Summary: "I have… well… she said that she thinks that I maybe have… PTSD?” The line goes so dead that Derek almost thinks Stiles hung up on him. He waits eight very quiet seconds, and says softly, “Stiles?” “I’m sorry, what?” Stiles says, breath whooshing back over the phone line. “I have PTSD,” Derek says more firmly. It’s the first time he’s said it out loud, not as a question. It hasn’t really seemed real, until now. He’d spent the whole of his last session arguing that Tamara was wrong about him, and saying it out loud is like admitting it’s true. “Post-traumatic stress dis—” “I know what it means,” Stiles interrupts, “I just didn’t think I’d heard right. Oh my God.”

My thoughts: I really like the flashbacks and how the PTSD is handled. I also like how Stiles doesn't handle the news handidly, he stumbles and makes mistakes. It makes it feel a little more real. TW for past SA.

And maybe it’s irony, or the universe at work, or maybe it’s just Derek Hale’s shitty luck, but that’s when, at that exact moment (as Stiles will swear later), there’s a knock on the door. “Laura?” Derek breathes in disbelief, and Stiles feels his own face fall into confused slackness. Because the girl standing in the doorway? The last time Stiles had seen her—or, well, half of her—she’d been very naked, and very, very dead. “Hey, baby bro,” she says with a grin. ... OR: The one where Laura comes back from the dead, and it turns out to be bad for Stiles, because he’s suddenly spending a lot of quality time with one of the coolest people he’s ever met, and her brother. The guy that he might be just a little in love with. He's not okay.

Fics I Love

In Cups of Coffee by Idday

Sterek | 8k | Mature

"Stiles breaks up with Derek on a Tuesday.

It's the hardest thing he's ever had to do, and he wants to get it done as soon as possible so he can go burrow into his self-hatred and stay there."

I really like talking to you, it turns out. I tell you stuff I don’t tell, like, my dad, or Isaac, or even Scott, sometimes.” Derek closes his eyes, and breaths, like he can take these words into his lungs and make them a part of himself. Like he can use them to feel better.

Fanfic Rec #10 Alexei "Tater" Mashkov/Kent "Parse" Parson (Check Please!)

One time Tater’s cat needed veterinary care (and 5 times she didn’t) by ricekrispyjoints Nine years ago, if someone had told Kent Parson that he would attend eight years of school and become a veterinarian instead of a professional hockey player, he would have called them delusional. But here he is at a small clinic in Providence, fresh out of vet school and ready to start the next chapter of his life. And then in walks one Russian NHL player who seems to be having a lot of problems with his cat...

the only happiness by Potrix It takes less than a week for Kent to snap. He’d expected to get some extra attention during the off-season, given Jack’s little stunt after winning the Cup, but even after over half a decade in the NHL, he’d been completely taken aback by the sheer intensity of the entirety of the hockey media descending on him. Getting drafted first overall didn’t hold a candle to being the former best friend of the league’s first openly queer player, apparently.

Here We Are, Two Strangers by CoffeeStars Alternatively, “Kent and Alexei’s Guide on How to Screw Around and (Not) Talk about Feelings” The year in which Kent Parson, famous NHL player and renowned (read: lonely) party animal, reads trashy erotic novels, fails to learn Russian from Alexei’s mom through elaborate contemporary dance, co-adopts a dog, and fucks his way into domesticity and, surprisingly, a functional relationship.

I’m Not Sorry (if i’m breaking walls down) by Idday Kent probably shouldn't be so surprised that his daughter is obsessed with hockey, and a Zimmermann. In that order.Apparently some things just run in the family.

Stay by orphan_account It's not actually because of Jack, but Kent would rather people just assume.  At least until he runs into Mashkov after the game.  But when he's invited for a beer instead of a beating, Kent realises things are about to change.

REASONS I WOULD DATE DEREK HALE by Idday

[7284w | Teen]

When Stiles moves back to Beacon Hills after college, he pretty much immediately decides to convince Derek Hale to date him.

Unfortunately for him, it seems as though they're not on the same page. Like, Derek thinks Stiles hates him (and apparently, so does everybody else). And surprisingly, none of Stiles SUPER ROMANTIC (screw you, Scott) plans to woo Derek seem to be working. Probably because Derek still thinks Stiles is making fun of him. Or something.

But Stiles is nothing if not stubborn. He's going to win Derek over. No matter what.

His 10 point lists are definitely going to help (no matter what Lydia says).

Note: This is a wonderful read with characterisations I don't think I've come across before where, as the author describes it, "picture Stiles thinking they're season 1 Sterek, while Derek has actually retained his maturation trajectory". I spent most of it half cringing/half almost-laughing thinking "GDI STILES!", though the dream sequence cuts particularly deep but is fantastically written and really feels like a blow to the stomach. All the blankets and cuddles for Derek!

This fic was sent in by an anon requesting fics similar to it. These might not be exactly what they’re looking for, but here! (I’ve tried to put them in order of relevance...)

[eternalsterekrecs]

I love you, Derek, and I want to love you until the moon itself falls from the sky.  I want to love you like you deserve to be loved. I want to share your triumphs, your burdens, your full moons and your new. I want you to be as sure of my love as you are the phases of the moon—changing, perhaps, but always present. I want to love you like the moon loves you. I can love you with all I have and it may never be enough. All I can ask in return is that you let me be your sun. Let me pull you into my path, let me warm you, let me see the best parts of me reflected in your face. Let me promise that the night will always end, that I can chase it from you as sure as a sunrise.
