[ is derek's answer, which is painfully true. there's not many left from his jump. derek doesn't like thinking about that, about how many people have gone. ]
No pirates. [ dismissive, because derek isn't all that invested in pirates. there's a pause, then derek sighs. ] Do you remember what she looked like? The person who attacked you?
[stiles thinks about saying something sarcastic concerning the idea that if there was only one room on derek's floor he would have to be moving in with derek... except that almost sounds reassuring and not funny at all, so instead he just says;]
So I'll move to one of those rooms then.
[he makes a small moue of displeasure at arima's apparent lack of pirates. sketchy dude with the treasure island obsession had mislead him, how shocking.
you just couldn't trust people these days, could you?]
Dunno. [a shrug] Thin, brunette, pretty. Really really well dressed.
[ stiles agrees, and derek breathes out, relieved. he'd expected more of a fight, honestly, but he'll take this. everyone on the same floor, more or less, within earshot, eases derek's mind. he's not the alpha, but they're all still pack, as complicated as that is. ]
If you see her again, come find me. Or find someone.
[ though he thinks stiles might prefer to defend himself, which is probably not going to end well one of these days. ]
Are you sure you're alright?
[ like this is some sort of last call, as derek rocks a step back, preparing to leave. or flee. he has a quota of emotional conversation here, stiles, this is fast approaching the limit. ]
Yeah yeah, I get it, use the buddy system. Whatever.
[waving a hand dismissively between him and derek. always so melodramatic, honestly derek. not that it would do stiles much good. with the way she moves, the moment he saw odessa it would already be too later.]
Ohmygod, I'm fiiiiiiiine. [stiles pulls a face, uncomfortable as always being asked how he is. go ahead and leave so he can fall face first in his pillow and pretend to sleep already derek]
[ derek pulls a face, but he doesn't contest that, lets stiles declaration stand. fine is never truthful, but it's enough for now, stiles whole and unscathed in front of him. ]
Alright. I'll see you around then.
[ and then derek just casually retreats, probably to go harass cora, as that's kind of the theme of his month. ]
