[Stiles sits with his back to the wall in a cell in Zero, scowl etched onto his features. He can hear Jackson's heart beating from across the hall and he wishes he'd ripped it out of his chest so at least he'd have some peace and quiet while he's stuck down here. Being alone would be better than being stuck in the same vicinity as Jackson Whittemore.

He shuts his eyes and covers his ears with his hands, forcing himself to take slow, deep breaths. He doesn't know exactly how containment down here works, but he knows that short of someone letting him out, he's trapped for now.

It's fine. He'll deal. He always does. He's not thrilled about it, because there are things he could be doing if he wasn't locked in a freaking jail cell.

He opens his eyes again when he hears the distant echo of footsteps approaching -- but whether they're approaching his cell or Jackson's, or if someone else is being locked up -- that he's not sure about yet.

So he stares at the bars ahead, eyes dark and narrow. Waiting.]

[He's never done well with boredom. After several hours of sitting in relative silence, he picks up his comm. The boredom is as evident in his tone as the sarcastic taunting.]

I have to say that if this is the worst you people can do for punishment, I'm severely disappointed. No wonder our barge graduates more people than yours. You don't even have an ounce of creativity.

The whole place is boring.

How bad is it down there anyway?

[She senses it in him, an answer from his wolf. She doesn't reach for the power in it, though, but instead shifts closer to the door when she sits down, resting her head against the bars...wishing for all the world she could reach out and touch him, complete that connection.

His question brings her up short, but after a moment she nods, the tiniest smile touching her lips.]


I did...you did, too, didn't you? You...you saw. [What their own Scott could have been, could still be if he could be reached.]

[It's brief, but Allison's nose twitches at the whiff of longing that drifts across the cell. It's touched with sorrow, and it's a sorrow Allison understands.

She scoots closer to the door, hands wrapped around the bars. Her forehead is digging into the bars by her face, but she doesn't relent, she can't. Everything in her is being pulled towards him like a magnet...the need to touch, to soothe, to comfort. Her eyes are wide with the tenuous hope that's clenching in her chest because Stiles knows. He knows, and he wants Scott back.]


Stiles, he's not gone. The Scott we know, we can have him back. Both of us, we just have to work together. To remind him that the man we met is still a part of him.

[She pauses, her features softening with the memory of kissing him, that split second when he hesitated, softened...]

I know he's in there. I've seen it...and whatever you may think of me, nothing would make me happier than to give him back to you.

[She doesn't just see him shift closer, she can feel it like a rope being pulled, drawing him nearer. It makes her heart race and, at the same time, a tension in her shoulders start to ease.

She only just hears his confession. The smile that comes threatens to split her face, breaks her heart in the best way possible...but she says nothing. It's enough that he's said it out loud...]


I kissed him. The first day, I met with him, and I kissed him...and just for a second, for one second...he let me.

[She sighs, frowning a little as she looks down herself.]

Then he tried to choke me out and scare me. Told me he didn't want me when I said I still loved him. But it wasn't true, I could smell it. That part of him, the one we love? It's still there, and he's terrified of it.

We just have to show him he doesn't have to be afraid.

[ Disbelief twisted his eyebrows. Because what did London have to do with anything? ]

So are you going to shut up or not?

No. [She doesn't get real satisfaction out of anger, she thinks as she slows down. tries to make herself really heard instead of a target for him. It just doesn't take as much work to be angry, to hate most of the people here even as their better versions.] It's just easy.

[Allison's smile grows fonder at the question, even as her chest tightens with a small swell of joy that makes her forget how uncomfortable this separation is for a moment, because they aren't separate in that moment.

She's reaching him. She's getting through to him, and it feels wonderful.]


We don't lie to him, and we don't give up on him. He can't escape from the truth, and if we stick with him, prove that we care, he won't want to. And trust me, it does work.

[Her smile grows, and with a deep breath, she reaches through the bars, extending a hand towards him, inviting him closer.]

After all...we've been talking a whole five minutes without arguing.

Just to talk.

[ it's a little strange seeing Stiles like this, or- rather, seeing this version of Stiles right in front of her. he really does look the same, but that's not the shocking part - it's that even his identical features don't make up for the fact that he moves differently, even sounds different. this isn't just Stiles-In-A-Bad-Mood, it's someone else entirely. she's taking her time getting used to that. her hand moves to rest on her hip, the waterbottle still held in the other, now down at her side ]

I know you're not him, but Stiles and I are friends here. And I know you're not him, but I'm thinking - I'm hoping - that maybe if we just take a second to talk and figure each other out, things don't have to be different, with us. Just until we're all back where we belong.

It's not the worst.

It's just one of the standards.
