Dungeon Residential Camps, Somewhere, Friday

[not_a_whiner]

A strong wind tore through the hallways. Inside the camps, it was only audible: no breeze flicked into the large chambers themselves. Outside them, though, torches would flicker on and off on their own whim, exposing the dungeon's residents to errant grues.

There was something to be celebrated, though: when the maze shifted overnight, its paths crossed and connected all three camps. Time for a reunion.

[ camp one | camp two | camp three | ooc as of yesterday, everyone in camp 1 is free to assume they know about the first key and the vault. ]

Kitty rubbed a hand over his back, trying to be reassuring. "It'll be okay. You can stay here, and we'll help you deal, okay?"

Stiles had his doubts about that since he didn't see himself coming back from this kind of sadness a second time, but he nodded again anyway. The least he could do was try to reassure Kitty. "I'm sorry."

He was sorry for a lot of things. Killing Derek, getting blood and tears all over Kitty and being a general emotional mess was just the obvious stuff.

"You've got nothing to be sorry about with me," Kitty said firmly, not wanting to add to the issues here. And, remembering what she'd seen yesterday, she asked, "What do you need?"

Stiles pulled back a little, wiping his eyes off on his shirt sleeve. What he wanted was Derek alive, but there was no way that was going to happen.

He decided to settle on what seemed do-able. "I just don't want to be alone."

"Then you won't be. I'll stay right here with you, all right?"

Well, except when she wandered off to cry, but she'd still make sure there was someone with him.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

Stiles nodded again, offering a half-hearted smile before wiping at his eyes again. "All right. You don't have to worry about me wandering off. I'm...I'm just going to stay where I am."

This time the lesson would probably stick for more than a day.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[throughaphase]

Yeah, this wasn't a great way to learn that lesson. "Need something to take your mind off of it?"

She was not going to ask him to help her with her stabby weapon today, but she could easily come up with busy work if he was the kind of person to go for that.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[robinonadderall]

"Yes, please," he said. "I'll do whatever, seriously."

Though she shouldn't feel bad if the busy work didn't stick with him. He had been off his Adderall since all this started.

"I want to get an inventory of what we have here now, even little stuff people brought back," she totally made up. "You can help me with that, if you want."

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[robinonadderall]

"Okay," he said, nodding. "Yeah, I can do that."

It'd at least make him feel helpful, if anything.

"Should clean up first, I guess."

Considering the whole covered in blood thing.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[throughaphase]

"Okay. I think we just have the fountain right there, and I can find you a shirt," she offered.

She'd probably have to find a new one for herself, too.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[robinonadderall]

"I, um, I'm actually just going to wash this one off," he said, looking down at himself. "It's Derek's. Was Derek's."

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[throughaphase]

"Okay," Kitty said, and hopefully he didn't mind getting hugged again because seriously.

Re: Camp One - Main Space

[robinonadderall]

Please, Stilinski men lived for hugs. He was all over the hugging. There'd be more crying later, probably, but right now he was as calm as he was gonna get.
