Sterek AU: Stiles and Derek have, unknowingly, been fawning over the same little girl for months. The week they each decide to start the adoption process they meet for the first time and realize they’re on a competition for that girl’s heart. Game on.

[mad-madam-m]

The kids would think the dominant one in decision making is Derek because Stiles usually just smiles and goes along with anything Derek wants to do (unless it's a dangerous/risky thing) and kids would think the boss is Derek. When in reality Derek wants Stiles happy & content and acts like Stiles hung the moon and makes decisions very carefully now that he has a family. But since kids don't pay attention to their sappiness they just think Stiles doesn't have any authority. [1of2]

Or the kids think Derek doesn't have any authority because it's Stiles who makes the decisions while Derek silently watches Stiles and be happy after everything he went through he gets to have this, this family he craved for. And Stiles already makes decisions with Derek's happiness in mind so there really is no need for Derek to interrupt him. Of course they have their arguments but over the silliest little things and not in front of the kids so kids don't know how heated Derek can get. [2of2]             

YES. Exactly. This is a headcanon I can get behind. By the time they have kids, Derek and Stiles have been through SO MUCH together and they’ve learned to work through problems just by reading each other’s facial expressions that one of them can make a “unilateral” decision, but it’s really the same decision the other would have made as well.

But their kids don’t see that, they just see that one dad is laying down the law and the other is smiling and nodding along with it and it’s just utterly bizarre to them. So at some point they start to think Stiles is probably the pushover and so they try to run around on him, and then that’s when they remember that he is the son of the sheriff and has a frankly terrifying number of tricks up his sleeve.

I live for the mental image of the moment the kids realize that their parents don’t have an unequal partnership, they’re just on such great terms that it looks like it if you don’t know what to look for.

Guys... Is it just me or is this the little girl Stiles and Derek adopt in the future?

77 fort that writing thing,

Ahhh! Kid things are sooo fun to write, hope you enjoy this fluffy shmoop. Here’s #77: “I lost our child.”

“Okay you need to grab your drink from the counter,” Stiles said as he grabbed the tray of food for the three of them. When there was a lack of response he glanced to his side about to ask again, but nobody was beside him. Worried Stiles set the tray back on the counter of the random mall fast food chain they decided to eat at, looking around the crowd of people.

“Mitchell!” Stiles called, lacking to see the orange hoodie his son wanted to wear today.

“Sir is everything–?”

Before the person behind the counter could finish Stiles left their food and pushed past the crowded line to look at the food court fully. When he couldn’t spot the five year old anywhere Stiles felt panic start to bubble up under his skin. He didn’t even make it two steps before there was a hand on his arm, turning him one eighty.

Derek was there, eyes flashing in obvious distress, “Stiles what’s–?”

“I lost our child,” he rushed out, “one second he was next to me and the next he wasn’t.”

Stiles couldn’t help but feel the pit in his stomach deepen when a look of hurt crossed Derek’s face, mostly human eyes scanning the crowd of people. There could’ve been a number of things that happened. A predator took Mitchell, maybe it was hunters, or…maybe Mitchell was wandered off, hopefully.

Derek grabbed his hand, “I think I caught his smell, but…it’s hard with all these people. Come on.”

Stiles nodded as he allowed Derek to pull him through the food court and down the escalator. It took a moment for Derek to decide but they eventually took a right towards the south end of the mall.

“You seen a five year old in an orange hoodie?” Stiles asked a group of people walking beside them.

“Uh no, sorry,” one said.

He waved them off and Derek started walking even faster. Stores and people rushed by in blurs the only thought on his mind was ‘find Mitchell’. They were nearing the end of this wing of them mall when Derek stopped mid step, Stiles slamming into his back.

“What? Do you–?”

Derek looked back from where they came and Stiles followed his gaze, only to see the store he was looking at was the Disney store of all places. Stiles let go of Derek’s hand in favor of following his legs as he sprinted around people to get to the store. Derek was right behind him, the two of them bursting through the entrance.

“Mitchell Stilinski-Hale get your little butt here right now!” Stiles called as he followed Derek who was leading the way again.

They ended up at the back of the store near the massive wall of stuffed animals. Thankfully Mitchell was right there, staring at the wolf plushie section, his face shifting back and forth from human to wolf. There was a million things to be mad about; the child blatantly leaving his side and their general vicinity, the new grey hairs he and Derek definitely had, and shifting in public.

“Papa why do these wolves have brown eyes? Me and you have gold ones,” Mitchell asked, looking up like he’d done nothing wrong.

Before Stiles could brush of the question in favor of reprimanding the boy, Derek just let out a whine and fell to his knees, pulling Mitchell in tight. The five year old frowned and hugged back, nuzzling in close and Stiles couldn’t help it either. He crouched down and wrapped his arms around both of them, smushing their kid between them.

“Ughh Daddy I can’t breathe!”

Stiles rolled his eyes fondly, “yes you can dude.”

After a moment of Mitchell squirming the three of them parted, Derek taking the lead, “I don’t know why you left Daddy’s side but it’s not okay. You scared both of us. We didn’t know where you were.”

“I’m sorry, I just,” Mitchell started, lower lip sticking out like it did when he was upset, “this girl next to Daddy and I had a Nemo stuffed animal and I wanted one.”

“So you thought leaving my side was a good idea?” Stiles asked, eyebrow raised.

“I guess s’not,” Mitchell sighed, head lowering.

Derek grabbed one of the wolves the boy had been looking at, Stiles nodding at him to give it to Mitchell who held it with a confused look on his face.

“Wolves are better than Nemo,” Derek smiled.

“Of course they are Papa!”

ASK ME A PROMPT FOR THE DRABBLE CHALLENGE!

[mad-madam-m]

I just saw this tweet on a post and it's thought Sterek: My five year old was told 'no' by my partner - she came to me smiling and said 'Dad, do you want to pretend to be boss of the house for a few minutes?'

*snorts* Let’s be real here, any Sterek kid would totally go off playing them against each other (or trying to, anyway). I’m reminded of that photoset where Derek told Erica she couldn’t go to the mall, so she goes to Stiles and asks and when he says “Why do you think I’ll say anything different?” her response is “Because he’s not the boss of you” and Stiles is sitting there thinking “THIS IS A TRAP”

But yeah, Derek would probably tell their kid “no” for some reason, and after 30 seconds of pouting said kid would sidle up to Stiles with a grin and say, “Daddy, do you want to pretend to be boss of the house for a few minutes?”

And Stiles would just be sitting there going “I KNOW THIS IS A TRAP BUT ALSO THIS KID KNOWS HOW TO PLAY ME AND THAT’S KIND OF SCARY” and Derek is halfway across the house and he can HEAR all of this going on and is torn between letting Stiles sweat it out or stomping in there to remind their kid that hey, Papa has supernatural hearing, you know, and now you’re actually grounded.

(Stiles grumbles about this later, until Derek reminds him that he’s usually the boss in bed. Stiles is okay with this.)

[mad-madam-m]

Derek lowkey frustrated with Stiles cuz he won't let Derek spoil their kids

This is 100% what would happen because let me tell you, Derek Hale is going to spoil the shit out of any child who gets within arm’s reach. Stiles is like “Derek we cannot let them have donuts at 9pm.”

“Why not?”

“Because they were supposed to be in bed two hours ago.”

But Derek is a sucker for a pair of puppy dog eyes and he’s honestly so happy to have a family again that he can’t stop himself from flinging all the love and affection onto them that he missed out on with his own. And Stiles gets that, really he does, but for God’s sake they are responsible for molding these kids into decent adults and there are already like 10 strikes against them just for being part Stilinski.

(Eventually he and Derek manage to come to an agreement. Derek is allowed to have one day a week where he can take the kids out and do whatever they want. Derek is okay with that compromise.)

Lullabies

*slides back into Tumblr six weeks late with Starbucks and a Sterek fic*

Derek walked past the nursery with the laundry basket full of folded clothes, paused, and peeked inside. He'd heard Stiles singing quietly to their daughter from across the house, but he hadn't been able to make out just what he'd been singing.

It was the slowest version of "Uptown Funk" Derek had ever heard in his life.

"Too hot, hot damn," Stiles crooned, swaying back and forth and patting their baby on the back. "Call the police and the fireman..."

Derek had to bite his lips to keep from laughing, but he wasn't able to suppress a snort entirely.

Stiles's head snapped to the door, and he narrowed his eyes. "She's almost asleep. If you wake her up, I will skin you and wear your pelt."

Derek shook his head. "Uptown Funk, Stiles? Really? As a lullaby?"

"I couldn't think of anything else!" Stiles hissed.

"What did your parents sing to you?" Derek asked.

"I don't remember! I was a baby!"

Leila rubbed her face on his chest and started to fuss, and Stiles's eyes doubled in size and he started bouncing her gently. "Sh, sh, sweetie, don't cry. If you cry, Daddy's going to lose his mind and throw something at your papa's head."

Derek suppressed a smile and made his way into the dim nursery. Leila was a werewolf; she'd probably calm down quicker if she smelled both him and Stiles near her.

He wrapped his arms around Stiles, sandwiching Leila between their bodies, and Leila's fussing quieted into her usual soft "I'm tired but I don't want to sleep yet" whines. He tipped his head toward Stiles's and breathed in deep, inhaling the scent of all three of them, his family and pack.

He started humming, swaying them back and forth, listening to Leila's whines peter out into even breaths.

"Are you humming Beauty and the Beast?" Stiles whispered accusingly.

"Hush," Derek whispered back. "If you wake her up, you have to get her back to sleep."

Stiles snapped his mouth shut, but from the glare he was giving, Derek knew they weren't done with this conversation.

He carefully deposited Leila in her cradle, waited a few beats until it was pretty clear she wasn't waking back up, and then crept out of her room with Stiles right on his heels.

Derek picked up the laundry basket and headed back toward their bedroom to finish putting the clothes away.

"Really, dude?" Stiles followed him into the bedroom. "You give me shit about ‘Uptown Funk’ but you break out the Disney tunes? How are those lullabies?"

"At least it's supposed to be a slow song in the first place," Derek said.

Stiles made a face. "That's the argument you're going with? She's five months old! She doesn't have a clue what I'm singing or how it's supposed to sound!"

Derek put away a stack of T-shirts. "You're explaining it to your dad if her first words are 'too hot, hot damn.'"

Stiles walked up and hugged Derek from behind. "Psh, my first word was apparently 'shit.' Pretty sure any number of lyrics from ‘Uptown Funk’ would be better than that."

Derek laughed. "Are you going to help me put away laundry, or are you just going to snuggle me to death?"

"Mmm." Stiles burrowed his face into the middle of Derek's back. "Snuggling you is pretty great, A plus, would do every day for the rest of my life. Oh wait, I totally get to, because I put a ring on it."

Derek smiled down at their dresser, and then turned so that he could hold Stiles properly, could press his nose into Stiles's neck and breathe him in.

Even after four years of marriage, he marveled that he got to have this, have a husband he loved and trusted and a baby girl he adored, after everything he'd lost. After he'd spend so many years thinking he didn't deserve to be happy again, didn't deserve to have good things in his life.

He still didn't feel like it, some days. But he was getting better. Stiles and Leila helped make it better.

"Love you," Derek murmured into Stiles's neck.

Stiles scratched his fingers through Derek's hair. "Love you, too."

What I read last week

5/12/16-11/12/16

So I realized that I might not manage to get all things I read on these lists, mostly because not everything I read is Sterek - OMG - and because some of it I read via the Tumblr phone app - and thus forgetting to bookmark it in my little folder for the week X’D

But either way here is most of what I read last week. As stated before it’s some re-reads, new for me, series and all that jazz.

You’re it for me by lightsfillthesky (Not Rated) Summary: Person A to their child: Honey you can’t call your classmates peasants Child: But that’s what daddy calls the people who annoy him! Person A: *glares at person B* Person B: *shrugs* the kids a genius what can i say spinoff

Have your cake and eat it too by cloudyskiesandcurlyfries (Gen) Summary:  The one with cookies and first kisses

hang up your pup habit, hang it up daddy by DenaCeleste (Explicit) Summary: Derek was headed for Pup Habit, a wonderful place where Alpha werewolves could relax and have all sorts of fun around pups, non-Alpha werewolf and human alike. He'd been looking forward to this trip for months, but he didn't count on Stiles butting into things. Stiles didn't know where Derek thought he was going, but he looked happy about it. That was a freaky enough occurrence to pique Stiles' curiosity, so he insisted on joining in. He didn't expect to arrive at a house full of people pretending to be puppies with people who actually turned into wolves in charge. He certainly didn't expect he'd become Derek's personal pup. But that's exactly what happened.

Sleep Awhile by allyasavedtheday (Teen and Up) Summary:  Stiles and Derek decide to take part in some mutually beneficial naptime

Finger Food by AllTheseSquaresMakeACircle (Explicit) Summary:  Derek Hale didn't expect for his mother to give him the alpha power. Especially not before he graduated high school. He also didn't expect to meet another teenage alpha, Scott McCall. Or his human best friend, Stiles. He didn't expect himself to be fixated on Stiles long and slender fingers. Or his exceptional skills in the kitchen. Derek didn't expect a lot of things. Then again, sometimes that unexpected turned out to be a good thing.

Accidents Happen by defenselesswriter (Teen and Up) Summary: prompt: canon era sterek and accidental baby acquisition.

What You Deserve Over What You Wish by Bumpkin (Teen and Up) Summary:  Derek and Stiles are searching for Erica and Boyd over the summer. They think they have found a lead, but instead get much more. The more is good or bad, depending on who you ask.

best. day. ever. by allhalethekings (Gen) Summary: There’s something wrong, Zara just knows it because she’s a Stilinski and Stilinskis are never wrong about this stuff, so she asks Stacey about it the next day before homeroom. “But how’s he acting weird?” Stacey asks. “He gets jumpy when I come into the room and he’s on the phone and then he starts giggling a lot and sometimes I even hear him breathing really loudly at night!” Zara lists off using her fingers. “Breathing loudly?” Stacey asks, confused. “Maybe he’s exercising?”

Puppy Love by hazelNuts (Teen and Up) Summary: kaylaful asked: "Hey I don't know if you're taking prompts but I was wondering if you had a chance if you could write a super Fluffy eestablished relationship Sterek fic where Stiles is always volunteering with dogs and puppies because he really wants to adopt one but is thinks Derek wont want one so never mentions it but Derek knows and brings him to adopt a puppy on a date or something at all involving cute puppies and adorable fluffly Sterek? I adore you're writing BTW! Thanks you :) "Everything is set for a perfectly romantic anniversary day, but Derek still feels like there’s something missing. He wants something that lets Stiles know that he loves what they have, that he loves Stiles, and that he loves every moment with him, the moments in the past and the ones still to come.”

Pool Party by Inell (Gen) Summary: Lydia’s plan to get Stiles and Derek together changes when she notices their interactions during the pack pool party.

Family Don't End With Blood by bella8876 (Not rated) Summary:  “I got a call from Deaton earlier,” Derek said. “There was an Omega up in Washington. She was feral. The local pack had to put her down. They didn’t find out until later that she had a baby. Only 3 months old.” Stiles stopped chopping and turned to Derek. “I know we’d been talking lately about contacting the surrogate again, but I was thinking…the local pack won’t take him in. They’re watching him for now but they won’t—he doesn’t have anyone else.”

His by neil4god (Not rated) Summary:  He was always alone, head stuck in a book or glued to his phone. He never seemed to talk to anyone, was too busy running from class to the library and back again. Kent couldn't help but feel bad for him, after all he was his room-mate and he could see just how alone the poor guy was. At least, that's what he assumed, turned out he didn't know the first thing about Stilinski.

An Excercise In Trust by Peasantaries (Teen and Up) Summary: Derek purses his mouth tightly, looking from him to the t-shirt to him again. Then he hooks his finger underneath and wears it like a finger puppet. He wriggles his finger, then raises his eyebrows.Stiles stares back. "What's your point?" In which magic makes them realise their feelings.

You Say Your Love Is Bona Fide by suchfun (Teen and Up) Summary: It's like the stars have finally aligned, and Laura doesn't think she has ever had, or will ever have, another parenting moment this pure in her whole life. "Okay fine," she says, cutting Cora off just as she's opening her mouth to complain some more. "You can date.” Cora's mouth drops open. "Seriously?" "Yeah, sure, why not, you can totally date." She pauses, letting the moment build, letting the hope build in Cora's eyes, before qualifying, "When Derek does.” The look on Cora's face makes every parenting crisis Laura's ever had (of which there have been many over the past three years) worth it.

Outside Looking In by trulywicked (Not rated) * One of my favorite Outside Pov * Summary:  The never ending parade of deliciously hot people who came to see him were a fantastic source of entertainment for Stiles Stilinski's college roommates.

Where we belong by thecheekydragon  (Explicit) Summary: Derek rescues a little werewolf girl and takes on the responsibility of caring for her. Stiles helps.

Alpha Stiles (Series) by scepticallyopenminded  (Not rated - Gen - Teen and Up - Mature) Summary: “I’m an Alpha. A human Alpha?” Stiles asks, again, for clarification. He knows his voice comes out a bit strangled, but out of all the things that could possibly happen to him, being a human in a variety of mythical creatures, becoming their leader was not one of them he had thought of.
