[ Sometimes, Derek really wishes he could keep Scott and Isaac where they are now: happy, all dimples and wagging tails, eager to please and tease. It'd be so much easier for everyone involved if they didn't have to deal with the troubles of the world outside their pack.
But they deserve every good thing that the world outside their pack can give them, and he'll make sure they get to experience it.
He doesn't reaffirm himself further, simply nods when Stiles first replies. He's not an alpha that goes around just turning people-- there's always been a reason for the bites he's delivered. Isaac was sickly and weak when they brought him in, and he needed it. The bite made Erica's life so much easier, without fear of seizures and illness. Boyd had only ever had her in his life, and that loneliness was something that Derek wanted to alleviate just as much as his son's physical pain.
If any of them had declined his offer, he would've left it at that. Not many other alphas would do the same. ]
Werewolf cop who sidelines as a volunteer teacher. [ He extends his hand from within the folds of his cloak, touching one of Stiles' hat's ears, as if actually scritching. In the end, though, he ruffles it on his head. ] Almost too ridiculous to be real, so it's probably a good thing you're sticking with your humanity.
