[He hears that judging tone and winces. Visibly winces.] Yeah, yeah I'm trying. I don't know how Derek did it, though. It's like I'm suddenly a parent and I'm not ready, but I have to be ready because he's my responsibility. Does that... make sense? And his anger issues are um... Apparently he was diagnosed with Intermittent Explosive Disorder? But he doesn't take his meds because they make him too sleepy. [So yeah, Scott's first beta is totally the Hulk. Just his luck.]

[Oh, no, it doesn't help at all.] Derek said his anger will make him strong. He wasn't kidding.

[Of course something's weird. He's Scott. Scott is weird. Dilemma solved. Yep.]

[But his smile turns genuinely dorky and fond. He just wishes he could tell her how much he misses her, too. But that would be odd given that he shouldn't because she isn't gone.] It's really good to be back, actually. So I'm glad too.
