This is a big deal. Giovanni had explained every aspect of why, and Scott understands. He's never had a lack of support. Maybe it started with just his mom and Stiles, but he's always had someone there for him.
What if Theo had fully succeeded? That's the only way he has any sense of what could be different. That's the only way he'd understand Giovanni entirely.
That doesn't mean he won't try.]

[It's all about conscious absorption into the pack, rather than someone slipping in unknown. It's always been about that, right from the very beginning, long before he was Alpha in the first place.]
