feels for this show are most definitely driving me crazy right now. i want to weigh in on things going on, but i can't because it's mtv's teen wolf. of course the storytelling is drivel! of course the characters deserve better! of course everything is hamfisted into 41 minutes with no regards to what i need!

the good:

i am pretty much loving derek's struggle to do the right thing by any means necessary if only because his slow descent into adulthood is highlighted by muscle tees and and manhandling everyone.

team fail!pack is kind of really adorable. erica, you huss, doin' what the world is desperate to do. issac! well, derek was really horrible to him. boyd! i hate that fandom will ignore you! just know that i fist pumped with you bro! i fist pumped with you!

jackson. just, yeah. he's suffering from a massive lack of screen time but it's all gold! why yes, you are everyone's type.

danny! with the speaking more than once! what?

allison & scott? stop it! just. stop being kind of adorable and getting me to like you what is life!

coach makes me laugh.

the bad(ass)

stiles! he's such a do-right boy. he tries so damn hard. and i love that he gets a chance to succeed when he does.

the ugly

i literally tripped over all the redherrings, clues, mcguffins, and jenkies the show threw at us. show! there's showing, there's telling, and there's force-feeding.

in the mean time, can everyone get a very special episode already. i am going through jackson withdrawals!

Girl I'm on a train filled to the brim with attractive businessmen. And I'm laughing so hard that I'm crying. You end me. I Love you. That's all.

R.O.F.L. too..much!! i laughed at that Jackson/Danny scene so hard. i was just like, really Jackson, i mean yes, you're stupidly pretty, but why is Danny friends with you again? OMG Derek in those muscle shirts!!! he gets hotter every single episode. i'm not gonna lie, the Derek/Stiles show, i.e. every time their characters interact with each other, makes me so retardedly happy, it's ridiculous. Stiles is just too damn funny.

btw...Derek is woefully misunderstood. his entire family is dead guys, killed by his crush/hot fling, and he's all alone. and then the wolf he tries to help (Scott) continually rejects him at all turns, and the Argents brought in reinforcements, further highlighting just how little support he himself has. he is very adamantly scrambling to figure out how to solve all of these problems, including the one of his loneliness. it's ok bb. i'd join your pack.

anything to make the day brighter! i have so many ridiculous feels with teen wolf. it frustrates me like nothing else, except for possibly the euros right now. i'm so jittery/excited that i literally can't type my thoughts out about everything.

he is so! misunderstood! what is worse is that he's misunderstanding himself, his pack, and the situation surround them right now. it is so dangerous right now and he's literally spent most of his life alone at this point. he doesn't know how to lead and he doesn't know how to family. verbing the word to encompass the everything it entails! but if derek's character journey puts him in more sleeveless shirts i am all for it!

trust me, you have. that would have been a brilliant scene indeed.

also, Danny needs more lines. and more screen time. more screen time with more lines? ... and I think a reunion with Miguel is in dear order.

also, Derek manhandling Isaac. in this white piece of 'clothing'. with all of these cuts showing his eyes and the pulsing vein on his neck. ... I love this show. it just keeps on giving. [also, the first time around when I watched this scene this morning, I misunderstood what Derek's saying to Eerieca, thinking that HE was the one having someone else in mind for himself - I was a little sad when I realized that I was wrong tbh.]

and the coach is probably and secretly my favourite person on the show. just. cupcake. he's my special cupcake.
