After the trauma of his Mother's death, Stiles had always dreaded the concept of soulmates and convinced himself for years if he hated them enough, he'll never have to worry about finding one.

So what will Stiles do when he finds out that he has not only one but two soulmates. Both of them are fucked up, grown-ass men who can't be left in the same room for five minutes without lunging at each other's throats.

what  is  lydia?

the  show  revolves  around  a  group  of  teenagers  who  become  immersed  in  the  supernatural  world  mostly  by  accident.  in  the  season  one  finale,  a  werewolf  named  peter  hale  bites  lydia  and  changes  the  course  of  her  life  forever.  the  bite  should  have  either  killed  her  or  transformed  her  into  a  werewolf,  but  neither  happened.  instead,  she  became  a  banshee.  

banshees  are  creatures  that  predict  imminent  death.  their  scream  serves  as  a  warning  to  those  around  them  that  death  has  either  just  occurred  or  is  about  to  occur.  furthermore,  lydia’s  hearing  is  attuned  to  a  frequency  most  people  can’t  hear.  the  plucking  of  a  string  or  the  brush  of  something  against  her  skin  can  incite  whispers  that  lead  her  towards  the  dead  and  dying.  oftentimes  she  will  enter  a  fugue  state  and  find  herself  stumbling  upon  a  dead  body  completely  unbeknownst  to  her  (  as  you  can  imagine,  it’s  pretty  traumatizing  for  a  teenage  girl  ).  most  recently,  she  has  developed  the  ability  to  shatter  bone  with  her  scream  and  manipulate  sound  waves with  her  body.  this  allows  her  to  fight  and  protect  herself  when  needed.  

what  caused  lydia  to  go  dark?

season  five  was  a  pretty  rough  season  for  lydia.  predictions  of  death,  kanima  tails  creating  massive  wounds  in  her  side,  thousand-year-old  beasts  ripping  her  throat  out,  and  a  homicidal  chimera  sending  her  into  a  catatonic  state?  yeah,  not  really  her  idea  of  fun.  unfortunately,  things  went  from  bad  to  worse  when  natalie  (  lydia’s  mother  )  committed  her  to  the  psych  ward  at  eichen  house.  though  her  intentions  were  probably  pure,  natalie’s  decision  nearly  cost  lydia  her  life.  

many  awful  things  happened  to  lydia  while  she  was  in  eichen,  but  the  most  important  event  in  regards  to  her  canon  divergent  story  happened  towards  the  end  of  her  stay.  in  order  to  amplify  her  powers,  a  man  named  gabriel  valack  drilled  a  hole  into  lydia’s  temple.  sounds  like  a  great  idea,  right?  mhm.  anyway,  the  amplification  worked  a  little  too  well.  when  valack  attempted  to  place  a  mask  on  lydia’s  head  that  could  potentially  kill  her,  she  screamed.  when  amplified,  her  scream  became  loud  enough  to  literally  shatter  bone.  it  actually  blew  half  of  valack’s  head  off  ———-  needless  to  say,  he  died.  good.  afterwards,  the  pack  was  able  to  rescue  lydia  from  eichen.  unfortunately,  the  damage  was  done  and  lydia  couldn’t  stop  screaming.  

this  is  where  her  dossier  comes  into  place.  during  the  time  the  screaming  wouldn’t  stop,  she  could  be  seen  clutching  her  head  and  tugging  at  her  hair.  i  couldn’t  help  but  wonder  what  she  heard  —–  what  she  saw.  there  reaches  a  point  in  the  episode  where  she  stops  breathing  ——–  and  for  a  moment,  the  boys  believe  she’s  dead.  in  her  main  verse,  she  did  die.  for  just  a  moment,  for  maybe  fifteen-twenty  seconds,  she  died.  the  things  she  saw  and  the  voices  she  heard  were  too  much  for  her  to  process,  and  so  her  mind  simply….  shut  down.

those  few  moments  triggered  a  change.  when  she  woke  up,  something  dark  lingered  under  the  surface:  her  inner  banshee.  preoccupied  with  death  and  a  thirst  for  power,  her  very  core  nature  has  started  to  overpower  the  human  girl  trapped  inside.  essentially,  a  war  is  brewing  within  her  —–  a  war  between  lydia,  the  human,  and  lydia,  the  banshee.

has  lydia  spiraled  out  of  control  yet?

NO?  ———-  my  original  intention  was  to  start  off  with  a  very  dark  and  twisted  lydia.  when  she  opened  her  eyes,  her  banshee  nature  had  already  consumed  her  and  the  murderous  rampages  would  start  right  away.  but,  as  i’ve  been  writing  in  this  au  for  quite  some  time,  I’ve  come  to  the  realization  that  it’s  not  quite  so  simple.   lydia  martin  is  stronger,   stronger  than  even  I  anticipated,   and  the  girl  beneath  the  monster  isn’t  afraid  to  put  up  a  fight.  for  most  of  the  year  after  she  woke,  she  fought  desperately  against  the  urges  suddenly  creeping  their  way  into  her  heart.  tried  to  ignore  the  anger  settled  deep  into  her  bones,  not  give  in  to  the  desire  to  craft  her  scream  into  a weapon  used  to  incite  destruction.  she  put  up  a  brave  fight  and  kept  the  darkness  at  bay  the  best  she  could,  but  now?  now  she’s  slipping.

YES?  ———-  every  day  it’s  a  little  worse;  every  morning  a  little  darker  —–  and  she  likes  it.  for  the  longest  time,  she  hated  herself  for  it.  hated  that  she  kept  wanting  to  give  in.  now,  though?  there’s  a  certain  satisfaction  that  comes  with  the  black  anger  thrumming  under  her  skin.  power  like  she’s  never  had  before;  an  ability  to  do  something  in  the  face  of  grave  danger.  it’s  a  lethal  combination  for  her  —–  the  magnitude  of  the  darkness  and  her  almost  nonexistent  resolve  not  to  give  in.  

will  lydia  hurt  my  character?

though  lydia  lacks  the  ability  to  care  for  the  majority  of  people  she  encounters  (and,  thus,  throws  away  innocent  lives  without  a  second  glance  or  thought),  i’m  still  more  than  capable  of  dictating  what  she  can  and  cannot  do.  if  we  haven’t  discussed  her  using  her  powers  against  your  character,  she  won’t  do  it.  this  doesn’t  mean  she’s  going  to  be  nice  to  your  character  (unless  the  need  arises  for  manipulation  purposes),  but  she  won’t  use  her  scream  as  a  torture  device  or  attempt  to  murder  them  without  your  expressed  permission.

All That Was Lost

read it on the AO3 at http://ift.tt/2HAKDsT

by Jadis

After college, Stiles returns to Beacon Hills and embraces his magical ability. While he’s embracing something he’s long ignored, other factors are moving that will impact the entire pack and nothing will ever be the same.

I suck at summaries. Basically, this is my fix it. Here is what you need to know: The Hale house shell is still there. Very little in canon after Season 4B happened in this ‘verse. Though you will find some themes and people did trip into my world.

The entire first draft of this bad boy is done. It just needs to be edited, but I needed to get it moving again so I'm committing to it! A new chapter should go up daily for the first 20 chapters. The last five need a bit more work.

Obviously, I own nothing. Except for all the errors. It is unbeta'ed.

Hey!!! 😇 I have read like all fics on your coming out tag page, when you have time can you update them? Today It's my one year anniversary of coming out!!! ☺️☺️☺️ -B

Happy Belated Anniversary! Sorry it’s a little late but we’re so happy we could celebrate with you! Here’s the tag for everyone else. - Anastasia

Taking Bets by S_Horne

(1/1 I 406 I General I Sterek)

“Dad, Mel” Stiles started. “I'm gay.”

With a sudden boost of confidence, Stiles reached a hand out to take a hold of one of Derek's.

“And this is my Derek” he continued, turning his face to meet the other’s gaze.

/

Stiles has a confession for his parents, and they have one for him!

Dream a Little Dream of Me by 42hrb

(1/1 I 830 I Teen I Stanny)

Coach pairs Stiles and Danny in a hotel for a lacrosse trip, it turns out they have some stuff to talk about.

About Damn Time by fancyachatup

(1/1 I 903 I General I Sterek)

It's essentially Teen Wolf, except that there are such things as soulmates.

Deal? by fancyachatup

(1/1 I 921 I General I Sterek)

Only Peter is evil and it's for like 1 sentence. +Basically Sheriff answers a domestic violence call and Stiles hits on Derek while simultaneously coming out.

The Person He Loved In So Many Different Ways by QueenofCrazy

(1/1 I 1,136 I Not Rated I Sciles)

“Bro.” He whispered, hands gripping his knees and fingers tapping. “Bro you uh, you left your porn up on your laptop that I borrowed for my presentation.” Scott felt his face heat up. He knew what porn Stiles was talking about, how could he be so stupid not to check it before giving it to Stiles.

Sourwolves Do it Better by siao

(1/? I 1,406 I Explicit I Sterek)

In another time, in another place, but not exactly as the story still occurs in the much beloved town of Beacon Hills, Stiles Stilinski is a quirky (kind way of saying a walking disaster) teenager just trying to figure out his life in the wake of his parents uncommunicated separation, and being the perpetual third-wheel to his power couple friends Lydia and Jackson that makes him question if their friends because they happened to have playdates in the e-old age or because their parents gave them no choice but to be friends.

And yeah, maybe having sex with a complete stranger in the supply closet at school wasn't his brightest idea - sue him, but how was he supposed to know that his one time fling that he wanks since forth was his English teacher?

Throw in teenage werewolves, alphas, hunters and some kind of demon tree that may or may not be trying to seduce him into being evil and what you got is a whirlwind romance that's not quite legal but profound all the same.

Two Hearts in One Home by TheMipstaz

(1/1 I 1,851 I Explicit I Malia/Kira)

In which Kira bakes 11 pies.

Silver and Cold by inatshej

(1/1 I 2,044 I Mature I Steter)

Stiles admits to himself finally that it is cold, quiet and lonely. It didn't change when he met Peter, but at least he could forget about it. Somehow the thing with Peter ends up hurting him even more.

And The Oscar Goes To by 42hrb

(1/1 I 2,241 I Teen I Sterek)

Being publicly in the closet means Stiles can't go to the Academy Awards with who he really wants, but it's not like he's going to win so he doesn't have to worry about slipping up and thanking Derek in his speech... right?

Outed by smokesforsterek

(1/1 I 2,419 I General I Sterek)

Nancy O’Dell was standing on her chic set but in the background on one of the set pieces was a obviously zoomed in and blurry picture of Derek and Stiles kissing on the beach.Fuck.

or the one where Derek and Stiles are famous and secretly dating, and are caught. So naturally the only thing to do is pretend they're making a movie.

Heavy Is The Head by tragicama

(1/? I 2,574 I Explicit I Sterek)

Heir Prince of France, Derek Hale is tired of his royal life.

When he meets a palace servant named Stiles, everything changes.

Or, the one where Derek falls in love with his own Prince Charming.

Awake by reillyblack

(1/1 I 3,441 I Mature I Sterek)

Stiles was too goddamn old for a sexual awakening.

Never Been Subtle by totallyrandom

(2/2 I 3,886 I Teen I Sterek)

Stiles has something important to tell Scott, but Scott’s not making it easy.

Green Beer and the Howling Wolf by TVTime

(1/1 I 4,152 I Teen I Stisaac)

Stiles, Isaac, and Scott go out drinking for St. Patrick’s Day and Stiles discovers that his hopeless crush on Isaac may not be as hopeless as he thought.

Stiles-centric/Stiles POV, dialogue-heavy college AU story with no powers. Primarily humor with some fluff and Stisaac romance. Alternate character histories. Isaac is Scott's adopted brother.****Stiles held his arms out and turned around in a circle. “I look okay right?”

Scott’s face lit with understanding. “Ah, someone wants to get lucky on St. Paddy’s Day.”

Stiles didn’t deny it, just changed the subject – well, technically he didn’t change the subject, but Scott would think it was a change of subject. “So when’s Isaac getting here?”

Trust by live_laugh_murder

(1/1 I 4,436 I Teen I Steo)

Stiles always knew Theo Raeken couldn't be trusted. But he seems to forget that when the werewolf gets under his skin.

Out in the Open by inmydreams

(1/1 I 5,188 I Teen I Sterek)

Derek Hale, successful actor and Oscar winner, is ready to come out and where better to do it than on his boyfriend's chat show?

Indecent Proposal by lavieboheme0919

(1/1 I 5,432 I Explicit I Stetoper)

Peter and Chris have been married since they were in their twenties. Stiles is introduced to the mix after Peter meets him in the showers at the on-campus gym. All of them love the relationship they're in. Unfortunately none of them know how to explain said relationship to Stiles' dad.

This is the first of a series I'll be working on as I work on my other story, "Gods and Monsters." This one will be heavily focused on sex. If I missed any tags, please let me know. As always, comments welcome and encouraged!

Aparecium by GameCake

(1/1 I 5,446 I Teen I Sterek)

“Hey, Derek, look! Aquamenti!” Stiles yelled laughing.

His laugh though was short-lived as his hand tickled the same time as water shot out of the tip of his fake wand?

What?

“Whatever you did, wherever you found it, put it back!” Derek ordered flashing his alpha crimson eyes.

“Do you really think it is a good idea to leave it here unattended? What if a kid takes it? What if someone said ‘Avada Kedavra’” Stiles defended as he flayed his arms around.

That proved to be another bad choice. His hand buzzed again and lightning escaped the wand and stuck an innocent tree. Which immediately cracked and started decaying to the point that it looked sick and… well… dead.

There were a few bits of silence after that until Derek spoke up. “That’s it! Put it back now.”

*

Or the one where Stiles finds a wand that responds to Harry Potter spells, is apparently a mage and gets a boyfriend out of it.

Don't hate me for who I am by AnnSnape

(2/6 I 5,649 I Mature I Sterek)

It was Christmas when Stiles pack rejected him for being different and Stiles, who turned for the first time, had to run away from his own pack to survive.

Closeted by stilinski_wolf

(2/2 I 7,483 I Teen I Sterek)

Derek is part of a very rich, very conservative - and very homophobic - family, and so he has to hide who he truly is from them.

And then, Derek takes a liking to the new bartender working at the gay bar he frequents, and contemplates coming out to his family.

But his choice is taken out of his hands when his sister Cora follows him one night to the gay bar, changing Derek's life irrevocably.

wolf in the headlights by thedeathlyalpha

(1/1 I 7,581 I Teen I Scisaac)

When Scott finds out that Derek has added a member to the pack, he can't believe it.

When he discovers who it is, even worse.

As Scott becomes closer to Isaac, feelings develop and the lines blur, making everything just seem so confused.

Getting To Know Me Getting To Know You by alternativename

(3/? I 9,477 I Mature I Steter)

In an Omega verse where Stiles has never really felt comfortable in his own skin, he seeks out the company of other Omegas to help him make sense of the world they live in.

Meeting Peter Hale however was totally unplanned, and so was everything that happened from the moment they met.

And...Action! by defenselesswriter

(5/? I 9,632 I Explicit I Sterek)

"Not looking for casual hookups. Sorry, bro. Most codependent independent person you will ever meet. Part-time actor, full-time asshole who coincidentally preaches positivity. Worst bowler in the world after my best friend. Looking for a guy whose first thought isn’t ‘Can I put my dick in one of his orifices?’ Also super hella bi and might be down for a threesome.”

Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes by huffleluff

(1/1 I 21,866 I Teen I Allydia)

If you had asked Allison Argent if she was straight two months ago, she would have said yes. Now, she isn't so sure.

On her eighteen birthday, she receives the name of her soul mate via a mark on her wrist: seventeen year old Lydia Martin. Her sense of identity suddenly gone, Allison must deal with her feelings for her best friend, her preacher father's homophobia, and learning to love herself for who she truly is--preferably before Lydia's eighteenth birthday in just one year's time.

There's Nothing That I Wouldn't Do (I Found My Way Back To You) by SuperMARVELous

(5/5 I 51,051 I Mature I Sterek)

Four times Derek and Stiles pass each other by and the one time they find their way back to each other.

The Payoff Pitch by Leslie_Knope

(12/12 I 83,974 I Explicit I Sterek)

Derek is on the cusp of his second season with the LA Dodgers, and as the reigning runner-up Rookie of the Year, the pressure’s on him to become the team’s star pitcher and lead them to the playoffs for the first time in five years. He’s trying to deal with the burden of expectations and really has zero desire to spend any extra time or energy on anything that isn’t baseball.

But then he meets Stiles.

Building a Better Chimera: Part Two by Uthizaar

(21/21 I 200,638 I Explicit I Steo I MCD)

Theo returns to Beacon Hills with the task of guiding and protecting Stiles as he becomes one of the most powerful chimeras alive...Well that was the Dread Doctor's plan. Theo has a different idea, and Stiles fits nicely into it, not merely as a fellow chimera, but as something more. Of course, Stiles not being aware of his abilities is but one small obstacle...

many  awful  things  happened  to  lydia  while  she  was  in  eichen,  but  the  most  important  event  in  regards  to  her  canon  divergent  story  happened  towards  the  end  of  her  stay.  in  order  to  amplify  her  powers,  a  man  named  gabriel  valack  drilled  a  hole  into  lydia’s  temple.  sounds  like  a  great  idea,  right?  mhm.  anyway,  the  amplification  worked  a  little  too  well.  when  valack  attempted  to  place  a  mask  on  lydia’s  head  that  could  potentially  kill  her,  she  screamed.  when  amplified,  her  scream  became  loud  enough  to  literally  shatter  bone.  it  actually  blew  half  of  valack’s  head  off  ———-  needless  to  say,  he  died.  good.  afterwards,  the  pack  was  able  to  rescue  lydia  from  eichen.  unfortunately,  the  damage  was  done  and  lydia  couldn’t  stop  screaming.  

this  is  where  her  dossier  comes  into  place.  during  the  time  the  screaming  wouldn’t  stop,  she  could  be  seen  clutching  her  head  and  tugging  at  her  hair.  i  couldn’t  help  but  wonder  what  she  heard  —–  what  she  saw.  there  reaches  a  point  in  the  episode  where  she  stops  breathing  ——–  and  for  a  moment,  the  boys  believe  she’s  dead.  in  her  main  verse,  she  did  die.  for  just  a  moment,  for  maybe  fifteen-twenty  seconds,  she  died.  the  things  she  saw  and  the  voices  she  heard  were  too  much  for  her  to  process,  and  so  her  mind  simply….  shut  down.

those  few  moments  triggered  a  change.  when  she  woke  up,  something  dark  lingered  under  the  surface:  her  inner  banshee.  preoccupied  with  death  and  a  thirst  for  power,  her  very  core  nature  has  started  to  overpower  the  human  girl  trapped  inside.  essentially,  a  war  is  brewing  within  her  —–  a  war  between  lydia,  the  human,  and  lydia,  the  banshee.

HAS  SHE  SPIRALED  OUT  OF  CONTROL  YET?

NO?  ———-  my  original  intention  was  to  start  off  with  a  very  dark  and  twisted  lydia.  when  she  opened  her  eyes,  her  banshee  nature  had  already  consumed  her  and  the  murderous  rampages  would  start  right  away.  but,  i  failed  to  take  one  giant  factor  into  consideration:  stiles  stilinski.  stiles  was  there  from  the  moment  she  opened  her  eyes  (thread).  when  she  awoke  angry  and  intent  on  lashing  out  at  the  world,  he  reacted  with  careful  hands  and  caring  eyes.  he  didn’t  shy  away  from  her  pain,  but  rather  reminded  her  that  she’s  lydia  goddamn  martin  and  she  can  fight  whatever  darkness  has  her  heart  in  its  ironclad  grasp.  he  gave  her  the  strength  to  fight,  and  fight  is  what  she  did.  for  most  of  the  year,  she  fought  desperately  against  the  urges  suddenly  creeping  their  way  into  her  heart.  tried  to  ignore  the  anger  settled  deep  into  her  bones,  not  give  in  to  the  desire  to  craft  her  scream  into  a weapon  used  to  incite  destruction.  she  put  up  a  brave  fight  and  kept  the  darkness  at  bay  the  best  she  could,  but  now?  now  she’s  slipping.

YES?  ———-  every  day  it’s  a  little  worse;  every  morning  a  little  darker  —–  and  she  likes  it.  for  the  longest  time,  she  hated  herself  for  it.  hated  that  she  kept  wanting  to  give  in.  now,  though?  there’s  a  certain  satisfaction  that  comes  with  the  black  anger  thrumming  under  her  skin.  power  like  she’s  never  had  before;  an  ability  to  do  something  in  the  face  of  grave  danger.  it’s  a  lethal  combination  for  her  —–  the  magnitude  of  the  darkness  and  her  almost  nonexistent  resolve  not  to  give  in.  it’s  worse  in  light  of  her  recent  transgressions  —–  the  murder  of  a  boy  who  threatened  stiles’  life;  the  torture  and  subsequent  death  of  peter  hale.  a  perpetual  seeking  of  revenge  &  retribution;  the  thrill  of  the  hunt,  the  chase,  the  win.

ABSOLUTELY,  YES ———  i’ve  been  writing  this  au  for  2+  years.  in  my  wildest  dreams,  i  couldn’t  have  imagined  how  much  s6  would  change  her.  losing  stiles  to  the  ghost  riders  pushed  lydia  over  the  edge.  in  essence,  the  remaining  shreds  of  her  humanity  were  stripped  the  moment  stiles  was  taken.   his  presence  helped  keep  her  stable  –  reminded  her  that  she  had  something  left  for  which  to  fight.  without  him,  she  lost  all  semblance  of  control.  she  went  on  a   murderous  rampage,  obliterating  anything  &  everything  in  her  path  until  she  could  get  him  back.   even  still,  once  stiles  was  returned  safe  and  sound,  she  was  too  far  gone.  lydia  martin  was  gone.   in  her  place,  a  monster.  

WILL  LYDIA  HURT  MY  CHARACTER?

though  lydia  lacks  the  ability  to  care  for  the  majority  of  people  she  encounters  (and,  thus,  throws  away  innocent  lives  without  a  second  glance  or  thought),  i’m still  more  than  capable  of  dictating  what  she  can  and  cannot  do.  if  we  haven’t  discussed  her  using  her  powers  against  your  character,  she  won’t  do  it.  this  doesn’t  mean  she’s  going  to  be  nice  to  your  character  (unless  the  need  arises  for  manipulation  purposes),  but  she  won’t  use  her  scream  as  a  torture  device  or  attempt  to  murder  them  without  your  expressed  permission.
