Fic rec! 21K Sterek, College AU
Summary: Pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale's fraternity.
Comments: Oh, this was a read. I do love Stiles, and him as a freshman leading a range of truly devious pranks is a delight. It takes a bit before Derek realizes he's crushing on Stiles, and it takes Stiles even longer to realize what's going on, but they get there eventually by the end of the year.
Smut is light, but there. There's more in the companion fic that's from Derek's POV if that's your jam. There's more from the others in that fic too - Issac and Boyd and Erica. Issac and Boyd lead the fraternity Stiles and Scott pledge, and clock Derek's feelings early.

Trying to find a sterek fic. I remember it being college / fraternity themed, they had games /bets including sex themed ones, the fic was multi chaptered, and at least one of them was in a fraternity. Other pairings may have been present, sterek end.
Um the only one I can think of is this one.
Tumblr media
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday
(3/3 I 21,004 I Explicit I Sterek)
So far, college has taught Stiles three things:
1) Eight am classes are cruel and unusual and should be avoided at all costs, even if it means having to enroll in something truly hideous instead, like Econ 101.
2) Dorm security is just as tight as Stiles’ orientation leader had promised it would be, and the dude guarding Scott’s dorm in particular does not respond well to bribes.
3) Mrs. McCall clearly had no clue what she was talking about when she’d insisted that Scott and Stiles needed to branch out and room with strangers, so it’s all her fault that Scott ended up with a total dick of a roommate and Stiles got stuck all the way across campus with some guy who has a girlfriend two towns over and is thus never around.
Or, the one where pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale's fraternity.
AND
@queenofwands78 suggested this one!
Your First by Simone (fvckyourfandoms)
(1/1 I 7,278 I Explicit I Sterek)
It's Stiles freshman year of college and he decides to rush a fraternity. He becomes Vice President Derek Hale's favorite pledge and they end up much closer than expected.
or
A story in which Derek can't keep his hands off of Stiles' sweet, irresistible, virgin ass and fails at not feeling him up.

Teen Wolf fanfiction recs — Stiles/Danny
••••••
"How Stiles Stilinski Blocked His Own Shot (To Make-Out)" (T) by salvadore | 7,036 | Danny and Stiles played at marriage as kids, but it didn't end well. Stiles has the chance to make it right. Maybe.
"A Fever Moon" (E) by morphosyntactic | 4,649 | Danny has only ever been human, and he’s pretty sure there’s meant to be some kind of rule, an unwritten moral code of the gay scene: you are not obligated to be every straight boy’s experiment, you should leave them to work through their confusion alone. The thing is, though, Danny is one of just two guys who are out and proud in the whole school. Beacon Hills is a small town.
"The Stilinski Magic" (T) by kim47 | 921 | Stiles kisses Danny. Danny is somewhat confused by this.
"This Is Going To Be A Three 'Dude' Conversation" (M) by Dusk | 1,856 | "Dude," Jackson said, and Danny stopped what he was doing, because when Jackson started sentences with 'dude', he was either about to share something deeply personal or about to try and get them expelled for excessive pussy jokes, and Danny had problems with both of those options.
"Virgin State of Mind" (E) by recrudescence | 3,395 | Stiles needs to get laid or risk becoming the next virgin sacrifice. Fortunately, Danny is an altruistic kind of guy.
"Four Times Danny and Stiles Hooked Up, and One Time They Didn't" (E) by Chash | 1,056 | They're kind of friends at this point--Danny is, according to Stiles, the only other regular human in their group. Allison doesn't count because she's trained in combat, and Lydia apparently has magical immunity or something. So yeah, Stiles thinks this means he and Danny should be BFFs.
"At the Edges" (M) by anonymous | 93,895 | Jackson still won’t meet his eyes. “Do you want to know what’s going on?” he asks, finally, and Danny, even though he has had half a year to decide whether he wants the truth, even though he has been thinking about this since Scott McCall made first line, since that weird night in the club, since the boy he’d been crushing on disappeared, since a fuck-ton of death got shoved into a few short months, since Jackson died but actually didn’t, since Stiles came to school with his face black and blue and Lydia had stood in the middle of a hallway and catcalled at him, and Stiles had laughed—not blushed, not flailed, but laughed—since the whole school turned on its head, Danny has been deciding whether he wants to know.
"Next Thursday" (T) by wldnst | 18,210 | In which Stiles Stilinski has a werewolf for a best friend, a support group for that, hot chocolate with Lydia Martin and Danny Mahealani every Thursday evening, and an extremely anticlimactic coming out experience.
"You Taste Like Glitter" (T) by dizzzylu | 4,247 | There was a time in Danny's life when he'd have sworn he had better things to do than sit in a club and check out the latest guy his ex is trying to hook up with. That is not the case tonight.
"Buoyancy" (M) by ethrosdemonforreal | 14,548 | Danny crushes on people he shouldn’t. He figures everyone does. The awkwardness is universal. He can usually play it cool because he’s had so much practice. Usually he’d turn to Jackson to be mocked out of self-pity. Jackson’s good at reminding Danny to just be human and not set his expectations for himself too high. Yeah, that won’t work here.
"i never conquered, rarely came" (E) by nicheinhischest | 5,893 | “Um,” Stiles’ legs are jittery, bouncing up and down on the toes of his shoes in an effort to curb his nerves. “Did you know if you Google search ‘first time anal sex’ you get forty-nine million results -” Danny closes his eyes. “Stiles, do you ever shut up even a little.” “No,” Stiles says exasperatedly. “I don’t, actually.”
"Blood Pounding in Our Veins" (M) by minusoneday | 41,305 | Stiles figured that Mrs. McCall finding out Scott’s secret would change things, but he’s completely unprepared for the very first thing she does, which is to invite Isaac to move in with her and Scott.
"Pink Lemonade" 🔒 (T) by luulapants | 999 | It wasn’t that he was into Stilinski. Of course not. He’d hardly seen the little bastard since high school, both of them flitting in and out of Beacon Hills at mismatched intervals. It was partly that someone had, apparently, helped Stiles “dress for the occasion” of a gay club: skin-tight black tank top and honest-to-god white leather pants. It should have looked ridiculous. It did! And Danny wasn’t into Stilinski, especially not in that. If anything, it was cultural appropriation.
"Just a social construct" (E) by queerly_it_is | 2,073 | "I really was kidding," Danny says. It'd be more of a put-down if it wasn't said against Stiles' mouth, if his hands weren't on Stiles' hips while Stiles just sort of twitches against the wall he's being pressed into. He mumbles back, "I really wasn't," trying to get Danny to use more tongue. Stiles is maybe already a little addicted to Danny's tongue. It's a problem.
••••••
I will add more as I find them.

@writerjayne, I'm sorry this took so long, but as promised, here is the list of my favorite fics in which Derek possesses some grade-A childcare skills. I tried to keep as on theme as possible with Derek having the better childcare skills between him and Stiles (or anyone else for that matter), or where he at least has better skills than anyone expects him to, but I may have deviated just a little bit. I also tried to avoid any non-canon AUs just in case that isn't your thing. Hope you enjoy!
The Evolution of the Egg Baby Assignment by minusoneday (G | 1/1 | 2,941)
At the end of the period, Mr. Wilson hands out the babies and lets the students get into their pairs to discuss their caretaking plans.
“Okay,” Stiles says, once he settles into the desk beside Lydia. “So, I was thinking - ”
“I’m going to stop you right there,” Lydia says. “Children are not in my ten-year-plan. Children are not in my twenty-year-plan. Therefore, we’re going to structure this assignment as if I’m the successful math genius I fully intend to be, which means I’ll be out of the country at a math conference for the duration of this baby thing. Have fun raising our child.”
David Hale, Matchmaker by Menacherie (NR | 1/1 | 3,222)
Chris doesn’t know about the baby. In fact, Laura doesn’t even know until they’re safe in New York with their normal and safe aunt and uncle. Laura doesn’t tell him either. (It’s not until years later, when Derek sees David’s blue eyes staring back at him through Chris Argent, that he has an inkling of who the father is.)
Derek doesn’t say anything, but it’s ironic that Kate Argent burns down the house of her own unborn nephew.
You And Me (Baby Makes Three) by clotpolesonly (G | 1/1 | 5,493)
Pulling out his phone, Stiles said, “I’m sure dad’ll be thrilled to be woken up at two in the morning for an off the books amber alert, but he’ll suck it up.”
He’d only taken a few steps away before Derek said his name. Stiles turned back to see one of those little grabbing hands reaching out for him. Her eyes were brown, apparently, when they weren’t glowing, and they were wide and wet and looking up at him beseechingly from Derek’s arms, and Stiles couldn’t walk away from that.
“Oh, jeez.”
He was so screwed.
The One Where They Adopt a Selkie by mikkiemouse (T | 1/1 | 7,737)
"That's a kid," Stiles said.
Derek growled. "It's a selkie."
"It's a selkie kid," Stiles pointed out, because really, they did not need to be arguing semantics right now. "Do selkies just go around leaving their kids sleeping in caves on the beach?"
Christmas Kisses by HappyJuicyFruit (G | 1/1 | 8,621)
After ten years away, Derek returns home to find a very different Beacon Hills than the one he left.  He decides it’s much, much better this way. 
Derek, Did You Steal That Baby? by SylvieW (M | 1/1 | 10,119)
When Derek suddenly shows up with a baby, everyone is suspicious. Except for Stiles. He doesn’t care where the baby came from, he just wants to play with her and explore the new side of Derek she brings out.
god was a dog-man by spqr (T | 1/1 | 12,810)
“Do you have a secret teenage son?” Stiles demands, as soon as Derek opens the door.
Five Days and a New Moon by LadyDrace (T | 1/1 | 13,614)
Stiles gets a visit from himself from a parallel universe. In which he was born a girl. And had a kid. Which he's now stuck taking care of for a few days.
Great.
Oddly, though, Derek seems totally happy babysitting.
Or:
A story where things are both more joyous and more sad than anyone really expected with a such a cute baby involved.
omnis cellula e cellula by twnkwlf (E | 3/3 | 15,302)
“You put the diaper on backwards,” Derek says.
What to expect when you aren't expecting by MemeKon (T | 1/1 | 16,921)
The baby's wailing is piercing, Stiles doesn't know how Derek can stand it. He tries shushing her and cooing at her and bouncing her a little, but the crying only gets louder, and in addition to hurting his ears, it's hurting his soul.
“Stiles,” Derek interrupts him mid-croon, eyebrows meeting over the bridge of his nose, “have you fed her since you found her?”
Stiles gapes and looks down at the baby's distressed face as she bawls.
Blood and Bonds by ProofOfConcept, wilddragonflying (NR | 1/1 | 20,595)
Stiles wants to lose his virginity, so Derek sets him up with a nice female werewolf at a pack mixer. Nine months later, the pack gets a rather stark reminder, and with it comes realizations, feeeeelings, and danger.
How Derek Met His Smallest Fan by purpleduvet (maga_nw) (M | 2/2 | 37,273)
Derek is standing in the fruits and vegetables aisle, trying to decide between two very nice looking watermelons, when someone small crashes into his legs.
or
Derek comes back to Beacon Hills after years of being gone and meets Stiles and his kid at the supermarket.
The Accidental Hale Brood by Julibean19 (M | 1/1 | 42,370 )
“I know, I just…” Derek trailed off, rubbing his forehead with both hands, frustrated that the right words weren’t coming to him.
“What?” Stiles asked honestly, pulling on one of Derek’s wrists until he could see his expression again.
Derek’s heart pounded in his chest so loud he figured even Stiles could hear it. He inhaled deeply and let the air out slowly through his nose, trying to keep his voice even. “When we take them places, and spend time with them, and make them smile… it feels like…”
“It feels like they’re yours,” Stiles finished for him, licking his lips before snagging the bottom one between his teeth.
“No,” Derek said, taking Stiles by surprise. “It feels like they’re ours.”
“Oh,” Stiles said simply, mouth still slightly open while he contemplated Derek’s words.
Or, the one in which Stiles and Derek have been BCPD partners for years when they are assigned Halloween duty and run into a couple of kids from the orphanage. One fake marriage and two real adoptions later, they somehow become a family.
The More That I Know You (the more I want to) by LadySlytherin (M | 1/1 | 43,656)
When death, in the form of hunters, comes for a family of Kelpies seeking refuge in the Preserve - in Hale territory - the Hale Pack is too late to save them. Before he dies, the male Kelpie presses a precious bundle into Stiles’ arms and begs the Emissary to take responsibility for it, which an initially reluctant Stiles does. When he agreed, Stiles had no idea what the sight of him with a baby would do to his esteemed Alpha, Derek. If he’d known, he might not have been so reluctant to agree.
I Know Where Babies Come From, Derek by DiscontentedWinter (M | 15/15 | 51,937)
Stiles finds a baby on the porch.
It looks exactly like him.
Well, this is awkward.
I was thinking about things cause I saw a Supernatural edit, and my ADHD brain followed the thought train to Teen Wolf as it often does, and I have thoughts.
As much as I LOVE Stiles raising a baby/having a baby/ finding a baby and being naturally good at it while Derek is out of his depth when you break it down, it makes no sense.
Stiles and Scott? As only children and BOYS when did they ever have a chance to look after children? (While I think boys are perfectly capable of caring for children parents tend to favor girls in child care so like when would they have even had an opportunity?)
DEREK, on the other hand....
A) he has a younger sister with a fairly significant age gap. B) he had a pack that canonically is referenced as to having children, and with family/pack dynamics, it would not be a stretch that Derek has at least SOME experience with children, especially since it's implied Cora is closer in age to Stiles and co whereas Derek is in his early 20s in season one. (Obviously, we all know what a mess the Teen Wolf timeline is, but for the sake of this post early 20s)
Derek's not good with teenagers... As we know... *insert every early interaction with Stiles and Scott ever* But kids and babies? No problem Think about how he is with everyone in the show but then how he was with those little trick-or-treaters. He scared them sure but he also gave them candy, when he could have just as easily ignored them.
I just feel like if you gave him a baby, he would just be like: "I'm a father now, yes I need the most expensive diapers possible!"
Which after having this conversation with my roomie, I realized would make magical Nemeton baby Eli (My favorite explanation) make SO much sense. Found a clearly werewolf baby in the woods? Guess he's a dad now.
Now don't get me wrong, I do think Stiles would pick up very quickly on taking care of a baby, he's very empathetic and cares very deeply, but initially, I think he wouldn't have a clue what he was doing. He would love the baby and WANT to take good care of the baby but wouldn't really know what he was doing. And babies, especially younger babies can be overwhelming.
So what I'm saying is I need a fic where Stiles finds a baby, has no clue what he's doing and Derek is like: "No that's not how you hold a baby/change a diaper/ hold a bottle" and Stiles falls in love so I'm going to write one
Thanks for coming to my ted talk

[1/2] Hi! I've been looking for a copy of a Tumblr fic that got deleted with the blog. It was called Betrothal by user sidekickinit (ao3 minusoneday). Derek and Stiles are arranged to be married bc Stiles takes Allison's place in the betrothal. Before he gets married he wants to have one last fling, and he meets Derek. They end up sleeping together and falling for each other, but neither of them is free to be in a relationship so they agree to let each other go without saying why.
[2/3] When Stiles meets the person he is engaged to, it turns out to be Derek, who he's already in love with. Summary is as follows: “I’m trying to look out for you,” Scott says oh-so-quietly, misery heavy in his words. “Your absences… they haven’t gone unnoticed. People are starting to talk. Whoever it is you’re sneaking out to see - you have to end it.”“How do you know there’s a someone?” Stiles asks, careful not to meet Scott’s gaze. “How do you know I’m not just hooking up?”
[3/3] “You smell the same every time you come back,” Scott says. “And you - you look like you’re in - you look like you’re happy.”Somehow, Stiles doesn’t think that’s the way Scott meant for that sentence to end.'--- loved this fic, would be eternally grateful if you know how to find/access a copy of it!
Does anyone have a copy of this fic to share?

Fics I Love
The Noble Tie That Binds by minusoneday
Sterek | 49k | Explicit
So far, college has taught Stiles three things:
1) Eight am classes are cruel and unusual and should be avoided at all costs, even if it means having to enroll in something truly hideous instead, like Econ 101.
2) Dorm security is just as tight as Stiles’ orientation leader had promised it would be, and the dude guarding Scott’s dorm in particular does not respond well to bribes.
3) Mrs. McCall clearly had no clue what she was talking about when she’d insisted that Scott and Stiles needed to branch out and room with strangers, so it’s all her fault that Scott ended up with a total dick of a roommate and Stiles got stuck all the way across campus with some guy who has a girlfriend two towns over and is thus never around.
Or, the one where pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale's fraternity.

Fanfic Rec #8 Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski (Teen Wolf) part 2
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday So far, college has taught Stiles three things:1) Eight am classes are cruel and unusual and should be avoided at all costs, even if it means having to enroll in something truly hideous instead, like Econ 101. 2) Dorm security is just as tight as Stiles’ orientation leader had promised it would be, and the dude guarding Scott’s dorm in particular does not respond well to bribes. 3) Mrs. McCall clearly had no clue what she was talking about when she’d insisted that Scott and Stiles needed to branch out and room with strangers, so it’s all her fault that Scott ended up with a total dick of a roommate and Stiles got stuck all the way across campus with some guy who has a girlfriend two towns over and is thus never around.

On Building an IKEA Den for an Alpha Werewolf. by orphan_account Senior Prom is coming up, and Stiles doesn't have a date. Additionally, Derek has an unfurnished apartment, and no one to take him to IKEA.
Just the Same by ericaismeg Something is seriously up with the captain of the lacrosse team. There's just no way Derek Hale is human. *** “I was wondering if you're even human. You move so quickly. I mean, it's ridiculously fast. No human should be able to move that fast, y'know? It's unfair for us. I mean, it's obvious you work out, and I don't, so that could be why, but like...I was just wondering if you were human, that's all.” “Stop talking, Stilinski, or I'll—” “Put me on the bench all season?” Stiles asks knowing full well that Derek Hale can't threaten him with shit.
A Certain Romance by Vendelin Stiles is in college and has heard a lot of things about Derek Hale, without actually meeting him. Well, that's until he does of course, and Derek seems to be everything Stiles assumed he was, and yet not at all. Written for the prompt: "Male puppies let female puppies “win” during play fights so they can get to know them."

Fandom/ship doesn't matter. I'm a equal opportunity ho. Pref long fics that don't require a bunch a context. Just some good stories that will make me feel things.
oh buddy it sounds like you could use some aus and luckily i've got a handful of them in my bookmarks:
from teen wolf:
No Homo (orphaned story) (explicit 84k)
college/frat au where stiles starts a friends-with-benefits sort of situation with derek while maintaining that he is Straight™ and derek just desperately wants him to realize that actually, wanting to suck your dude friend's dick is at least a little bit gay, bro. this fic is my One Major Exception to the 'character realizes they're bisexual by learning about the word bisexual' cliche that i hate. this fic is just so stupidly fun.
Gravity's Got Nothing on You by zosofi (explicit 84k)
my all time favorite sterek fic. i've re-read it so many times i've lost count. werewolves still exist but nothing happens like it does in canon so you don't need to have any knowledge of the show. it's a fake-dating au (set during university). stiles and derek are assholes. there's bickering and unintentional flirting. i don't think i'd change a singe thing about it. it's perfect.
Play Crack the Sky by WeAreTheCyclones (mature 122k)
rock band au i guess technically? i don't think there's a nice simple way to describe it that actually encompasses everything that it is but it's post-break-up and it's the stuff of angsty dreams. plus, if you like it there's a 253k prequel fic of the get-together. i feel like i'm not really selling this but there's a reason it's a fandom favorite.
Friends of Early Theory (explicit 24k)
office au. it's just a lot of angst so if you feel like having a cathartic cry...
What I Did On My Summer Vacation by grimm (explicit 118k)
gonna be honest: i don't really remember much about this besides the fact that there was a lot of really cool world-building.
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday (explicit 21k)
the original frat au (and it has a companion piece so if you like it, you can read it again from a different pov). it's just fun. good ol' uni pranks and dumb boys being dumb fun.
I Might Be a Fool by prettylittlementirosa (that's me!!) (explicit 35k)
i mean technically this falls under sort of long au so what am i gonna do? not rec the fic i spent several days writing lol. it's a greek/teen wolf fusion but you don't need any knowledge of either of those to read it. so essentially it's just another frat au.
The Fixer and The First Son by ebjameston (teen 47k)
it's technically a scandal au but like.. don't let that dissuade you lol. it's very good. and it's part of a longer series. it's fun. the relationship between stiles and derek isn't the focus. it's more plot-driven so if that appeals to you...
from marvel:
Comedy Jokes by hupsoonheng (explicit 77k)
the only thing you need to know about this fic is that it inspired this infamous text message
Tumblr media
Make a Thing Go Right by hansbekhart (explicit 100k)
technically this is not an au but it is removed enough from the mcu that i feel like it might as well be??? as the author said: "I wanted to see more stories that captured the weirdness and complexity of being queer, in your late 20s, and trying to date in Brooklyn - which is my life - so I wrote one."
okay so like seven of what i'm pretty sure were marvel bookmarks have been deleted so that's all i got for marvel : /
from supernatural:
Ninety One Whiskey by komodobits (explicit 401k)
WWII fic. so.. you know. heed the warnings/tags. tons of angst though. and just the slowest of slow burns. which is my jam. i love this fic a LOT but it's definitely not for everyone. you got really want the pain, my friend.
The Dean Winchester Beat Sheet by saltyfeathers (explicit 144k)
somehow both the funniest and most depressing character study of all time. it's a college au. in terms of re-readability, this is up there with 'gravity's got nothing on you' for me. i don't think i could ever get tired of it.
Cinderwings by bendingsignpost (mature 181k)
cinderella fusion fic. honestly it took me awhile to read this one because it just did not sound interesting to me at all but i actually enjoyed it a lot. i think i liked it more than 4lw (the other popular au by this author)
from tvd:
Six Mornings After (explicit 214k)
technically this is a WIP that hasn't been updated since 2018 but i figure if enough of us keep bugging gabi @darwinquark maybe she'll take a break from jeronica to give us (me) what we (i) want. it's a bamon and steroline fic loosely based on the movie two night stand where the characters get snowed-in and shenanigans ensue. who doesn't love shenanigans!?
from good girls:
Delinquents by foxmagpie (teen 82k)
brio high school au wip. it's just so lovely and innocent and cute and we can't let megan @foxmagpie start another wip while we're all waiting for an update on this one and it's summer break so she has no excuse yes i am using this as an excuse to publicly shame her (i'm jk please ma'am i'll take whatever you'll give us)
okay i think that's a good starting point. these are all like fandom staples though so if you've already read all of them, well, i don't know what to tell you. i am useless. hopefully there will be something there for you though. enjoy!

uhhm….
hi?
im new here, but i was kinda looking for a fic that… doesn’t necessarily diverge from canon bu still builds the sterek relationship, if you get what i mean at all?
sorry if this is confusing, or has already been asked.
sorry.
Welcome!
Tumblr media
one tiny little howl by Myulalie
(1/1 I 1,00O I General)
As the saying goes, wolves howl to communicate their location to other pack members. It makes Stiles wonder, because he doesn’t know how to answer in kind.
when the sky falls, you're my escape by thedoortomymind
(3/? I 3,338 I Not Rated)
Derek and Stiles find themselves and each other.
All Her Children by petals42_tumblr (rosepetals42)
(7/7 I 8,058 I Teen)
A series of fics about Melissa McCall's relationship with all her children.
Powerful (Why I got you on my mind?) by AireHaleinski
(1/1 I 14,217 I Mature)
The nightmare of the Nogitsune seems over for Stiles Stilinski and the pack, but peace is far from being a part of Beacon Hills’ life: Derek Hale, in fact, is about to experience the heartbreaking loss of his powers, that leaves him hopeless and sure of a tragic and upcoming death. Can the growing bond between two broken souls, fight forces otherwise invincible?
That Depends On How You Define Werewolf by janonny
(2/2 I 16,613 I Mature)
We’re all shapeshifters. It happens rarely, and it happens for a reason. Sometimes the shape you take reflects the person that you are. – Derek Hale, Season 2 Episode 5
“I didn’t shoot him if that’s what you’re worried about,” said Stiles’ dad. Then he smiled wryly. “Though I did push him against the wall and threaten to strangle him with my bare hands.”
Stiles gaped at his dad, because Derek…was Derek. And the Stilinski men weren’t exactly buff. They were built more slender and agile, though Stiles was still waiting for the agile part to kick in.
Blood Pounding in Our Veins by minusoneday
(10/10 I 41,305 I Mature)
Stiles figured that Mrs. McCall finding out Scott’s secret would change things, but he’s completely unprepared for the very first thing she does, which is to invite Isaac to move in with her and Scott.

In which Stiles is angry. For some very good reasons.

“It depends entirely on how you look at it, I guess,” Stiles shrugs. “On the one hand, instant healing and the apparently inherited ability to pull off leather at all times. On the other, serious attitude problems and a suspicious disappearance of eyebrows.”
“Even Derek’s?” Danny snorts, “that’s a lot of eyebrow to lose.”
“I know,” Stiles agrees. “You should see, it’s so weird. Every time I want to ask him where they go, except he’d totally eat my face off.”
“There are worse ways to die.”
Running Up That Hill by maypoison
(32/32 I 139,488 I Explicit)
“Even before the pack joined together, Scott was trying to protect you. And he still is trying to protect you, even if it means leaving you out of all this.”
Stiles does roll his eyes at that. “Yeah, but it didn’t work did it. I was still involved, and so was my Dad. We were nearly killed by Matt, and then Gerard.”
“My point is, people change. Relationships aren’t always perfect. Scott's tried to kill me before."
Stiles raises an eyebrow. "So, you’re saying that someone trying to kill you is just a small flaw in a relationship?"
“We’re werewolves.” Derek answers with a shrug, as if that was a perfectly good explanation.
Under the Wolf Moon by Pdxtrent
(41/41 I 105,563 I General)
Laura Hale has disappeared. But from there, things go very very differently. Expect adults acting like adults, and actual communication and not terrible decision making. Though it's still Beacon Hills, so you know things are going to be complicated.
************************************
He packed a bag as quickly as he could and grabbed his passport just in case. He looked around the apartment, glanced at his sister’s closed bedroom door and then walked out.
An hour later he was at the airport.
Two hours after that he was in the air.
Seven hours after that he was touching down in San Francisco.
Another hour and he was getting into the rental car that would take him to literally the last place on earth he ever wanted to return: Beacon Hills, California.

Teen Wolf fanfiction recs:
Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski [Part 5]
Tumblr media
"The Noble Tie That Binds" (E) by minusoneday | 49,548 | “Stiles, Stiles, Stiles,” Derek sighs, coming to stand next to him. He’s holding a roll of duct tape, which Stiles is eyeing very warily. “How do you know my name?” Stiles demands, and Derek rolls his eyes like he’s being stupid. “You don’t think I’d take the time to find out exactly who’s been masterminding all these ridiculous pranks?” “Masterminding!” Stiles exclaims. “That is false - completely off base - I don’t have any idea what you’re talking about - ” “Oh, I know an instigator when I see one,” Derek says.
"last night's dress (tiptoe out of this mess)" (M) by hito | 16,730 | My dad just asked me if my booty call guy would like to stay for brunch tomorrow. You in?
"Little Talks" (T) by pollitt | 4,478 | The sheriff witnesses Derek and Stiles's relationship from the outside.
"almost famous" (E) by thorgasmed | 10,761 | So the thorn in his side, the bane of his existence, is a tall skinny boy in skinny jeans, covered in tattoos from his neck to his feet. In some photos he has a buzzcut and in others he has a short mohawk. His lobes are stretched huge and he has two silver studs under his bottom lip. He looks how Derek pictured him; a smug delinquent.
"Between the Drinks (and Subtle Things)" (M) by flourcrowned | 3,426 | He remembered this feeling. This is what being hungover felt like.
"Air on a G String" (E) by rufflefeather | 20,974 | A Maenad is after Lydia, and when she doesn't get what she wants, she takes it out on Stiles.
"Under the Skin" (T) by Nny | 1,614 | Stiles almost swallows his tongue as Derek grabs his wrist, brushes his thumb against the fragile skin there. There's a moment of stillness, then Derek's head jerks up, eyes wide and nostrils flaring. Stiles snatches his hand back and walks away.
"Making Love Out Of Nothing At All" (E) by silverlining99 | 27,822 | When Derek comes to Stiles with a problem, Stiles agrees to help him.
"peace will come to me" (T) by goodnight_tinyhumans | 219 | There are moments, though few and far between these days, when Derek feels at peace. This is one of them.
"Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?" (T) by goodnight_tinyhumans | 1,532 | Stiles might be a little sick of unrequited feelings or lust or whatever. The situation with Derek- Deputy Hale, he has to keep reminding himself, because he’s never actually told Stiles his name and that’s getting into creeper territory pretty quickly- has gone past the merely-wanting-to-jump-his-bones stage and well into die-hard-crush, complete with inappropriate fantasies involving handcuffs and roleplaying. And the problem with that, of course, is that he tends to resolve situations like these one of two ways: going out and getting drunk, or staying home and getting drunk.
"violets are blue" (T) by HalfFizzbin | 2,759 | Derek the super cranky florist delivery guy (it's the family business!) and Stiles the underemployed, overeducated, bored as fuck receptionist.
"A Broken Heart Is Blind" (M) by anonymous | 5,327 | When Lydia dumps Stiles to get back with Jackson, Stiles rebounds with Derek, his former TA. It was just supposed to be a one night stand, but they're both a little confused about what the rules for those are.
"Rare Books and Special Collections" (E) by anonymous | 15,288 | Derek is a grumpy omega writer, and Stiles is an annoyingly attractive alpha special collections librarian.
"The Woebegone Kid" (M) by ahab2692 | 31,000 | They make a pair: the disheveled man with wild hair and the red hooded boy with a spring in his step, both of them making their way through the fog and down the roads of Beacon Hills, searching for something. Stiles chews on his lip, scratches at the sleeve of his sweatshirt. “Look . . . I mean, you know something’s wrong, yeah? Like, it’s not just me? I feel sort of like... We know each other, don't we?"
"Fever All Through the Night" (T) by anothershower | 1,391 | “There’s a prize?” he offers lamely, after it’s clear that Derek is really, seriously pissed off and not prepared to back down any time soon.
"Of Letters and Love and Everything in Between" (E) by sonic_counselor | 64,022 | He gets a few more letters after that, mostly full of Stiles complaining about life in Beacon Hills, telling him what everyone else is up to. Derek likes getting mail from Stiles but isn’t sure if he likes hearing about the humdrum dramas of Beacon Hills all the time. It makes him feel like he’s never left, and not in a good way. Stiles asks him questions in his letters, questions about what he’s been doing since he’s back in Brooklyn, if Cora is doing OK, what his favorite flavor ice cream is. Derek spreads the letters out on his bed and re-reads them all, before picking up a pen and starting to answer all of Stiles’ questions.
"The Brave and Stupid Thing" (E) by whateverrrrwhatever | 2,831 | “Fine,” Stiles interrupts, irritated. “Fine. There’s no way I’m going to be able to wash my hair on my own, anyway. What’s one more indignity?”
"Better Again" (E) by whateverrrrwhatever | 14,698 | Stiles has to look away, lean back a little. Derek has a fucking gorgeous mouth and Stiles is pretty sure his thirst is visible to every single person in the vicinity. He has got to tone it down. Anything more than appreciation is just straight up impractical — Derek isn’t into guys. Stiles is pretty sure he’d know, after years of living in close proximity.
"Coming Home" (G) by whateverrrrwhatever | 1,254 | Trust Stiles to arrive when everyone else is busy, though – his dad called in to cover for two sick deputies, Scott working transport for a suddenly ill beloved family mare, everyone else coincidentally busy with their own lives and scattered to the four winds besides. Well, he’s pretty sure he knows at least one person with no social life, no job, and nothing to do but entertain Stiles for an afternoon.
"Marcus Aurelius" (M) by sonic_counselor | 5,319 | “Why – and also, how – are you reading messages I sent Scott? Seems rude, even for you.” “You sent them to me.” “No I didn’t.” “Yes, you did,” Derek huffs.
"Seriously, it's like you're photoshopped." (T) by anonymous | 8,090 | "Oh my god," Stiles squeaks out again. "You're unbelievable." Hot Bar Guy bobs his head agreeably. "I've been told that before, though usually people are more out of breath and less clothed when they say it."
"The One Where Derek Almost Dies" 🔒 (T) by Jerakeen | 1,832 | "Wake up, right now," Stiles demands, voice cold with dread and fear. "You are not allowed to die here. You hear me, Derek Hale? I swear to god I will resurrect your ass as a zombie if you do. I'm not even kidding."
"Best Laid Plans of Wolves and Men" 🔒 (T) by Jerakeen | 2,026 | Maybe murder seems better to Derek than being Stiles Stilinski's pretend boyfriend.
"Consider It Love" (E) by mysecretashes | 1,565 | "What's this?" Stiles says, taking the unwrapped box from Derek. It's small and square, black, and void of any sort of brand name or logo. Derek shrugs, not meeting Stiles' eyes. "I stepped on your watch last time we were at my loft. Consider it an apology."
"Oh baby give me one more chance (to show you that I love you)" (E) by LunaCanisLupus_22 | 54,793 | “You like Derek,” Stiles says slowly. “Derek Hale.” His father grimaces at the accusation there. “Look, Stiles it’s complicated-” “So when I was married to him,” he continues, voice rising. “He wasn’t good enough. He was taking advantage of me. ‘He’ll never be able to love you like you want, Stiles’. That’s what you said.”
"The New Teacher" (M) by everchanginginks & TwistedAmusement13 | 9,562 | Derek, a world-weary English teacher pushing 40, is roped into a wet night out by his best friends. He finds himself charmed by a flirty college student who introduces himself as Stiles. They share an incredible night, but Stiles leaves before Derek wakes up. Thinking that he'll never see Stiles again, Derek bitterly gets ready for work at Beacon Hills High School. He's in for a bit of shock when he's introduced to the newly hired science teacher.
"A Couple of Dicks" (T) by grangerinvestigations | 2,679 | “Why can’t we be Hale-Stilinski Detectives at Large? Or better yet, Stilinski-Hale?” “That sounds like we’re married.” “Dude, we are married, except for all the awesome parts that come along with it,” Stiles said. “I have to live with you, share all expenses, work with you and put up with your obnoxious mood swings, but you never put out.”
"he is and as he is" (T) by avocadomoon | 1,176 | Why are you trying to eat five muffins at once, you're disgusting, and Stiles just smirked and poked his shoulder and laughed when Derek smacked him in the stomach and accidentally made him spit out two and a half muffins onto the carpet.
"Everyone Can See" 🔒 (E) by venilia | 40,475 | He finds the journal at the bottom of collection of Victorian doorknobs. As soon as he turns the page Stiles knows this is it, sharp like an electric current up his spine. It’s beautiful, an open-mawed fox winding through the roots of an ash tree, nine stars under its paws.The bare-lined sketch was inked with pen, rough and more stylistic than realistic. Stiles is in love.
"Pick a Pack of Pestered Puppies" (T) by calrissian18 | 14,363 | Derek says, “They’re taking my pack.” He stresses the word, willing Stiles to get it. He closes his eyes like they hurt. “Pack, which you just—” Which Stiles had just declared he was, which he'd only done after realizing they all were—that he and Chris and Isaac and Peter had been working frightfully well as one without even noticing it.
"He Speaks in Petals" (M) by calrissian18 | 4,727 | A giant root pulls itself from the earth, dirt falling in clumps, worms and beetles shaking free, bending and curling itself before him. The tip touches low on Derek's stomach. “Flowers bloomed here,” the root lifts and hovers in front of his mouth, “and fell freely from here.” The root lowers to the earth slowly, stiffly. “But no longer. Nothing grows in you now.”
"Killer Smile" (E) by Black_Calliope | 54,434 | Stiles works as a member of a Behavioral Analysis Unit, gets insulted quite a lot, learns that love doesn't always take the shortest path and cultivates an illicit relationship with a coffee mug. Not necessarily in that order.
"Reciprocal Determinism" (T) by calrissian18 | 4,248 | Stiles stares at him, glassy eyes tracking every twitch of Derek’s movement while his lungs struggle to take in air. Derek grabs him by the shoulders, the same place the beta had touched him. “Fall apart if you need to. Let go.” Stiles blinks at him and then… then he does. He shoves Derek away from him and screams, a harsh and desperate thing that sounds as though it’s going to rip him in half before it’s through with him.
"And I Never Thought I'd Ever Say Forever" (M) by suchfun | 31,844 | "The TiMER is a gift." He says it automatically, because that's what his mom says. That's how he was brought up. That's what he's supposed to think. He used to believe it, back when he was sixteen and idealistic. Back when he thought meeting his soulmate was an inevitability, not a slim possibility.
"Cut It Out And Then Restart" (T) by suchfun | 18,690 | Years ago, when they were first starting out both in their relationship and their careers, when they were babies and hardly understood their car insurance let alone the multi-billion dollar, all-consuming, world-encompassing, life-altering business of news reporting—back then, Derek would practice his expressions in the mirror, and Stiles would think, I'm so glad he'll never have to use that face with me.
"Handstands For You" (E) by Fenris13 | 15,930 | “Derek’s probably been to the lake before, right?” Stiles says into the night. Allison stops to look at him, confused. Scott just makes a sound like a dying whale that sounds suspiciously like “not again, Stiiiiles”, but Stiles ignores him. He’s the one who asked Stiles to come with, so he gets to listen to Stiles’ problems. “Um, yes? Didn’t you guys come here just a few days ago?” “Well yeah, but that was for werewolf reasons, that doesn’t count, I mean like—it’s summertime. Do you think Derek, like. Goes to the lake?” Allison squints at him, but when Scott makes that beleaguered noise again, her face changes and Stiles blushes. “I don’t know Stiles,” she says mischievously. “Maybe you should ask him.”
"in the waiting room" (E) by CoraRochester {story} & ravenclawkward {art} | 29,753 | In which Stiles has amnesia and falls in love with his husband all over again.
"Muérdago" (E) by starbolin | 17,678 | Stiles blew out a breath. “As amazing as it is to find out you have a sense of humor at all, the sarcasm isn’t helping.” “A guy goes to a movie theater,” Derek said, still not looking at Stiles. Stiles started moving. Derek did too. After a moment, Derek continued, “He gets there early, sits down with his popcorn and watches a couple of previews. Then a woman comes in with a bear on a leash.” This is not happening, Stiles thought.
"anything, anything" (E) by drunktuesdays | 5,242 | “Did you sic everyone in this damn town on me?” Stiles said, furious. “No,” Derek drawled. “Fernando at the coffee shop refused to serve me,” Stiles shouted. “Do you know how long he’s known me? Since I was five. When I asked him what his problem was, his wife told me you were a nice boy and I shouldn’t be so mean.” “I am a nice boy,” Derek said, smirking a little.
"But it's better when it's you" (M) by Tails89 | 9,707 | Shuffling slowly towards the front door, Stiles throws it open. “What?” Stiles’ brain short circuits - just a little - because standing in front of him is Derek Hale. He hasn’t seen Derek in almost four years and now he’s standing on his doorstep, in shorts and a tank top with a canvas bag clutched in one hand.
"Hook Me Up" (M) by suchfun | 4,682 | Derek walks in—Derek, Derek from last night, Derek from this morning, Derek—walks in. He walks in, sees Stiles, and freezes. Stiles blinks, staring, thinking maybe he's imagining things, but it's definitely Derek—he's even wearing same clothes, just with a confused scowl instead of a self-satisfied smirk. Also, a plastic pirate hook is gripped in his left hand, which is the worst non-attempt at a costume Stiles has ever seen. Ever. It's ridiculous. Stiles swallows roughly. "If you'd had that last night, things might have gone in a totally different direction," he says inanely, nodding at the hook.
"Looking For The Feeling Lost Inside" (M) by suchfun | 46,069 | "Am I wrong? Do you secretly love modelling? Because if you do then fucking A man, get your coin, but if you're—" "I can't fucking do anything else!" Derek snarls, and fuck. The shock of it, of finally saying it out loud, startles him out of his beta shift and into silence.
"Move You Like an Earthquake" (G) by angelgazing | 665 | “I really thought growing up would have better perks,” he says, three weeks out from turning twenty-one, nothing to fight, and sipping from a glass of milk because Derek won’t bend enough to let him have something stronger. “No, you didn’t,” Derek answers.
"A Heart Repeating, Beating" (G) by angelgazing | 659 | His fingers want to reach for Stiles, but that isn't a new sensation. Derek can never take his eyes off of him, not in any kind of light. And not like this. With the darkness, with the quiet, with the soft movements Stiles makes as he prepares for another day. And Derek thinks--I wasn't prepared for you. He thinks--I have never known anyone more terrifying.
"Oh Noetry" (M) by starbolin | 1,034 | “You met him yesterday?” What Derek had smelled in the store struck him as more of a three-day fiesta of fornication, held somewhere with intense humidity and no running water. Stiles was scowling. “Yeah? So?” “I wasn’t -- whatever,” Derek cut himself off, because he was pretty sure if he heard the words jizz swamp coming out of his own mouth he’d have to put the grocery bag down, get back in his car, and drive into an overpass pillar.
"The Chasms Between" (E) by alexenglish | 15,124 | Stiles has come to the terms with the fact that he and Derek are never going to be together in this life. They have way too many unresolved issues. Besides, Derek doesn't want him, he knows that much.
"If I Had A Wish (Or Even A Choice)" (E) by ladyblahblah | 3,892 | Stiles has a preference for written porn. He also has a thing for Derek's voice. So when Derek finds his erotica collection, this is clearly either the best or the worst thing that's ever happened to him.
"the banana bread incident" (T) Thealmostrhetoricalquestion | 10,287 | Stiles is clambering into the shopping cart with an expression of unholy glee pasted across his face, sunglasses slightly askew. “Three laps around the car park, at least, or I’m going to shove this cart in your car. And I promise, big guy, it’ll fit.” Derek swings his keys around his index finger and says, “This is a lot less enjoyable than the last time a guy promised me that.”
"Little Promises" (G) by crossroadswrite | 2,666 | Derek slaps the end of the pencil that was hanging off the table and it goes flying, hitting Deaton squarely on the shoulder. Isaac stares with wide eyes at Derek for a split second before he curls in on himself with laughter. “Derek,” Dr. Deaton says calmly and Derek scrunches his nose at him, dropping down to his hands and wiggling back so he can hide under the coffee table and doesn’t have to say hello to him. “I don’t think he likes you,” he hears Stiles say with a laugh in his voice.
"Timshel" (T) by jsea | 12,569 | Derek feels Peter die. Peter was his alpha. Had been. As his life soaks away onto the forest floor, the magnetic pull of pack slowly seeps away too. Derek turns away from the sight. He's exhausted and there's a knot in his chest that tightens even further at the knowledge that Scott got everything he wanted, at a price Derek had to pay.
"There's Monsters at Home" (E) by calrissian18 | 83,600 | “How did you get past the wards?” Derek had put them up, with Peter’s grudging assistance, after the Alpha pack had made themselves at home a few times too many. The guy pulled a face. “You mean the wards a five-year-old girl with the mental ability of a goldfish could deconstruct?” He blinked wide eyes at Derek. “Gee, I don’t know. It’s bound to go down as one of life’s great mysteries.” Derek despised him.
"Sinking and Surfacing" (E) by calrissian18 | 9,547 | Derek's repairing broken things, Stiles is determined not to be one of them.
"Taught by Experts" (T) by unpossible | 29,011 | “Let me get this straight,” Stiles says. “You’re going to be publicly dating someone else.”
"Something More" (E) by kaistrex | 19,148 | When Derek and Stiles stumbled into a friends with benefits relationship purely by accident, they weren’t expecting it would one day save their asses when a threat from Derek’s past comes knocking. All they need to do is pretend to really be in love to avoid an arranged marriage agreed to years ago with a pact of blood.
"catch me in the cracks between your crooked smile" (E) by illuminatedcities | 7,662 | “I shouldn’t have said that,” Derek says, the same moment Stiles says: “You care about me!” Derek’s long-suffering expression should be photographed and shown in a museum somewhere, in Stiles’ opinion. “That’s not what I said,” Derek says. “Well, it was heavily implied at least,” Stiles says.
"Step into the daylight (and let it go)" (M) by dearericbittle | 14,418 | Stiles is a grad student with serious insomnia. So when he sees a stranger in need of help, he thinks it’ll be a good way to alleviate the boredom. How the hell was he supposed to know that the weird guy with the baseball cap was a famous actor (and a fucking werewolf)? He just keeps running into the guy.
"Seen that wild blue yonder (let's hide under the covers)" (E) by dearericbittle | 25,973 | Weatherman Stiles doesn’t have time for a relationship. So when his friend and neighbor uneasily tells him that he’s thinking about dating again, but he doesn’t feel ready yet, the solution seems obvious. Friend sex. Obviously.
"The Only Exception" (E) by alisvolatpropiis | 37,182 | Derek is a complete and utter fool. He’s been so focused on trying to make sure his family will think Stiles is his boyfriend he’s been blind to the fact that he’s been treating Stiles like his mate. That he wants Stiles to be his mate.
"Bounty Hunter Hale" (M) by Captain_Loki | 8,964 | Stiles had endured the grumbling ‘bounty hunters’ rant from his father for about a decade. In a show of solidarity he shared his father’s less than favorable opinion of them, and maybe it was just the fact that Batman was ranked only second to his father as childhood hero, but he tended to agree that justice should be an end in and of itself. This rather noble sentiment of Stiles’ was, however, flushed immediately down the proverbial toilet when, one afternoon, Stiles caught sight of the two hundred pounds of the pure muscle and leather that was Derek Hale.
"Sucker Love" 🔒 (E) by whiskey_in_tea | 17,978 | Kate sits up and narrows her eyes at him. “Page 72,” she says. “Why I Plan to Wait, by Stiles Stilinski.” The spread is hilariously cliched: a full page picture of a pale, pretty boy with a wide-eyed blonde girl walking on the beach, the two of them holding hands and staring into the waves, probably thinking wistfully of the sex they aren’t having. “See, I was thinking he might make an interesting challenge,” Kate says lazily. “And he’s surprisingly attractive, don’t you think? Such long fingers. And that mouth.”
"Need for Weed" (T) & "Seeing Stars" (M) by alisvolatpropiis | 4,330 | Derek was nervous enough about this, aside from his hang-ups about rule breaking. He has no idea what he’s doing, and he’s already accepted the fact that he’s going to look like an idiot to whomever he buys from. He hadn’t counted on the dispensary’s delivery guy being utterly fucking gorgeous, and the type to brazenly (and unprofessionally) check Derek out as well, biting his plump, pink bottom lip.
"Shiver" (T) by canistakahari | 1,711 | Stiles has really, really cold hands. Luckily, Derek knows just what to do about that.
"Hotsky to Trotsky" (T) by paintedrecs | 3,317 | Derek had his future mapped out: there'd be graduation, followed by college, followed by (he hoped) a good grad school, then a career as a professor whose students didn't spend their time flicking paper footballs at each other and obsessing over their dating lives. He had good friends, a good family, and no time to focus on distractions like high school gossip or relationships. He hadn't factored Stiles Stilinski - lacrosse player, class clown, part of the popular crowd, currently spending his entire day staring at Derek and smiling - into his plans.
"Snowed In" (T) by paintedrecs | 16,292 | Derek loved Christmas. Family-only Christmases, that is, which Cora had thrown a wrench into this year by bringing home a guy who turned out to be handsome, funny, brilliant, and... of course... completely unavailable.
"Practice Makes Perfect" (G) by hazelNuts | 754 | Stiles gets sick after going on one of the rides at the fair.
"You're My Quiet Contemplation" (M) by Captain_Loki | 2,578 | Derek has this habit of catching Stiles in moments when he’s loose and unguarded. Stiles raises his arm sloppily to his face, and Derek watches the joint that’s held loosely between Stiles forefinger and thumb fall against his lips. He doesn’t notice Derek perched just outside his window.
"It Goes Without Saying" (M) by ZehWulf | 19,207 | “Well,” Danny says after a few minutes of heavy silence. “I guess you have to ask yourself how badly do you want him to be pack? If you really want to connect with someone—anyone—you can. You just have to figure out the right connector.” “You guys, I figured it out,” Scott enthuses. “A true alpha’s powers come from love and acceptance. We just need to love and accept Derek. Body, mind, and soul.” “Scotty,” Stiles says slowly, “are you suggesting…? What are you suggesting.” “You heard the alpha,” Danny drawls. “We need to love and accept Derek’s body. And mind and soul.”
"Broken Bottles Shine Just Like Stars (Make A Wish Anyway)" (NR) by myheartsinks | 13,544 | "...Why is that one jar over there filled with twenty dollar bills?" "That's the douchebag jar. And Jackson was over last weekend." Cora shrugs.
"Wandering and Lost" (G) by calrissian18 | 2,382 | The door of the Jeep closed with a sharp crack and Derek rubbed at the corners of his eyes. “Stiles, it’s four in the morning,” he said crossly, sounding haggard. Stiles stared up at the dark face of his house, still sitting in his driveway, hands shaky on the wheel. “I seem to recall not asking you to come along.”
"Runnin' On My Mind Boy" (E) by tourdefierce | 11,384 | Derek lets himself have this indulgence. That's how he thinks of it but maybe he's wrong. Not about it being dangerous and stupid, because it is definitely still that, but perhaps he's not the one making all the decisions around here. For once, maybe Stiles is giving him this and Derek isn't so much as taking, as he's just stop lying to himself.
"Goldilocks" (M) by tourdefierce | 11,424 | It may be the wrong fairytale to fit their odd world, but Derek was most definitely Goldilocks, and somehow, Stiles' bed was juuuuuust right.
"Solivagant" (T) by onewithroses | 3,586 | Two halls out and Derek has made plans to dash in and out of his uncle’s room. A minute in. A minute out. After that he can leave. Maybe see a movie. Derek finds Stiles instead.
"Be Simple Again" (E) by prettylittlementirosa | 37,515 | Derek’s not sure if there’s a way to explain that he left because Beacon Hills didn’t need him, not when it had Scott and his pack; and that they were better off without him- an omega whose anchor was slipping. Mostly he wonders if any of them really even noticed he was gone.
"I Might Be A Fool" (E) by prettylittlementirosa | 35,375 | Stiles doesn’t really know anything about Greek life, never even thought about it. It’s always just been something that existed over here while he was existing over there. But now that he thinks about it, all the movies about awesome college experiences typically involve frat parties. He doesn’t know why he never thought of it before. It’s so obvious: “I’m going to join a fraternity, Lydia!”
"Wait, What?" (G) by wangler | 5,353 | When a significant portion of the Beacon Hills Preserve ends up coated in three entire inches of snow, the pack looks into it. If by looking into it one means packing a bunch of garbage bags and huge Tupperware lids into the back of Stiles' Jeep to go look for a decent sledding hill. Things go sideways, because of course they do.
"Where the Wind Don't Change" (E) by BarlowGirl | 7,101 | Five times Derek gets hurt and Stiles patches him back up, and one time Stiles gets hurt. Plus feels and some sex.
"Like Family" (G) by BarlowGirl | 1,004 | Imagine the Sheriff risking his life to save Derek and Derek is just like not used to that. And worse better still, he expects Stiles to be upset about it. To chastise his father for risking his life at all, let alone for Derek. Except, Stiles is all pale and shaky and sweating and he keeps grabbing the edge of Derek’s sleeves, at his wrist, like he’s afraid to let go. Imagine Derek being a part of a family and not even knowing it.
"The Heart May Be A Lonely Hunter, But the Cat Isn't Anymore" (T) by BarlowGirl | 4,611 | “Kind of an ugly thing, isn’t it?” Stiles asks. Derek turns a glare on him. “Why are you even here?” Stiles grins. “Because you plus a kitten is hilarious, Danny Zuko,” he says, reaching over and scratching the kitten’s neck. The thing takes a swipe at him and takes a chunk of his arm with it. Stiles jolts backwards, trips over his own feet, and ends up on his ass on the floor. Derek looks back at Deaton. “How would I go about keeping her?”
"Grade 4" (T) by elysiumwaits | 711 | Derek sounds… like Derek, to be honest, frustrated and worried, but there’s a distinct undercurrent of ‘scared’ there that’s obvious enough that even Stiles can pick up on it, as out of it as he is. He breathes out, like he’s trying to find strength that he doesn’t have. “I’ve got you, Stiles. Just stay awake. Can you do that for me?”
"'Five Days in Detention' (A Future Song by Stiles Stilinski)" (NR) by alisvolatpropiis | 3,407 | Derek can’t do that if he’s wasting his time in detention with these losers. There are a couple of burnouts lazing over some seats by the window, one kid with his face on a desk, hood over his head, and a few Goth kids are sitting in the back corner, looking surly and morose. Maybe you wouldn’t be so miserable if you didn’t listen to such shitty music, he thinks, turning towards his usual seat in the back of the room. He pauses for the briefest of moments when he sees who’s already sitting there, in the second-to-last row, black-clad limbs spread out, acoustic guitar in his lap, long fingers casually plucking at the strings. Stiles Stilinski.
"I Know Where Babies Come From, Derek" (M) by DiscontentedWinter | 51,937 | Stiles finds a baby on the porch. It looks exactly like him. Well, this is awkward.
"Backward Unto Apostasy" (M) by ladyblahblah | 2,019 | A strong pack can provide stability and safety for an entire area. Loyalty is paramount, and betrayal is met with swift and merciless retribution. When the sheriff moves against Beacon Hills's new alpha, his son will do anything to save his life.
"In spite of all you knew and said" (M) by Azul_Bleu | 2,700 | The road streams behind them, mile upon mile until Stiles can’t say where they even started, and Stiles talks so he won’t have to remember.
"You are the Moon" (T) by skoosiepants | 10,055 | Stuff Stiles doesn’t like to deal with first thing: hot, moist dog breath in his face, a cuddly werewolf creepifying his perfectly normal morning wood with shades of bestiality, and his dad holding his service revolver up against the skull of his bedmate, never mind the fact that his bedmate could possibly be a vicious unhinged rogue omega.
"Death in Small Doses" (G) by aussiebee | 1,098 | In yet another aftermath Derek takes care of Stiles and reminds him that hope is always worth the sacrifice.
"Tricks and Treats" 🔒 (E) by loserchildhotpants | 4,260 | Stiles and Derek get very distracted while on look-out for vampires one Hallow's Eve.
"U Don't Have to be Cool" 🔒 (T) by loserchildhotpants | 1,873 | And so it came to be that every Monday and Wednesday at 8am, Stilinski would make a futile attempt at subtlety and try to flirt with him (at least, that’s what Derek came to understand Stilinski was doing. A lot of Stilinski’s conversation starters begin with ‘did you know’ and end with the listener learning something they never wanted to know that Stilinski discovered while perusing Wikipedia at 5am.) or Stilinski would outright ask him out. Every Monday and Wednesday, Derek rejects him.
"And It Cut Me Deep; Hearing You'd Gone Away" 🔒 (M) by loserchildhotpants | 4,531 | Stiles can almost see Derek’s control crumble like a collapsing wall around him. His eyes go dark and cold like when they first met; in an instant, he’s distant and looks lethal. “What are you gonna do, Stiles? Cry?” Stiles sniffs unconsciously, backing up as Derek invades his space, somehow so much more hulking than before. “Go ahead, Stiles,” Derek eggs on, shoving Stiles backward by his shoulders, “Cry. You’re so fucking useful when you’re sitting around crying.”
"Medicine Man" 🔒 (M) by loserchildhotpants | 5,020 | “I never deserved a friend like you, Stiles.” The pause Stiles gives is eerie. “Derek, are you okay?”
"I Could Never" 🔒 (T) by loserchildhotpants | 710 | “If you die, I’m gonna kill you.”
"Better Luck Next Time" 🔒 (T) by loserchildhotpants | 1,047 | Derek’s eyes are so round and white, so clear with terror and still, his shaking hand comes to grip Stiles’ fiercely. He nods, and tears through the rest of the debris keeping Stiles pinned to the wall. He looks Stiles’ sharply in the eyes, and asks, “are you - are you okay? Are you going to -" “I’m gonna make it, Derek,” Stiles nods.
"Seeing Wolves (Where There Are No Wolves)" 🔒 (E) by loserchildhotpants | 71,966 | Derek gets the therapy he so desperately needs and gets healthy. The clearer his head gets, the more room it seems to have for Stiles.
"god was a dog-man" (T) by spqr | 12,810 | “Do you have a secret teenage son?” Stiles demands, as soon as Derek opens the door.
"Odyssey of Memory" (T) by calrissian18 | 1,833 | “I don’t get her eyes right anymore, and her nose is never the same shape. I’ll see a photo of her and for a second I have no idea who that woman is because I’ve smudged the shape of everything left in my head. They don’t tell you that,” Stiles stubs the cigarette out on the stair with force, “that there’s always a whole new grief waiting around the corner.”
"Skinny Dipping with Wolves" (M) by chase_acow | 1,964 | "C'mon Stiles, this was your idea," Lydia prompted, and he turned back to see everyone else in various stages of nudity.
"There Must Be Better Ways" (T) by skoosiepants | 3,784 | This is totally unfair. This crush has been terrible but manageable; he hardly ever saw Derek outside of the occasional diner run-in and all the summer BBQs, and Derek always looks like being in any public setting is excruciating—his broody scowls are devastating enough, now he gets to imagine him happy. Is it possible to die from unrequited love and pining?
"Don’t Call It a Trend" (T) by skoosiepants | 2,259 | It's not that Stiles was in denial about his crush. Who wouldn't have a crush on Derek Hale, right? Big, dark and broody, cheekbones he wants to rub his thumbs all over, just about the best ass Stiles has ever seen on a human being. Stiles isn't made of stone here, he has wants and needs and teenage hormones. That Stiles has always found Derek attractive has never been in question. But this, this right here, is making Stiles doubt his normally awesome observational skills and judgement.
"Apathy, Apathy, You'll be the Death of Me" (M) by calrissian18 | 11,701 | Boyd is a pragmatic posthumous reappropriater, Erica spends her free time impersonating Meursault and playing Fruit Ninja, Isaac would like everyone to settle down already, Stiles is bi, Scott’s actually holding it together pretty well for a week-old Alpha with a two pack problem, Jackson’s a lizard, Lydia accessorizes, Allison’s playing on a rival (semi-murderous) team and Derek just keeps showing up.
"of course i wear armor" 🔒 (E) by nighimpossible | 1,108 | "You got a death wish, asshole?” Stiles pauses his pacing directly in front of Derek. "No," Derek says calmly. "Then why are you taking bullets for me?" Stiles yells.
°°°°°°
That's 100!

The Sterek Halloween MasterPost
Hallow's Warmth by raisesomehale | 6.8K
Derek and Cora own the little coffee shop downtown, Stiles is the regular and talkative client that Derek may or may not be infatuated with, and the cold weather is extremely inconvenient considering it dusts Stiles' cheeks with a rosy shade of red and causes his breath to frost over in white puffs whenever he laughs.
Pining and Halloweenie things ensue.
Just a Little Hocus Pocus by secondstar |16.8K
On All Hallow’s Eve when the moon is round, a virgin will summon us from under the ground.
Stiles lights the black flame candle, bringing three witches back from the dead who need his soul to survive the night.
Little Red Riding Hood (you sure are looking good) by aohatsu | 10.2K
Stiles hangs out with werewolves. Stiles dresses up as Little Red Riding Hood for Halloween. It's supposed to be ironic.
Masque by JenNova |3.5K
Derek's not sure he can remember what he was trying to achieve here.
“That's not really a costume,” Stiles' voice returns, curling into Derek's ear. Derek suppresses a shiver.
“It's a costume,” he says, shocked by how rough his voice sounds. He needs to get out of here.
Disco Cops by GotTheSilver | 3.1K
“You don’t need to protect me, Stiles.”
“Officer of the law here,” Stiles says, his smile twisting into a dirty smirk. “That’s my job.”
“Not in those shorts.”
“How about out of these shorts?”
bonfires burning bright (room in my coffin tonight) by  hito | 12.2K
Stiles may hate Halloween, but he loves working at the Haunted House -- at least until the new girl steals his cushy job in the office. But she also introduces him to the guy he's had a crush on for years, so he supposes she can't be a total witch. That doesn't mean Derek isn't a vampire.
Marked for Later by  hazelNuts | 5K
The Hale and the McCall pack have an uneasy truce. Now, when a witch has been killing people in both their territories, Derek and Stiles have to go undercover and actually work together to stop her.
‘We’ll go as a couple, of course. Then we either ask her if she wants a threesome, or I complain to her about my dick of a boyfriend. That role shouldn’t be too hard for you,’ Stiles grins, delighted at Derek’s horrified expression. ‘Now all we need are costumes.’
‘No.’
always the sidekick (never the superhero) by  mirrorkill | 44.4K
Wherein Stiles wears spandex, Derek does too, and "convince" doesn't mean what Lydia thinks it means.)
And Also, I Love You by alisvolatpropiis | 7.1K
Derek didn’t look at all like Stiles expected. After all, he deliberately chose a school where being a nerd was cool, so he certainly wasn’t expecting his hotter-than-a-thousand-stars roomie to be an actual cool person. 
borders and horizon lines by magneticwave |14.8K
“Let me do this nice thing for you, Derek, no strings attached,” said nobody ever.
Dude, Werewolves by mysecretashes | 29.6K
Stiles gets partnered with Cora for a history project, and they become bros. Also, he kind of falls in love with her older brother, Derek.
Intermediate Braiding Skills by  apocryphal | 10.4K
In which Lydia assembles her Halloween costume, learns to make friends, and shamelessly exploits her father's crush on Stiles Stilinski.
reason to stay by  bleep0bleep | 12.5K
It's the last week of October, and a small town baker has run into his first crush again. Fate might have other ideas. Stiles tries for romance with a little help from what Beacon Hills does best— Halloween.
sure to lure something bad by  lazulisong | 4K
Stiles has the best worst ideas, or so he thinks. Derek isn't so sure about that.
Stiles dresses up as a werewolf, Derek dresses like Red Riding Hood, NOTHING ends in tears.
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday | 21K
Or, the one where pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale's fraternity.
wishing to be the friction in your jeans by thatworldinverted | 3.3K
Stiles is just trying to go to work every day and earn a paycheck. It's not his fault he keeps getting distracted by six feet of muscle and the angriest scowl this side of the Cascades.
I'm Your Boogie Man by  Jmeelee | 4K
Five times Derek and Stiles ended up accidentally wearing couples costumes on Halloween, and the one Halloween they ended up a couple.
Everybody Make a Scene by  skoosiepants | 4.4K
Stiles and Derek have some kind of unspoken Halloween decorating competition that also involves baked goods and flirting.
The One With the Treats by  mikkimouse | 1.6K
Stiles really hadn't wanted to go to Satomi's inter-pack Halloween party. He'd spent the past week trying to summon up a horrible illness or some other excuse, but all he'd managed was a slightly scratchy throat that lasted all of two hours.
Veils and Moonbeams by  kaistrex (weishen) | 2.6K
Because if anyone would become an (illegal) Animagus to surprise the boy they liked, it would be Stiles Stilinski.
Treat Cute by  Cobrilee | 1.2K
Derek loves Halloween because he gets to let his wolf out. This Halloween gives him a different reason to love the holiday. (It gives him Stiles.)
The Accidental Hale Brood by  Julibean19 | 42.3K
The one in which Stiles and Derek have been BCPD partners for years when they are assigned Halloween duty and run into a couple of kids from the orphanage. One fake marriage and two real adoptions later, they somehow become a family.
Little Red Riding Hoodie and the Sourwolf by  SourWolfie (pieprincess_andthe_fallenangel) | 7.2K
The one where Stiles wears a revealing little red riding hood costume to Lydia's Halloween party.
Something Wicked This Way Comes by  Acherona, trulywicked | 13.3K
“I’d rock a dress and heels better than you ever could but no. I have an appointment to watch paint peel.” Stiles started to walk away with Scott.
“Prove it.” Jackson smirked when that made Stilinski freeze.
A Boy in Wolf's Clothing by  kyaticlikestea | 5.2K
Five times Stiles turns to the wolf for Halloween, and one time the wolf turns to him.
Something Spooky, Something Blue by crossroadswrite | 2.4K
Derek sighs and boredly stuffs a handful of gummi bears in his mouth, straight out of a Halloween candy bowl Aunt Olivia insists in buying every year even if they never get trick or treaters this far into the woods.
He tilts his head and tunes back into the boys’ conversation, which has been the prime time entertainment of the Hales for the past ten minutes or so.
Can I Keep You? by  wearing_tearing | 16K
After practically being raised watching Buffy, The X-Files, and Ghostbusters, Stiles liked to think his reaction to seeing a shimmery shadow resembling a seventeen year old boy floating ten inches above ground and glaring fiercely at him wouldn’t be to let out a high pitch scream, try to karate chop him, and then, when that obviously didn’t work, throw a basketball at him.
A basketball that just went right through the boy’s stomach.
or, the Sterek Casper AU.
You’re the Only One(sie) for Me by  mikkimouse | 8.4K
Stiles buys Halloween costumes online and badgers Derek into wearing one for a party at the Preserve, because they're friends now and friends do those kinds of things. It's all fun and games until he and Derek turn into their costumes.
Stiles probably should have done a little more research on the seller.

Hi hi, may I humbly ask for your fav Stiles' POV fics?
Here you go! These are some of my favorite pov stiles fics, in no particular order. Hope you enjoy!
The Company I Keep by secondstar
Stiles has a favorite table at the library. Then some asshole comes along and steals it from him.
Every Step You Take by Nokomis
Stiles accidentally ends up magically bound to Derek. It’s super.
Occam’s Razor by MissAnnThropic
When Stiles goes to sleep, he’s a junior in high school. He wakes up in a world where he’s twenty-four and married to Derek Hale. Stiles just can’t seem to catch a break.
The Right Number by kyaticlikestea
When Stiles Stilinski's phone gets switched at the gym, he really just wants it back. The last thing he's expecting is to fall hopelessly in lust with the guy who's got his phone.
So, of course, that's exactly what happens.
No Homo by orphan_account
Stiles' sophomore year starts something like this:3 FourLokos+ 1 peer-pressuring cat- 1 best bro to end all best bros= 1 Craigslist ad headline that reads "str8 dude - m4m - strictly platonic".Derek is the fool who replies.
No Refunds or Exchanges by badwolfbadwolf
Stiles is the newest deputy in the Beacon Hills Sheriff’s Department, and has maybe just been a little in love with Derek Hale since Stiles had made a fool of himself in front of him at the SD summer picnic a few years ago. Being married to him—only for the sake of not getting deported—is going to suck in new and unusual ways.
To Feel Your Heart as It’s Keeping Mine by Vendelin
Stiles and Derek have been dating for four months, when Derek gets in an accident and loses all his memories from the past year and a half. Now, he’s once again the Derek Stiles used to despise, and even worse, Derek thinks that he still hates Stiles’ guts.
Kaleidoscope by Vendelin
Stiles spends a year before college working at the all-night coffee shop in town. It's nice and quiet, until one dark and brooding Derek starts coming in every morning, ordering coffee so strong that it should not be fit for human consumption. Ever. Stiles tries not to be affected by the mystery guy, but it's not like anything else happens around here, so really, what did you expect? And when he's already in too deep, he realises he might even be in way over his head...
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday
So far, college has taught Stiles three things:
1) Eight am classes are cruel and unusual and should be avoided at all costs, even if it means having to enroll in something truly hideous instead, like Econ 101.
2) Dorm security is just as tight as Stiles’ orientation leader had promised it would be, and the dude guarding Scott’s dorm in particular does not respond well to bribes.
3) Mrs. McCall clearly had no clue what she was talking about when she’d insisted that Scott and Stiles needed to branch out and room with strangers, so it’s all her fault that Scott ended up with a total dick of a roommate and Stiles got stuck all the way across campus with some guy who has a girlfriend two towns over and is thus never around.
Or, the one where pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale's fraternity.
A Desperate Arrangement by mikkimouse
"I'm sorry, I believe there's something wrong with my hearing," Stiles said. "Because I could have sworn you just told me you set up a betrothal agreement with the Hales. A betrothal agreement involving me. Me."
Scott smiled his easygoing smile and nodded, which told Stiles no, he hadn't misheard a damn thing.
After seven years of lengthy negotiations, the treaty between the Hales and the Argents has fallen apart and the two countries fell into war.
Months later, there's an uneasy truce, thanks to the intervention of King Scott McCall, but it won't last. In a desperate attempt to maintain the peace, the Hales sign a treaty with the McCalls to marry Prince Derek to Prince Stiles Stilinski, King Scott's brother.
In the history of the world, there have been many better ideas.
487 by Finduilas
Two years after graduating from the Police Academy, Stiles decides to transfer to the Beacon Hills Police Department, where his father is Chief. But when he gets assigned his new partner, Stiles isn't so sure if the transfer was a good idea. Derek 'Officer Grumpy Cat' Hale isn't exactly his first choice of partner. Then again, Stiles really isn't Derek's first choice either.
Letters by ericaismeg
“Stiles, this is getting ridiculous. Can you please do something about it?” Lydia demands. “Do anything. I don’t care. Go up and kiss him, ask him to prom this year, write him secret admirer love letters, whatever. Just do something.”
***
OR: The one where Lydia sets up an email account for Stiles to "confess his love" for Derek. And as fate would have it, they also end up becoming friends in person at the same time.
Your Vision Borrows Mine by hazyascent
Stiles has encountered a fair share of monsters before, way out of his league - the kinds that children are afraid are hiding in their closets and under the bed.
He’d even become one himself when he was void. The nogitsune was in his house, his body, and his mind.
But the worst monster he’s ever faced took even more from him and got away with it.
It’s why Stiles has never really been as terrified of werewolves and kanimas and darachs as he should have been. They’re really not that scary, relatively speaking, and he has a whole team on his side. They always found a way to win - until they lost someone they really loved.
Stiles doesn’t know how to be normal, not after everything he’s done and everyone he’s hurt. The nogitsune is gone, but another monster is on its heels.
His uncle is back. And Stiles has never felt more alone.

For the reader ask, can I be greedy and do two?! (I’m gonna be greedy): 🤣 and 🤷🏼‍♂️
YOU BE WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO OUT THERE, FREN
🤣 Has a fic ever made your face hurt from laughing so much?
okay i’m mad because i feel like there was something i was reading in the past year or so that literally made me burst out laughing and now i can’t remember what it was and i tried, but here are all the ones that i know at least made me grinny (there’s a wild steter in there too, so look out!):

🤷 What thing that your fandom loves do you just not “get”?
there are so many. so, so many. pack mom stiles and intrusive, overprotective, weirdly involved laura hale are two that jump right to mind for the teen wolf fandom.
in an overarching way: mates. i do not get that. for me, the magic is in two people choosing each other, not having any guarantees as to fate or destiny or the future, because knowing is what? that’s nothing, that’s abdicating free will and hard choices and the little moments that stack together to make bonds unbreakable. i’m a puzzle pieces person, things not fitting, having to rethink and restrategize, knowing there’s a connection but not always confident in it, filling up more and more of the corners and edges and building on what’s already there to make something cohere, something that was once separate and now clearly goes together. soulmates is big picture, it’s cheating, the work that needs to be done doesn’t get done because, hey, we already know the outcome. they’re usually, ‘i know it’s supposed to be yOU but hOW can it be you’ type fics and while i get the fun of that, i do (and i get that same type of fun from fake dating/pretend relationship fics without free will going bye-bye), i hate that the catalyst isn’t the characters but this outside force going: if you follow the steps, you will get the reward. and, like, i don’t want… ikea furniture from my fanfiction? i want this impossible, unbalanced, unpredictable disaster of a contraption where you’re not really sure what its function is or how long it will stay standing because you’re never really quite done with it but, at the end of the day, everyone’s really proud to stand next to it and say: we made that, all on our own and, yeah, maybe it won’t stand the test of time but fuck if it doesn’t mean something to us. i TOTALLY GET why that is not everyone’s thing but that is very much my thing. i also don’t like the fulcrum on which soulmate-y universes rest, that idea that you are incomplete on your own. you need this other thing to make you whole.
because, hey, no. you’re already a whole, complete person living a life before anyone else bumbles into it.
also, a/b/o is like a rape-y version of all that to me. where now one of the characters for sure isn’t in their right mind but, hey, there’s this outside force: biological imperative to back ya.
not to say i haven’t read things with literally all of those in different fics and liked them (an a/b/o is literally one of my top ten in sterek fandom), but it’s something to overcome for me because at their basest components: i, personally, do not like them. i would also say they’re only things i don’t get because of their prevalence, not their existence.
ask more questions here if i haven’t bored you all to death yet :P
