Welp. I'm getting kinda sick of this part of life here. Any old time we can stop with the random vanishings, that'd be stellar.

Isaac Lahey's suite is empty. He's gone. No idea when that happened. Allison Argent also vanished earlier this month. So that's a thing that's happened.

So, now that my abandonment issues have really been given plenty of fuel to last me through at least my mid-life crisis, a question. Last month due to the generosity of Tony Stark, I got my jeep back. Through careful conservation, I've managed to keep her running.

Except now a certain little dial is hovering just above the E on the left, and I'm kinda screwed. Anybody know where a guy can get his hands on some highly-refined petroleum? I'm not picky, the jeep can run on 87 octane, don't need any of that high-falutin' 93 stuff. Because, you know, the back of a giant turtle is probably full of crude oil deposits.

Oh, wait.

Still kinda is.

Sorry. I'll be good.

[And who's fault is that exactly...?]

I want us all to get along. Am I...am I asking too much?

[skybluejeep]

[His. So his.]

No! Not at all. I want that too. I'm just a complete spazz sometimes, right?

[watcheslanterns]

Just...try to take a deep breath Stiles. We're going to be alright.

You know how you said this is all new to you?

This is new to me too, now. I've never had an ex-girlfriend before. So I am completely at a loss how to deal. Sorry.

I know. I mean, I can guess. I don't know what I'm doing, but I just know I don't want us to hate each other or stay mad at how things turned out.

[skybluejeep]

Yeah, me neither. I definitely don't hate you, Punz. I really, really don't.

And I'm still mad at myself. I probably will be for a while, but that's on me, not you.

[watcheslanterns]

I guess I can't stop that, but I wish you wouldn't be so hard on yourself.

[skybluejeep]

Being hard on myself is kind of a thing. But I'm trying not to be.

[watcheslanterns]

Good. It's something, at least.

[skybluejeep]

So. In an effort to not be weird and awkward.

How's work going?

video; private

[watcheslanterns]

Oh, pretty good. [She shrugged.]

I'm learning a lot of new styles.

[skybluejeep]

Oh, cool! I'm glad to hear it. You're so good at that, learning new stuff is good.

Like...new women's stuff? Or for guys?

[watcheslanterns]

A little of both? I've never made clothes for men before, so it's been pretty different.

[skybluejeep]

Cool. I really liked the scarf you made me. It's super soft and warm, it's my favorite thing right now, honestly.

I'm still plugging away at the Brazen Turtle. Nothing new there.

[watcheslanterns]

That's right. I never got a chance to thank you for the necklace. It's really beautiful, Stiles.

[skybluejeep]

I'm glad you like it. I saw it and I just immediately thought of you.

Opals are just...you. Precious and colorful and shining.

[She blushes, ducking her head slightly.]

Thank you. That's very sweet of you.
