Just a heads up, there are bots going around on AO3 accusing people of using AI. Considering the timing, this is likely AI bros' retaliation for AO3 users calling them out for scraping their work. Examples of what you might be sent:
Screenshots from here.
If you get a comment like this, just report for spam and delete.
Also, don't put your fic through an "AI detector". A lot of those are just cover for techbros to say you gave them your work freely to put into their AI databases. Do not feed the machines.
Nicole Reads A Lot of Fanfiction (and she's gonna share it with you): Week 8
Weeks [1] [2] [3] [4/5/6] [7]
Hello this weeks fic reading brought to you by the fact that I haven't "worked" since 2/18. Anyway.. if you notice a sudden trend in the Sterek fics I'm not sure what to say. I tripped into the "Firefighter Derek Hale" tag and haven't seen the light of day since oops.
Buddie: 14 Sterek: 15
that timelines chat by disasterbuck, Veronae | @disasterbuck | @veronae-buddie (2025ā¢Tā¢32.6K)
On a seemingly ordinary night in 2022, Buck receives a text from what he assumes is a wrong number and goes along with it for lack of anything better to do. But it quickly becomes evident that nothing about this night is ordinary, as he finds himself texting an Eddie Diaz five years in the past, before he's moved to LA and joined the 118.
What happens during the next twenty-four hours will change Buck's and Eddie's lives forever.
Eddie: like I said, I just wanted to update my phone
Eddie: maybe I did something to it š
Buck: of course YOU would try to update your phone and end up texting the future š¤£
Eddie: hey!
Buck: technology really doesnāt like you, does it?
Buck: š
Was I even on your way? by rangerdanger (mxgicxltrxgedy) | @call-me-medusa (2025ā¢Mā¢3K)
A soft knock starts on the door.
āBuck?ā Itās Eddie. Of course itās Eddie. āAre you feeling okay?ā
Buck feels like heās going to throw up. āNo."
āCan I come in?ā
Buck closes his eyes. He tries to take another deep breath, trying to remind himself heās in Eddieās bathroom, in Eddieās house, probably the safest place heās ever been in L.A, and that heās not in an office trying to talk about a kidās death.
He scoots closer to the toilet, resting his back on the edge of the tub, āYeah.ā
-
Or, Buck gets reminded of something that happened he'd rather forget.
come ride on me (i mean camaraderie) by heygirltimeformorning | @heygirltimeformorning (2025ā¢Eā¢4.5K)
āEddie, this isnāt -- casual for me,ā Buck says finally, like heās cutting the wires to a bomb. āI canāt -- I donāt do casual anymore.ā He looks up at Eddie, open and bleeding, totally disarmed. Heās the most beautiful thing Eddieās ever seen. Buck takes a breath, looks down, shakes his head. āI mean,ā he says, āI canāt do casual with you.ā
āWho,ā Eddie asks, very quietly, āsaid anything about casual?ā
Cheeseburger in Paradise by Bookworm0303 | @insertlovelyperson (2025ā¢Eā¢20.2K)
āSwingers,ā Buck gasped, eyes wide and mouth agape, āEddie, theyāre swingers.ā
Immediately, Eddie blanked, fork clattering against his dish as he ran through every possible way he could try to deny it. More or less recovered, he eventually shook his head and laughed, āWhat? No. No, theyāre not.ā
āYes,ā the other gritted out, frantically gesturing back at the two couples at the bar, āthey are.ā
Turning in his seat, Eddie watched as the pair of husbands quite literally swapped wives, getting rather cozy with their new partner for the evening. And... ok, damn. Sure. Clearing his throat as he turned back around, he was willing to make a partial concession, āOk. Fine. Maybe those four are, butāā
Thatās when Buck got to pointing: āAnd them. And them. And definitely them.ā Each assessment more damning than the last.

or Eddie plans a vacation for the first (and likely last) time in his life.
Second date update by kyote_ugly | @kyoteugly (2025ā¢Tā¢1.9K)
The story takes place between the 1st and 2nd seasons, different first meeting.
Buck's friends convince him to go on a blind date to get over Abby, and Eddie, well, Eddie is training to be a firefighter - he's divorced, new in town, and of course his friend from the academy wants to help him navigate the LA dating scene.
And you, my dear reader, you're sitting in traffic on your way to work, listening to the radio...
The Blondie Theory by facewithoutheart | @facewithoutheart (2025ā¢Tā¢5.7K)
Grace hates running into people from high school. But she always kind of wondered about Eddie Diaz. So when Eddie moves back to El Paso, Grace finally gets a chance to prove a theory, make a new friend, meet her long distance girlfriend, and end a ship war.
AKA 5 times Grace Matthews runs into her former classmate, Eddie Diaz, and 1 time she runs into one of those two nurses, Evan Buckley.
do you believe in magic? by Tizniz | @tizniz (2025ā¢GAā¢5.6K)
Buckās magic has been infatuated with Eddie since the moment Buck laid eyes on the man.
It didnāt matter that Buck himself had less than pleasant feelings towards Eddie, his magic decided that Eddie was the love of its life and it was going to do anything it could to be near him. This went against Buckās own feelings because of the whole not liking Eddie for exactly two days and also because Buck has always been told to keep his magic a secret.
reeling with the feeling by dykeries | @buddiesbian (2025ā¢Eā¢3.7K)
āWe are not calling 911.ā
Eddie groans into Buckās shoulder. āI donāt want to either. But I think we have to.ā
Buck shakes his head and then regrets it. Heās like, eighty percent sure thereās a bleeding cut on the back of his head and heās gotten blood on the shower tile. āWeāll figure something else out.ā
āLike what?ā Eddie tries to shift his weight off Buck again and immediately flops back down. āUgh.ā
āI donāt know. Dying here. We had a pretty good run.ā
āTheyāll put it on our tombstone,ā Eddie says mournfully. āHere lie Buck and Eddie: too old for shower sex.ā
āAw, babe,ā Buck says, oddly touched. āYouād want a joint tombstone?ā
No one can ever know about this. Except for Hen.
Eddie and the bee-tee-dubs by telldebatz | @singitforthegirls (2025ā¢GAā¢1.6K)
Eddie didn't expect this once he got back from Texas with Chris, but somehow, he's not that surprised either.
Buck acquires a cat in Eddie's absence, which is fine, but it shares Eddie's name, and that might become a problem.
(It's a short, cute fic about Buddie and a cat. Enjoy.)
Inside Keeps Building by Minalover | @minalover (2024ā¢Eā¢34.4K)
"āMy luggage got delayed coming in from Phoenix but it should be in tomorrow.ā
Eddie is, of course, not fine. He hasnāt been fine since he left for El Paso yesterday. He suspects he wasnāt fine long before that, but he was able to keep it beaten back with a stick. Not so much anymore.
āThat sucks.ā
Theyāve been different since Eddie made the decision to move to El Paso a few weeks back. He could have sworn Buck was okay. He was okay in the kitchen that day, when he flipped the iPad over and unearthed Eddieās tender familial burns. He was okay on the couch, the couch Eddie had to leave behind, the couch he mourns for reasons too complicated to think about. He was okay on the virtual call with the real estate agent. He was okay. They were okay.
āYeah, it really does. All of my underwear was in that luggage.ā
They donāt feel okay."
or: Eddie follows Christopher to El Paso
or or: the sexting fic I promised myself
i wanna feel you from the inside by shortndiaz (2025ā¢Eā¢4.2K)
Starts with āwanna go for the title?ā and ends in some blood and sex
Feeding by pickdotter (2025ā¢Eā¢2.4K)
Everything needs sustenance; matter, weaving into movement. Hunger is a passion for life.
Eddie hungers, while Buckās pulse thumps with it, blood.

Vampire!Eddie shows up at Buck's front door.
forever is the sweetest con by becausebuckley | @becausebuckley (2025ā¢Eā¢37.9K)
āBuck,ā Eddie says, a small smile curving at the edge of his mouth, āwanna get married? For our honeymoon, weāll scam your parents out of some money and make Raviās accountant do our taxes.ā
āWell,ā Buck says drily, āthat sounds like an offer I canāt refuse.ā
āIām sorry,ā Eddie says, in his very best ā meaning very bad ā impression of Buck when he gets his hands on a clipboard. āWhat was that?ā
āYes, Eddie,ā Buck says, putting on an air of suffering despite the butterflies making themselves at home in his stomach. Man, whoever Eddie ends up proposing to for realsies is gonna be so lucky. āIāll marry you.ā
or: buck is invited to a family reunion and realises that there's a good chunk of money waiting for him. thereās one issue, though: he has to be married to claim it, and right now, heās painfully single. itās a good thing he has such a great best friend in eddie, right?
H-E-A-T-A/B/O: A Buddie Anthology by Bucksbelly (drarryweasley) | @bucksbelly [WIP] (2025ā¢Eā¢41.2K)
An anthology of Buddie one-shots based in omegaverse settings. These stories are NOT connected; they each have slightly different lore and can be read in any order!Brought to you by I wanted to write my favorite trope but couldn't decide how to do it so I wrote a bunch of them
I don't want the world, but I'll take this city (2025ā¢Eā¢9.5K)
"Let. Him. Go." Eddie demands, deathly still so he doesn't pounce.
"Why? Because he smells like yours?" The second prisoner taunts. "I bet you haven't even told him yet."
"Told me what?" Buck snaps, slightly breathless. At least he's not choking.
"Come on, Dom, stop fucking around," Mitchell agrees, rolling his eyes at the display. "We're on the clock, here."
But Dom hasn't taken his gaze off of Eddie, and vice versa. His smirk grows. "You'll thank me for this one day," he says, and before anyone can move, he sinks his teeth into Buck's neck.
Thank You by JoMouse | @josjournal (2019ā¢Tā¢12.3K)
Stiles is a firefighter with BHFD Ladder 30. He hates the new guy...until he doesn't.
For Sterek Week 2019 Scene Stealers - basically Sterek as Buddie from 9-1-1.
Anchoring by rororowyourboat | @rosieposiepuddingnpie (2025ā¢Tā¢3.1K)
Stiles is Derek's anchor, but Derek deserves so much more than one person as an anchor. Stiles decides to help Derek find joy in life again.
Champagne Problems by fairytalesandfolklore | @fairytales-and-folklore (2021ā¢Tā¢1.7K)
Stiles has got champagne problems. No, really. He's had way too many mimosas. A game of tipsy truth or dare at a New Year's Eve pack party ends with Stiles accidentally blurting out that he's in love with Derekā¦right in front of the sourwolf himself.
"Alright, fine," Erica simpers. "I dare you to tell us who you've got a crush on."
"Because we all know there's someone," Lydia insists, giving him a pointed look.
"Someone you've clearly been pining after for years now," Danny agrees. "So just come clean, Stilinski. Tell us who it is."
Stiles, who is absolutely smashed off his ass at this point in the game, rolls his eyes so hard he sees stars.
"Nice try, assholes," he teases with a sing-song lilt and a self-satisfied smile. "But there's no way in hell I'm ever gonna tell you I'm in love with Derek, so you can justā"
Somewhere in the distance, a champagne flute shatters, and suddenly, Derek is just there, looming in the distance, eyebrows arched so high they practically straddle his hairline.
nonchalant about your own mortality by honestlydarkprincess | @honestlydarkprincess (2025ā¢Tā¢1.1K)
Derek gets hurt after sacrificing himself for the pack yet again and Stiles is angry about it.
He's Not Mine by Sunnee (2013ā¢Eā¢68.5K)
Derek comes home to find an abandoned werebaby on his front porch and Stiles volunteers to help him out. Surprisingly, that is just the beginning of his problems.
Stuck on Repeat by pyrrhical (anoyo) | @approximatelytrue (2017ā¢Mā¢77.2K)
Twelve years after leaving Beacon Hills, and everything it represented, Stiles is a well-respected analyst at the CIA. Unfortunately, life likes its irony, and Stiles finds his pretty fabulous CIA career turned on its side when an asset-turned-mark turns out to be a little less than human.
can't be trusted to treasure your heart like i do by honestlydarkprincess | @honestlydarkprincess (2025ā¢Tā¢1.3K)
Derek chases after Stiles and they make up.
Safe by Hedwig221b | @hedwig221b (2023ā¢NRā¢976)
āWhere is he?ā Stiles rumbled, glancing at each member of the pack in front of him, before settling his incinerating gaze on one person he once considered a brother. āTell me, Scott, where is my husband?ā
The Faded Line by GrimReaperlover11 (2022ā¢Tā¢31K)
Stiles sometimes hated being an omega, always being treated like the low man on the totem pole.
His ideology is only proven to be correct one night on his way home from a night out with Scott when an alpha tries to take advantage of him. however before he can be defiled, he finds a savior in another alpha, one that has his omega howling with want. when his hero takes him home and cares for him, Stiles doesn't want him to leave.
Maybe he won't.
The Outstation by CabbageOriley (2020ā¢GAā¢23K)
Stiles is the newest hire at the Beacon Hills Fire Department. What will happen when he gets stationed at the outstation referred to as the Hale Hole? He's going to die, that's what. He's going to die and⦠fall in love?
this loving could save me by hot_damn_louis | @bisexualagenda (2020ā¢NRā¢16.9K)
āSomeone put shaving cream in my helmet again,ā Derek growled, his arms tense.
āAnd who could that be?ā Stiles asked, feigning innocence. He elbowed Derek playfully as he half jogged over to the rig, hopping into the passenger seat.
aka
Stiles and Derek have been working in the same firehouse for a while, and they might be a little more obvious about their feelings than they think.
Emergency Love by Kedreeva | @kedreeva (2012ā¢Eā¢13.5K)
Wherein Derek is a firefighter and Stiles is a paramedic, and they just keep meeting.
stop, drop, and roll by thepsychicclam | @thepsychicclam (2014ā¢Mā¢12.2K)
Stiles knows he's in trouble when he invites the Beacon Hills Fire Department into his third grade classroom and he can't stop staring at a certain scruffy fireman. But after the third graders take a field trip to the fire station and participate in the fire department's holiday canned food drive, Stiles can't ignore his crush any longer.
a glimpse of you and me by Winchesterek | @sterekbros (2023ā¢Eā¢12.1K)
āYou write about soulmates?ā Derek asked, sounding curious as he leaned in. āI didn't know there was a market for childrenās books about that.ā
āYeah, itās starting to pick up traction the last few years. I know there weren't many books like this when I was a kid, but maybe things wouldāve been different if there had been.ā Stiles shrugged. Then he paused, wetting his lips as he tried to control his breathing. āDoā¦you believe in soulmates?ā
A drag queen and a cop walk into an apartment building... by DropsOfAddiction (2020ā¢Eā¢16.4K)
Stiles tries not to whimper as Derek gets closer. Stiles had forgotten just how intense space invader Derek could be.
If Derek was boner inducing when Stiles knew him before, equal parts terrifying and sexy, back at the age of twenty four, well... itās not a patch on what thirty year old Derekās got going for him.
Derekās still got a stupid leather jacket and his black hair is slightly longer than Stiles remembers. The stubble is longer too, not quite a beard but still neatly shaped in a way that makes his cheekbones stand out.
And the eyes, shit, the eyes. Heās staring at Stiles with this stormy mix of grey, blue and about a thousand other colours thrown in and Stiles couldnāt break eye contact if he wanted to.
Derek fucking Hale, ladies and gentlemen.
Repeat after me: ITāS NOT A FUCKING REUNION, ITāS A FUNERAL!
Stop analyzing outfits, stop making lists of ācelebrities guestsā, stop analyzing who was suffering more and stop saying that āLiam got the boys reunited like he wantedā. Itās his funeral. He died and people keep disrespecting him and his family!
Family and friends were saying goodbye to a person and you all keep bringing back weird fantasies and making jokes. You bullied this man for 14 years and you keep disrespecting him. JUST STOP!
Honoring Liam Payne: A memorial across time and space
As we continue to process the heartbreaking news of Liamās passing, Iāve created this tumblr as a space where we can come together and remember him.
Several of you, including some anons, suggested the idea of holding an online memorial, especially for those who canāt attend the services being held in various cities. I believe this is a beautiful way to honor him and support one another.
Iāll be posting more details on Monday, as itās quite late now and Iāll be travelling tomorrow to attend one of the memorials. But I wanted to get this blog up and running to share a date and a way for us to contribute.
Weāll be holding the online memorial on October 29th. The time doesnāt matter ā just join in whenever itās October 29th where you are, so everyone can participate in their own time.
What can you share?
You can contribute in any way that feels right for you āwhether itās edits, fan art, poems, a personal note or letter, song lyrics, gif sets, your favorite photos of him, special moments, stories⦠Just tag me and Iāll make sure to reblog it.
Please, take care and be gentle with yourselves during this time. Iām sending love and strength to all of you š
Three things cannot long be hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.
This year we are trying something new with Sterek Week which is a week long, over arching, theme! The week long theme will be the Sun and the Moon.
What does the week long theme mean for you? More options! Each day you will have two related, but opposite themes that you can either choose from or combine into one work.
See below for each days themes with a handful of examples to show the difference!
Day 1 - October 25th: Open Secrets (Sun) / Hidden Truths (Moon) - Everyone knows they're a thing (but they're oblivious) vs they're dating but nobody knows. Also known supernatural world that no one really talks about vs hidden supernatural world.
Day 2 - October 26th: Domestic Bliss (Sun) / Love is Murder (Moon) - Domestic Bliss is about family, slice-of-life and established relationship vibes, while Love is Murder is dark, murder husbands, or crime-related.
Day 3 - October 27th: Applied Science (Sun) / Forbidden Magic (Moon) - This one is for those who would like to get creative with an AU in a sci-fi or fantasy setting.
Day 4 - October 28th: Canon Compliance (Sun) / What-if AU (Moon) - The first fills in the canon blanks, while the second takes canon in a new direction.
Day 5 - October 29th: Fluff and Firsts (Sun) / Dark Desires (Moon) - Fluff and Firsts is the wholesome theme... can be anything that brings the good vibes really. Dark Desires can be kink, dark, sexual, or evil in nature.
Day 6 - October 30th: Dealer's Choice (Sun) / Tarot Cards (Moon) - Dealer's Choice can be the wild card theme where you can choose anything or maybe write about them playing strip poker or going to Vegas. Tarot Cards - basically pick a tarot card and run with it.

Teen Wolf AU Fest is an open collection prompt fest that will take place over five weeks, starting in the first week of May.
This fest will be similar to fests like Flufftober or Kinktober in that anyone can participate as little or as much as they want. Instead of daily prompts, however, there will be two weekly prompts to choose from. For 2024, these prompts will be beings and places. We're also introducing bonus prompts for genre.
FAQ
This is a low-key, participate as-you-wish fest. You can create something for all five weeks or just for one.
The prompts will be posted weekly through the Tumblr fest blog (@twaufest). At least one of the weekly prompts should be incorporated in the work.
There will be two prompts per week. You can use one or both of them. There will also be a bonus genre prompt, if you wish to also include that.
You can create one work using just one of the weekly prompts, or create one work with both prompts, or create two works using one prompts for each work.
All ships are welcome (or lack thereof).
All types of transformative fanworks are welcome.
Your work can be shared in the AO3 collection (twaufest24) and/or on Tumblr by tagging @twaufest.
Rules
AU works only. Since this is an AU fest, all works must be AUs. They can be human-AUs, supernatural AUs, or any other type of AU. But they cannot be fully canon or just canon divergent.
Tag your works. Fics must be tagged appropriately. Please tag for major content warnings and other common warnings/triggers.
At least one of the weekly prompts must be used in your work for that week.
Late submissions are accepted while the fest is ongoing. The collection will close a week or two after the fest is over for the year. If I run this fest again next year, Iāll reopen the collection at that time.
If you are participating as a reader, please practice good fandom etiquette. If you donāt like a work or a particular ship, donāt read it or use the back button. All TW ships and all types of transformative fandom works are welcome.
2024 Teen Wolf AU Prompts
For 2024, the prompts will be beings/places. There will also be a bonus genre each week, if you should so choose to use it.
Ā A peaceful town in California turns into a bloodbath when a masked killer begins to haunt Beacon Hills. Lydia Martin, a young teenage girl, whose mother was killed a year before, becomes the target of the masked killer. Her boyfriend Stiles Stilinski becomes the main suspect. Local Tabloid News Reporter Allison Argent and Beacon Hillsā Deputy Scott McCall investigate and try to figure out who the killer is and if itās the same person who killed Lydiaās mom the year before!
People saying they will watch 911 when more gay stuff happens when there's been Hen and Karen since day one and there was Michael and David... And there's Josh. And all the queer characters calling 911 through the seasons. And now Buck and Tommy... Isn't that enough for y'all?? š
