[ FIVE DEATHS ] send for five times our muses almost died together and the one time the sender does. // Stiles 💋
FIVE TIMES Drabble Prompt
Near death experiences were so par for the course that Damon barely even registered them anymore. Every interaction from a werewolf to a new vampire to the monster of the week really counted as near death. Stiles was human and no matter how much he was berated, he continued to get into more trouble than Elena and Jeremy combined.
Unlike Jer? Stiles didn't have the protection of a family ring that brought you back from the dead.
One time, Stiles followed Damon and Stefan to a literal vampire nest. To help. Stefan ended up hanging on by a string and a little bit of doppelganger blood. Stiles almost lost an arm, mainlining Damon's blood in a dirty basement before the elder Salvatore could go clean up everyone's mess. He took out his fear for their lives in a rampage through the house. No one else was left standing.
One time, Damon was drunk off his ass and tasting colors driving home from a rave, date night. He ended up wrapping his '68 around a tree and slurring apologies to an unconscious body. He compelled that memory away.
One time, Stiles went home to Beacon Hills to help his best friend with some trouble, despite Damon nearly compelling him not to go. He was human, how was he supposed to help with werewolf problems??? Damon pouted for three days before following him to California. It was a just in the nick of time situation and Damon vowed to never let Stiles out of his sight again.
One time, Stiles played bait for a certain original, it was the only way the plan was going to work. Even if he didn't actually almost die that time? It sure fucking felt like he was going to. Damon couldn't breathe for twelve hours prior and twelve hours post the event.
One time, Stiles got into a fight in the bathroom at a random bar they were drinking at. The fight was just with another random guy, nothing supernatural about it, but a punch to Stiles' temple dropped him like a light and his head banged off the sink in a gnarly accident. Damon heard the commotion a little too late to intervene, but he murdered the perpetrator in cold blood and fed Stiles' from his wrist to help with the damage.
One time, Damon was the one dying of a wolf bite. The irony of all Stiles friends and favorite people being wolves and this is what has his boyfriend on death's door without a cure. Stiles stayed with him, held his hand, brought him blood that he couldn't keep down, wiped the sweat from his brow... He refused to leave with Damon tried to tell him it was unsafe. That there was nothing he could do. He stayed when Damon started hallucinating. When Damon stopped recognizing him. He didn't run when Damon attacked him. He died saying it wasn't his fault.
