Stiles was just minding his own business, completing a chemistry worksheet, when Theo crashes into his life and Jackson is smiling more than usual.

One-shot!

Theo, throwing a chicken nugget at Stiles’ window: Stop pretending not to like me!

Stiles, opening window: Throw another one and maybe I’ll consider it!

New crack theory: The Dread Doctors use the D&D alingment system for their experiments.

... the Dread Doctors said he’s “the perfect evil” or whatever. So, it’s all very all over the place. // From what I remember the Dread Doctors said that Theo was a failure at being "the perfect evil", they even came to the conclusion that the only way to create that was by corrupting something "truly good" because Theo didn't work. So Theo wasn't really truly evil, but he wasn't actually good either even as a child.

Ok, so… I went back to the transcript and it’s… confusing me. 

SURGEON: But your failure taught us one thing.The banality of evil.That you were and would always be an ordinary evil. 

THEO: You think I’m ordinary? 

SURGEON: We believed that to resurrect the perfect killer we had to start with the perfect evil.From you we learned true evil only comes by corrupting something truly good.

So, they thought Theo was the perfect evil but he ended up being ordinary evil (whatever the fluff that’s supposed to mean)? And is…. true evil something entirely different? It probably isn’t but why do they have to tape three different adjectives to the word evil???? Is the perfect evil ordinary but it’s not true? Is true and perfect interchangeable? Is it “a little evil”, “very evil” and “Umbridge levels of evil?” How am I supposed to read this? And why am I even trying? lol

Are there also ordinary alphas, perfect alphas and true alphas? This has nothing to do with the topic but my brain went there. I’m sorry. 

Theo: (touches Stiles’ thigh under the table in public)

Stiles, internally: You can bet your sweet bippy you’re gonna get some later.

Consider: A fantasy series where the court wizard is treated and portrayed just like an IT guy. Court Wizard, fixing the Queen’s magic mirror: has’t thee attempted cleansing and reapplying the runes anew?
