We all know this scene.

The one where the Sheriff and Argent corner the Nogitsune/Void Stiles in the loft.

There’s one thing I wanted to point out about this scene…

When Chris draws his gun on Stiles and the Sheriff pulls his gun on Chris, the Nogitsune uses emotional manipulation to try and get to the Sheriff, getting teary eyes as he says, “Dad… He’s going to shoot me. He’s going to kill me, dad.”

The next moment, he turns to Chris, completely in control of his emotions, face deadpan and voice steady as he says, “Pull the trigger.”

That’s not the Nogitsune.

That’s Stiles.

He knew the Nogitsune was using him to hurt everyone he cared about and he was ok with dying if it meant they’d be safe. And when Chris doesn’t listen, he gets desperate and shouts “SHOOT ME!”

But you hear it in his voice: the Nogitsune takes a hold again.

Stiles was fighting.
