[017. I reveal nothing, both played fate.]

[Her body is still shaking from the scream, from watching Zane kill Vergil when she wakes up in her bed. Her bed. They are back. And she almost rushes right out of her room toward the infirmary when she realizes she has a katana and a necklance in each of her hands. Her hands that are covered in blood. Both items that she retrieved from Vergil's body.
So instead, Lydia takes time to shower, to both clean herself and pull herself together. She knows from experience that, after something like that, no one needs a reminder of what happened, of how terrifying all of it was walking around the Barge. And it helps her, too.
But as she sits down to put on her make up (not bothering to cover the bruises around her neck this time, either. She survived again. Twice). But when she checks the network as she gets ready, her stomach drops again.
Allison, Mr. Powers. Both of their messages tell her something is wrong. Worse, they tell her that things aren't normal. They tell her that some people are still switched even thought they are already on the right barge.
Or maybe they she is on the wrong barge. Their rooms were the same for the most part.
So Lydia ventures her way out of her room and into the hallway slowly. The mountain ash line underneath her door tells her that she really is back in the right Barge. But then, she has plenty of werewolf enemies in the mirror barge, too. She heads toward the Infirmary to check on Vergil. And once she's done there, she makes her way straight to the seventh floor, using her key to get into Stiles' room ]

[A few hours later, it's pretty clear to Lydia that this is the normal barge and that there are plenty of mirror people in there still. Which means she needs to be careful and pretend to be her mirror self for as long as possible. A couple of people already know who she really is, but she trusts Stiles, Allison and Mr. Powers not to out her.
So she puts her best glare on and starts the video. Very visible bruises on her neck both from when Jackson tried to strangle her and from the necklace that Zane used against her have already formed.
If someone she trusts contacts her, she will just switch to private and tell them the truth.]
What the hell is going on?
[ooc: Lydia is not switched. More info here.]

[He squashes any thoughts of how nice it would be mercilessly. It wouldn't be. He has enough. He has Stiles, who trusts him. He has a pack that listens to him. He has loyalty and people who will protect him if he orders them too, even though he'll never need protection.
He has strength. He does. He knows he does.]
I've already got a pack. And sorry, but you'll never be a part of it.
[private video]
And you have betas. Aside from Stiles, you have people you've turned because you needed numbers. They are barely a real pack. They don't know you, trust you, follow you like the rest of us would. Because we're all from the same world, some of us have known each other our whole lives. The connection is stronger. It'd different, and I know you have to know that.
[private video]
[He grins.]
Don't think I've ever had a more loyal beta. And she was my inmate, too. Fastest graduation ever.
[private video]
Can you really trust her not to turn on you when she realizes she has that kind of power? [She knows of Clementine, but not enough to really decide whether or not she'd stick with Scott. Either way, she wants to take away the sense of security he has, so he can be less of this thing, and more of himself.]

[His smiles turns dismissive, and he makes a gesture like he's waving her off.]
I don't care what your Admiral thinks, Lydia. I don't need fixing.
[private video]
I just said you could have people who you could really trust.

[He waves a hand dismissively, writing her off again. He's nowhere near ready ot hear any of it. He kills the feed.]
