[Isaac looks down at that, not sure if it's guilt or shame or- or what, that makes him feel so awkward about his relationship with Scott and how it overwhelms the one he had with Derek. So he just nods once, not wanting to acknowledge Derek actually leaving- not knowing if they left on even remotely good terms. From the sounds of it, they didn't.

The fact that Derek was trying to get away from Beacon Hills- from him- doesn't escape him, and Isaac leans over to set his coffee down with a soft sound.]

...you just see failure when you look at us- don't you? Not ours, but- [He can only imagine the guilt at getting two teenagers killed and sending a third to be taken care of by someone he considered a rival. Maybe that's why Derek hasn't wanted to be around them. Maybe that's why their relationship has been strained.]

[ derek can't deny the guilt, or the failure. it's always there, especially here in asgard, where he has erica's anger to deal with. justified as it is, he has no idea how to heal those wounds when she's gone back home and he can't change it. ]

I haven't exactly succeeded. Not with any of you.

[ least of all erica and boyd, but he'd failed isaac too, ultimately. ]

Fixing things back home isn't an option anymore... But I'm not entirely sure how to go about it here, either.

[ look at that! honesty. ]

[Isaac just offers a loose shrug at that, not really sure of what to say. He doesn't even know how old Derek is, how much pressure that he'd put on him to succeed when the alpha probably didn't know what to do at all. It takes Isaac a few more moments to try and sort his thoughts before he finally offers Derek a wry smile.]

You know... I never know how to act around you either. [HONESTY. It's happening. Things are going places.

The smile actually goes a little genuine, and if they were any closer then Isaac would bump their shoulders together. So... it's probably for the best that they're not.]

I'll put in a good word with Erica. See if we can all maybe level a little.
