Stiles was never good with fire. As a human or a witch, fire was no friend of Stiles. So of course when Jackson joked that he should make an exclusively flame broiled dinner he didn't attempt it. Well, not alone anyway. Derek was warily standing behind Stiles in the kitchen desperately wishing to be outside training with the pack. He was happy to help Stiles cook for the pack, but when he watched the short haired teen pull out a blow torch he suddenly wanted to watch the pack couples grope each other and call it training.
"Stiles is this a good idea?" Derek asked eyeing it warily.
"Of course" Stiles snorted "All I have to do is light fire to this alcohol covered shrimp"
Derek didn't know if he should step back and protect himself or step forward and protect Stiles. He compromised by standing grabbing distance from the teen and watching over his shoulder. The thing about being an alpha is that you don't always have time for yourself. As it happens Stiles hadn't had a hair cut since the summer started and now his hair was a nice length. Still short but a nice upgrade from his buzz cut. As luck would have it Stiles was able to pull off a flawless execution of the flambé but when he turned around to brag to Derek he was met with wide eyes and a few smacks on the head from a dishtowel.
"What the hell Derek?"
"Your hair was on fire!" Derek pointed at him, dish rag still in hand
Stiles looked up with his eyes and pouted slightly "whatever I still made the shrimp"
Derek sighed, his shoulders going up with the intake of breath and his eyes rolling as he scrunched up his mouth and exhaled through his nose. His entire body was able to exude annoyance.
"Well you might want to keep you're head back for the desert."
Stiles grinned and turned his back to Derek "I hope you all like Baked Stilinski"
Jackson later complained that there was hair in his dinner both Stiles and Derek snickered.


Gemini was literally twiddling her thumbs in regards to the witch situation as she laid in bed with Isaac.
"Babe you're nervous"
She made a noise in the back of her throat "I wonder why? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that there's a vicious Alpha werewolf that wants to kill us. Maybe it's the council of 49 witches that want to kill us. Or maybe its cause were out of orange juice!" She yelled sitting up and throwing her arms in the air
Isaac was silent for a moment "I'm still not sure what you're angry about"
She shot him a glare to kill the devil and he retreated immediately.
"What the hell is even going on in my life?" She questioned "I am a 16 year old virgin living with my almost boyfriend in a house with one creepy almost adult and about 8 teenagers? How is this fair? How is this my life? I was only supposed to come here to monitor you crazy ass wolves and here I am neck deep in care and affection!"
"I've never heard someone complain about receiving love before"
She was silent at his words
"It's strange" he continued, "you've always seemed so happy, so full of energy and smiles."
"I am" she told him clutching her fists "I am so awesome its beyond control"
"Sometimes when you say that your heart skips a beat" he told her softly
"I am totally happy in every way shape and form Isaac"
"Your heart is skipping again"
She ignored him and moved closer to him resting her head on his stomach. They were quite for a while, in a strange and sad silence.
"Are you okay?" He asked "usually you never stop talking"
She huffed in amusement but didn't say anything
"This isn't one of you're 'I like the quite' silences this is a 'why do I even exist' silences" he waited but she didn't reply "you're not as bad as you think you know" he mumbled
"It's not just that" she said swiftly "I mean...sometimes I just get tired of hearing myself speak...my voice just drags on and on and God damn it's annoying."
He frowned "I don't find you annoying"
she didn't reply but they lapsed back into silence until Isaac spoke
"I didn't know you were still a virgin"
"The more you know" she mumbled
He sighed "Gem I want to help but I need to know what you want"
" I want a boy with lips like morphine, knock me off my feet" she whispered "And when I inhale my breath was lightning, my heart was thunder, my blood was wind crashing through me. The cascade of elements tempted by the Poseidon that is you're love. The ruby red apple that tempted Eve I bite and beg for more. Pain, punishment and love in the same. I want intensity that rivals the rain"
Isaac hummed his appreciation for her words; it wasn't often that she let him hear any of her poetry so he tended to enjoy them. The meaning behind her words were not lost on him however. That didn't mean he knew how to respond though. Gemini was an enigma to him, the unanswered question that would save the world. She was a lot like Stiles in the talking and movement department. Never silent for or unmoving for more than minutes at a time. She never smelled honest even when she was telling the truth. She looked apologetic when mad and excited when afraid, she was an intensity to rival the rain. He sighed
"We have two weeks until the full moon"
She nodded
"After that we'll see what happens"
"Why do you want to wait?" she asked "I'm already apart of the pack"
"Yeah but if you turn in the next two weeks we'll all be apart of a dead pack"
"I just need to talk to the elder" she told him "she'll understand when I explain it all to her"
"And if she doesn't?"
Gemini was silent "we deal with it when it happens"
"Will you stay even if you're not a wolf"
"Do you want me too?"
"Who else is going to love me?" It sounded a lot more corny than he meant it to
"Aragont boy," she moved so she could kiss his cheek "love yourself so no one has to"
Isaac smirked "you really are related to Deaton, you've got the whole cryptic speech thing going on"
Gemini snorted "I'm adopted bitch"


Deaton caught the whole pack together an hour later. The pack was sitting in the living room about to watch The Amazing Spider again because that movie is beautiful. Deaton just showed up on the doorstep and knocked on the door with force.
Derek opened the door with less attitude then Deaton expected
"Derek" he nodded coming inside "I need to speak to my niece"
"You were always nicer to me than my actually parents if I had to guess" Gemini said coming out of the kitchen with a bag of baby carrots "I know my past is a big blank slate no need for the family names" she winked at Jackson and he gave her a small sideways grin
"Gemini we have a serious problem"
She bit a carrot "what's up Doc?"
Deaton may or may not have twitched "There are rumors around the witches council that you're boyfriend Tj won't let you go so easily. Tj and the other witches that claim to be associated with you could possibly be planning to go rouge an collect you before the set date"
"Collect me?" She raised an eyebrow "What am I Mario Kart coins? Anyway that dick is not my boyfriend daddy-o." She glances over at Isaac briefly "Just a jerk that took to long."
"None the less" Deaton says "we could have a big fight on our hands"
"There was a set date?" Danny asks
"Oh yeah didn't Gem tell you guys?" Isaac glanced round the room "If she turns at the end of the month then there going to come and kill us all"
The silence in the room spoke volumes as everyone turned to look at Gemini.
She smiled "Isaac's right of course, but it won't be a problem. Derek told me today that I'm not a wolf. Whatever Stiles did blocked it so" she clapped her hands and turned back to Deaton "It's been real pops but give the council my regards and tell Tj to go screw himself. Preferably with oh I don't know a loaded pistol? Or Voldomorts wand, or any other painful object that he could use to ram up his ass and go through his hard head."
"That's from the whole pack" Scott called out
"Tell him from me that the next time I see him I will personally rip him apart and keep him alive so we can see how long it takes for human appendages to dissolve in acid. I will pin his bleeding torso to a clinic table with sharp sticks dipped in his own shit and semen. I will skin the flesh from his body then dump maggots on what's left and let them eat him alive." the smile never left her face and that made the anger in her voice more unsettling. The room was silent and many members of the pack were wide eyed and shivering at her words
Deaton nodded only slightly stunned at her words "I'll see what I can do." He looked slightly unsure but after a moment he stepped forward and gave Gemini a quick hug "You are like family to me"
She smiled at him and he nodded to everyone before leaving.
She took a big breath and stared at the door before turning to face the pack "Ready for the movie?"
