[ what up, exsilium. have you had your daily dose of teenager yet? no? let's fix that. ]

Hey, Scott, buddy—thanks for the calendar. It's awesome. [ covering his best friend's furry butt: just a day in the life of stiles stilinski. (it's his "birthday", he can lie if he wants to.) ] I can track lunar phases way more accurately now, which, y'know. Totally helpful. You know me... and the moon. And planets, all of the planets. Love 'em.

[ you might notice the way he's chewing on his shirt, his lips, the way his eyes dart around. it's not because he's lying—which he never made a claim to be good at, but hey—it's because he's two seconds from jumping on his bed and raising hyperactive hell. ]

Moving on—where can a guy score some Adderall around here? It's usually a prescription thing, but, hey, doesn't look like the Initiative kidnappers really care all too much about stuff like medication. Here's a little tip for you guys, if you're listening in, which, let's face it, you probably are: I can't fight your battles for you unless you make an effort for me, okay? Okay.

[ OKAY. ]

Man, I'd kill for a good movie. Video game. I'd even settle for a board game. Parcheesi?

[Yeah video. From the room next to his. Deal with it, bro]

You have terrible friends.

[omicron]

[ darcy you are exactly as lazy as he is. also, HVDU. ]

I'm offended. My friends are beautiful people.

[ well, friend. ]

[ video only in the most technical sense of the word - you can see a wall, but otherwise there's nothing happening on the screen. what you can hear, however, is scott obviously pissing himself laughing but sort of trying to stay quiet. the reason you can't see him is because he is leaning over so far in his chair that he's on the verge of falling off of it.

he totally feels for you on the adderall thing, bro, just give him a second to catch his breath. ]

[omicron]

[ scott. scott. how is he supposed to talk to a wall. get back up here and STOP LAUGHING. ]

Don't hurt yourself, there, dude. Seriously, you're gonna break something.

[studieswaitressing]

[She can't say she's heard of Adderall, but she's a bit behind the times as far as prescription drugs go compared to some of the other people here who were actually from Earth.]

And what exactly does that prescription thing help with?

Video;

[omicron]

Oh, you know. Focus. Focusing. On the problems at hand. [ he makes a... focus-y gesture towards the camera, and then double-takes. ]

Holy shhh— [ that's not something you see every day. he opens his mouth. ]

I don't know if you know this, but you're, uh. Blue.

[ and scaly. kind of. not like some people he knows, but wow. ]

video

[totallytrustworthy]

Do you always cover for him like that?

[She's not certain of it, but she figures if she's wrong then Scott does a terrible job of telling the truth.]

video

[omicron]

Cover for him? The dude bought me a sweet present, I'm just saying thanks.

[ noooooo idea what you're talking about. none. zero idea. ]

video

[hardbody]

[rolls his eyes.] You're both terrible liars.

[omicron]

[ WHAT IS UP WITH ALL THE BLUE PEOPLE AROUND HERE

he decides not to comment on this guy, since certain other people have so kindly reminded him that tact's a thing. ]

What? No! [ he's a... great... liar. okay, time to save face. ] I'm not lying, I'm being a good friend. A great friend. To my great friend.

[whatsupcroc]

Make it poker and I'll drag Rin in.

[omicron]

Rin? [ who? ] I mean—yeah, sure, why not.

[ says the guy who can't keep a straight face to save his life. and who makes vague promises to strangers. ]

[has_a_cult]

"Adderall"?

[omicron]

It's a prescription drug? C'mon, you can't tell me you've never heard of it. [ seriously where are you people from. ]

On second thought, I guess I'm not all that surprised.

[implying]

Oh, come, there are better games than that!

[onemoredeath]

Speak to a Doctor Watson for the drug. If you wish for a magical version, speak to Anders of the Feathered Cloak. Mention pie and I am sure he will be all ears.

[seamend]

[OH WHOOPS KID IN NEED OF PRESCRIPTION! Doctor mode is a go.]

Aderall? You have Attention Deficit? [Oh. Yeah... taking full note of the general twitchiness.] And hyperactivity. Oh dear... how long have you been without it?

[omicron]

That's me. [ he brings a finger up to press at his upper lip, chewing on the knuckle. ] Ever since I got here. So, like, a few days. Five days. Give or take a day. You a doctor?

[text]

[bloominghistorian]

I have books.

[text]

[omicron]

oh thank god. dude, you're a life saver. which ones?

[shotgunning]

You're the one who wanted the calendar? [ You're so not what she expected, Stiles. ]

video;

[omicron]

[ he rarely is, jo. he rarely is. ]

That's me. Calendar guy.

voice;

[bloodsnap]

[Lunar phases? While she and Scott may share a...erm...condition, Bloodsnap is interested in said phases for an entirely different reason.

This lad sounds a bit young for that though, so she will ask.]

Why on Azeroth would you want to track lunar phases?

video;

[omicron]

[ wh . . . at. ]

Guess that depends on what you mean by Azeroth.

video;

[ganking]

Seriously? It was you? [ He still doesn't quite trust Scott's story about the whole calendar mess so time to grill the other one involved. ]

video;

[omicron]

Yep, seriously me. [ he makes a ta-dah motion towards himself. no secrets here, dean. nope. none. ]

video

[fintastic]

I don't know what an Adderall is, but I have movies! And I have some board games. I just got them, I'm trying to set up a game club!

[ She tilts her head, empathizing with that kind of weird, antsy behavior, though for entirely different reasons. ]

Can you swim? Do you want to go for a swim?

video

[omicron]

[ DEAR SWEET LORD what are you? no, okay. he can't judge—actually he can—but not out loud, since that's actually easier to deal with right now. he stares for a second, before latching onto the tail-end of the apparent... fish girl's... question.

—game club, though. relevant to his interests. ] Sounds like a whole bundle of fun. I'd join.

Do I want to go for a swim?

[ squinting. he can see how that might be a question on her mind, considering the fins, but... ]

Not really a swimmy kind of guy. More of a... [ his hand cuts through the air, indicating a vague approximation of groundliness. ] Land mammal.

[ it might help him let off some energy, but considering the state of his world as he'd left it, the idea of swimming kind of gives him the heebie-jeebies. ] I'll get back to you on that one.

[shutupmerlin]

[ there's about five million things in that that he doesn't understand, so he'll just sound with the most interesting sounding word. ]

What manner of game is 'Parcheesi'?

video;

[omicron]

[ it is fun to say, isn't it? ]

It's a board game. Traditionally played on a board.

video; SO LATE TO THIS

[gained_a_level]

What is a Parcheesi?

video; IT'S COOL SO AM I

[omicron]

[ stiles is this close to making a list of everyone who doesn't know what he's talking about. THIS CLOSE. ]

Contrary to popular belief—not actually a type of cheese. It's a game. [ he makes a square-ish motion with his hands. ] Tell me you know what a game is.
