[ stiles... absolutely cannot promise that he won't be weird at fucking wolverine if he ever runs into him or comes across him on the network, so he simply does not acknowledge the request. better to say nothing about it than to make a promise and possibly break it later because he sometimes doesn't know ho to keep his mouth shut or keep his cool.
anyway. there are things more important than logan right now - namely, laura. except - stiles doesn't really know what to say. what do you say to someone who's been fucked over so badly? what do you say to someone who was never given the respect and the dignity they deserved? "i'm sorry"? that sounds fucking stupid, and useless, and it doesn't change anything.
stiles dwells on it for a minute, thumbs dancing anxiously above his phone screen, the inside of his cheek pinched between his molars. in the end, he settles on: ]
Doesn't seem like things worked out the way they wanted.
[ meaning, laura seems independent and as separated as he imagines one could be from the the person she was created to be. ]
Way cooler than any lame-ass puppet they were probably going for.
yeah, well. they did a pretty bad job, i guess. i killed most of them.
( because that's a normal thing that a person casually says. she's beyond feeling guilty for it though, most of it happened the way most things have happened in laura's life -- outside of her control. people trying to make power moves and laura just the gun in someone's hand, being pointed at the people who needed to die to make that happen.
not all of them, though. some of them were before she took a more rigid stance on death and killing at her hands, and she doesn't feel bad about those, either. )
i don't do that any more. but if you were worried i would understand that.
