Can you imagine how great teen wolf would have been if it followed Boyd and Derek's pack instead of scott? And Stiles was the nosy kid who figured out something was going on and found out the secret? I could even see Boyd becoming a true alpha... He was just a more interesting character and was acted significantly better. We could have had it alllllllllll!

oh maan that’d be awesome ?? I wouldn’t even mind Scott hanging around, it’s not like Scott never had any potential. But they just turn everything into ‘me against the world ‘ bs these days and I’ve never seen that make a good show tbh. We don’t even need a true alpha at all, we need a damn team. A pack.

And Braeden as main? Wrangling wayward werewolves with sarcasm and lady badassery!

Yes, Braeden, too! Boyd, Braeden and Danny as the new trio! But under the condition that she won’t be ruined with a stupid relationship again. no relationships at all, how about that! They’ll be forced to create actual, real, fleshed out friendships!

How about Danny for main instead? ;) // Or Vernon Boyd :))

that’d be just as good :))

You know what's funny, they (fans,actors,writers,....) keep saying that Derek was a bad alpha, and that Scott is a good alpha, yet somehow Derek has trained all of betas (including Jackson) how to control their werewolf side at all time & on full moon, and Scott who has a co-alpha (stile) still has to hit his beta to trigger it and has to tie him to a tree on a full moon.

Derek trained Jackson?

Other than that I agree though. Derek did what he could, he even tried to help Scott when he was literally resenting him, and in the meanwhile Scott can’t even deal with one Beta properly and resents him for loosing the control he never taught him.

Imagine Derek would’ve acted like Scott, after Boyd and Cora nearly killed him in the basement of the school. People would’ve ripped him apart. Not one person judged them because we knew they weren’t in control.

But when Scott makes it seem like he lets Liams girlfriend die cause he couldn’t care less instead of taking a minute to explain and give him some fucking comfort, there is a supermoon and we have a kid with IED that was never properly trained control, it’s suddenly unforgivable? Fuck that.

I don't think I'll get over it not being okay with Scott for Stiles to kill someone despite Scott working with the Alpha twins in a previous season AFTER the twins killed Boyd. I get that it was primarily an issue of shitty writing and lack of continuity in Scott's characterization, but even Scott stans meta that Stiles was an awful person for killing Donovan and "attacking Scott" -- BUT Scott working with the twins was A-OK????? Even after they murdered Boyd??? (and Erica for that matter).

UGH I’ll just never liked the twins at all. Like people will argue that they are abuse victims and redeemed themselves or something but for me there was never enough on-screen development to ever get to like them. I hated that Lydia kept screwing Aidan despite not wanting to be with the ‘bad guys’. They literally watched them murder Boyd and using Derek for it. Even if I had to work with them to survive, I'd make sure to give them side eye and not forgive them. You know, kinda like Stiles did with Theo?

But hey, Scott  has a thing for working with villains. Maybe cause it’s easier if you can get other peoples hands bloody?

The break between s2 and s3 was their summer break between sophomore and junior year. (Between s4 and s5 is junior/senior.) Scott was in summer school as part of the "be a better Scott McCall program" and was too busy not thinking about Allison to think about anyone else. HOWEVER, we know Stiles was aware of it, because he's the one who pointed out the missing posters, and there is a lot of speculation that he helped Derek and Isaac look for them (that JD kinda confirmed).

aah alright! That makes sense. So I’m not really blaming Scott for not knowing, I’m just sideeyeing him a little. But then again maybe the rest just didn’t want to involve him so he could sort out his life. Too bad it didn’t work huh.

Remember in the library when the book cases fall down and I the kanima scratches Erica so she has a seizure and Scott and stiles are by her side but all of a sudden Scott runs to Allison and has a 10 minute chat while Erica is convulsing in stiles's arms?

Faintly. Not much he could’ve done about that to be fair though. And like I said, they were allies at best at that point. You could say Scott should’ve known better and called an ambulance or something but then again they were in a wrecked library and Erica is a werewolf now so that would’ve been hard to explain. And not like any of the others did something.

What I was just wondering about, between S2 and 3 was it school holidays? Cause it seems a bit odd otherwise that Scott didn’t notice Erica and Boyd being gone? I remember them looking at the missing person report things in school but can’t remember if they were aware of it or not? Ugh need to rewatch this at some point.
