what is this / 01

[ The transmission starts off audio, a confused voice spluttering to itself as Stiles haplessly hits buttons on his communicator. ]

Okay, well, ya said Cape Kore like that means anything to me, but here's the thing, sucker, is that I've never been to a Cape Anything. --Who even lives near a cape, I'm not a cape kind of --

[ Video! It flips over and the face jumps and makes a few surprised shapes. ]

Well. Hello, guy. That just flashed. Nine-one-one? Hello? I'm, um. I'm not living here. There's been a mistake.

Nothing's impossible.

[A pause, then, thoughtfully--] Well, that's a lie. My first crush ended up becoming my stepbrother. That's fairly impossible.

[stiling]

[ w e l p ]

Okay. That's harsh. I think you win this round.

[porcelainpride]

The very worst part is it was my fault. I set our parents up.

[Pause, wherein Kurt realizes how...insane that sounds...] ...in my defense I was very young.

[stiling]

[ Stiles pauses a moment before he gives a half a laugh. ]

Didn't really think that one all the way through, didja?

[porcelainpride]

We must never speak of it again. [Kurt shoots Stiles a very serious glare.]

[stiling]

Hey, hey, right hand to God. [ He raises a palm. ] Right back atcha, y'know?

[porcelainpride]

Not a word. I swear by whatever deity you may subscribe to.

[stiling]

[ Stiles just nods a few times, sagely. ]

Optimus Prime.

[porcelainpride]

[Pained look.] We'll try and be friends regardless.

[stiling]

[ EH HE'S USED TO IT ]

- Transformers? No? Nothin'? Come on.

[porcelainpride]

Not really my sort of movie. Shia LaBeouf does nothing for me.

[stiling]

Shia LaBeouf does it for nobody, man, it's all the curlies. But Optimus is still the man.

And Megan Fox is a thing.

[porcelainpride]

For some people, she's a thing.

[stiling]

But not your kinda thing.

[porcelainpride]

I can appreciate a woman who can fix a car.

[stiling]

See? That's what I'm sayin'.

[porcelainpride]

I get the feeling your appreciation of her stems more from what she looks like while fixing the cars.

[stiling]

[ Stiles' mouth opens for a moment and just- makes a little creaking noise. ]

It doesn't hurt.

[porcelainpride]

[Bemused look.]

There's no shame in being a horny teenage boy.

[stiling]

Oh, trust me, I remain strong. But it's just the most predictable.
