#on chris argent

[patolemus]

As an Argent hater and un-apologist, I love this.

It is so funny/sad that the people who are the loudest about how dumb TW is, miss basic shit.

Chris is a bad person. Derek has a sense of humor. Peter is a liar. Allison and Derek are vulnerable to manipulation and abuse because they are abuse and trauma survivors.

The Argents infiltrate schools and abuse power and kids. Victoria, Kate, and Gerard do this. Chris knows this is happening. Chris accepts this. I don't care if Chris secretly cries himself to sleep at night. He upholds a violent, abusive, murderous family.

Chris kidnaps Allison and ties her to a chair. He gaslights her. He threatens to kill her boyfriend. He married Victoria and apparently loves her, even though Victoria is a vicious, monstrous person.

How does Chris react when he finds out Allison is dating Isaac? He screams and throws things. He's violent, bigoted, weak. I thought this was why we all liked him!

teen wolf fandom is so silly sometimes but also media literacy is dead lol.

the argent apologism runs deep. chris looks like a good parent and decent person when you put him up against the other members of his family.

i've said it before and i will say it again. chris argent has the moral backbone of a chocolate éclair. the man spent his life looking the other way. he was apathetic towards his sister's depravity until it was shoved in his face and he knew exactly what his father was like which is why gerard didn't see allison for fourteen years.

i also think he only helped allison's friends because allison died trying to protect them. scott becomes his exception not the rule.

he spends a lot of season 1 casually going around intimidating teenagers. teenagers he has no real proof of doing much of anything and in the end jackson, stiles and scott didn't do anything at all.

like don't get me wrong none of this means chris isn't a great and rather complex character but he's not a great person. mr gaslight, girlboss, gatekeep.

i too thought this is why we liked him lol

how it feels to be a teen wolf fan in the year of our lord 2024

[itbeaheadcannon]

i've always just headcannoned that Stiles has keys, passkeys and codes to everyones stuff. you have a house key, car key, or something needing a code? Stiles has several copies on himself and hidden elsewhere.

like this dude has sticky fingers, and eyes everywhere. he's got the ability to get it into the sheriff's station, the school, hospital and vet. like if it's a mildly important place or is just slightly interesting, chances are high; he's got a key and code to get in

every time they try to change codes or keys, he has copies made a day later. no one is safe. no one.

people try to complain to the Sheriff, in the hopes he'll be able to stop him

he tells them all to suck it up.

while Stiles is the light of his life, he's also a feral gremlin,

the sheriff has been trying to keep him out of his stuff since he could walk

stiles also 100% has house and car keys to all of the pack

it drives argent insane that he can't keep him out

they've tried changing their stuff

it doesn't work

he also somehow got their passwords

(it wasn't hard, they're all stupid and have easy to guess passwords)

((besides Lydia and Danny))

[incorrect-teenwolf-quotes]

Chris: If you get in trouble, I'm gonna be like... a lawyer to you. Ok?

Stiles: Okay.

*later*

Derek: Stiles! Sit down on the chair, you're in trouble.

Chris, whispering: Deny everything.

Stiles, loudly: That isn't a chair.

Chris: You ever get so tired you start seeing spiders?

Stiles: Me after I take 17 Benadryl and start seeing The Hat Man

Peter: I'm sorry, you see the wHO?

Stiles: Oooooh, this is not a safe space suddenly.

teen wolf: the movie + words they couldn't say on mtv

[teenwolfpackincorrectcaptions]

Chris: I have a gun, so do as I say and no one gets hurt. Stiles: And I have a death wish, so I’m going to do what I want. Derek: STILES, NO! (source)

peter: you ever in such a bad mood you literally feel yourself turning evil?

peter: had a kiss from chris, not evil anymore

[sototallynormaliswear]

yeah anyway part of the reason that season 2 felt so weird to me is the insistence that the hunters and werewolves of beacon hills are going to war when its AT BEST six werewolves and a stiles (three of which turned for less then two months, another just back from the dead) against 30+ fully trained professional hunters?? not really a war there guys. pretty. pretty one sided actually.

and they were "going to war" over a woman who has been publicly proven to have murdered a family of eleven people, including KIDS, by trapping and burning them alive? who was killed?? by a guy who's family she murdered??? and now HES dead????

like. this season wants you to see Derek as at least a minor antagonist. but his competition is a stalker that kills like ten people and a GUY WITH A SWORD DEDICATED TO CUTTING WEREWOLVES IN HALF. GERARDS INTRO SCENE IS LITERALKY HUM TELLING HUNTERS TO KILL EVERY SINGLE WEREWOLF POSSIBLE NO MATTER HOW HARMLESS. YOU CANNOT TELL ME HES EVEN XLOSE TO A GUY WHOS MAIN CRIME IS STANDING OMNIOUSLY

anyway. I do not care for the Argent family. or the way this season tries to make this a two sided conflict when it very much is not.

TEEN WOLF as movie posters | Season 01 |

Here you can find all the individual posts ✨

if there’s one aspect i could criticize about the writing of teen wolf it’s the in depth backstories of each character only to never talk about it again or develop it any further.

liam’s ied and past school? only used as a prop to further the plot and create conflict (angry man go punch!)

isaac’s abuse and claustrophobia? only mentioned/showed how it effects him one time outside flashbacks (motel california)

theo’s growing up and manipulation with the dread doctors? never mentioned, only lightly brushed over in incoherent flashbacks (yes it shows him being guilty for taking tara’s heart, but not the dread doctors effect on him and torture for him to get where he was)

stiles’ nogitsune trauma? only brought up as a joke after the fact (“i once had a demon living in my head LOL”)

derek hale’s past with grooming by kate? only used to show they know each other, not why what she did was wrong or harmful (doesn’t show the harmful nature of grooming and how derek’s trust would be forever altered because of kate’s abuse of his)

malia living like a coyote for the first ?17? years of her life because she “killed” her own family? “omg you can’t take her anywhere! she likes to eat deer🤣🤣”

allison’s mom killing herself cause she’d rather be anything but a werewolf? mentioned maybe a couple times afterwords

it seems as though they attempt to make the characters deep and thought-out but toss aside the trauma they have given them in order to further the new villian of the week and constant conflict. sometimes i wish that the characters made decisions in conjunction with their prior trauma or showed symptoms of how these events effected them because it’s no secret that they would. i understand that it’s a lot to ask for a super precise and detailed description of how every character is feeling, but with 24 episodes a season, tossing in a couple reflective scenes couldn’t have hurt. i fear that their constant need to one-up their villains took away from the personality and characterization of the show as it kept running.

(this is why i love this fandom so much, because yall do! thank you to the writers who write realistic ptsd or lingering effects of major events)

ok i’m done now thank you @thiamsxbitch for inspiring this rant

Can't stop thinking about this

[incorrect-teenwolf-quotes]

Derek: *walks into the room*

Chris: He's covered in blood again. Why is it he's always covered in blood?

Stiles: Well, it looks like it’s his own blood this time.

I love to see them together. They seem to have the best friendship.
