The fire also consumes his clothing so... not really a physics problem there. And how exactly is he causing this friction? The only time we've actually seen him combust, he was just sitting down on the nemeton.

Does it really consume his clothing? Sheriff complained about the morgue being hot, I assume parrish had combusted at the time, and steam came out of the sprinklers, dont those things bring out water. So hypothetically he should have caught fire, but his uniform was intact while talking to stilinksi. If that isn't definite enough, he caught fire on the spot and used HIKEN on Theo, and when he took the body, I seem to remember his clothes being intact. But that's not really the point.

I ask how the fire dissapears. Fire doesn't simply vanish, according to conservation law, it is transformed. But Parrishs' fire just dissapears when he's done.
