If they portrayed her character more realistically - i.e she acted more like a shy and unstable girl who lived in isolation for 8 something years rather than conveniently being naked around Stiles to seduce him, and if the writers eased into it over a span of several episodes I could grow to really really like this pairing. But it was just so awkward, and for God's sake how sad is it to lose your virginity on a dirty couch in the basement of a creepy mental institution after being possessed by a an evil japanese spirit? I actually really enjoyed Stiles/Cora in 3A. I thought that had A LOT of potential. Too bad she left the show. I agree. They look good together, but there are far too many issues with it to me. Consent being the beginning. These are two kids who are committed in a mental institution for starters. That right there should be enough for a big red nono flag, without even getting into the whys. Then when you take into consideration that she has been a coyote since she was 9, this girl has not aged and matured like a normal person, she shouldn't be acting like an almost normal teenager. I don't necessarily think she should be timid and shy, but I would certainly expect anti social, possibly with a violent streak.

This could've been a nice ship if they had eased into it more. I actually lose a little respect for Stiles because of it actually. He knows she was an animal for years and has actual legit reasons for being in the hospital, and he didn't care that her ability to consent might not be considered optimal? I've always thought better of Stiles than that. On top of that there's the unsafe sex aspect of it, which shows shouldn't be portraying under any circumstance, unless between two adult married people.

I would've been more okay if they had just had a moment in the basement or maybe even kissed, but having sex? Stiles has been a virgin for so long and he finally loses his virginity to a girl who just the day before punched him in the face? It just didn't feel right. Stiles losing his virginity should've been more special than that.

well, you have to look at the little things that happened before that.

after she punched him, there was that shower scene. she basically sassed the crap out of him before he offered to help her. and then she offered to help him.

she, stiles, and oliver stage a scene to where stiles can get the keys as malia slyly grabs them and gives them to stiles.

later, stiles is trying to unlock the door and fails. brunski finds him and locks him in the quiet room, giving him a shot of hadol to put him to sleep. while stiles is out, malia is looking for another way into the basement. and when she finds one, she goes to find stiles.

malia breaks through the door and wakes him up. they both sneak into the basement.

malia urges stiles to tell her what's going on. he didn't want to tell her because she's shown interest in him and doesn't want her to stop liking him. she tells him that she murdered her family on a full moon. she promises that she wont judge.

then they proceed to look through old papers. stiles lifts his shirt and asks malia if the lines on his back are gone. she touches his back and he shivers at her cold touch.

he holds her hands. and she kisses him. he asked her if it was ok. she nods. he asks if she wants to do it again. she nods. (that is consent, she wasn't drunk. she wasn't on drugs or medication)

they kiss again and she pulls away and takes off her shirt. she wants to try something else and they proceed to have sex.

they both lost their virginities that night. whether on not it was in a basement on a dirty, old couch. every scene leading up to that moment was awkward, cute, vulnerable, and romantic.

... Are you trying to say that all that stuff that happened in ONE EPISODE was relationship build up? Because it's very much not. If those things happened over the course of the season? Sure, I'll give you that as build up. But that's not how it played out.
