I have an angst fic recs here, but let's make a part two!

It's All I Can Do by Vanyela

This is what happened the night the Kanima struck at the pool. This is why Stiles really held Derek up and this is what happened when Scott got there two minutes later than a good friend should have. Based off the prompt: "Stiles shoves Derek to the top of the pool even as he’s drowning because Derek is worth so much more than Stiles could ever be."

Optional by Cheshyr

Stiles is acutely aware of the fact that no one really chooses him. They just get stuck with him.

Holy Injuries, Batman! by LadyDrace

Stiles gets hurt. Badly. Getting better turns out to be more of a process than anyone expected, and there are a few surprises along the way.

Empty by modestfuckup

Stiles stops listening to the words the doctor is saying, a stream of tears rolling down his face. His training taught him he has to remain calm. He uses a tissue to blot at the tears as his mind already turns to what is going to happen now. The doctor is talking about his options, and treatments he could undergo, but Stiles knows none of that will work. He’s infertile. With no way to supply his alpha with an heir, he is practically useless. Or the one where Stiles is an infertile omega, and society dictates that if an omega is unable to carry on the alpha's lineage, an alpha is allowed to take another omega. Stiles hides his condition from Derek while he copes and starts the process of finding a new omega for him.

The Mating Privilege by Kikileduc

Stiles and Derek have been happily mated. The pack is doing well, but in hopes of creating alliances for it to do better, Derek accepts a neighboring pack's request to allow two wolves to join the Hale-McCall pack for a full moon cycle. They hope to form a blood-tie, or at least a long term friendship between the two packs. The issue is Kohona, the tribal leader's daughter, has her eyes set on an unavailable alpha wolf. This could have drastic consequences for their young emissary, however…

Abiding By Pack Law by neil4god

Traditionally the Alpha mate must meet certain requirements, however there are always certain exceptions. For every rule there is someone who has broken it, well almost every rule. There is one rule that no-one has ever broken. The alpha's pack must approve the match, if they don't, well a new mate is required. Unfortunately Stiles know he doesn't fit the requirements, the pack hate him, Derek just hasn't realised it yet.

I Shouldn't Love you Anymore by wulfarchival (wyrmwolf)

After Stiles divorces Derek under mysterious reasons, Derek moves out into the middle of nowhere loosing himself to the wolf after the ache in his chest becomes too much. But after weeks of being lost to an animal someone he thought he'd never see again returns in his life. This time to stay forever.

All Derek Ever Wanted by Dexterous_Sinistrous

Stiles knew Derek always wanted a big family. And, for the longest time, he thought he'd be the one to give it to him. Life, devastatingly, has other plans. Prompt: "I've been thinking about omega stiles n alpha derek. They're trying to hav a baby. But one day stiles go to the doc, n he imply that stiles can't get pregnant. Stiles keep it secret and try to make derek divorce him."

This Quiet Torment

Derek has had a crush on Stiles, a young omega who goes to his school since he first laid eyes on him. He has watched him continually come to school with bruises and flesh wounds delivered by his abusive father and all he’s ever wanted to do was help but Stiles never let him get close enough. Until, one night, Stiles ends up at Derek’s house, with more than a flesh wound and Derek will do everything in his power to protect him.

Stay with me by Beautiful_noise

Derek gets a glimpse of the future in which Stiles has two biological daughters and that's how he knows he and Stiles are going to break up.

Leave It All Behind by asarcasticwitch

A coil of panic tightens in his chest as, after just three short rings, Derek’s voice—raspy as if barely awake—echoes through the speaker. “Do you know what time it is?” he grumbles, and at any other time, Stiles would’ve made a joke or retorted with something so sarcastic it would’ve undoubtedly earned him a huff in return. But right now, he can’t think of anything to say.

This Can of Worms by LadyDrace

Derek knows Stiles has been crying, and he's the alpha, dammit, he's supposed to be able to help his pack members. But what is he supposed to do when Stiles won't let him?

all stories deserve an end by bleep0bleep

No one hardly ever comes up to this area of the forest, especially with the rumors of the “mad wizard.” Stiles encourages the rumor, because it means people leave him alone. It’s a good, solitary existence as long as Stiles pretends the aching loneliness in his heart isn’t there.

I Just Need You by beckybrit

“Derek?” He’s surprised at how steady his voice is, considering he’s absolutely terrified. It’s been a long time since he’s been afraid of Derek, but the eyes looking back at him now are full of hate and the promise of death. Stiles shudders but steadfastly refuses to look away. “Derek, I know it doesn’t look like it, but it’s me… Stiles.”

Sterek but it’s Mitski’s song “I’m your Man”

Like: “you’re an angel, I’m a dog/Or you’re a dog and I’m your man… I’m sorry I’m the one you love/no one will ever love me like you again”

Like that’s literally textbook sterek (in my opinion it works from both POVs)

They’re just so yearning angst self-immolation about their love for each other 😭😭

[celestialvoid-fanfiction]

Imagine Derek going to visit his family’s graves and he sees Stiles laying flowers on them. He approaches quietly, trying not to startle Stiles and says he's always wondered who put the flowers there because he wanted to thank them. He admits he hasn’t been able to bring himself to lay flowers on their graves since they were buried because he feels like he’s back at their funeral(s) and the pain is too much.

Yo lowkey I’m eating a Thonalby burger and a Newtmas tomato soup with Thominho fries and a Nalby side salad with a Sonyarriet shake and some Brenderesa ice cream with some Minally candy and some Jeffston cookies with some ‘Stiles Stilinski as Thomas’ gummy worms and some ‘Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski angst’ gum so my breath can be fresh oh and also some ‘Newt as Simon Brown’ beer on the side too

THIS IS NOT A DRILL, I POSTED CHAPTER 6 OF NOTHING LIKE LOSING A LIMB

(i told you guys i was updating for real this time lol)

[bleedingredthreads]

AND CHAPTERS 11–20 OF “HE LOVED ME WRONG: THE NIGHT I STOPPED BEING YOURS” ARE NOW LIVE, MY LITTLE WOLFPIT DEMONS 🐺🔥🖤

YES. WE ARE OFFICIALLY HALFWAY TO EMOTIONAL RUIN. YES. I AM STILL RUNNING ON PURE RED BULL AND SPITE. NO. THERAPY HAS NOT BEEN CONTACTED.

✨ WELCOME TO THE MIDDLE ARC OF PAIN™ ✨ The section of the book where:

💔 Stiles says “I’m fine.” 😐 He is not fine.

🌙 Derek starts losing sleep. 🔪 I start losing sanity.

🚨 Papa Stilinski and Sourwolf are closing in like a tag-team of emotional devastation.

🚨 Stiles connects NOTHING because he is running on trauma fumes.

AND THEN— AND THEN—

We reach That Chapter. You know the one. The one where the playlist suddenly makes sense. The one where the Portland fog gets thicker. The one where Stiles stops running but starts falling apart. The one where Derek realises: “oh no… I messed up six years ago and apparently I’m STILL messing up 💀✨”

YES. IT HURTS. YES. I WROTE IT WITH MY BARE HANDS. YES. MY TEARS WERE USED AS INK.

🐺💥 THE WOLFPIT IS HOWLING and I am absorbing your pain like some kind of emotionally parasitic forest cryptid.

ALSO: The Maze Runner–coded foreshadowing? Oh you thought I was done? No no no, sweet chaos gremlins. Book 2 whispers in the walls. Book 2 scratches at the floorboards at 3am. Book 2 is breathing down your neck like “hi 👀”

🔥 More familiar faces? 🔥 More running? 🔥 More trauma bonding? ABSOLUTELY.

AND BECAUSE I DO NOT REST:

📅 MORE CHAPTERS DROP TOMORROW 📅 (and the next day… and the next… because frankly at this point, I have become a sleepless Victorian ghost with a keyboard)

🎧 ALSO the playlist? Updated. Expanded. Evolved into its final emo Pokémon form.

p.s. I’m finishing the final chapter of Book 2 and then FLINGING myself into Book 3 like GALLEY YEETED THAT RADIO — WITH PASSION 😤🔥 WITH RIGHTEOUS PURPOSE ⚖️⚡️ AND WITHIN THE SACRED, ANCIENT ART OF RADIO YEETING 📻💥✨

This isn’t chaos 😌 This is tradition 🕯️📜 This is heritage 🧬 This is the spiritual ceremony of choosing violence against electronics because feelings are hard 😭 and appliances are weak 😔🔌

Book 3 approaches 👀📖 And I am sprinting toward it with the devotional fury of a Maze Runner boy performing his god-given duty 💪🔥:

to pick up the radio… and LAUNCH it 🚀📻💥

WIP Wednesday

I was tagged by @renmackree ! Thank you lady!

Have some angst! Lol

Stiles exhaled shakily. “He’s sick, Derek. My dad. He’s really… he’s sick.”

“I know,” Derek said softly, crouching down beside him so they were eye to eye. “But he’s also strong. And stubborn. Like someone else I know.”

Stiles tried to laugh, but it came out broken. “Yeah, well. Stubborn doesn’t kill cancer.”

“No,” Derek agreed. “But it fights like hell.”

There was a silence between them, heavy but not uncomfortable. Stiles leaned forward, pressing his palms to his eyes.

“I don’t know how to do this. I don’t know how to just… sit and wait while he suffers. What if I lose him, Derek?”

“You won’t,” Derek said quietly. Then, after a pause: “But if you do—if the worst happens—I’ll be here. You won’t go through it alone.”

That was the thing about Derek. He didn’t promise easy things. Didn’t sugarcoat reality. But when he said something, he meant it. Every word carried weight.

Who to tag who to tag hmmm! Welp I’ll throw some names out sorry if you’ve been tagged previously!
