You already thought of that. Your dad did. Oh. His one useful suggestion.

Let's Clear This Up

Once and for all, Scott McCall DOES NOT HAVE ISSUES WITH MALE AUTHORITY.

He had issues with the serial killer/con man who turned him into a werewolf against his will and then physically and mentally violated him repeatedly when Scott wouldn't do what Peter wanted.

He had issues with the broody stalker who lied, beat, and betrayed him multiple times in order to force him into a pseudo-family relationship (instead of actually earning it) and then recruiting four other teenagers into an ancient feud when Scott wouldn't do what Derek wanted.

He had issues with the werewolf hunter who tried to run him over with a car and shoved a gun in his face because he tried to date his daughter.

He had issues with the older werewolf hunter who stabbed him in the gut and tried to use Scott to cure his cancer and establish his legacy and then launched a pogrom against Scott and his kind. But Gerard is dead now.

He had issues with his absentee father who threw him down a flight of stairs when drunk and, instead of taking responsibility for his actions, vanished from Scott's life.

Scott got along just fine with his eccentric Coach, even with his outrageous behavior and pointed insults. Scott got along very well with his best friend's father, Sheriff Stilinski, even as they went through some difficult times. Scott got along with Ken Yukimura, his second girlfriend's father, even when Ken's wife was suspicious of him. Scott got along fantastically with his boss, Alan Deaton, who became his close friend and mentor.

With the exception of Rafael McCall, none of those men listed above with whom he had issues could expect to have any authority over Scott unless Scott gave it to them, and he didn't. Rafael McCall abandoned the responsibility that came with that authority. So, no Scott McCall does not have problems with male authority. THEY DID.

I'm just so tired of fandom creating non-existent obligations for characters in order to make it seem that conflicts arose because of mutual behavior. Yes, even when it's humorous because in this fandom, it hasn't stayed humor.

Scott + relationships with adults.

Scott with Rafael, Deucalion, Noah, Alan, Derek, Melissa, Peter, Chris and Jordan.

(his relationship with Peter's not the best but he's better than Kate or Gerard. His relationships with Kate, Gerard and Victoria aren't displayedb due to image limits on my editor and because those three are terrible adults in the stories, which is why they're not in here.

[kitkatwinchester]

THANK F*CKING GOD!!

I feel like that was honestly the closest we have ever come.

I was SO F*CKING STRESSED I CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU!!!

Holy F*CK.

GOD!!!

ANYWAYS!!!

Thank GOD for Satomi.

Thank GOD for Deaton.

Thank GOD for Derek.

Thank GOD for Melissa.

Thank GOD for Rafael.

Thank GOD for Stiles.

Thank GOD for Kira.

Thank GOD for TRUE ALPHA SCOTT MCCALL!

GOD THAT WAS CLOSE!!

TOO CLOSE!!!

HOLY F*CK!!

Also I'm really freaking hoping that Malia is just storming away because she's mad that nobody told her and not mad because she's gonna leave Stiles and leave the pack, because that would be all kinds of messed up and make me all kinds of mad.

Really, I'm guessing she's just hurt that nobody told her.

But Stiles, of course, is going to assume that he lost her forever, which sucks for his mental state, ESPECIALLY after everything they just went through.

But I'm sure she'll come back.

She HAS to come back?

...right?

Anyways LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GOOD THINGS AND ALL THOSE AMAZING SAVES!

Order of events, because this time I can do that and STILL END with that AMAZING SCILES MOMENT!!!

Anyways.

Freaking Rafael ex-machina oh my GOD. That man is seriously following his redemption arc full force and as far as I'm concerned, REDEEMED. ALL THE CHECKMARKS! REDEEMED, SIR!! (Also quick aside, Satomi is a f*cking bad*ss. Anyways.)

The way that Stiles was clearly soooo terrified, but used his humor to put up that mask, solely because he would never, EVER betray his friends, no matter what.

But then the way he flinches, just slightly, as "The Chemist" (as IMDb dubs him) is about to hit three...

And okay, between the scene with Malia, and how freaking close to getting shot he really was, and then the GUNSHOT SOUND--

Yeah I was genuinely terrified that Stiles was gonna die, and I KNOW he's in future episodes, but my heart didn't care.

But THANK GOD for Rafael, because THERE HE F*CKING WAS!

And Stiles was shaking, and terrified, and clearly anxious, but he was so quick to recenter himself and focus up and hear and process what Rafael was saying (thank GOD for Melissa with that phone call we love you! <3) and he RAN SO F*CKING FAST TO SAVE HIS FRIENDS!!

AND THEN IT'S THE FREAKING SCILES MOMENTS!!

The way that Stiles books it and just screams and shouts even as he runs, hoping Scott can hear him.

The way Scott is on the other side, trying to get himself to stand up, trying to get himself to hear what Stiles is saying, trying to do what he's asking him.

The way that Stiles just keeps shouting, begging for Scott to answer, banging on the door, and even though Malia's in there, and Kira's in there, the ONLY PERSON that Stiles is thinking about is SCOTT.

The way that Stiles just starts banging and screaming and pushing with EVERYTHING HE HAS because SCOTT'S NOT ANSWERING and STILES ISN'T THERE and he CAN'T GET IN and HIS BEST FRIEND IS DYING and there's NOTHING HE CAN DO.

The way he just collapses to the ground, defeated, thinking he failed, thinking he lost his best friend, thinking it's all his fault.

The way the camera pans to Scott, on the other side of the room, in the EXACT SAME POSITION on the ground, because even when they're separated, they're still in sync, and still together, and still have each other's backs—literally and figuratively.

The way that we get a little bit of Scira with Kira's voice finally bringing Scott out of it and getting him to get up and try.

The way that Scott finally gets enough strength to pull out his TRUE ALPHA powers and use his werewolf sight to find the jar and knock it to the ground and SAVE THEM ALL.

The way Stiles stands up in hopeful surprise when the vault door finally opens, and then he stands there staring at Scott as if he doesn't believe it.

The way Stiles is minutes away from tears, and Scott is minutes away from death, and they just lock eyes and stare at each other, reveling in the fact that they're both OKAY, and they're both ALIVE, and they're both HERE, with EACH OTHER.

The way that Stiles just shakes his head and grabs Scott's shoulder, making sure he's really there, before moving that hand to Scott's face so gently in a "you're okay".

The way that Scott just stares at him, trying so hard to catch his breath, but so clearly grateful that he has Stiles here with him.

The way that Stiles finally shakes his head and almost rolls his eyes at how ridiculous this whole thing is, and how CLOSE they came to losing each other, brushing off the terror and horror in the only way he knows how--with sarcasm and sass.

The way that, when all is said and done, even as Scott's holding on to Kira, when Malia walks away, Scott just looks over at Stiles in the upmost concern, because he realizes that Malia knows, and he KNOWS how much her walking away hurts his best friend.

The way that these two would go to the ends of the earth and back for each other and would destroy anyone and anything they had to for each other I just...

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!

YOU WERE RIGHT, @slice-of-magenta!!!

I TOTALLY SEE WHY THIS IS YOUR FAVORITE!!!

I F*CKING LOVE SCILES SO MUCH AHHHH!!!

MY BOYS!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

God what an episode.

That is 100% going in the top five, EASILY.

Because that was SUCH an emotional ride, and it all culminated in some amazing Sciles, and I was here for it the WHOLE WAY!! <3 <3

AHHHH!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!

(I couldn't find any gifs of the reunion scene, but I did find this, and it has ALL the emotion and ALL the worry and I JUST CANNOT WITH THESE TWO THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH AND WOULD LITERALLY DIE WITHOUT EACH OTHER I CAN'T! :'( <3 <3 <3 <3 <3)

[momentofmemory]

scott & melissa “we talked about this.” for your ask game?

"We talked about this,” Melissa says reprovingly. “You have to tell me when your asthma’s hurting you, okay?”

Scott doesn’t look up from his dinner, the same frown he’s had since he got home from school all but etched into his face.

Melissa sighs. “How about this. How long had the inhaler been empty?”

There’s a moment of silence, then Scott shrugs, picking at his beans.

Melissa kneads at her temples. Rafe’s going to be home any minute, and she really doesn’t want to be dealing with this when he’s around.

“Scott,” she repeats, placing her hand on his knee. “It’s really important to not let that run out, okay?”

The front door slams carelessly open, the sound of Rafael’s clumsy feet following soon after.

Great. Probably at least two drinks in.

Melissa starts to remove her hand from Scott’s knee, only to find Scott’s already moved it away in her distraction.

“I don’t need another inhaler,” Scott says softly. “You don’t have to buy one.”

Melissa’s blood turns cold, then burning hot.

Scott must have overheard her arguing with Rafe on payday.

“Finish eating in your room, honey,” she murmurs. “I’m going to say hi to dad and then we can talk about this, okay?”

Scott nods, sullen, before taking his plate and slinking away from the table.

Upstairs, Rafael knocks something heavy over, and Melissa’s jaw clenches.

He’s going to break something serious if he keeps this up.

[princeescaluswords]

not sure if it was meant to be done elsewhere, but my favorite fic of yours is 'Ten Things That Scott McCall Can't Say'!

Thank you!

I wanted to point out something. In Second Chance at First Line (1x02) Scott gets angry at Stiles while riding in the Jeep because he feels Stiles is treating Scott's transformation and the danger like a quest in a video game:

Scott: I can't find anything about wolfsbane being used for burial. Stiles: Just keep looking. Maybe it's like a ritual or something, like maybe they bury you as a wolf. Or maybe it's like a special skill, you know? Like something you have to learn. Scott: I'll put it on my to - do list, right underneath figuring out how the hell I'm playing this game tonight. Stiles: Maybe it's different for girl werewolves. Scott: Okay! Stop it! Stiles: Stop what? Scott: Stop saying "werewolves"! Stop enjoying this so much.

Now, we're supposed to believe that Scott's agitated mental state is due to the wolfsbane rope concealed in Stiles's backpack, but this scene also marks something else, just as important. This is the last time we see Scott get angry at Stiles because of how Stiles behaves toward Scott. Scott may become exasperated at Stiles's insistence on murder as a solution when it comes to Derek, Jackson, and Liam, but that is in defense of others, and Scott does judge Stiles in Lies of Omission (5x09) when he believes that Stiles kills Donovan to protect his father, but I cannot think of another time when Scott expresses anger or even frustration at Stiles at how Stiles treats him specifically. If you've read my blog know I believe that there were plenty of opportunities for this.

Now, moving forward to the other end of Scott's character development, compare this exchange to the scene in Pressure Test (6x15), where Scott is gathering his things to leave Beacon County after his father negotiates a deal.

Rafael: Look, I know this isn't what you wanted, but it's the right decision. When Stilinski called... Scott: Can you hand me that shirt right there? Rafael: Now, you can be mad at me, but I'd rather watch you leave the state than watch you die. Scott: (SIGHS) I'm not mad. I get why you did it. Rafael: Scott, you're not the only one who gets to protect his family. I'll be downstairs.

We've seen Scott lay into his father before in Insatiable (3x23), but he doesn't in this instance. While the circumstances are different, both scenes have a character making what's happening to Scott about them instead. But now, six seasons have passed, and Scott has learned that there are things he can't say -- or, more precisely, emotions he can't express during a crisis situation.

Teen Wolf made it a point to explore the burdens of leadership. Derek was an incompetent alpha because he made decisions based on his emotional reactions to events -- anger at what had been done to him and his family -- and Scott has managed to mature into someone who can put aside his own emotions in order to do what must be done. Scott has demonstrated this growth, and he will do it again in Season 6 when -- after a harrowing night of listening to his mother struggle to live on the operating table -- he goes to Peter -- Peter! -- and asks him to join the fight against Monroe.

Personally, I literally seethe in reaction to that scene in Eichen House in Werewolves of London (6x17), but the show was relentless in its conviction that a good leader has to put their own emotional responses to the side in order to be effective. I would have loved if Scott had unloaded, verbally or physically, on Peter after that villain enabled a fanatic to point an assault rifle at his own daughter and the man trying to protect his ungrateful ass, but that wouldn't have made stopping Monroe any easier. So Scott didn't.

Fanfiction gives us what canon didn't, and the lesson Scott learn about suppressing his own reasonable emotional responses is what I explored in this story. I suspect that the movie commented on that by having Scott move to Los Angeles -- somewhere he could be free to express himself -- but I wish it had been more explicit.

ANOTHA ONE!
