& STILES.
❛ y’know what ?? i heard that running in zig-zags is a foolproof way to escape rabid assholes with power complexes !! ❜ despite not being aware of all that happens in his friend’s home, he is convinced of two things: one / there are medieval torture devices hidden SOMEWHERE amidst modern furniture. two / looking past the family’s charming pretense, the fraught tightness that burrows itself behind stiles’ ribcage whenever elliot surfaces from the house after days of not seeing him happens for a reason. he doesn’t trust sir termaine and company. ❛ — look, el, by the time we make it back he won’t even have the chance to fire up his guillotine. we’ll be fine. ❜ watching the blonde step away from the house, pink lips press together; he vaguely remembers conveniently forgetting to elaborate tonight’s plan knowing elliot might not have joined him otherwise. the alabaster male doesn’t intend to get the other in trouble, he’ll ensure he gets back without hitch, but elliot deserves some time away from the house if nothing else. ❛ we could do whatever it is that we were going to do now right now and fast if what we were gonna do was a fast activity in general, but it’s not. ❜ words are rambled intently with the hopes of sounding incoherent enough to delay potential fretting. he opens the passenger side of his jeep, hand gesturing towards the seat. ❛ ALRIGHT. your chariot awaits. ❜
❛ i’m pretty sure that only helps when they have a gun pointed to your head or something of the sort ?? then again i’m just a small town boy, what do i know ?? ❜ a part of elliot was surprised that stiles stuck around after all of those years, even after finding out how his stepfather was, but he was always grateful for the boy’s company. he didn’t know what he would have down if he had to go through all of that a l o n e. the blonde still worried about his friend from time to time, putting stiles’ needs before his own. he worried that the alabaster teen was taking too much on his plate. el didn’t think that he had to share the pain that he was going through and he definitely didn’t want to put the other in harm’s way. ❛ i know that he’s not the best man in the whole entire world, but what makes you think he has a guillotine ?? he’s much more civilized than that in a sense. ❜ cinderfella let out an amused chuckle as he finally tore his attention from the house and over to stiles. most of what he knew about the night was in general terminology, but deep down inside he was just glad about having some company that weren’t mice, no matter how fun they were to talk to. ❛ has anyone told you that you ramble quite often ?? it’s like i’m speaking to someone in tongues or something. ❜ nonetheless the blonde still bowed before stiles and as he got into the keep he made sure to give him his thanks. ❛ thank you my good sir, such a fine gentleman that i have on my hands this evening. ❜
