Okay, first of all, I love you. With all my heart! And I was wondering if you knew of any fics where Derek (or Stiles) just came back from serving in the military? Preferably a long fic if you know any 😃😃😘😘

Hey!

Thank you so much!! Here are a few and there’s a bunch more military fics here that you might like. :) 

Cornerstone by Vendelin | 83.7K

Suffering from PTSD, ex-Marine Derek Hale moves back to Beacon Hills to open a bookshop and find a calmer life. That’s where he meets Stiles, completely by accident. Stiles is talkative, charming and curious. Somehow, despite the fact that he’s blind, he’s able to read Derek like no one else.

Air Mail. by  Handsofred | 20.2K

‘’Oh my god’’ Stiles breathed out as heavy booted footsteps faded away down the hall. ‘’oh my god’’

‘’Stiles?’’ Allison asked as he scrambled around the desk searching for the last letter before he was thrusting it at their faces.

‘’It’s him…my soldier…it’s him, it’s Mattie’s dad’’ He told them, his eyes wide as Allison took the letter from him, ‘’oh my god, oh my god and I fainted in front of him…oh Jesus Christ’’

Stiles Stilinski is now an ex-army sniper and engaged to kindergarten teacher Derek Hale. All he wants is to leave his military service and experiences behind him so he can move on and build his life with Derek.

But it isn’t always easy when the battlefield follows you home.

Everyday Will Be Like a Holiday by wirewrappedlily 

(1,395 I General I Complete)  *soldier!Derek

When Stiles woke at ten the next morning, Derek was curled tight around him, Erica’s head in the dip of Derek’s waist, and Isaac’s thin form thrown over their legs, Scott lying around both Stiles and Isaac while Lydia slept in as small a ball as possible on Stiles’s chest, Boyd’s hand on her head as if she’d had a nightmare. Stiles smiled to himself, going back to staring at Derek’s sleeping features. The curve of his eyelashes and the relaxed shape of his mouth. He wanted to trace his finger over the line of Derek’s nose, leave hickies over the straight edge of Derek’s jaw. It was new and old and so good Stiles wanted to cry.

Derek was home.

“Honey! I’m home!” Stiles shouted into the empty apartment as he moved quickly through to the kitchen, dumping his backpack onto bench before crossing to the fridge and crossing off another day on the calendar.

From Desert to Home by  countrygirlsfun | 43.9K

What happens when you meet your pen pal and they’re perfect even when life isn’t?

Little does Stiles know that the teacher who started writing him letters a few months into his last deployment with the Army would become the person he would lean on the most when his life changes forever.

The Division by  traveller | 11.3K

They recruited him right out of high school. He doesn’t know why he accepted, he. He just did. Maybe because at eighteen he’d already seen more death than a lot of people did by eighty, and maybe this was a chance to get around it, get ahead of it, put an end to it. Some of it. Death itself can’t be stopped, not without something worse. Maybe he thought they’d show him how to be the something worse.

“What the hell kind of a name is Stiles?” he asked.

“You know, a series of sounds spoken in a particular sequence that represent my identity, primarily, referring to me?“ the AI – Stiles – answered cheekily, crossing his own arms in front of his chest, mirroring Derek’s position.

“Ooh, this one’s feisty,” Peter smirked.

Confident in Victory by  weathervaanes | 6.5K

You’ll See Me Again by  matildajones | 10.1K

Stiles is the soldier who saved Derek and brought him back home. He doesn’t seem to care that Derek’s a prince or that he’s a little bit broken. Derek falls, quick and sure, but it’s not easy knowing that Stiles will soon have to return to the war.

Stiles is standing there in his uniform, hair long and hands behind his back. There’s a blush on his cheeks and he can barely look Derek in the eye.

“Hey,” he whispers. He’s wearing the medal Derek had presented to him.

Derek stares. He doesn’t think he’s breathing anymore.

hi, i checked through all your tags and I couldn't find what i was looking for, i was wondering if you had any military!stiles fic recs? tysm, your blog is a life saver!!

Anon, I have just discovered that we have a Soldier!Derek tag, but no Military AU tag (we do, have ever, have a bunch of specific wars, which you can check out under our “Historical AUs” column.). Needless to say, we freaking suck at tagging.

“Five months this weekend.” Scott blurts out suddenly.

“Yeah.” Derek agrees, remembers having this same conversation with the Sheriff two days ago.

Stiles has been gone for five months and the three of them had to learn how to live without him for so long. It wasn’t easy and despite the Skype conversations making things better, it’s still not the same. For Derek especially, it’s been torture. Their bed feels cold without Stiles’ body there and the house they bought together is too big for Derek to live all by himself.

We Fight Monsters Together by scarlettletterr

(11,555 I Explicit I Complete I Age Difference, Science Fiction AU)

Derek Hale doesn’t trust humans anymore and is determined to pilot his family’s mecha alone. Too bad he doesn’t get a choice when he’s paired up with the brightest most sarcastic human mind to ever come out of Beacon Hills in the form of Stiles Stilinski.

Stranger Things by OneSmartChicken

(28,827 I Teen I Complete I Magic!Stiles)

The war started when Stiles was 22 and he was alongside the first line of recruits. Shortly after, Stiles disappeared, to be declared MIA two years later.

But that’s not where the story ends. Hell, that’s not even the story. That’s just one side of the 12-sided dice.

Things Change. by madiv951

(30,419 I Mature I Complete I Warning: PTSD, Panic Attacks, Anxiety)

Stiles looses sleep at night thinking about how he and the Sheriff are going to afford putting him through college on the measly government paycheck his dad is currently getting. He talks to Jordon about his worries after dropping dinner off for his dad at the station. Jordon suggests something that hadn’t occurred to Stiles.

Join the military.

So that’s what Stiles does. He figures he’ll put in a few years in the reserves and get his college education paid for. It’s a pretty solid plan until Stiles realizes something. He loves being in the military. Loves the control it gives him over his life. And when a colonel approaches him about becoming a training officer on base, how can Stiles say no?

War Crimes by loserchic

(81,240 I Mature I Complete I Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, technically a GI Jane AU)

In a fantastical military state, Stiles, an orphaned nobody, street smart omega was rescued as a child by war hero alpha, Commander Derek Hale. Six years later, Stiles still maintains an obsession with taking care of himself and a blatant mistrust of alphas. Stiles becomes the first omega to be accepted into elite training with the Black Wolves, the military’s special operations force. Derek has always intended to mate with Stiles and is furious at the idea of him entering training. However, Stiles’ guardians only agree to allow Derek to mate with Stiles if he allows Stiles to attempt Black Wolves’ training. Derek becomes Stiles’ commanding officer and the war between them begins. Also a lot of fraternization.

Alright, buttheads. I made a post awhile back about how there are so many soldier!Derek fanfics but like zero soldier!Stiles fics. I desperately wanted a fic that has Stiles going into the military to pay for college and then getting caught up in how much he likes it. 

So here it is. 30,000 words of fucking trash about Sterek angst and fluff. Read it. Don't read it. Whatever. I am just happy I am done with this fucking monster.

[offmyrocker95]
