they got no idea about you and me by @rachelrae

When the Ice Breaks (3/3) by @LeviosaWitch

~ Shane hides a career ending injury from Ilya for months, terrified of disappointment and loss. When his body gives out, so does his carefully constructed facade.

The Secrets We Kept (21/21) by @Larissa_liest

~ Shane Hollander disappears from the NHL at twenty with a career-ending “injury.” Four years later, he’s the new assistant coach for the Ottawa Centaurs when Ilya Rozanov signs with the team. His former rival. His secret hookup. The father of his daughter. Ilya doesn’t know Lily exists and Shane plans to keep it that way. But three-year-olds don’t keep secrets, and neither do pale blue eyes. (Check tags! A rare mpreg fic because I usually hate mpreg)

i love you, i love you, i love you by @seariarly

~ When Ilya proposes he could marry Svetlana to get citizenship, he did expect Shane to be a little surprised. However, what he didn't expect was for Shane to look away from him without saying anything. Ilya had never regretted anything more in his life.

You Have Reached Lily by @ItsMayBiTheWay

~ Hayden calls Lily after Shane's injury.

have I found you, flightless bird? by @clockworkaim

~ Shane Hollander has wings. Ilya Rozanov loves him. There's no 'despite' about it. (Wings as a metaphor for autism - trust me, the author pulls it off very well.)

Collide (3/3) by @pendr_gon and @phoenixortheflame

~ Sci-Fi/Space AU! The year is 2184. An asteroid 60 kilometres wide is on a collision path with the Earth. As a last-ditch effort to save humanity, the EEU (Eastern European Union) launches four cosmonauts each carrying 300 embryos into space. Only one makes it off planet alive.

the river of my arms have found the ocean (4/4) by @vivianno

( i am done ) trying for beauty by @hcneymooners

the cadence of a secret (8/8) by @marigoldens

~ Soulmate AU! Ilya and Shane are soulmates, and their bond prevents them from both talking and being apart. Unfortunately, the only thing that’ll make the pain stop is confessing the one thing they can say: that they’re in love.

~ Shane gets stuck in a time loop of the day where Marlow hits him. 

By Halves by @tmp93

~ Yuna and David meet Ilya Rozanov at the hospital after Shane’s injury.

loser, lover by @kalonvk

~ University AU! Shane Hollander is what you call a prodigy. Incredibly smart. Talented. Captain of the university's hockey team. He has no opponents. That's it, until a mysterious exchange student, Ilya Rozanov makes a surprise appearance. He storms into his life, taking everything Shane has diligently vowed to protect. Even his own heart.

After the snow fall by @penpen_xo

~ Shane slips and falls on ice while out walking Anya, and Anya is just your everyday Lassie.

Boring Moments Between Life & Death by @Acinonyx1

~ Death! Shane and Life!Ilya AU! 5 times Shane and Ilya meet for work, and one time they meet for themselves. 

we were together. (i forgot the rest.) (3/3) by @foxriverblues

~ Bartender!Shane and Mafia Boss!Ilya. Mild angst in third chapter, but otherwise very fluffy.

We Both Go Down Together (8/8) by @NotALonelyTraveler

~ Ao3 user accessible only. Shane is one of the lucky few humans in the world predisposed to Hanahaki disease. He copes with it as well as you might expect.

Root Rot (4/4) by @Content_Scrapbooker

~ Hanahaki disease AU! Shane Hollander loved Ilya Rozanov, so much that it was going to kill him. He has to make the most of the time he has left after the Olympics, before the roots really take hold.

The Second First Time (24/24) by @Allive

~ Shane Hollander wakes up in a hospital room convinced it’s 2016 — and that Ilya Rozanov is still his biggest rival, someone he’s supposed to hate. But the world has changed. It’s 2025. They play for the same team, live in the same house, and Ilya Rozanov is wearing a wedding ring. Now Shane has to relive nine lost years, learn to trust his ‘enemy,’ and find out whether he can fall in love with his own husband all over again.

(and i want these words to) make things right (11/11) by @xianvar

~ Marriage of convenience AU! After the NHL 2012-2013 lockout, the KHL threatens to keep Ilya in Russia and forbid him from returning to the NHL. Shane finds himself pulled into a harebrained scheme to make sure his rival is safe – and it might just work. It’s not like there are feelings at play that could get in the way, right?

fall in love again and again (2/2) by @Ehlihr

~ Time loop AU! Shane wakes up on the same Tuesday over and over again after leaving Rozanov in a rush. Tuesday is his second least favourite day of the week, so he's not really happy about it.

underneath my skin is all you see by @sapphicblight

~ Ao3 user accessible only. Soulmate AU! In which Ilya Rozanov is the name on Shane’s wrist, but Shane Hollander is not on Ilya’s.

Etched Skin by @staticsilencee

~ Soulmate AU! Ilya has lived his life knowing he would never find a soulmate, and Shane has lived his life waiting for his soulmate to acknowledge him.

it's a dance (we know the moves) by @anne_with_an_eth

~ Groundhog Day/Time Loop AU! Shane and Ilya are trapped in the same time loop, and have to figure it out together.

where nobody knows you (12/12) by @dottie_wan_kenobi

~ Yuna Hollander POV-centric! Yuna and David find out about Lily, while he's in the hospital. It's a while before they find out about Ilya.

Proof of life by @cloudberrysoda

~ In which everything is the same, except Shane is a vampire. He’s not very good at it. Kind of porn with plot ngl.

The Consort of Crown and Blood (15/15) by @house_of_lantis

~ Vampire Modern Royalty AU! When a human head of state publicly insults the ancient Vampire King, the price of peace is a political union. Shane Hollander, high school teacher and assistant hockey coach, is one of the only humans in the world with a rare bloodline. He’s given an impossible choice: become a Tribute Consort to vampire Crown Prince Ilya, or watch the human race burn. (Incredible world building and geopolitics, by the way.)

These Icy Waters (5/5) by @jeejaschocolate

~ Cursed!Ilya and Folktale Creature! Shane. Ghosts and monsters AU. When Cliff Marleu mysteriously drowns, all fingers point to Ilya Rozanov. But something darker and more sinister may be at play, something that is steeped in curses and family secrets, and Shane has his own secrets to protect.

there's no pretending by @moonsock

~ The term, he’s told, is temporary retrograde amnesia. Ilya doesn’t need the direct translation to understand: he forgot things. Ten years of things.

it's always been you by @guusmin

~  Ilya and Shane have played on the same team for years. Ilya confesses his love to Shane in Russian while unbelievably drunk in a bar bathroom.

If You're Scared (I'm On My Way) (3/3) by @kanekicure

~ Zombie apocalypse AU! The zombie apocalypse starts when Rose is breaking up with Shane (luckily at his apartment). Ilya travels the span of America to try to reach Shane's side.

Back to the egg (it's crimson and gold) (3/3) by @passacig

~ University AU with FTM! Shane! Shane and Ilya once knew each other in what feels like another life. Years later, Shane has transitioned, buried his past and finally embraced his truest self. He comes to McGill to play on the men’s hockey team—only to find his roommate is Ilya Rozanov.

The People I Knew (They Got Me Surrounded For A Mile or Two) (7/7) by @icetealuvr

~ Shane gets diagnosed with cancer. He is still determined to win the Stanley Cup. Ilya Rozanov is down so bad for Shane Hollander. He doesn't know Shane has cancer. No one does.

Mama's Boy, Mama's Boy (5/5) by @WhimperSoldier

~ Shane can see ghosts AU! Shane's first mistake was going to talk to Ilya Rozanov before their game. His second was immediately, stupidly, meeting the eyes of Rozanov’s very much dead mother hovering at his side. (I truly cannot recommend this enough.)

Fractured Lights (15/15) by @shredded_potato

~ University AU! Shane’s preferences are simple: older, rougher, married men who lie to their wives and gone before morning. Ilya Rozanov is nineteen, Russian, and already moving into his dorm. Cue in covert hookups, stupidly questionable life choices, and a rookie who stares at Shane like he’s a particularly fascinating bug under a microscope. Now he has to explain why he keeps getting texts from "Mr. Chicago" while trying to teach this kid how to use the campus laundry without melting his sweaters.

white whale by @cutshot

~ University AU! Best friends to lovers Shane and Ilya, throughout the years. (Really well written, and the payoff is sooo good.)

i've been stuck for so long (we just got the start wrong) by @beagoldfish

~ Groundhog Day AU! After the tuna melt fiasco, Shane Hollander wakes up in a time loop.

Scars left behind (3/3) by @silvermoongirl10

~ 4 times Shane thinks someone on the Centaurs is telling him he isn't good enough - just like in Montreal. +1 time Ilya sees the scars Montreal left on Shane and tells his husband he has always been more than good enough. It was Montreal who was never good enough.

pink shallop shells (2/2) by Anonymous

~ Lighthouse keeper Ilya Rozanov tries to drown himself in the Newfoundland Sea. Luckily or unluckily for him, a certain merman saves him from the depths.

you saved me from myself (and i didn't even realize) by @xarahinthedark

~ Hanakaki AU! Shane doesn't eat much—he attributes it to watching his carb intake and needing to stay light and speedy, and for no other reason at all. And definitely not because of the flowers that keep him full these days.

a sound is still a sound around no one (9/9) by @dykeries

~ Amnesia AU! In 2023, Shane takes a bad hit on the ice. When he wakes up, the last thing he remembers is a tuna melt. There’s a lot to get used to.

the lines are all but drawn by @bluerosebouquet

~ Shane keeps seeing his ex on dating apps, and it's driving him insane. (This is not a sign to get back with your ex LOL.)

Borderline (5/5) by @Wintersbane

~ After ignoring his phone in favor of getting split in two by his situationship, Shane is stranded in Boston at the start of the zombie apocalypse. Ilya is left with nowhere to go, and Shane refuses to leave him behind. In order to survive, they have to cross the Canadian border and get to the cottage, together. But getting to Canada is far easier said than done. When Ilya is badly injured, their road-trip becomes a race against the dead—and the infection spreading through Ilya’s leg. (Eventual happy ending, trust!)

twenty stitches in a hospital room (10/10) by @hollidayparty

~ Shane's injuries during the Boston/Montreal game are much more life-threatening than in canon. Ilya's quick thinking and bone-deep instincts are the only reason he survives.

i've been playing dead by my whole life by @writerintheory

~ Soulmate AU! The last words you ever hear from your soulmate are tattooed on your chest. Ilya and Shane still argue over the party in Game Changers, Ilya still already chose Shane, and everything goes so much worse after Shane leaves. (NO MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH, ANGSTY AF BUT HAPPY ENDING)

a year safe in your heart (6/6) by Anonymous

~ The summer before Ilya joins the Centaurs, Shane wakes up nervous. It doesn't stop from there. OR Shane has already lived a timeline in which Ilya died in a plane crash after joining the Centaurs. He's determined that it doesn't happen again. (SUPER ANGSTY!!)

Lily and Judith (6/6) by @Finally_Facing_Failure

~ After Shane Hollander's career ending injury in 2014, he lives a quiet life at his cottage with his two daugthers. His life is turned upside down when his youngest accidentally texts Ilya Rozanov, Shane's former lover and secret crush. Can Shane find a place for Ilya in his new life? (Single Dad Shane AU)

i'll believe in anything (11/11) by @bisoubug

~ Ao3 user accessible only. Shane is a ghost, Ilya is a collegiate hockey star part-time ghost hunter who can see dead people, and it's entirely possible that they once knew each other in a past life.

Night Changes (3/3) by @proseandpulse

~ Shane is drunk, concussed, and hiding in a phone booth when he calls the only number he knows by heart. The man who answers is not Hayden Pike.

one day i'll watch as you're leaving (and life will lose all meaning) (15/15) by @hollidayparty

~ What if Shane and Ilya don't make up so easily after the Boxing Day fight? The Centaur's plane never malfunctions, so Shane never proposes. Instead, Ilya gives him an ultimatum on coming out and going public. It backfires spectacularly. (TW: Suicidal ideation)

The Importance of Strawberries (20/20) by @lostinpinerocklands

~ Amnesia AU! In 2031, Shane wakes up in the hospital certain that it's 2010. Ilya is there to remind him of the two decades he's missed and the life they've built along the way. Kid fic, no smut, married Hollanov.

love in exile has nowhere to go by @justhockey

~ Shane doesn’t get hurt, they break up, and they don’t talk for five long years. Until Shane is traded to Ottawa.

Have Fun and Come Back Safe (2/2) by @Rainbow_Femme

~ One earthquake, two lost phones, and many articles citing a mistranslated headline later and Shane needs to get a message home that he and Rose are alive. But he and Rose are millennials and whoops, they haven't had to memorize a phone number since they were kids.

The Knockout Lockout (3/3) by @PillowForte

~ Established relationship! Ilya gets knocked out during a game and it fucks with his memory. A hospital stay in which Ilya moons over his husband despite not knowing it's just husband. (He thinks it's doomed yaoi but it's not doomed yaoi.) Still angsty because Ilya is very confused and sad and Shane ain't having a good time either.

falling into you by @quinnfuhbeay

~ Tunameltdown AU where Ilya makes him tuna melts and says his name and Shane doesn’t freak out and run away. Well, he does freak out, but he also stays. Or the one where Shane doesn’t realize that Ilya’s his boyfriend for a solid three months. (Somehow both a fix-it fic and uniquely angsty in its own right.)

keep a place for me (3/3) by @agetwellcard

~ Childhood friends to lovers AU! When Shane is in junior high, Ilya's family moves to Canada. Instead of meeting as adults, they grow up together. Shane learns Russian and Ilya spends a majority of his time at the Hollander household. When they start their professional hockey careers, they have to learn how to be opponents instead of teammates, but also how to be apart for the first time in their lives. When Ilya suggests that they sleep together, Shane has to balance their friendship and their casual relationship.

change like the sky (5/5) by @cupocoffee

~ Shane gets outed and accidentally hurts himself, the world thinks he's tried to end his life, and Ilya struggles to come to terms with mortality in more than one sense of the word.

i want a scar that looks like you by @angel_deux

~ Soulmate AU! Shane has been covering up his soulmark for as long as Ilya has known him. Ilya doesn't have a soulmark at all.

[promptsblog]

"Were you so drunk you don't remember if you killed somebody?"

"Well, I... can't rule it out "

"I can. You were passed out in my bathtub at the time of the murder."

"Oh. Well. That's a relief."

"Is it?"

"Well..."

"You need help, Kyle ."

"Of course. Of course. But I'm not a murderer. So... silver lining."

[blanklier]

hollanov fic recs, part seven!

(one, two, three, four, five, six, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve)

this time with a bruise/pain kink section, because i accidentally accumulated them.

route 96 kanata explicit, 28k, ongoing. shane hollander blows his knee and his ice hockey career before it can truly start. he goes to collage instead, and meets nhl player ilya rozanov in a bar. it's not a happy fic, but by god do you need to read it anyway.

snapping at a butterfly teen, 2k, oneshot. shane thinks about things beyond hockey. it's not as clean-cut as it sounds. just a really good character exploration.

the best person to be stuck in an elevator with gen, 7k, oneshot. part of a series (all a good read!). yuna hollander did not anticipate getting stuck in a hotel elevator with her son's rival, ilya rozanov, but that's how the day is going anyway. he's not so bad.

mine to devour explicit, 5k, oneshot. they got a handle on the whole 'cursing players with pussies' thing back in 2007. supposedly. shane wakes up with one anyway, years later. ilya is very much delighted at his husband's newest addition.

chisel between my cheekbones explicit, 6k, oneshot. ilya wants to know what those other men did to shane, and he wants to know it firsthand. i love a possessive/jealous couple, if you couldn't tell.

cottaging explicit, 9k, oneshot. they fuck without a condom for the first time. shane is a very coach/trainer tinge of dom about it. have you seen those videos of men planking until failure? read this. read this if you haven't either.

malysh mature, 5k, oneshot. a woman comes forward, claiming to have had ilya rozanov's child in 2012. naturally, everyone is very calm about this. shane was ready to do some crimes in here and i support him every step of the way.

rule 69.3 - contact inside the goal crease gen, 2k, oneshot. shane hollander isn't a name known to ilya rozanov, but the metros' new goalie doesn't seem like anything special- at first. a short fic, but delicious with implications.

speak to us of clothes teen, 5k, oneshot. shane hollander hires a stylist. this is her pov. i cackled a little too much at that poor, poor shirt.

buzzer beater explicit, 8k, oneshot. shane doesn't particularly enjoy jerking off. ilya solves the problem- it happens on his say so, or not at all.

luxe explicit, 3k, oneshot. ilya fucks shane in and on one of his cars.

i wanna do (bad things with) you explicit, 3k, oneshot. to contrast that last one- hollanov fuck in shane's 'boring' car.

circle back season teen, 9k, oneshot. shane can travel to the future, sometimes. ilya finds this out when 18-year-old shane hollander visits them at the cottage.

not a lot, just forever gen, 1k, oneshot. part of a series. ilya peels the tangerines for shane, because he hates doing it. love is stored in the fruit, as they say. honestly i just love thoughtless little acts of domesticity.

aperol spritz teen, 2k, oneshot. part of a series. shane and rose hang out, and rose tries to get some gossip out of her friend; namely, why he looks like a man well-fucked.

subtle, ambiguous, and often unintentional mature, 3k, oneshot. shane hollander tries to get through an ad shoot. the microaggressions make it hard.

i only see it when you show me explicit, 7k, oneshot. not partners with the previous fic, but works very well read back-to-back. shane unloads some of his stress on ilya. in the wise words of this fic's tags, 'explaining racism to your white boyfriend actually goes well for once'.

the prayers we covered in dust explicit, 7k, oneshot. for years, ilya tries not to be possessive of shane hollander. he fails, mostly.

small serendipity gen, 3k, oneshot. shane gets lost in the airport when he's seven. a nice russian woman helps him find his parents again.

i'll hold you through the storm gen, 2k, oneshot. a snowstorm upsets shane's routine, making him and ilya stay over at his parents'. ilya helps.

inside mature, 2k, oneshot. the fact that ilya can't crawl inside of shane's skin to be a single organism is pretty fucked up at best and ilya's personal hell at worst. again. i LOVE possessiveness.

Impact play/bruise section

hit me hard and soft explicit, 6k, oneshot. ilya slapping shane's face sparks a realization, and then immediately after, a whole lot more. what it says on the cover, boss. slapping.

handle with care explicit, 5k, oneshot. shane hollander, slowly falling into the knowledge that he's been ruined for anyone else. impact play/cbt, pretty intense all around, but by god is it good.

and i want what i want explicit, 14k, oneshot. shane does poorly in a game- and he wants, needs, to be punished. ilya helps. spanking, degradation, and a lot of bruising.

hold a cut inside explicit, 8k, ongoing. let's mix the homoeroticism of hockey with the toxic masculinity, add a pain kink, and shake. out comes shane hollander. quite honestly, one of my favorite fics for its framing of hockey and sex and pain as mirrors of each other.

counterbalance explicit, 3k, oneshot. ilya touches shane's bruises. it's a little more complicated than that, but very hot.

love sticks, sweat drips mature, 6k, complete. shane hollander doesn't fight on the ice, not really; ilya fixes that. pain kink, but also talks about racism, so it's not all fun and games. there's plenty of both, though.

head and body to you explicit, 4k, oneshot. shane hollander vs his body. some food issues inside, but mostly: bruises and pain kink.

[fiercene0n]

MORE PHOTOS OF ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND FROM OUR NY TRIP

tumblrs gonna become my secret lil gay diary bout this relationship i swearrrr.

new york was so magical, it was my first time ever getting to see the city, and i had so much fun.

[agent-odessa-over]

Yuna invites Ilya over for lunch. He is tempted to decline, believing it to be motivated by pity, but Shane is in Montreal and the loneliness of rambling around his too-big Ottowa house starts to feel like living in a mausoleum, so he accepts. It is this afternoon that he learns Shane's darkest secret. Darkest in name only, because it turns out to be quite the opposite in appearance.

After lunch they are seated in the den, fondly flipping through old photograph albums, when Ilya spies one that makes him lean over and squint. In the way of disposable camera film from the early aughts, it is grainy and overexposed, but there are no mistaking the warm brown eyes and pouty lips of Shane Hollander, looking blank faced at the camera. What comes as a surprise are the bleached blond ends of his dark hair, styled into crunchy looking spikes with obscene amounts of product.

Ilya emits a noise that can only be described as a squawk. Hand clapped to his mouth, because he barely trusts himself to speak, he chokes out, "What is...this?"

Yuna glances over nonchalantly. "Oh, that. Shane begged me to let him get frosted tips when he was 12."

Ilya will die. He will die right here, gagging on suppressed laughter, and Yuna will be forced to clean the mess of his remains off the berber carpet.

"I think he was trying to emulate some boy band he was obsessed with then. NSYNC maybe? I thought it was a bad idea, but David convinced me to let him try it out. Shane was going through a moody period, and he thought it might help."

"And-" Ilya squeaks in way too high a pitch, then clears his throat. "Ahem. And did it?"

Yuna thinks. "Hard to say. God, he was a bit of a bitchy preteen." She chuckles. "He had a poster of Lance Bass taped to his closet door. In hindsight, I should have guessed the gay thing much earlier."

Ilya can no longer contain his laughter. He doubles over with it, waving his hand and wheezing, "Sorry, sorry." He wipes tears from his eyes. "I can have this picture?"

Yuna shrugs. "Sure. The poster is probably still upstairs in his closet, if you want that, too. I've been meaning to clear it out-"

Ilya just stares at Yuna in wide eyed wonder. "Yes. I want." He dashes up the stairs so fast he nearly trips.

Stiles loves when people underestimate him. It's his thing. Oh, poor human me! Oh, I'm just a teenage boy! Oh, whatever shall I do when faced with danger! I'm just a skinny little human! Silly me! Look at me joking and laughing and making witty sarcastic comments!

He's the only son of a wildly protective single father who also happens to be the sheriff of the town. You think stiles doesn't know how to escape from all sorts of binds and cuffs and scenarios and doesn't know a shit ton of self defense and how to fucking shoot. HIS FATHER'S THE SHERIFF!!!! HIS BABYSITTERS ALL HIS LIFE HAVE BEEN DEPUTIES!!!! HE CAN BREAK INTO AND OUT OF THE STATION FOR FUN!!!

But he'll play the damsel in distress weak human as long as it works in his advantage.

I'm a bamf!Stiles truther for life

"dc is darker" "marvel has more fantasy" "dc is mystery and marvel is sci fi - " all of you are wrong. dc comics is when a man has black hair and blue eyes. marvel comics is when a man has blonde hair and blue eyes.

[hedwig221b]

Hi! I was wondering if u know any fics where Stiles is a spark or some kind of magic and has visions about the future? Some pack dynamics and feels and OF COURSE STEREK

Hi! There's not a lot but here's what I found

Where the Shadow Ends by Green 

Derek goes undercover to Delphi to figure out what's wrong with the oracle. He doesn't mean to fall in love.

Bearer of the Future by gamsii

“My mother was a mystic,” he will rarely say. Derek has heard the story twice before. “An oracle, they called her in our village. She could cast the fish-bones and read the way the moon pulled at the ocean. She could predict storms.” The boy does not finish his story. They watch the smoke furl, black into blackness, the night moonless.

Through Veiled Eyes by Dexterous_Sinistrous

“Lay with me,” Stiles plainly stated, as if he asked a menial thing of him. Derek narrowed his eyes at Stiles, observing him carefully as he kept his features stoically guarded. “To touch you is sacrilege,” he finally uttered, unable to completely deny his desire to discover what touching Stiles would be like. “What they force me to do is sacrilege,” Stiles countered, carefully observing Derek. “What you would do would be divine. You would keep me from being their plaything—taking a key player off the board in their pursuit of corruption. What I’ve asked of you … I’ve already seen it—the phantom touch of it lingering on me afterwards.”

Kingdoms Fall by Gia279 

Stiles Stilinski has been in the service of King Gerard Argent as the Royal Seer of the Kingdom of Silver since he was fourteen-years-old, and has been planning his escape for just as long. His big secret: more than half of his visions throughout his entire career have been faked. It's only a matter of time before Gerard discovers that his Seer is a fraud. Stiles intends to be gone before he figures it out. Lydia Martin, his only real friend and the Royal Enchantress, has been there just as long, and has a more pressing reason to escape. One of Stiles's few real visions: Gerard intends to kill her once she turns twenty-five. Time is running out for both of them with Gerard becoming violent and erratic, suspicious of their actions and the people around him.

I Walked with You Once Upon a Dream by afullrevolution

Stiles has already seen his future and is confused about his past (it's all a bit like dreaming). Scott is just trying to help and Derek doesn't know what is going on, but is more than willing to go with it.

Fate and Other Clichéd Terms by day

He doesn't know what he's expecting, really. An old hippie lady in a turban wearing too many rings that smells like herbs and old cheese, maybe. He's not expecting a boy with pouted pink lips, a dotting of moles, and a captivating scent. “Uh, I need your hand.” Stiles wiggles his fingers. “As handsome as you are, I can't do the reading by just looking at your face.” Laura chokes on a laugh and Derek glares. “You're the psychic? Aren't you a little young?” “I'm 24.” Stiles frowns and Derek is genuinely shocked. “If you like, I can go steal a turban from the old lady in the tent across from me. Maybe throw on some dangling necklaces and not shower for a few days. News flash, none of that makes the reading any more authentic.” or the one where stiles is a seer and he reads derek's future and drama and stuff happen

Your Face is Like a Melody (It Won't Leave My Head) by samshhh

Originally for a prompt on the kink meme: "Since age three, Stiles has been dreaming of Derek. When he was younger, he would always babble about Derek and draw pictures of them together, etc. but everyone just assumed that Derek was his imaginary friend. Stiles himself didn't realize that Derek was a real person until he heard about the Hale fire but by that time, Derek and Laura had moved to New York. " But it somehow mutated into a 8400 word behemoth featuring actual psychic Stiles Stilinski, soul bonding and wolfy mates.

As Cryptic as the Moon by Formaldehyde_Eyes

“So,” Stiles started, everything about him unsure with how to explain it. “I sometimes have these dreams. About wolves.”

Even Through All This, I See You by veritas_st

The Hale family have lived in Beacon Hills for generations, they’ve always been here, they always looked after the town. They’ve always had a…seer if you will. A person with special gifts to look out for them, a human who would see when things were heading in the wrong direction.

Reigniting by Gia279

"Humans don’t come to you for their real futures. They just want to hear that things are going to be alright, or get better for them.” Allison walked around the table and sat across from him. She frowned. “We don’t have to do this if you don’t want to,” she said cautiously. “There are other-” “No way.” He crossed his arms. “If they won’t have both of us, then they don’t get me.” He cracked a grin. “They only get the awesome spark if they get his sister, too.” Allison rolled her eyes. “We’re not actually-” Stiles grabbed her hand, lining up the matching scars on their palms they’d made when they were twelve. “We are, too. The bond of the blood pact is not easily broken,” he said solemnly. “Where I go, you go.”

tell me no lies (and i'll try to forgive) by KatsatheGraceling

Laura laughed, a bright and happy sound. “Derek, look,” she pointed to a large sign in a shop’s window that proudly proclaimed ‘Psychic Readings’. The siblings were walking around a small town just on the outskirts of New York, relaxing and trying to enjoy the day. “We should get our fortunes told,” Laura said. Derek huffed. “And let them scam us? No way.” Laura pouted at him playfully, but they continued walking around the shops downtown. It was only two years later that Laura was taken from him, too. Derek always wondered what the fortune teller would have said to them, if it would have made the least bit of difference. If she would still be alive. He supposed that curiosity is what made him walk into “Claudia’s Clairvoyance and Medium Readings” years later.

Burning House by witchgrassi

For as long as he can remember, Stiles Stilinski has dreamt of the house in the woods.

Escape Route by PencilTrash

Stiles is a Seer and keeps predicting stuff about everyone’s life. Derek is terrified of him, his power and the circular black tattoo on Stiles’ left shoulder.

I am not okay 🥱💤

I saw a Rodeo Clown laying EGGS TODAY???

Was nobody going to tell me some clown breeds lay eggs??? Are they birds or mammals like platypusses???

[afewtoomanyspirits]

neither, they’re a hybrid evolution of hobo clowns, and rattlesnakes. the latter being what gives them their southern twang and egg laying capabilities.

do not ask me how the first hobo clown and rattlesnake copulated, or how the rodeo clown came to be from that- it’s a long horrific story involving many an experimental (and definitely illegal) LSD trial, but that was back during the 1900’s.
