I hope you are doing well! Just checking on you and hoping you will be back soon!ā„ļø
Omg hi! Yes, Iāve occasionally been popping back in to mostly lurk hehe, life has gotten too busy for me to sit down and give this the time I want to give it :/ so I settle for this.
Thanks for checking up on me! Iām doing ok, donāt worry about me. Iāll be back as soon as Iām done with edits for chapter 18 of my rewrite the lines fic hehe so hopefully soon.
we are not comparing the gay equivalent of u-haul lesbians to whatever fucked up situationship clex has going on. call me when kip makes a test tube baby from his and scottās dna and then we can talk
In hushed tones all across the North American Werewolves Conference: Stiles Stilinski, the famous spark who not only survived the Nogitsuneās possession, but helped trap it, is there as someoneās date. Some alpha from California or something.
technically this is a three-part band au fic. one's a sterek enemies(eehhh) to friends to lovers fake dating situation called 'the halogen conundrum'. another is an allydia infidelity friends with benefits unrequited(?) love situation called 'amaretto cherry'. the third is a thiam enemies to lovers thing called 'the rake problem' which happens in the background of (and is the reason for) the sterek storyline. CRAZY times.
i think abt this au so much all the time always - i've written songs for it, i've made playlists upon playlists, i've made albums, i've made the beefiest pinterest board, i am all consumed. so i must post a snippet for my own wellbeing.
āābut how could this be fine? How did he get us that show, huh?ā He said, āEveryone hates his entire family! Are you even listening to me?ā
Liam just kept nodding his head.
āWhat are you evenāā Stiles squinted his eyes, reaching over to yank the headphones out of his ears and pull them back to put them in his own, āWhat are you even listening to?ā
He stopped, frozen as the Alvin and The Chipmunks version of You Spin Me Round blasted in his ears. Liam just stared. Stiles stared back.
āWhy?āĀ
Liam shrugged his bare shoulders, āItās catchyā¦ā
āYou Spin Me Round, parentheses, Like A Record?ā Stiles chided, āFrom Alvin and The Chipmunks 2: The Squeakquel?ā
Liam crossed his arms over his tank top, āI like the last chorus and it is way too catchy, what is your problem?ā
Stilesā brows rose, āAre you twelve?ā
āAre youā¦ā Liam did something weird with his brows, ā... allergic to joy?ā
āAlright.ā
āI just⦠You never hear me saying that when you go on about your Star Wars stuff.ā
āYeah, thatās because Star Wars is awesome.ā
āStiles,ā Derekās voice growled. Stiles screamed, although he would say otherwise, and flailed back from the door with enough unnecessary lack of coordination to knock the earphones out and send Liamās phone flying across the hall.Ā
Liam took in a calming breath.
āGod, warn a man, would you?ā
and because i genuinely need help. also a tiny snippet from amaretto chery
The tickle of lace still dances on Lydiaās tongue ā two hours, or two years, it doesnāt matter how long itās been. She feels the heat in her chest, the dizziness of it all, every trace of her poetic waxing into notebooks sheāll never bring to the studio. Private; intimate. She lets warm breath linger on her jaw, keeps whispers in the shell of her ear, tangles fingerprints in her sunset strawberry hair. Sheāll lock her teeth around it all and bite ā sheād draw blood, just to keep it.
they are very. very different vibes. bless.
thank u for the ask i luv luv luv u weepy eye emoji
OH MY?? GOD???? and youāve kept this to yourself whyyyyy?? sharing is caring you know??? omg this is amazing i hate you why would you do this to me now iām obsessed with a wip i canāt even read yet
everyone making fun of hollanov for not having the domestic wherewithal that scott hunter does but you have to remember that hunter is five million years old and has probably been looking to settle down since before the new millennium while shane just discovered what being gay is and ilya just discovered the concept of being in a relationship
post canon streamer stiles who randomly drops lore about himself and proceeds to never elaborate. like, he'll be in the middle of a stream and casually go 'this feels exactly like that one time my boyfriend's psycho uncle chased me through my school in the middle of the night' and then completely moves on while the chat explodes. derek, stiles' strong armed moderator, is low key having the worst day of his life
six months later its "this reminds me of that time I beat my bf's uncle at scrabble by defending my use of the word whelmed" and the chat is like "is this the same uncle who kidnapped you???"
"was this before or after the leaving a weird scar on the back of your neck?"
"No. i think this is the uncle he got kidnapped With"
no bc stiles having a fan base that is as detail oriented an as obsessive as he is would truly be the best karma. like wym you all actually listen to what i say instead of shrugging me off like im crazy and then it turns out i was right? wym you have spreadsheets????

hi... so i'm not dead. it's just been a wild few months, but i'm officially done with my semester at uni so that means we're so backkkkk
i have a lot of unanswered messages and stuff and i will reply to it all, i promise! i just had to let you guys know i'm alive first lmao
for those of you waiting for a rewrite the lines update, you'll be happy to know i kept working on chapter 18. it currently sits at 6.8k words, but we still have a bit to go because as we all know self control and me don't really know each other lol
to my moots, except me to pop up in your dms groveling for forgiveness in the next days hehe, ily guys
current word count for chapter 18 of the rewrite the lines au sits at 4.3k, and i think i can officially announce this chapter has gotten away from me because a lot is happening and iām just now finding out about it lol so thatās been fun
anyways thereās a few banger one liners here so thereās that, itās been a very busy couple of weeks which of course means iāve been itching to write, but things are slowing down so i should have more time (key word being should because i do have a couple of assignments to grade shhhhhh donāt worry about it). iāll keep you guys updated
update on chapter 18 of the rewrite the lines au: weāre at around 2.5k words which is⦠not a lot, but itās coming together in between my endless readings for uni hehe
hereās a small sneak pesk for you lovelies:
Heās still not sure how things happened at first. His memories from when he was possessed by the Nogitsune are hazy, as are the ones of what came next. Thatās a period of his life he knows only in vivid nightmares and thoughtless moments where he finds himself speaking japanese and using ancient spells long lost to men.
Itās not something the rest of the pack ever really liked to talk about. That was a hard time for all of them, and Stiles still has a feeling that there are things Void did while in his body that he doesnāt know about, things that had his friends freezing mid motion sometimes when Stiles did certain things. Stiles had caught his dad tracking him with his eyes, a wary look on his face like he wasnāt sure if the one in control of his body was truly his son.
It never hurt any less no matter how many times it happened, but Stiles doesnāt hold it against them. What little he remembers is enough to make him shiver, and the hazy memories of what he doesnāt paint a pretty awful picture.
The only one that never did any of that was Derek. Heād been especially supportive in the aftermath, shielding him from the world while Stiles tried to piece himself back together with the scraps Void left behind. Back then Stiles hadnāt been able to put a pin on the reasons, too busy figuring out how to be a person again. But looking back that had probably been what solidified the bond thatād been growing between them for months, forged in life and death and bloodshed, tested by water and magic. Stiles anchored himself in Derek, using him as a point of focus when everything else in his life was lost in chaos. And Derek, whoād been betrayed and abandoned by everyone else in his life, leaned on Stilesā loyalty, used it to settle his wolf when anger wouldnāt work anymore.
Theyād lived in a weird limbo for a while. The whole pack did. The tentative hierarchy theyād established before the Alpha Pack and Void came along was all but stripped bare, reworked in the wake of all that destruction. After all that, things like petty school rivalries and playground bullying felt inconsequential.
Stiles changed. The pack changed. Derek changed, and maybe thatās what made it all come together. While Stiles tried to sort through his broken memories, Derek managed to glue their makeshift, broken little ragtag pack back together. By the time Stiles was well enough to hold a conversation without getting lost in ancient Japan, the pack had slotted into a working dynamic that almost seemed like it could last.
