THANK F*CKING GOD!!
I feel like that was honestly the closest we have ever come.
I was SO F*CKING STRESSED I CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU!!!
Holy F*CK.
GOD!!!
ANYWAYS!!!
Thank GOD for Satomi.
Thank GOD for Deaton.
Thank GOD for Derek.
Thank GOD for Melissa.
Thank GOD for Rafael.
Thank GOD for Stiles.
Thank GOD for Kira.
Thank GOD for TRUE ALPHA SCOTT MCCALL!
GOD THAT WAS CLOSE!!
TOO CLOSE!!!
HOLY F*CK!!
Also I'm really freaking hoping that Malia is just storming away because she's mad that nobody told her and not mad because she's gonna leave Stiles and leave the pack, because that would be all kinds of messed up and make me all kinds of mad.
Really, I'm guessing she's just hurt that nobody told her.
But Stiles, of course, is going to assume that he lost her forever, which sucks for his mental state, ESPECIALLY after everything they just went through.
But I'm sure she'll come back.
She HAS to come back?
...right?
Anyways LET'S TALK ABOUT THE GOOD THINGS AND ALL THOSE AMAZING SAVES!
Order of events, because this time I can do that and STILL END with that AMAZING SCILES MOMENT!!!
Anyways.
Freaking Rafael ex-machina oh my GOD. That man is seriously following his redemption arc full force and as far as I'm concerned, REDEEMED. ALL THE CHECKMARKS! REDEEMED, SIR!! (Also quick aside, Satomi is a f*cking bad*ss. Anyways.)
The way that Stiles was clearly soooo terrified, but used his humor to put up that mask, solely because he would never, EVER betray his friends, no matter what.
But then the way he flinches, just slightly, as "The Chemist" (as IMDb dubs him) is about to hit three...
And okay, between the scene with Malia, and how freaking close to getting shot he really was, and then the GUNSHOT SOUND--
Yeah I was genuinely terrified that Stiles was gonna die, and I KNOW he's in future episodes, but my heart didn't care.
But THANK GOD for Rafael, because THERE HE F*CKING WAS!
And Stiles was shaking, and terrified, and clearly anxious, but he was so quick to recenter himself and focus up and hear and process what Rafael was saying (thank GOD for Melissa with that phone call we love you! <3) and he RAN SO F*CKING FAST TO SAVE HIS FRIENDS!!
AND THEN IT'S THE FREAKING SCILES MOMENTS!!
The way that Stiles books it and just screams and shouts even as he runs, hoping Scott can hear him.
The way Scott is on the other side, trying to get himself to stand up, trying to get himself to hear what Stiles is saying, trying to do what he's asking him.
The way that Stiles just keeps shouting, begging for Scott to answer, banging on the door, and even though Malia's in there, and Kira's in there, the ONLY PERSON that Stiles is thinking about is SCOTT.
The way that Stiles just starts banging and screaming and pushing with EVERYTHING HE HAS because SCOTT'S NOT ANSWERING and STILES ISN'T THERE and he CAN'T GET IN and HIS BEST FRIEND IS DYING and there's NOTHING HE CAN DO.
The way he just collapses to the ground, defeated, thinking he failed, thinking he lost his best friend, thinking it's all his fault.
The way the camera pans to Scott, on the other side of the room, in the EXACT SAME POSITION on the ground, because even when they're separated, they're still in sync, and still together, and still have each other's backs—literally and figuratively.
The way that we get a little bit of Scira with Kira's voice finally bringing Scott out of it and getting him to get up and try.
The way that Scott finally gets enough strength to pull out his TRUE ALPHA powers and use his werewolf sight to find the jar and knock it to the ground and SAVE THEM ALL.
The way Stiles stands up in hopeful surprise when the vault door finally opens, and then he stands there staring at Scott as if he doesn't believe it.
The way Stiles is minutes away from tears, and Scott is minutes away from death, and they just lock eyes and stare at each other, reveling in the fact that they're both OKAY, and they're both ALIVE, and they're both HERE, with EACH OTHER.
The way that Stiles just shakes his head and grabs Scott's shoulder, making sure he's really there, before moving that hand to Scott's face so gently in a "you're okay".
The way that Scott just stares at him, trying so hard to catch his breath, but so clearly grateful that he has Stiles here with him.
The way that Stiles finally shakes his head and almost rolls his eyes at how ridiculous this whole thing is, and how CLOSE they came to losing each other, brushing off the terror and horror in the only way he knows how--with sarcasm and sass.
The way that, when all is said and done, even as Scott's holding on to Kira, when Malia walks away, Scott just looks over at Stiles in the upmost concern, because he realizes that Malia knows, and he KNOWS how much her walking away hurts his best friend.
The way that these two would go to the ends of the earth and back for each other and would destroy anyone and anything they had to for each other I just...
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!
YOU WERE RIGHT, @slice-of-magenta!!!
I TOTALLY SEE WHY THIS IS YOUR FAVORITE!!!
I F*CKING LOVE SCILES SO MUCH AHHHH!!!
MY BOYS!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
God what an episode.
That is 100% going in the top five, EASILY.
Because that was SUCH an emotional ride, and it all culminated in some amazing Sciles, and I was here for it the WHOLE WAY!! <3 <3
AHHHH!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!
(I couldn't find any gifs of the reunion scene, but I did find this, and it has ALL the emotion and ALL the worry and I JUST CANNOT WITH THESE TWO THEY LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH AND WOULD LITERALLY DIE WITHOUT EACH OTHER I CAN'T! :'( <3 <3 <3 <3 <3)
