Hi! Not sure if this is still active (mobile tumblr does not show dates. 🤷♀️).
I am hoping it is and that you can help me.
I'm looking for a fic. It's not recent because I've read it a long while ago. Derek is inspired (don't remember if it's his idea or a suggestion) by the twelve step program used by AA, to try and apply it to himself. Because it seems to be "reconnecting with your human self". Learning to care for yourself.
He gets a plant and is so careful with taking care of it. Then a pet? I think?
I remember that Stiles is supportive even though I don't remember if it was his idea or if he just figures out what Derek is doing.
Obviously, as Derek feels more grounded, they get closer.
Does that ring a bell at all?
Sorry, It sounds familiar but I’m not sure of the title.
Can anyone else help with this fic?

Instead he sits for a moment, looking at the empty search box, fingers on the home row the way his mother taught him. He thinks about that, and about the hole in the wall he’d lived with for so long, and the way Isaac had grinned at him last night when he’d finally gotten around to plugging the refrigerator in.
He finds himself typing in, “how to be a normal person.”
