I was reading a story recently where Stiles and the Sheriff were talking about the things that keep happening around them and the Sheriff said something like Stiles talks and acts like veteran soldiers do and after thinking about it that analogy does fit his character so well. It also made me really want to read more stories to do with that idea so I was wondering if you knew any?

Here's some where he has PTSD.

(1/1 I 3,273 I Not Rated I No Pairing)

Stiles goes to a therapist who doesn't try to kill him. Surprisingly it works out well.

(4/? I 4,838 I Teen I Sterek)

Derek isn't used to feeling anything as deeply rooted as the feeling revolving around the hyper teen that goes by the name Stiles Stilinski. It takes Derek a while to wrestle these emotions into a form that allows him to decided he wants to pursue them. Yet, he's normally the one being chased, Derek has never had a problem getting peoples attention, he has a good body and charming looks, so he has to work out how to win the heart of the hyper teen. And to put it gently, Stiles has his very own courting ritual that is unlike any wolf or human ritual. It's just, neither of them knows that. To make it worse, the wolf under Derek's skin is growing impatient.

(1/? I 6,068 I Explicit I Scallison)

Stiles: Why haven't burnt alive? How could Derek die? Why do I care if he died? *** Scott: I need you to own me, now. Isaac: turn around, little whore. *** Danny: And if you want to try some more of that stuff we did, count on me. *** Young Derek: come here you little superhero! Mietek: I am not a superhero, I am special human!

When Stiles woke up for his eighteenth birthday, he was expecting a day of celebration and maybe a pack party. He was not expecting to wake up beneath the Nemeton, nor sprouting four furry paws in an alternate reality to learn what it means to be a Guardian. He really should clarify to the universe that he would like a break for at least a whole year before the next supernatural event comes his way.

(2/2 I 80,129 I Mature I Sterek)

“What happened? Where are you? What’s that sound?”

Derek jumped, having momentarily forgotten Scott was on the phone with him because Stiles had started moving. He’d stalked over to the other side of the cave, still eying Derek warily and growling, then settled protectively over a mass of clothes, leaves and animal innards. It was probably where he was sleeping.

Lovely. No wonder he smelled like death.

“Stiles,” Derek said, answering Scott’s question. Or, one of them, at least.

“Stiles? What do you—Stiles is making that noise?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“How fast do you think you can make it to the south lot of the Preserve?”

(10/10 I 70,382 I Mature I Sterek)

"There . . ." Stiles swallowed and looked down at the bottle in his grasp as he slowly swirled the amber liquid inside. "There's really nothing left. For me. Everyone is . . . gone, and it feels like I haven't thought of tomorrow in years." His words rang in the air like a gunshot, he took another heavy drink. "I would trade every last breath I take to just have another shot—not even a guarantee, just a chance to make things right and bring back even one of them." -----

The pack was gone. He had nothing left. He had no one. With nothing to lose, Stiles puts everything on the line to go back in time to try to prevent the future from becoming his past. Broken, guarded, and haunted by his past, only one overgrown-pup of a wolf seems able to get past his defenses. Changing the future? Easy. Finding a place for himself in the Hale Pack? Impossible.

(64/64 I 127,977 I Explicit I Sterek)

Derek is not real. He's just a pretty form Stiles came up with. At least that's what Stiles keeps telling himself.

(15/15 I 234,195 I Not Rated I Sterek)

Set at the end of season 2, Stiles survives his encounter with Gerard and his goons, but it isn't easy.

The pack are letting him down again, his dad is not speaking to him, his life is just generally falling apart.

Until he has to get a bronze dagger to kill a siren and his whole world gets flipped on it's head!

(48/? I 480,285 I Explicit I Sterek)

Set at the end of Season 2. Stiles was kidnapped and tortured for hours. Yet no one came for him. Hurt and cast out of the pack by people he thought cared for him, what is he to do? He finds himself accompanied by someone he never expected and someone he is eternally grateful for. Derek feels betrayed and foolish for what he allowed to happen. Out of anger and hurt he forced a valuable member he really started to care for out of his pack. With the pack scattered and people hurt, what will come of them? Will they bond together again in time for the next big bad?

HEY FOLKS!

Kick off Pride by backing a super queer horror audio drama!

What's that? You haven't listened to Season 1 of Afflicted? Which has a ton of queer cast members and canonically queer characters including two trans dudes played by actual trans dudes? Well then GO LISTEN TO IT.

But anyway Season 2 isn't a sequel, but a different story set in a different time and place. It DOES, however, have a lot of the same cast as the first one, just in different roles. So you don't HAVE to have listened to the first season (you should still do it, though).

Please donate, even if it's just a $1. If you can't donate, please share (please share regardless, honestly).

BREAKING NEWS:

CAST LIST WAS JUST DROPPED, and ya boy (me) is the leeeaaaaaaaaaaad (and it's me bein' scared and screaming in the trailer). I hadn't been allowed to say until the official announcement.

But so seriously, PLEASE share this regardless if you back it or not. Please don't just like the post, please help spread it so more eyes can peep it.

I love this cast! They were amazing to work with in season one and I super want to work with them again! But this can only happen if it gets the funding it needs to pay everyone and produce this thing!

Hey! Your writing is amazing!! Do you have any Sterek fic recs?

Thank you so much 💖! I have absolutely loads of recs - way more than I could possibly fit in one post - but here's a little selection of things that I've read or re-read recently for you. It's a mixture of genres, some are classics, others are newer, but I loved them all. In no particular order, here you go: No Superman by WhoNatural - E, ~48k words Scrubs AU. I've never seen Scrubs, but if this fic is anything to go by I probably should. This is one of those fics that I'll re-read every time I see it linked somewhere. If you're into medical dramas, this is a great one. A+

A Functioning Adult’s Field Guide to Enemies With Benefits by BisexualGoblin - E, ~31k words A delicious case of enemies to lovers, with a boatload of misunderstandings and a hefty case of pining idiots. Love it.

The Importance of Turning Around Three Times Before Lying Down by Otter - M, ~31k words I'm a sucker for fics where Stiles unwittingly ends up looking after a dog that is very much not a dog, but a Derek. This one is excellent.

Lock All The Doors Behind You by Entanglednow - M, ~25k words There's just something about a fic where Derek is feral and Stiles is the only one he trusts to get near him. I think this is one of the very first Sterek fics I ever read, and it still hits just right.

A (Sort of) Fairytale by Briecheesie - M, ~25k words Fox Stiles. It's a classic, and it's so good.

Introduction to Zero-Sum Anthropology by Apocryphal - T, ~19k words Derek Hale deserves nice things. But he cannot simply accept them, so a war of gift-giving must be in order. So so cute.

this dance of days by Imprintofadream - M, ~28k words We've got Firefighter Derek, we've got Deputy Stiles, we've got wildfires and a delicious bit of slow burn. These are all good things, and they add up to something pretty excellent. 10/10.

I'm Not Asking Questions, I'm Taking My Chances by Keldjinfae - E, ~80k words Let's get a bit of fantasy going here! Stiles is the prince of a kingdom where supernatural entities are banished, Derek is a werewolf with a mission to complete. It's not a Merlin AU, but if you're into Merlin I'm pretty sure you'll love this (and I am very much into Merlin, so obviously I loved it too). The plot had me hooked, and once I started reading I could not stop. 100% recommend.

DILF by Twentysomething - E, ~30k words I'm not always the biggest one for kid fic, but this one is excellent. Stiles is a kindergarten teacher, Derek is a single parent to his two nephews. There's slow burn and a wolf sanctuary, and some impromptu howling. And Derek is, indeed, a DILF.

The Lawn Ranger by Snowjob - M, ~47k words High school AU. It's summer, Stiles is a jock with a broken arm and a crush, Derek is the werewolf who gets roped into mowing his lawn. All. Good. Things.

Where the Real Beasts Are by Kaistrex - E, ~109k words Do I love Stiles as a prince? Yes. Yes I do. Long and plotty and excellent. There are evil Argents, there are direwolves, there's some wonderful slow burn. All things that we love.

Bogarted by HalfFizzbin - M, ~3k words Hilarious. Just A+. Derek is hit by a film noir curse, and it's just as perfect as you would imagine.

Stand Fast in Your Enchantments by DevilDoll - E, ~77k words It's a classic, and I can't not rec it. Derek is feral, Stiles is magical, and they're help captive together. Read it. If you've already read it, heck, why not read it again?! I certainly will.

Wild Horses by ThePsychicClam - E, ~79k words Ranch AU. Derek is a drifter that ends up at the Stilinski's failing ranch. I love this one. It has all the wonderful slow-burn UST goodness that I love, plus horses! 10/10 would recommend.

Can I rec my own fic? It feels kind of self-aggrandising, but I'm proud of it and I'm not above giving myself a little promo. I'll call it a bonus item and just leave it at the bottom here:

Way Down We Go by Wolfspurr - E, ~50k words I wrote it! If you like stuff set around S3B, post-Nogitsune healing, and slow burn roadtrip fic, I hope you'll give this one a chance 💖

also I promise this is unrelated to anything else I’ve been posting about but like. We’re not doing the “rainbow capitalism” complaint this year. Sorry. I know pitching this particular hissy fit is really important to some of you. But years when the conservative movement du jour is to have a literally identical tantrum about any company that’s putting rainbows on drink cans or reusable grocery bags because they view that as “supporting groomers and pedophiles,” we don’t get to throw fuel on that fire. Even if you disagree with the fire on an ideological level, it doesn’t matter to the fire! This year, feel however you want to feel about any given company making their logo into a rainbow flag, but I promise the “boycott Anheuser Busch because they’re supporting Deviants by making our beer gay” people do not give a shit whether you’re supporting their cause from a gay standpoint or a homophobic one, they just care about the net result, which is that by getting outwardly mad about this, you are lending them support

Rainbow capitalism is what happens when the soulless money-hungry engines that dominate the world economy conclude that the Queer Side of The Force is winning. That the money lost by alienating hateful shitweasels is less than what they expect to gain from reaching out, in their infinite hunger and cynicism, to queer people.

Like, it’s crass as hell, but it’s still a good sign and we should encourage it, as it may help to drive the people who hate us for being alive back in to their holes.

I was talking with a friend recently about our favourite images from queer history, and while I adore the compilations of photos of people being explicitly and obviously queer, I wanted to share some of the images that have touched my heart. All of these are of queer subjects and I have linked some articles about the people in question below, in case anyone is interested! I have a lot more so tell me if y’all are interested.

I wish people hadn't forgotten that witch was a gender-neutral term. That it isn't just something they called the women they killed, but everyone. Disproportionately women? Sure. But there were still a lot of men.

And "witch" was often a catch-all. It was for the "werewolves," anything that could shape-shift into an animal or something animal-like.

A "witch" was different depending on what country you were in, Denmark differing from Italy differing from England differing from Romania differing from the Colonies... Some made pacts with Satan, some were born under a bad sign, some were just rude people you didn't like, some were remnants of old Roman stories of owl demons, some posed as wet nurses to feed infants poison from their breast. In some areas the words for witch, sorcerer, vampire, and werewolf were practically interchangeable. Sometimes a story about a type of vampire in northern Germany that liked to jump on your back sounded a lot like the kind of thing people elsewhere got tried as a witch for.

And for sure, you can bet that in most cases the poor sap who got tried and killed as a witch was just someone other people didn't like, or some unlucky person in the wrong place at the wrong time and a natural disaster or other misfortune was attributed to them. Never doubt that "witches" were just people who were more than likely victims. Just...remember that it's a gender-neutral term.

Anyway, someone on FB posted a shirt that said "They didn't burn witches. They burned women." And rather than be a pedantic dick in the comments, I thought I'd just come to this little void and ramble a bit about witch history.

Sterek, pretending to be married

Derek/Stiles: Pretending To Be Married

Stiles is working at this really shitty bar, okay, and there’s this dude that keeps hitting on him and it’s not something he’s interested in; so he starts wearing a ring on his left ring finger, just to see if it manages to stop the dude.  It does, but now he’s being asked all kinds of questions about who he’s married to and – he doesn’t MEAN to say Derek’s name, but when he’s describing his fake husband, it kind of sounds an awful lot like Derek, so.

So maybe he calls his fake husband Derek, but it’s not like the real Derek is ever going to turn up to the bar.

Except there’s trouble – of course there is – and so no one wants the squishy human to have to come home alone, and normally it’s Scott picking him up, but for some reason this one night it ends up being Derek.

And Stiles is kind of detailed in his descriptions of his imaginary husband, right down to the leather jacket and perma stubble, so EVERYONE knows who Derek is when he walks into the bar.

Stiles mumbles under his breath, because he knows Derek will hear, begging that Derek please, please, please go along with this and Stiles will make it up to him later.

And he’s super surprised when Derek doesn’t even need a moment to slip into character – they stay after closing to have drinks with Stiles’ co workers and it’s KILLING Stiles to have Derek be so affectionate and intimate with him.

Before they leave, Sandy, one of the other bar staff tells Stiles that she’s been married five times, but she knows when a couple is going to last, and that he should appreciate what he has.

Then they’re both real silent on the drive back to Stiles’, and then when Derek pulls up he says something like “you could’ve just asked me out.”.
