Florence sits at home, nursing a glass of wine that won't do any good for her grief.
She didn't want to go fight last night, she tried talking Derek out of it. Saying it wasn't a good idea, but Derek is too stubborn and arrogant to listen.
She regrets arguing with him, as that was the last time they spoke before the fight.... Before....
She downs the rest of her drink before pouring another, hoping somehow alcohol would finally affect her and numb the grief.
"Derek, I understand that you want to go fight them, I want to as well, but I don't think rushing into this is a good plan" Florence says to her nephew, trying to convince him not to rush into a fight
Derek ignores her as Scott walks into the loft
"I know where they are.." Scott starts before drifting off, seeing Florence, Cora, Boyd and Peter with the alpha.
"Same building as the argents, we know" Derek says, finishing Scott's sentence
"They want us to know" Florence says, voicing Scott's thoughts
"Or more likely, they don't care" Peter follows up
Florence nods in agreement. "Which is why we should be careful with out attacks. Just because we know where they are does not mean we should immediately go fight them"
Everyone seems to ignore her as Scott walks over to the table.
"What is this?"
"Isn't it obvious? The schemers are scheming. Coming up with a coup de main. Better known as a preemptive strike" Peter replies
"You're going after them?"
"Tomorrow. And you're going to help us" Derek states to the beta
She hears a knock at the front door as she cleans up her coffee table.
She opens the door to see Chris standing there.
"I'm sorry. I don't feel like talking right now" she says to him. He can hear the sadness and grief in her voice.
"Yes you do. I know you too well Florence. You don't like being alone during times like this" he replies, walking past her and inside the house.
