Blood Fertilized Moss

"What's this bright green moss, you say?"
"...Just some LETHARIA VULPINA."

Can we start out this week by saying what a great actor Dylan O'Brien is? HE IS FREAKING AMAZING!!!!!!!! During this whole episode he was someone good taken over by someone bad pretending to be someone good... If you can wrap your mind around that one. In other words, he is fantastic. 

We started off this episode with Dr. Deaton in Japan. He was pretending to treat the pet wolf of the grandson of the dead Nogitsune (confusion), when in reality he temporarily paralyzed the wolf and the grandson (more confusion). He did this so he could steal the Letharia Vulpina that grew in the grandson's garden. To be more specific, it grew out of the blood of the late Nogitsune on the fountain where he was killed. Dr. Deaton took some to use as a poison for the fox inside Stiles.

We were then taken back to the hospital where there was a power cord descending on Kira. All sorts of death and electrocution occurred before Kira finally ninja flipped over to the cord and absorbed all its power. It was awesome. NOT awesome was when precious Isaac got electrocuted and now MAY DIE!!!!! Thankfully, Scott stopped to visit Isaac on the way to school and sucked away some of his pain <3. 
(badass)
At school, Scott and the twins had gym class and were about to go running when they heard one of Mr. Argent's emitters. They rushed to the basement where they found Stiles who claimed he really was Good Stiles. He knew he had caused all the death at the hospital but thought he might be planning something else, specifically something to do with the cross-country course (*gasp*). Stiles was right and the Coach got shot with an arrow (he will probably be fine). Scott helped again by sucking away some of his pain.

Meanwhile, Chris Argent returned home and sensed someone else was there with him.
(Paranoid yet sexy)
Turns out it's Derek looking for a party of adults!!! Just kidding, he was angry that he found an emitter in his loft. Chris also found the briefcase of money that belonged to Silverfinger in his room. Then right on time, another adult male appeared... Agent McButtface (sorry, I don't like him). McCall said that Silverfinger was dead and took Chris and Derek in for questioning. They figured it must have been Stiles who did all this but get taken to the police station anyway.

At the school they are facing even more problems. They believe that Stiles left a bomb on the school bus, disguised as a birthday present. Low and behold, Jared (puked on a bus in episode 305) has a present on his lap on a bus. After an EXTREMELY handsome policeman opens the present and reveals that it only contains Sheriff Stilinski's name plaque, the Sheriff realizes that the real bomb is at the police station. Chris and Derek are there when it explodes, but thankfully Derek saves them both. The other policemen aren't as lucky and many die. Scott takes away one man's pain up until the moment he dies. 

Now remember how Kira's mom is supernatural? Well, this episode we learned that not only is she a Kitsune, but she also has multiple tails that when snapped create Oni. She used up most of her tails to create stronger and more powerful Oni, and sent them to battle Stiles. Scott and Kira fought them off but not before Scott got stabbed in the stomach. Kira was about to pull it out when Stiles suddenly stopped her and knocked her out. Stiles then proceeded to TWIST THE SWORD AROUND SCOTT'S INNARDS. Apparently, Stiles had been evil the entire episode and he showed Scott by eating up all the pain Scott had sucked away earlier. It was very disturbing and wonderfully acted. And then Dr. Deaton showed up, fresh off his flight from Japan, and stabbed Stiles with the poison. 

The only other noteworthy news from Letharia Vulpina is regarding Lydia and Peter. Lydia went to Peter for help with her banshee powers. He explained that her scream is what helps her to hear what she needs to hear (ex. The electricity buzzing in Galvanize). In return, Peter asks Lydia to try to hear a stolen memory of Peter's that Talia took. She eventually hears a baby crying/woman giving birth, implying that Peter is a father. Lydia and Allison figure it is Malia, but who really knows. Also, does this mean the mother is Talia?? That would explain why Malia is a coyote and not a wolf. When incest occurs so do genetic defects... Or if he had her with a human and now Malia is half-wolf... I DON'T KNOW. 

Sorry, that was just my brain speaking... Have a WOLFTASTIC week!!!!!! :D

P.S. Sorry if my tenses don't stay the same in the post. I try really hard and almost always fail and give up. Don't shoot me.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON

My mind is full of riddles after... RIDDLED!!!!!!

Soooo... This week's shiz storm started off with a sleepwalking Stiles calling Scott in the dead of the night. Stiles calls saying he is in a basement with his foot caught in a trap. It is the coldest night of the year (20 degrees... REALLY TEEN WOLF!!!!?!?!??) and Stiles thinks there is someone with him. Scott screams and shouts (and let's it all out) to wake up Isaac so they can go searching. They head to Stiles' house at the same time as Lydia and Aiden, who had been in the school working on art/sexy things when Lydia heard voices. They meet in Stiles' room where they discover Stiles' own art project; taking all his red yarn, tying it to a pair of scissors, and stabbing them into his bed. Baffled, Scott and Isaac head to the police station to tell Sheriff Stilinski what has happened while Lydia and Aiden stay behind. The police find Stiles' car at the hospital and after sniffing around Scott concludes (with the help of Derek) that Stiles was in fact there and stressed out, but left. Back at the house, Lydia discovers that she can hear voices when she plucks the strings, which leads her to believe that Stiles is in the basement of the mental hospital that Barrow was committed. They all rush there but find nothing (although the viewers see what the gang missed; the symbol for "self" scratched into the wall). Agent McCall uses his big boy brain and figures out that Stiles is still sleeping and just THINKS he's in a basement, when in reality he is in the coyote cave (what happen to that story line?). They save the poor screaming Stiles and send him straight to the hospital.

The whole time Stiles was in a cave, he truly believed he was in a basement with a bandaged man with creepy , steel teeth. The man is (I believe) the Nogitsune inside Stiles' mind. The Nogitsune is sneaking around, speaking in Japanese and riddles, and referring to a "we". He say, "We are trying to save you. We're trying to save your life." Who is this "we"? The Nogitsune draws a "self" symbol on the wall which disappears in a dramatic fashion, but before it does we get this image. IT TOTALLY LOOKS LIKE A FACE!!!!!!!!!!
As I said, the Nogitsune is asking Stiles riddles that Stiles answers very quickly but one trips him up... "Everyone has it, but no one can lose it." Mama and Agent McCall save Stiles before he has the chance to answer.

Meanwhile, Allison is missing all the fun because her phone is off  even though she never turned it off. Upon turning it on she discovers tons of messages from a blocked number. The messages are in Japanese and after having Kira's dad translate them, they discover it is a recording of a man reading instructions to prisoners arriving at a fake Japanese holding camp in WWII (???????????). 
At school the next day Lydia is hypersensitive to loud noises, especially those of Stiles getting an MRI. She can't escape these bangs and clangs and leaves school so she can  SCREEEEAAMMMSS!!!!! 
We also have Derek getting some quality bonding time with Kira after he abducts her at school and takes her to the power substation. She tells him all she knows about foxfire, which isn't much to be honest. Derek believes that Barrow used the foxfire created by Kira to jump start the Nogitsune inside Stiles (?????????).

That same day at the hospital Stiles is having tests done to see if he has the form of dementia that his mother died from. He most likely does, in which that case Scott will bite him up. During the MRI Stiles gets taken back into the Nogitsune Dream World (this should be a thing) where the Nogitsune says he is going to "kill all of them".... yayyyy death. Stiles figures out the answer to the riddle, "Everyone has it, but no on can lose it." The anwer is "your shadow". Upon discovering this, Stiles turns around only to see that the Nogitsune has taken off his bandages and now has Stiles' face. The Nogitsune takes over Stiles' body and causes all the power to shut off so he can escape and have a conversation with Kira's mom (KIRA'S MOM!!!!!!). She tells Dark Stiles that she's going to take him down with the help of the Oni and Kira. Dark Stiles replies by attempting to kill Kira, from what it looks like. I'm just so happy Kira's mom is a mythical creature!!!!

The only other note worthy thing in the episode was the relationship between Scott and Derek. They were working together, or as Derek put it, "sharing a few trade secrets". Derek also told Scott that he took Cora back to South America (Scotland) and talked to his mother. I'm sure there was more to their conversation, but Derek said that when he talked with his mom she told him that the Hales hadn't just lived in Beacon Hills, they had protected it. It was a nice moment :)

Have a WOLFTASTIC MOONDAY!!!!!!!!

The Forecast of Stiles' Well-Being

WHAT IS UP WITH STILES?!?!?!?

This is my prediction for what exactly is happening with Stiles....

          It was said in a previous episode (I think) that Stiles was the only one in the room when his mother died. I believe that his mom was being possessed by this dark spirit and her mind was trying to reject it. That is what was causing the hallucinations, blackouts, and inability to sleep. This internal war eventually killed her, because her mind decided the only way to save itself was to kill her (this could be wrong). Once she died the spirit needed somewhere to go and moved to the nearest living thing, Stiles. Maybe this drained the spirit of its powers or something else caused it to sleep, but the spirit remained dormant in Stiles until he sacrificed himself. This woke the spirit up and now Stiles' mind is trying to fight it off like his mother did. That is what is causing the horrible things that will probably kill Stiles, if the Oni don't get there first. 

Is is wrong to hope I'm right? Because I totally do... I don't want Stiles to die but I think this would be awesome. You can leave a comment about what you think will happen to Stiles down below. Also, I'm interested to see what people think happened to Malia and her father. Have we seen the last of them, or will they came back?

The Boyish Looking Man

I'm sorry I'm so late but I believe there is still time to discuss...
SILVERFINGER
This episode was very much an information/discovery episode that answered a lot of questions while creating millions more. So it was pretty much awesome.

We started this episode with Mr. Argent finally explaining his connection to the demonic ninjas. He had encountered some on a business trip in Japan where they basically killed everyone in their sight except Mr. Argent and a few Japanese employees, including Silverfinger. Mr. Argent shot one of the ninjas in the head and saved Silverfinger's life. After explaining all this Mr. Argent, Allison, and Isaac decide the best way to figure out the demonic ninjas purpose is to find to Silverfinger and talk to him.

Meanwhile, Scott and Kira were continuing to be the cutest couple EVER!! Scott showed Kira his wereface (which is hideous to be honest) and she wasn't disgusted OR terrified. They also shared the sweetest moment when Kira said that foxes and werewolves don't get along and Scott replied with, "those are just stories". I ship them so hardcore. 
Also during that day, Scott was being guarded by not only the twins but also sexy Derek. Scott was getting irritated and escape them by breaking the twins motorcycles AGAIN!! The twins looked super mad/sad but I don't know why because THEY ARE WEREWOLVES. THEY COULD HAVE JUST CHASED SCOTT!!! (That made me angry.) Anyways... Scott took Kira to his house to wait for the sun to set and for Mama McCall to return home and set the home security (*Gerard's voice* MOUNTAIN ASH!!!). She was a little late and Agent McCall got there first, only to find the demonic ninjas arriving also. He went to investigate the shady figure and got stabbed in the chest... oh darn. Then Derek and the twins showed up and as a group they kicked the ninjas out and Mama McCall set the security.

Isaac, Allison, and Mr. Argent successfully broke into Silverfinger's home, but not before Allison and Isaac shared a VERY passionate smoochy ;) Once they were in his house they quickly found him and began to talk once Silverfinger realized who Mr. Argent was. Silverfinger told them that the demonic ninjas are actually called Oni. They are demons that are looking for a dark spirit or Nogitsune, which is a dark or void kitsune. Silverfinger explained that you can't fight an Oni but only endure it. He also clarified what the backwards 5 meant. The Oni were checking all supernatural creatures to see if they possess a "dark spirit". If they don't the Oni leave the backwards 5 which is a Japanese for "self", meaning they are themselves. That means the Oni are looking for "one that is no longer themselves". Silverfinger also advises them that if the Oni find this Nogitsune, they should let them kill it. 

With this new information Scott feels confident that neither Kira or himself possess this dark spirit and let the Oni check them. They both test negatively leaving everyone wondering who the real Nogitsune is... Also during this scene it was officially revealed by Derek that Kira IS a kitsune, and thankfully a good one. Plus, while Agent McCall was "dying" he said that he needed to talk to Scott about the real reason he came back to town but Mama wouldn't let him... interesting...

    And now what everyone really wants to talk about... STILES!!!! 

At the beginning of the episode Stiles tried to show Scott the key and coded message but both were gone. Stiles was quite distressed about this and Scott recommended him to just go home. Stiles instead went to the hospital and got examined by Mama McCall. She decided he was sleep deprived and gave him some sedatives so he could take a nap. This allowed the most gut-wrenching moment to occur while Stiles was falling asleep. While he was drifting off, Stiles mumbled "thanks mom" to Mama McCall *sobs*. This encouraged Mama McCall to compare Stiles' symptoms to his late mother's and they had very similar symptoms indeed. Later in the episode, after all of the fun with the Oni, Stiles woke up. He went looking for Mama McCall, but instead the Oni found him. They surrounded Stiles and began to test him when all of a sudden he got a weird look in his eyes and fought back. He killed one of the Oni by ripping out its firefly heart and the other two Oni evaporated in fear. Then Scott walked in the room and asked Stiles if he is okay, to which Stiles replied totally normal, "yeah". YOU ARE NOT FINE STILES!!!!

So basically, Stiles is being possessed by a dark spirit and doesn't know. And the spirit is doing a good job at keeping Stiles from finding out. He is being hunted by the Oni and now probably the Argents too, but apparently he can fight back. (I will post my theory to all this in a different post that you can check out later.)

My only other note from "Silverfinger" is, where were Lydia and Peter??? Probably making out in a broken down house if you ask me... Have a WOLFTASTIC MOONDAY!!!
