"Should we want your head on a spike?" 

"It's usually due to the genderfluidity thing, most people don't wanna touch just how absurdly not cis-straight I am with a ten-foot pole."

"We don't make a big deal out of that here. Lacrosse is a big deal. If you're not good, don't try out. I like you, but I'm team captain. I won't like you, if you can't keep up." 

"I will figure out if I'm good when I try it," he shrugs. "But I expect I will be. I'm a fast learner."

"We like that sort of thing around here. Me and Lydia have always felt...under-stimulated."

"Hopefully I can supply."

"I see you and McCall have been hanging out. How's that going?"

"Pretty well. Allison is right, he's nice and genuinely cares about other people. I like Stiles, too, he's funny and really adorable."

"Which one is Stiles?"

"The one who's always clinging to McCall like a deranged squid." 

"Aw come on, he's not a squid. He has only four limbs."

"Yeah, he's more like a weasel, or a deer." 

"Does everbody know him but me?"

"You've met him. And he's weird, but funny. More like a mongoose."

He puts a hand in front of his lips to hide his smile. "It's not very nice to call someone various animals."

"It was a compliment! Well, mine was. Lydia, Jackson, please don't antagonize another one of my friends."

"We'll be very good."

"Have I ever been less than perfectly kind?"

Danny doesn't say anything.

"Ade, depending on how it goes with you and Stiles, we could double."

He does not comment on Lydia's kindness either, but smiles and answers, "That sounds good to me."

"Allison, you and Scott should really get it together, Ade might deflower his virgin before you take yours." 

Allison splutters.

Ade sporfles. "We'll see how that goes. Spoilers, though: I'll win."

"It's not a contest, but I'm pretty sure I would win."
