[A short while after his conversation with Bucky, Stiles takes stock of all the coats, hats, gloves and scarves that are all over his floor thanks to The Admiral. It takes him an hour and a half to sort everything by size, then color, draping some of the piles on his bed, some on his desk, and some that have no other place to go but the floor. There's not much of a walkway, but it's big enough that kids can come in and get what they need.

After that's done, he drops down in his desk chair and turns on the camera, arching his eyebrows.]

I've got coats, gloves, scarves and hats for everyone under sixteen that's found themselves wanting to play on the deck in the snow and doesn't have them. I'm in 712 if you need something.

Obviously! [He grins at Scott.]

[mostlynormal]

Is it blue?

Tell me it's blue!

[voluntaryapnea]

[He pulls out a bright, vibrant blue coat from the pile and holds it up.]

Blue enough?

[mostlynormal]

[Scott practically bounces, pumping both fists into the sky.

Then he abruptly sobers, dropping his arms back to his sides and trying so hard not to smile.]

It could be bluer.

[voluntaryapnea]

[Stiles laughs at his initial reaction and then narrows his eyes. He casually reaches back over to the pile and lifts up a bright pink coat.]

Well if you don't like the blue one, there's this one.

[mostlynormal]

[welp that does it. Scott makes the greatest DO NOT WANT face ever.]

No no NO NO the blue one is great! It's perfect! I want that one!!

[voluntaryapnea]

[His head falls backwards as he laughs this time.]

Okay. Want to come down here or do you want me to come up to you?

[mostlynormal]

No I'll come there! I wanna jump in the pile.

[He's not even joking, he is on his way to throw himself into that pile of clothes.]

[voluntaryapnea]

[He is not even gonna pretend to be surprised.]

All right. See you soon, Scottie.
