Under the cut, the ornaments represent the following Sterek moments:
š§teardrop: Derek has to chose who he believes- his girlfriend Jennifer Blake or Stiles, who is telling him Jennifer is the one who kidnapped Stilesā dad. Derek seems to waver, but when Stiles lets that sad lil tear roll down his cute lil face Derek is suddenly all āwhere is his dadā and thus discovers that Jennifer is the evil magical Darach, and Derek has been coerced into a relationship with a mass murderer for the second time god good almighty Derek why is your picker so broken
FBI badge: Derek and Stiles tell very different versions of how they escaped the FBI raid- Stiles says he braced an injured Derek and helped him limp to safety while looking heroic. Derek says he carried Stiles bridal style out with an injured toe. Who is to say where the truth really lies? All we know is Stiles found out Derek was the target (and when he saw Derekās sexy shirtless body on the ctv footage he was so overcome he spewed his entire mouthful of water on the girl in front of him) and he certainly put his FBI career on the line to save Derek after that. The rest is just details and itās fun to watch them bicker.
āļøAnchor: When Derek is dreaming while in a magically induced coma, he starts to figure out that reality doesnāt make sense and something is wrong and immediately seeks out dream-Stiles to discuss his concerns. The version of Stiles his subconscious creates for him listens to him and helps him to wake up. Some fans think this indicates that Stiles has become Derekās anchor by this point.
Triskelion - I love when Derek shares the triskelion medallion with Liam and tells him itās a powerful heirloom and Stiles is looking at him like wtf and Derek gives him the death eyebrows until Stiles backs him up. Peak nonverbal communication and coparenting energy.
TV Guide logo - infamous TV Guide interview where Dylan OāBrien and Tyler Hoechlin snuggled each other all over a boat from stem to stern. Possibly mentioned in the dictionary under the definition of Queerbait.
My Cousin Miguel shirt - āStiles. This. No fit.ā
Adidas logo - Stiles wore his red Adidas track suit when he jumped into the pool, dragged Derek to the surface and held 200 pounds of wet, angry, frightened dead weight werewolf for 2 hours in āEIGHT FEET OF WATERā as Derek made so clear. Derek wasnāt super nice about it at the moment. He assumed Stiles would either let him die or was only helping him out of necessity which offended Stiles. I think he got it when they had their little āabominationā chat afterwards.
Silver Bullet - Stiles talked a big game about leaving Derekās little werewolf booty to die in the street when the wolfsbane poison started to spread from his arm, but instead we saw he was literally willing to cut off Derekās arm to save his life, as terrified and grossed out as he was by the idea. Thank goodness Scott showed up on time, that coulda been traumatizing.
š¦Kanima - love a good forced proximity snuggle thanks to the paralyzing effects of the kanima venom. Derek may demand that someone get Stiles off of him, but Matt thinks they āmake a pretty good pair!ā And so do I.
š King chess piece - when stiles is possessed by the nogitsune he leaves a chessboard as a clue with the pieces representing his pack. He labels Derek as the king. Why would you do that Stiles? Why wouldnāt you make Scott the king? Why? Oh wait we know why.
Bonus
- the private property sign for their first meeting when Derek basically yelled at Stiles to get off his lawn like a grumpy old man. Awww, adorable.
-a frolicking wolf and fox as many fics represent stiles with a fox
-red string of fate to represent soulmate fics
This was so fun to be included in, thanks to the mods for their significant patience with me!
hello lovely!
happy new year!!! just had to stop by to tell you how gorgeous your sterek art is :)) i wish you a wonderful 2025!!
Happy new year to you also! How kind of you to say! I need to put together a post of the winter one with zoomed in images and a key explaining all the ornaments! I'll try to do it this week!
Unlike Harry, I will not wax poetic. Fuck Dracoās hair. Why is it so light. Itās not fuckin blonde but itās not quite white and it is absolutely not grey. But if you make it too saturated it clashes with his skin tone, smh
what happened to your comic FF "Harry Potter and the Beast" at AO3? I wanted to link it on @hprecfest but there are no pictures. Did you have to take it down? I hope it's all ok!

Thanks for asking! Discord stopped hosting images is what happened š„² thatās where I had them all linked to AO3. Fortunately I do have the images saved but I donāt know who hosts them anymore. Any suggestions welcome, I assume all my art is gone from AO3 including accidental magic about rose and Hugo.
Teen wolf fans, Arden Cho is in this amazing musical on Broadway I was so lucky to get to see! Anyone who is able to get to New York please get tickets and check it out. I've never seen anything quite like it.
Redraw this any way you like ā you can change poses, costumes, colors, details, or stay perfectly true to the original, just have fun! Thereās no deadline and no pressure. Please use #gingerhaoledtiys on any social media so I donāt miss it!
Back in the day, before we found out JK Rowling was a racist terf psycho, I used to be a HP fan and made some fanart. Now it makes me feel weird seeing that art out there or when itās reblogged.
Please donāt support that woman nor her work. Unlike the old bad guy authors who have already passed, she still gets monetary gains from people who buy or support her work.
āHe sits with the fox in his lap one night, looking at the stars while the fox snores hot little exhales against his knee. What is his life, that he can be both half a man, traipsing in the forest with his animal friend, not a care but where his next meal is coming from, but also a man who is waiting for city hall to send a letter to his PO box approving the start of construction?ā
āā From A Simple Life, by Survivah on AO3
This isnāt a story where Stiles turns into a fox, itās a story where thereās a fox, and it turns into a Stiles.
I love hermit Derek and his Disney princess woodland creature sidekick. This fic is a warm mug of cider to me.
Fall is in the air which means I must be rereading A Simple Life ā¦ and that picture of Tyler Hoechlin with the dog on his shoulders popped in my head and I figured I could make it into a Fox!Stiles so Iām workin on this for you guys!
Hiiii friend! I heard youāre taking sterek art prompts š Not sure if you still are, but if, Iād love to see a kiss where Derekās arms are wrapped around Stilesā back, pulling him up and against his chest so that only Stilesā tippytoes are touching the floor :ā)
Ok so it went from kiss to hug and next thing I knew it was morphing into Down by Contact fanart. If you havenāt read it I hope you enjoy anyway just imagine football AU š«£
For @nerdherderette who wanted jock stiles and nerd Derek, hopefully I get around to drawing the nerd Derek part later for now youāll just have to use your imagination š¤
For @nerdherderette who asked for red hoodie stiles and wolf Derek, always gets me thinking of a Love and Monsters AU with Joel and Boy. How about something like this massive wolf keeps sort of hanging around Stiles, and heās a bit freaked out but it doesnāt attack him or anything, until heās in peril and then it tackles him right down and keeps him hidden from danger!
