Hi guys, welcome to our new weekly segment: Feature Friday. Once a week, we’ll be hyping up one of your favourite authors and recommending five of their fics, some old and some new, so that you can re-read all of your old favourite stories, or maybe even discover a new favourite! If you have someone you’d love to see in this segment, send us an ask here on Tumblr, or message one of our helpful mods on discord.
Our next author @auddieliz09 is an absolute sweetheart who burst onto the writing scene in July 2018 and has since written 21 Thiam fics for our reading pleasure. This author balances hot, steamy smut with tooth-rotting fluff, but either way, she’ll leave you completely satisfied! Though we can only tell you about five of her wonderful stories today, rest assured that they are all excellent and you should read them all.
Little Wolves and Baby Ducks [ Teen // 64K // Complete ]
A collection of drabbles depicting the inner monologue of a Chimera of Death hopelessly devoted to a small angry werewolf. AKA all of the season 6 Thiam moments from Theo’s point of view.
EDIT: NOT DRABBLES! I REPEAT, NOT DRABBLES. Look, I might have underestimated how much I love Theo Raeken and his snarky attitude. So now it's all of the season 6 THEO moments, plus a bunch of plot hole filling. (You're welcome.)
You ever wonder what Theo was up to during season 6? Look no further! This fic does a phenomenal job of piecing canon together and staying true to it, while also adding depth and layers to the story. Like how did Theo’s truck riddled with bullet holes magically get fixed? Inside this fic are all the answers! Your heart will ache for Theo, you’ll be proud of him, and you’ll remember all the wonderful reasons that you fell in love with him as he falls head over heels for Liam Dunbar.

Caput Mortuum [ Teen // 16K // Complete ]
Liam had pretty much resigned himself to never leaving his home, but then HE moved in.
Or
The one where Liam is a ghost (but not really) and Theo buys the house he haunts (but not really).
Don’t you just love fics where Liam gets cursed by a witch? This story is a huge favorite of ours! There are honestly no words for this fic, but we will do our best! Your heart aches for Liam as he tries to be seen and as life starts to pass him by. Enter Theo, who is determined to take care of the house and sees something in it that Liam respects. Cue friendship and relationship and lots and lots of feelings!!!

Check You For Ticks [ Mature // 10K // WIP ]
Theo Raeken, lead singer in a famous Alt rock band, tired of riding on the tour bus, and drags his best friend/lead guitarist on a short road trip to the next stop on their tour. Or, at least, that was the plan, before their rental car broke down in a small midwestern town. Enter Liam Dunbar, local jack of all trades and aspiring solo artist, who’s also a big fan of Theo’s band and Theo in particular. While waiting for his car to be fixed, Liam shows Theo that small town life isn’t as boring as he always thought it would be.
It’s funny. It’s sexy. It’s your favorite boys in a unique setting. City boy meets country boy but better. This fic has music, jokes, tattoos, classic songs, dogs, and good ole boys with hearts of gold and punk souls. We cannot recommend this fic enough! And if you show the author a little love on it, we can guarantee that she’ll be pushed to keep writing it! (But seriously, we demand the next chapter. Please? Pretty please?)

Sugar Rush [ Teen // 8K // Complete ]
"Welcome to Sugar Rush. What can I get for you?"
"I'd like a you to go, please."
Remember that tooth-rotting fluff we mentioned earlier? Well, it doesn’t get any sweeter than this! This fic will make you melt like cotton candy on your tongue as you watch Theo get drawn into Liam’s baby blues again and again. He can’t stay away from Liam or the candy store his mother owns, and we can’t stay away from this fic! It’s the kind of story that you’ll bookmark and come back to again and again when you need a pick me up.

Dream Come True [ Explicit // 10K // Complete ]
Liam and Mason have a standing after-Christmas tradition: 5 days of unsupervised bro time at David's cabin. This year, Mason plans to bring Corey along. (“Corey is your bro, Liam. It counts.”) Liam invites Theo so he doesn't have to be a third wheel at his own vacation. When Mason and Corey end up with other plans, Liam gets to spend the week alone with Theo. Which might be a problem, considering his huge crush on the surly chimera. How is he going to survive 5 days alone with this guy?
This is absolute peak thiam. It has everything you possibly want or need in a thiam fic. Mutual pining? Check. Snarky banter and stupid dares? Check. Mild jealousy? Check. Not very subtly checking each other out? Check. From start to finish, you’ll be grinning from ear to ear. A must read.
