[ There's some shuffling. She makes an annoyed sound. ]
I wrote the rest down somewhere. It was about time travel.
[ there's a pause, derek taken aback by the question. ]
No. [ honestly, because. because he doesn't want that, nevermind that he doesn't have the chops to back it up. ] I'm looking out for us, because Scott's gone.
[ Actually she'll attach herself to Stiles' hip and make that work. She's not a pack animal by nature: Scott was an exception. Scott earned it by helping her through the difficulties. She doesn't know Derek, and therefore doesn't trust him like she trusts Scott. ]
