here is the deepest secret nobody knows by owlpostagain

“Derek,” Stiles groans. “You have me. You’ve always had me, you absolute moron, how many physically impossible feats of life-saving heroics do I have to perform before you get it?”

Okay so this is not the first fic of owlpostagain (love the pun!) that I have read and in both fics the characters are a little OC (again I have not watched Teen Wolf yet). I think that they just see Stiles differently then I do and it makes him feel like an OC. The idea and plot are great though. I love pack mom Stiles and that made up for him being a bit OC in my opinion.

Don't Worry Baby by kalpurna

"You know you're allowed to ask for vanilla sex, right?" he says, afterwards. "We can do whatever you want. That's kind of the point."

Derek doesn't respond.

Okay this fic is good, but there is one scene that I just can't handle. Stiles gets really mean and it borders on rape feelings that I did not enjoy. Other than that scene though it was really good and I love the idea of the plot.

Every Step You Take by Nokomis

Stiles accidentally ends up magically bound to Derek. It’s super.

This was a nice story and I gave it a rating of 4 out of 5, but I can't remember what made it not a perfect story. I think it is because there was nothing spectacular about the story. It was good and I would read it again, but it didn't give me the emotions that I normally feel from really good fics.

Darling It Is No Joke by thehoyden

The first thing Stiles thinks when he opens the door is that it’s not his birthday, but someone has sent him some kind of cop stripper.

I liked this fic, but there was something about it that just didn't sit well. The story was great and so was the pace, but I think that I am just not used to a well-adjusted Derek.

Skilinski's Home for Wayward Wolves by owlpostagain

“At least your puppies knock first,” Stiles snorts. “Here I thought their alpha raised them to be well-mannered.”

"There’s a sign,” Derek responds stiffly.

Stiles, whose curiosity outweighs even his hardest of grudges, abandons his chilly façade of nonchalance in a heartbeat. He jumps right up and all but pushes Derek out of the way in his effort to get to the window, and sure enough when he leans outside there’s a laminated strip of cardstock duct taped to the vinyl siding:

DON’T FORGET TO KNOCK Stiles gets cranky when we scare him --- Or, in which Stiles Stilinski moves to Beacon Hills for his junior year of high school and accidentally adopts a pack of teenage werewolves.

This fic is unapologetically an alternate universe in that even some of the characters feel like they came from a different show (or at least I assume as I still have not watched Teen Wolf). It is not bad though because it works so well with the story and I can see how the characters would be the way they are portrayed if they grew up a little differently.

Lock All The Doors Behind You by entanglednow

He has no idea what you're supposed to say when you find one of your...werewolf acquaintances, completely out of their mind, growling like they're about to see what your insides taste like. There's no handbook for this. Stiles is thinking that if he survives he might write one.

I love when Derek is feral and shows his true feelings for Stiles! The only problem that I had with this fic is that I wish there was more because the ending doesn't feel finished. Maybe the author left it open to write a sequel but hasn't yet. Otherwise, this is a perfect fic with all of the feelings!

Oh Captain, My Captain by karasunovolleygays

“Iwa-chan?” “What now?” “Have you ever, you know, stuck up for me when I wasn’t around?” “Don’t be a dumbass.”

Second years Oikawa Tooru and Iwaizumi Hajime sit outside of the coach’s office, waiting to be called in one by one. The fact that they are separated makes Hajime uneasy. What has to be said that can’t be said in front of both of them?

I just love how Iwaizumi defends Oikawa and how real this situation could have been! Just a great fic!

I reread this fic recently and I just love this fic idea! I need more Iwaizumi defending Oikawa behind his back. Just Iwazumi being a kind and protective boyfriend!

The Best Years of Our Lives, My Ass by ireallyhatecornnuts (CharleyFoxtrot)

AU after Season 8, episode 6, "Southern Comfort." Dean goes to sleep in a motel room in Texarkana, and he wakes up 17 years old, in his childhood bedroom in Lawrence, Kansas, 1996. He has no idea how he got there, why his parents are still alive, why his brother is an adorable freshman with no memory of his adult life, and why the only ally he has in this place is the angel he left behind in Purgatory – somehow also 17 years old. They have to get out, that's the important thing. Only, falling in love with his angel wasn't a part of the plan....

I absolutely love this fic and have read it many times! It does a great job of staying accurate to the characters as well as fixing parts of the show (i.e. Dean's childhood). It even made me like John as a character which is very hard to do. It is worth how long it is and is just such a beautiful story.

Your Call Cannot Be Completed As Dialed by eBob, K_K_TiBal

AU in which Castiel accidentally sends a text message to the wrong number and befriends the person at the other end of the line. However, accidents don’t just happen accidentally, and sometimes two completely different people are exactly what the other needs.

Dean and Cas are very OC in this fic. One of the biggest issues that I have is that Dean would never have let Sam live with their Dad alone, yet this fic has that happen. I think that because the majority of the fic is in text message format we miss a lot of the world-building that helps to make the situations and characters realistic. I gave it a 3.5 out of 5, one of the lowest rating that I have ever given. Definitely an interesting concept and if you like text message fics then you will like this one.

The Care and Feeding of Castiel by MalMuses

Dean’s quiet time in the bunker is interrupted by some stranger-than-usual behavior from his angel. Oh, and feathers...there are a lot of those, too.

I usually like fics that have Cas molting, but this one just wasn't as good as others. I think it is because the characters don't feel accurate to the show, but I have defiantly read better wing fics. Not a bad fic though, just not the best.

Billet Doux by imogenbynight

Castiel and Dean arrive back in the US, and Sam learns a thing or two.

This is the second part to Apres and I am so happy that the author made it. It ties up the feelings Dean has with Sam and shows us Cas and Dean on the plane back!

Apres by imogenbynight

When the angels stop falling and Castiel makes his way out of the trees, he finds himself alone and oceans away from the Winchesters. For once, Dean flies to him.

Oh my goodness! I absolutely love this fic!!!!! It has all the things that I am just a sucker for! Caring Dean, funny Cas, with Cannon, getting together, and more. I have read this fic a few times and it gets better each time!

There's Only One Sure Thing That I Know by blinkiesays

Dean doesn't even get halfway through explaining before Bobby starts laughing. When he lets himself think about it for more than five seconds, Dean can almost see Bobby's point: he's faced down demons, witches, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, angels, and Satan himself and now he's been defeated by the God damn Midwest.

Okay, I had so many feelings about this fic! I loved the way that Cas was written and am so happy with the way it ended. It was a bit slow at times and Dean would forget about being stuck which I don't know is true with his character. Also, there were some hard things with this fic that made me a little sad. Overall it was good and I highly recommend it!

Dean Winchester's Secret (Angel) Boyfriend by reluctantabandon, Winter_of_our_Discontent

Dean Winchester isn't exactly a team player. So when he starts mentioning a new Hunting partner, Ellen and Jo Harvelle aren't sure whether they should be worried or relieved. But they're starting to get the feeling there's something important Dean's not telling them about Cas...

I really feel like this story stayed true to the characters and I enjoyed the plot line. The part that I didn't enjoy as much is the misunderstanding portion. I am not as interested in those kinds of fics because I am too impatient for the couple to get together. The fic itself is great though and if you like Destiel you should definitely read it!

Inhuman by Annie D (scaramouche)

Dean has learned that sex is different when there's an angel involved.

This is nothing but the sex scene between Dean and Cas. I enjoyed the story and idea of the fic, but I felt like the characters were not true to the show in the way that they behaved. I gave it a 4 out of 5 which is not my lowest rated fic but I wish the characters were written a bit more accurate to the show.

Grooming Instincts by jemariel

There's something going on with Cas. Dean is determined to help him through it, in whatever way he can. He might end up with more than he bargained for. OR: Dean helps Cas scratch an itch. As it were.

I really enjoyed this fic as Dean helps Cas with grooming his wings. This is one of the tropes for supernatural that I really enjoy and I just love it when the boys are taking care of one another!

Be Careful What You Think Of by thirtyspells (weatherveyn)

In which Sam is inadvertently a cocktease and the "The Most Sexually Frustrated Angel in the Garrison" award goes to Gabriel.

I have read this one a couple of times and it is really good. Short and sweet without much deep detail into the sex scenes. Sambriel fics are always hit or miss with me. It is not my main OTP for supernatural and normally I don't care who Sam ends up with as long as he has someone.
