Derek stands back, a couple of feet away, arms crossed over his chest and certain sort of smug smirk on his face that most people want to punch. She goes stiff, and he has to resist grinning.

"It's happening. You can't control your shifts," he says to her, and it's almost like an admonishment. She's not part of his pack, but that doesn't stop him from the almost-lecture right there.

[pawpular]

"Yes, I can!" she protests, despite all evidence to the contrary. She finally manages to get her arm into the sleeve, making a quiet sound of triumph before pushing herself up into a sitting position. Her other shoulder slips out from under the jacket as she flails around trying to stay covered while pulling it onto her properly.

Maya tries not to think too hard about just what he'd seen. Or the fact thathe's totally watching now.

She huffs. "I can control when I turn," she amends. Mostly. "It's turning back that's the problem. Most werewolves are the same, you know. Some of us only have genetic enhancements to make us exist at all, okay?"

[tsunderek]

"No you can't." Most people would probably not look when there's a mostly naked girl on the ground, discreetly attempting to slide into a leather jack to cover up. Well, Derek isn't most people. She annoyed him, and not it's his turn.

Derek is really not fit for civilization, so it's probably for the best that he's here in this compound.

"You need to learn control. You need something that's going to anchor you." He has that sense of control. So does Scott and Isaac. Not the others, though. They've never found that anchor, that balance that helps them to shift. "But maybe we're just designed differently."

There's a bitter note to his tone of voice.

[pawpular]

"Do you really have to watch this?" she demands, finally managing to get the jacket on properly. She zips up the front for good measure and gets easily to her feet. Thank god he's so big, really; the jacket hits her at mid-thigh, covering what he needs to.

She opens her mouth to argue back at him, before shutting it with a click of teeth. She shoves a hand back through her hair, shaking some leaves and dirt out of it. A snort comes out instead, more animal that human. "I'm pretty sure we all have our design flaws." There's a matching note of bitterness. Out in the forest, it's harder to keep her discontent at the deal she had to make a secret. "And the fact that I'm not rolling around on the ground talking about how much I love trees and want to be one with nature is a testament to my control, thanks.

[tsunderek]

"No, not really." Not that it stops him, the creep. There's a part of him that just... wants to watch her. She's beautiful, in any form. Girl or animal. She reminds him of Paige. Not in looks or personality, but in spirit. That spunk that made Paige a fighter, made her strong.

Not strong enough, something whispers to him in the back of his mind.

He looks away when she's finally covered up and definitely doesn't think about how looks dressed in only his jacket.

"I guess that's what we get for being experiments." He snorts, rolling his neck and hearing a satisfying crack. "That's the medication, isn't it?"

[pawpular]

Maya raises an eyebrow at him, gaze challenging. Cougars aren't pack animals, and he's not her alpha, so she doesn't have much of a problem with it. "So you're doing it because you want to." Jackass. Okay, he's seriously good looking, and the idea of him being into her in some way maybe makes her feel squishy inside, but please. She has some self-respect. A lot of it, actually.

"Yeah, remind me not to volunteer for that again. Oh, wait." She scowls at him. "I'm not using the medication in place of learning control, if that's what you mean. It's like a degenerative disease. Alzheimer's, or something. We're just lucky that it's reversible, and hopefully preventable, soon. I'm better at dealing with it than - some others, but I'm not immune."

She looks down, wriggling her toes in the dirt. There's a long pause, before a sigh escapes her. "But yes, I do need to learn how to hold my form better. Happy?"

[tsunderek]

A casual shrug from the Alpha here. "There wasn't really any other reason to." He's doing it - mostly - to get under her skin. Two can play that game; it's just that his methods are a little more questionable than hers had been. A lot more questionable. Scott had thought the same thing, when he confronted Derek about turning Issac, Boyd, and Erica.

"But it's the medication that's keeping you from rolling around on the ground all day. Equal parts control and your animal brain." So, yeah, he might know a bit about this. He was curious, and knowledge for him and his pack is better than none at all.

His pack of... one. Barely.

Derek has no control on his life, either, but he's not about to tell her that.

"Not really."

[pawpular]

She's not going to let him get under her skin. She isn't. A faint hint of red dusts her cheeks, but Maya is just going to ignore that, because screw that.

She's on the verge of bristling when he makes that comment about the medication, and she could get annoyed about that too, but he's spiked her curiosity. "You looked into that?" And he gets an eyeroll. "Right, I forgot. You only smile when giant animals are trying to maul you."

[tsunderek]

He's under her skin.

"Any information is good information to have." It has nothing to do with her and everything to do with wanting to know the enemy as much as possible, just in case.

"I smile for other reasons, just not right now."

[pawpular]

"In case we turn out to be the enemy, right?" She shoves her hands into the pockets of his jacket, absently wriggling her fingers to see if anything's inside them as she starts walking back towards town, where her clothes are. She doesn't sound offended, or even surprised. It's not like the thought hasn't occurred to her about them, after all. Not because they're werewolves or anything, but because they're strangers.

Maya tosses a grin back at him. Pretend you're not naked, pretend you're not naked. "Bullshit. That was the first time I've ever seen you smile. Thinking you're funny when you're being a jerk doesn't count."
