User blog comment:Truefriend101/I don't feel bad for Derek/@comment-4802762-20130617035424

Nothing that anyone can say will change the fact that none of this is 100% his fault. Do not think that I am justifying his actions in any way but, if I were any of those betas, I would have asked a hell of a lot more questions before just saying yes to something like this, especially if I just found out that werewolves existed. Questions like "Would you like to because a werewolf" are not questions that you answer yes to quickly without knowing a lot more info. I would have pulled out every cliche in the book, from "Does the transformation hurt?" to "So am I going to grow a tail?" Like I said, what Derek did is unjustifyable but the blame cannot be 100% blamed on him because there were multiple parties involved and a choice. It's not like he bit went up to them, told them they were going to become werewolves whether they liked it or not, and bit them. He gave them a choice and they gave him an answer.
