Joining Forces against Dr. Harris

"...and the final project requires that you work in pairs," Harris announced in his usual drone. Boring enough that Stiles nearly missed it. "I have paired everyone up, the list is in the class notes. You can only trade partners, you cannot unilaterally drop partners. I am taking no complaints on the pairings. The homework for tonight is lab three and is also in the class notes. If you have questions, direct them to the TA. See you next week. Good afternoon."

With that, Harris shut down the computer, gathered the notes he had been reading from, and left the room without offering an opportunity for questions. His usual mode of operation.

"What the fuck?" Stiles muttered, logging into the online class system and quickly scrolling to the class notes Harris had obviously put up two seconds before walking into the classroom.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Teen Wolf (TV) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski Additional Tags: Post-Canon, FBI Agent Stiles Stilinski, getting to know each other again, 12 Days of Sterek, reconnecting, Getting Together, Brief Mentions of Canon Summary:

The man standing on his porch waiting for him is unmistakable even after six years. Though his hair has grown out longer and there’s a scraggly beard covering his once bare chin, the unexpected guest is undoubtably Stiles.

Derek swallows and tries to subtly catch a whiff of his scent. Then he swallows again when he smells nothing but the Colorado trees.

“Stiles?” His mouth is dry. "What are you doing here?”

Despite the bags under his eyes, Stiles’ smile is bright. “Hey, Derek. I-. It’s been a long time. Can I come in?”

That's all it takes. Derek opens the door.

Merry Christmas, @nightlight9!

Happy Secret Santa Exchange!

I don't actually like coffee

Stiles didn’t plan to move back to the west coast after college and open a coffee shop. The plan was to stay east, get into the FBI, and maybe carve out a spot in one of the more lucrative departments. Then he went on a training mission, wound up injured, and found out he was a Spark. 

From there it was a rush of training, fighting, almost dying a few times, training more, and meeting far too many creatures he previously thought were fake. 

He landed right back where he grew up. Beacon Hills. Only now it wasn’t the quiet, lazy, half-abandoned town with a few-too-many animal attacks. 

Well, it was still half-abandoned. 

And it definitely still had ‘animal’ attacks.

Merry Christmas, @nightlight9!

I am terrible at tropes and so sorry if this is the worst coffee shop AU ever written. I mean... it does sort of take place in a coffee shop at the beginning so I guess that counts?

I'll follow you down

Stiles was a few months from completing his Master’s in Ancient Studies when he’d stumbled upon the treasury that was the Hale Museum. It lived in its own tiny universe mostly hidden away inside a beautifully built three story building wedged up against one side of Beacon Hills University. The museum itself wasn’t huge, but it still took up most of the entire lower level.

The next level up was the university’s rare book room, and a tiny cafe where Stiles had taken to researching long hours into the night. Since the café was also a part of the adjacent University it was often open all hours to graduate students. When it got late enough Stiles could find himself completely alone in the building with the exception of the employees.

Chapters: 2/2 Fandom: Teen Wolf (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski Characters: Lydia Martin, Erica Reyes Additional Tags: One Night Stands, except not, Snowed In, Pining, alcohol mention, Morning After, Implied/Referenced Sex, Alternate Universe - After College/University, Alternate Universe - Human Summary:

No matter how good looking someone happened to be, or how great the sex was, Derek’s never had a problem walking away. When it’s done he gets out, no strings attached. That’s that. With Stiles it was different though, right from the start. Derek hadn’t even been planning on leaving the bar with anyone the night before, especially not the loud-mouthed kid celebrating his best friend’s bachelorette party with way too much enthusiasm. But he’s glad that he did.

Although, getting snowed in at his one night stand’s house might change his mind.
