[ He’s really asking whether Stiles wants to get it all over in one day or spread the lesson out over several. It’s not as though Derek has a routine to follow, right now he can adapt to whatever set-up they decide upon. ]
[ A short and simple nod as Derek thinks over the best way to approach the multiple day idea. ]
We’ll start with five lessons a week. Send me message whenever you’re free. If any lessons are leftover at the end of the week, we’ll be doing them on the last day.

[Stiles nods weakly for a moment, then stronger as it settles.]
Yeah, I think that will work.
Thanks, Derek. Really.
[He gives another quick nod, and then starts for the door.]

[ He means that. With a short 'goodbye' nod, Derek starts to gather his things. Planning on making his own exit shortly after the teen. ]
