Well like. [ she starts, but has to think for a second for how to even start. ] Like, the how and why is a super long story but I basically got thrown back in time - back when I was totally still a ghost, so it's not like anyone could even see me, but whatever, not the point. [ dismissive handwave with the arm not hanging onto stiles, a little clumsy because of the shots. ] The point is that the place it threw me back to? Was like 30 seconds before Danny freaking up and murdered me. And like, I could see it happening in my head, the way it was gonna go down. So I just - I guess, possessed myself? And punched him in the sack, which started this huge chain of events where in this version of things, I totally didn't die. Et-cetera, et-cetera.

[ only belatedly is she realizing she isn't positive she ever told stiles about being murdered in the first place. or danny. whoops. here's hoping she did. ]

[stiles genuinely can't remember if sally ever told him that she used to be a ghost, but considering she confessed to at one point in time being what basically amounted to a zombie, it's not too much of a shock to him

and it does serve to clear things up a bit for him. he slowly starts to nod as he works through the pieces of the puzzle.]

Okay so. Change for yourself. To where you had an actual physical body with which to to the whole dating thing. That sounds reasonable, I guess. And hey! You still totally have a body right now, too!

Go team! [and he holds up a hand for sally to high five]

[ she grins and high-fives him, because wow, this was so much easier than when she told sirius. ] Soooo yeah, basically my boyfriend is only technically my boyfriend in some weird alternate reality and he has no idea and he's banging this other chick and it's a mess.

[psh, and wizards think they have the market cornered on weird. stiles was adding one and one together and getting werewolf when he was still a sophomore.]

Okay so I've already sort of had this kind of question from someone else up here, and there's no denying that the fact that a lot of us are coming from different timelines than each other definitely complicates things a lot but even setting aside the existence of this other girl he's... banging.

Well I guess it sort of comes down to a pretty simple matter of conception.

[ she leans her head back down to rest against his again. ] I'm not gonna lie, I literally have no idea what you're talking about.

No, no, stick with me on this, okay? [he holds his hands out in front of him, as awkward as it is in this position] Not 'conception' like making a baby, alright.

[a beat] Or maybe a little bit with the other question, but not yours I don't think. And really, feel free not to tell me if it is, unless I get to be a godfather or something. But concepts. That's what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about the fact that this guy you were dating in your alternate timeline, he's used to considering you to be dead, right? Like maybe you aren't right now, but that was the norm he was introduced to in the beginning, yeah.

And it can be a bit tricky to work around the idea of dating a ghost, I guess. Probably.

No, but like - I've totally had a body before. For months, and it made pretty much zero difference. [ not to mention the fact that the aidan she was dating was a completely different aidan than the one she knew before, hard as that is to admit. ]

Nope, no, you're still missing my point here, Sally.

[he holds one finger out in front of her face, wiggles it a little to make sure her attention is on it.] He knew you as a ghost first, right? Then even when you're not a ghost, he's always going to sort of think of you that way in the back of his mind regardless.

[now a different finger on the other hand comes up beside the first one] Whereas in this alternate universe, he met you first while you were alive. So he thinks of you as alive.

Plus. [wrinkling his nose] Is this other time you had a body when you were a zombie because I gotta tell you, zombies aren't super arousing either.
