THEME ANNOUNCEMENT!

Three things cannot long be hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.

This year we are trying something new with Sterek Week which is a week long, over arching, theme! The week long theme will be the Sun and the Moon.

What does the week long theme mean for you? More options! Each day you will have two related, but opposite themes that you can either choose from or combine into one work.

See below for each days themes with a handful of examples to show the difference!

Day 1 - October 25th: Open Secrets (Sun) / Hidden Truths (Moon) - Everyone knows they're a thing (but they're oblivious) vs they're dating but nobody knows. Also known supernatural world that no one really talks about vs hidden supernatural world.

Day 2 - October 26th: Domestic Bliss (Sun) / Love is Murder (Moon) - Domestic Bliss is about family, slice-of-life and established relationship vibes, while Love is Murder is dark, murder husbands, or crime-related.

Day 3 - October 27th: Applied Science (Sun) / Forbidden Magic (Moon) - This one is for those who would like to get creative with an AU in a sci-fi or fantasy setting.

Day 4 - October 28th: Canon Compliance (Sun) / What-if AU (Moon) - The first fills in the canon blanks, while the second takes canon in a new direction.

Day 5 - October 29th: Fluff and Firsts (Sun) / Dark Desires (Moon) - Fluff and Firsts is the wholesome theme... can be anything that brings the good vibes really. Dark Desires can be kink, dark, sexual, or evil in nature.

Day 6 - October 30th: Dealer's Choice (Sun) / Tarot Cards (Moon) - Dealer's Choice can be the wild card theme where you can choose anything or maybe write about them playing strip poker or going to Vegas. Tarot Cards - basically pick a tarot card and run with it.

Day 7 - October 31st: Autumn Adventures (Sun) / Trick or Treat (Moon) - Autumn Adventures could be maybe something outdoorsy, or getting a pumpkin spice latté; anything autumn related. Trick or Treat, of course, is the Halloween theme so anything Halloween related goes there.

We are so excited to see everything you all come up with!

October 25th: Sterek Week Day 1 - Open Secrets (Sun) / Hidden Truths (Moon)

The man who can keep a secret may be wise, but he is not half as wise as the man with no secrets to keep." –Edgar Watson Howe

Could Stiles and Derek be in a relationship to the shock of the pack - one that maybe they weren't even trying to hide? Or maybe the people of Beacon Hills really do know about the supernatural, they just aren't saying anything.

or

Derek has always been the king of privacy, but maybe Stiles is determined to discover the truth of what's going on with him. Or maybe there is more to Stiles than meets the eye, something Derek wants to uncover. On a lighter note, their hidden truth could be secret relationship they are keeping from the pack.

Whether those around them are just not talking about it or the truth really is hidden, we cannot wait to see what direction you take this.

October 26th: Sterek Week Day 2 - Domestic Bliss (Sun) / Love is Murder (Moon)

"If you love deeply, you're going to get hurt badly. But it's still worth it." - CS Lewis

Derek and Stiles deserve the happiest of endings and this is your chance to give it to them. Whether it be date night, a long-awaited vacation, or maybe the expansion of their family. Whatever it may be, show us a sneak peek of their happiest days.

or

People aren't always as they seem. Explore the darker side of Derek and Stiles, whether it be the harsh reality of dealing with the supernatural or full-blown murder husband territory. (Please make sure to tag any dark themes appropriately).

Use this theme to explore the brightest or darkest parts of Derek and Stiles's daily lives.

October 27th: Sterek Week Day 3 - Applied Science (Sun) / Forbidden Magic (Moon)

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." - Arthur C. Clarke

Maybe Stiles is a dedicated scientist determined to find a "cure" to being a werewolf? Or maybe there is no supernatural element at all, just a couple of nerdy science boys. Maybe they live in an advanced, futuristic world. This is your chance to go all out with all your sci-fi dreams.

or

Is Stiles secretly full of magic? Maybe being a spark is a forbidden thing? Are werewolves magic creatures hiding in the dark? It's time to explore the darker side of the supernatural and magic.

What extreme lengths will the boys go to for each other? Whether it be through the lense of science or magic, show us what they' are working with.
