GIRL LOCK IN YOURE GONNA DIE

"YOU DON'T KNOW ME"

There's something so painful in that line to me.

Because, Derek is essentially saying "How can you die for someone you don't even know? How can you die for a stranger?"

And while it may seem like Derek is being a bit of a hypocrite---considering he only met Avery a few hours ago, he really isn't.

Because Avery isn't a stranger to him.

He knows Avery. Infinite knowledge let him showed him who Avery was. He knew Avery's name. He probably knew Avery's favorite color and his favorite food. He could literally identify a fake (seemingly identical) Avery.

Derek knew everything about Avery.

Avery wasn't a stranger to Derek.

He was his dearest Avery.

cw: drawn blood

So Avery peeped the horror too. Not for as long or directly as Derek but he did peep it. SO what if he gets little pangs of knowledge every now and again. And he manages to find Derek before it's too late.
