In regards to LM#2 and going to bed/sleeping. Last night was better to the point I didn't get upset or try and reason with him. I sang him a song, told him he had three questions and then I was leaving. We went through what would happen if he got out of bed.
He asked his questions, there were smiles. I went to leave and he freaked out, trying to get me to stay. I continued because I had given him his three questions, and he followed me out. So I picked him up, reminded him what would happen if he got out of bed, put him back and then closed the door. He cried and yell that I "wasn't nice" and it "wasn't fair".
He woke at 12:30, wanting to get out of bed, I said no. I tried to calm him down before I left, but it didn't work and he went to get out of bed, so I closed the door again. He woke at 5:50 and I told him it wasn't time he needed to lie there until I came and got him. *sigh*
As punishment last night (for the previous nights shenanigans) he was not allowed to watch tv, so once again he was in the dining room playing with cars or puzzles.
TV
Teen Wolf: S3, E3: Fireflies Ahh the virgin storyline starts. I've seen it referenced in fic *g* Points to Stiles for figuring something out, he was very observant, although he needs to work on who, nice to see he already knows most of 'why'.
I also enjoyed that Lydia called Stiles for support, and I really love that she called the police first, because, yes, that is what you would do. :) I'm starting to love Lydia more and more. (And I keep finding Allison a tad more annoying).
Derek, Scott and Issac working together was nice, but bringing Argentinto the mix was interesting, and very necessary. There were a lot of things in this ep that shows what a good Alpha Derek could be. The scene with him holding Erica, that was touching, he seemed so upset. He wanted to save Boyd and Cora and not kill them, although he had to be convinced to work with Argent. And then going into the boiler room to save the teacher, alone. And it was hard to watch as he was shredded by Boyd and Cora and yet he was able to get through it. But he was alone. He's suffered so much in life.
Scott gets an "A+" for manipulating Argent so smoothly, seriously, give me a ride to the crime scene? As Derek follows in a vehicle that could hold all of us? Well played Scott. *g*
Now for the nitpicking. There is no teacher on this earth that would be at a high school, at that time of night. It was in the wee AM hours, like 4am. There is no school that stores old books/records in the boiler room. I figure that might be considered a fire hazard, no? Kind of a weak plot device to get Derek into that room being all self sacrificing. :)
I am working from home tomorrow, so I am planning to go back to bed after the boys leave and begin work at 8:30. And we get out early tomorrow for the Labor Day weekend. I'm trying to get more sleep. Think it will work?
