You obviously haven't met him. You would know what I'm talking about if you had. He has the facial equivalent of a ring of coffee left on a dirty tablecloth. If he stood next to a quail egg with googly eyes on it, I wouldn't be able to tell the two of them apart. Anyone would notice those moles. Having two heads would be less noticeable.
He's, you know. Nice. Annoying, but. You said you wanted an in with another sub. Stiles is a good guy. Knows how to be there for people. Could be good for you. That's all.
I'm not hooking you up. I don't want you to sleep with him.
[ not that it's any business if he does. not that it's any of his business of tate or stiles sleep with anyone in general, for that matter? just... saying. ]
[ that's actually - a huge relief. derek had been convinced tate was going to starve, only surviving on a supply of scraps that would inevitably dry up when derek gets caught sneaking them away. tate's caving, and he's coming to him for support. that's... good. ]
Sit with me. Doesn't have to be a big deal. Kind of helpful for me, actually. Puts me in a better light with the guards if they think I'm playing along. Pretty sure most of them still wish they had permission to kick my ass.
[Tate's been putting off actually finding someone to sit with, but more than enough people have curbed him towards hanging up his "sentimental" hunger strike. Staying alive's more important than looking like a self-important tree hugger without a plan, so he's shifting gears. But there's still something to the idea of that humiliation of sinking to sit by someone's feet that does him in a little. He's relieved Derek's okay with it, but also... relieved that it almost sounds like a deal over a request. They both look okay if this works out. Street goes two ways.]
it won't have to be all the time, or every day if i eat once a day that's fine by me but I need to darken my mark
What? Fuck that. Twice a day, morning and night. I'll keep smuggling things out for you over lunch, but that'll dry up if I ever get caught, so try to stockpile what you can. If you're doing this, do it the right way.
[ he says this with the expectation that tate'll probably shoot him down, but - he just wants to make it clear that he's always available, that he'll do everything he can to make this easier. if tate tells him to fuck off, fine, but at least he knows derek'll be around if he's ever hungry enough to want more. ]
Stiles eats with me. Sometimes. So you won't be alone. Eyes won't be on you. If that helps. I don't know if that makes things better or worse.
[That's all he'll say on the matter - oddly swayed, though he's not going to admit it. Part of what attracts him to Derek sometimes is the sense of being cared for, something he hasn't really had in a long time. Something he's craved for as long as he can remember. So he doesn't fight morning and night, he just doesn't commit to it outright. As for Stiles...]
i'd prefer alone but we can work around that i don't like strangers
[ he'll stay in that cafeteria all fucking day, if he has to. he's just... not sure how tate is going to make friends if he's nervous about talking to people. the whole isolate yourself and hate everyone approach has sort of turned derek into a bit of an island, sssso. he's concerned, if that's not what tate wants. ]
Thanks for coming to me with this. Could've gone to anyone.
