It just occurred to me how bizarre Peter/Stiles or Peter/Chris or even worse Peter/Chris/Stiles would be for Derek. My siblings got the heebie-jeebies at the idea that I wrote x-rated fanfic let alone did x-rated shit. Derek must have a full breakdown every time he hears Peter hit on them especially given that they must spend the majority of their time together as a pack strategizing. With werewolf hearing he can deffo hear the banging going on.
Like imagine Derek watching Stiles and Peter's convo over bank blueprints like a third wheel and just being like "Are you guys done flirting cause people are being held hostage here?"
Just Derek slamming his hands on the dining table and yelling "Stop eye fucking the brother of the bitch that burnt our house down!" And Chris gets all defensive and Peter makes it worse, ya know, for the hate sex.
Just Scott turning to Peter going "You can't fuck my best friend he's half your age! He's doesn't make good decisions! He's using you to compensate for his absent father!"
Derek showing up in Stiles bedroom in the middle of the night whisper yelling "You can't date my uncle! He's twice your age! He's a murderer and traumatized!"
"The Chasms Between" (E) by alexenglish | 15,124 | Stiles has come to the terms with the fact that him and Derek are never going to be together in this life.They have way too many unresolved issues. Besides, Derek doesn't want him, he knows that much.
"I can smell it on your skin (I bet I can taste it in your blood)" 🔒 (E) by brokentoy | 10,792 | Stiles’ cover is blown the day Derek gets hit by Allison’s arrow.
"Lest the Fire Consume" (E) by the_ragnarok | 10,653 | Five times Derek recognized his mate, and the time Stiles recognized him in return.
"Mix and Match" 🔒 (E) by Jerakeen | 6,141 | Stiles walks into the Beacon Hills alpha-omega mixer with a smile on his face and three condoms in his wallet.
"Now Until the End" (M) by Dira Sudis | 17,737 | "Why the hell did you do that?" Derek demanded. "Why would you bond with me? You were going to leave me for dead, you didn't want anything to do with helping me." "Okay, first of all, that was like two hours ago and I've grown a lot as a person since then," Stiles said.
"Nothing Short Of Perfect" (E) by GotTheSilver | 27,019 | “Let me get this straight,” his dad says. “You’re telling me a witch told Derek and yourself that you could be destined to be together and now Derek will be going to college with you?” Stiles shrugs, resting his hands on his legs to stop himself from fidgeting. “That’s about it, yep.”
"What Fresh Twilight Bullshit Is This?" (E) by isthatbloodonhisshirt | 196,137 | A shadow appeared above him at the passenger side door and he winced at the sound of tearing metal before the door was ripped clean off. He stared up dizzily at the man bearing down on him from the other side of the car, looking terrified and reaching in to rip through the seatbelt. It was him. His stalker. The guy following him around town and sneaking into his bedroom at night.
"Like a Melody (it won't leave my head)" (T) by Jerakeen | 7,991 | Stiles doesn't notice the constant buzzing in his head until it's gone.
"In Which Laura Is Never Going To Let Derek Live This Down" (T) by Omimouse | 1,587 | A soulmate fic where you’ve got “Help! Save me!” on your wrist. So you do the martial arts classes, and ROTC, and get a concealed carry permit, you are READY, you are SO up for this… and then one day you’re at a friend’s house, and someone comes pounding down the stairs laughing and ducks behind you and goes “Help! Save me!” and that’s how you find out your soulmate was escaping a tickle fight.
"Unmapped" 🔒 (E) by Jerakeen | 11,357 | "I don't think anyone would choose not having a Guide," Scott reasons calmly. Stiles knows that. Of course he does. His mother was a Guide. His father's a Sentinel. His best friend is a Sentinel. It's just that this guy coming into their town like he's somehow better than the whole department all by himself... it rubs him the wrong way. Stiles is protective of the people he loves, and the Beacon Hills Sheriff's Department is like the headquarters for Stiles' Favorite People Ever. "I'm just saying," Stiles says. "You guys could've handled this without whatshisface and his tight pants."
"You Fit Me Better" 🔒 (NR) by Jerakeen | 5,149 | It's only been eight months since he started having the dreams, but he's already cracking. He's heard of people living thirty, forty years with them, unable to find the one, complete the bond.... He doesn't know if he could do it. The euphoric, in-love feeling that used to carry into his day now hurts. It feels like someone's ripping it out of his chest every morning and he's bleeding, all day, until he's asleep again and he is there.
"Cloaked in Gold" (E) by kaistrex | 57,859 | When son of the Alpha, Derek Hale, ends up in his bed in heat, Stiles decides to use it to his advantage and secure the Bite for his sick stepbrother. As he and his family are welcomed into the Hale pack, Stiles grows closer to Derek than he'd ever dreamed he'd get, but with the fanged Soulbite of a born wolf on Derek's neck, he knows he's just setting himself up for heartbreak. Derek has a Soulmate out there, and it definitely isn't Stiles.
"Everything's Made to be Broken" (M) by weathervaanes | 7,228 | Everybody gets a name, inscribed in a color over the left side of their chest. It seems like a good system, guaranteeing that there will be someone who loves you, who you will get to love in return for years to come. The only problem is that that's not actually how it always works out.
"Worth Waiting For" 🔒 (T) by yodasyoyo | 3,878 | Stiles slumps further in his desk chair, and stares disconsolately out of his bedroom window. Perhaps he should be celebrating. After all, this afternoon a soulmark appeared on his wrist revealing the name of his soulmate. He has a soulmate. Fuck. He scrubs one hand across his face. This is a disaster.
"love is war, but sometimes you win" (T) by Jmeelee | 5,903 | Stiles spares Derek a glance, pitying smile falling short of shrewd, contemplative eyes that sparkle when they catch the dappled sunlight. “The universe engraves a name on our skin, my friend. If it was meant to be private, we’d have the name on our ass.” Derek bristles. They are not friends—at least, not yet. At the rate they’re going, probably never. “I’m trying to protect my best friend, dude. Questions aren’t illegal.”
"Maybe" 🔒 (E) by loserchildhotpants | 11,513 | Then Professor Hagen partnered them for some sort of comparative discussion, and when they ran out of things to say, and Stiles was quite sure this was the only circumstance in which Derek would even acknowledge his existence, he awkwardly asked, “Hey, so… uhm… could I… go down on you after class?”
"third time's the charm" 🔒 (T) by stilinski | 4,900 | Stiles stares at the marks, twisting his arm to look at Lydia's rose, faded but still there in the same way as Scott's wolf is. He'd wondered for the longest time if there was something wrong with him, if there was a reason he collected marks when the people they belonged to didn't.
"I Could Find My Way Back" (M) by entanglednow | 6,250 | Stiles grits his teeth. "Dude, I don't want to be bound to Derek," he says flatly. "You be bound to Derek."
"spice up your life!" 🔒 (T) by callunavulgari | 1,890 | “I said,” the girl drawls, setting her elbow down in a saucer of ketchup and grimacing. “That this whole soulmate thing is fucking stupid. You’re supposed to find someone based off of the music they’re listening to? How would you even know what was really stuck in your head and what was in theirs? It’s complete shit.” Derek, who has had everything from Dancing Queen to the Barney theme song stuck in his head all night, winces, and says abruptly, “I think my soulmate is in middle school.”
"Oh my (let me look at those eyes)" (E) by Gorgeousgreymatter | 41,359 | A few months ago, he might’ve been able to solve this with some force—a little man-handling, a snarl, a glimpse of teeth. But he looks at Stiles’s broken face, knows he’s seen too much horror and blood and evil, the whole Big Bad Wolf routine is just going to fall flat. Because Derek looks at Stiles and he doesn’t carry himself like a teenager anymore. He carries himself like a soldier.
"Ssshhh! (or the voice in my head will have to shout)" (E) by mirrorkill | 20,288 | Things in Beacon Hills are always weird, but Deputy Derek Hale is pretty damn sure he's getting the brunt of this week's insanity. There's a serial killer in town getting their kicks by posing people weirdly and maybe the local coven is to blame. His mom's setting up his sister with his new boss's cute son. There's some guy talking in his head.
"Bite Down Hard" (E) by kurikuri | 25,730 | Secret Service Agent Derek Hale accidentally gets bonded to First Son Stiles Stilinski. Oops.
"Strip Poker" (T) by kaistrex | 4,267 | When Stiles’ Soulbite manifests on his neck and makes it look like he’s been mauled by an animal, he takes to spending most of his time hiding it in the preserve. It would be the perfect haven if it wasn’t for Derek Hale being such a creeper.
"The Life Expectancy of a Fluorescent Bulb" 🔒 (M) by suburbanmotel | 10,492 | Long before the boy knew, the wolf knew. The wolf knew what he wanted because it was bred in his bones. He knew the boy was his but the boy didn’t know it yet, because the boy was injured and sleeping.
"Something With Explosions" 🔒 (T) by suburbanmotel | 5,027 | Derek has become, for lack of a better word, untethered. Unmoored in time and space, flitting here and there and back again. It’s unnerving, disorienting, terrifying, educational. Apparently he missed a lot of things the first time around.
"Happily Ever After" (G) by all-or-nothing-baby | 1,852 | He'd recognise that voice anywhere; would know it in a sea of a thousand others. Derek slowly turned on his heel to find its owner sitting in his favourite tree.
"Through Myself and Back Again" 🔒 (G) by Green | 2,808 | Stiles knows he needs a ground ('an anchor', he hears an old memory whisper), help to pull the thing back so he doesn't destroy… well, everything. If Derek hadn't reached out, Stiles probably would have burned and burned until nothing was left.
"Red, Red, Red" 🔒 (E) by loserchildhotpants | 9,460 | “What?” “Your tattoo.” “What about it?” “Just… it’s weird, I’ve been - uh. You ever, like, dream of something? Something you’ve never seen before, but then you see it out in the world?”
"The Nose Knows" 🔒 (E) by WhoopsOK | 5,454 | “I’m not watching Stilinski have this crisis,” Jackson exclaims suddenly, standing to brush past him, the others turning to follow in spite of Derek shooting them panicked looks. “This smell is gonna make me puke.” “What smell? Wait, what crisis?” Stiles says, but actually he sort of does want Jackson to leave, he wants to be alone with Derek. He still hasn’t adjusted to his senses being so… well, sensitive, and everyone’s scent is competing with the one he really wants. He’d have to get close enough to touch him, to bury his face in his throat to block out all other scents, and that’s really all he wants right now.
"All My Kingdoms Turn to Sand" 🔒 (E) by elisera | 6,477 | The real question is what Stiles wants. If he’s looking forward to seeing Derek again because they’ll complete what they started a long time ago or if Stiles is nervous because he’s feeling apprehensive. There’s a real possibility that he told the pack to finally send Derek up in order to tell him thanks, but no thanks. A lot can happen in six years; people change and grow apart and it isn’t like they were allowed to talk.
"One Thread" 🔒 (M) by RurouniHime | 11,599 | In the middle of the night, his dad comes into the room and crawls onto the bed behind him, easing Stiles into the vee of his legs. He settles back against the headboard with a groan and doesn’t say anything for a long time. Stiles wraps his arms around one of his dad’s legs, presses his cheek to warm flannel, and tries to be still. “Oh, kid,” his dad exhales. His hand comes down on the side of Stiles’ neck and his fingers press gently. “I never wanted you to know this pain.”
"And I Never Thought I'd Ever Say Forever" (M) by suchfun | 31,844 | "The TiMER is a gift." He says it automatically, because that's what his mom says. That's how he was brought up. That's what he's supposed to think. He used to believe it, back when he was sixteen and idealistic, before he actually got his TiMER, back when he was so sure that his soulmate would be Paige.
"An Unpredictable Amount of Turtles" (T) by skoosiepants | 5,942 | Stiles says, “I have a five year plan. A five year plan to popularity that will tank the minute I meet this guy.” “I feel like you’re exaggerating,” Scott says, but Scott has a katana-wielding badass waiting for him at the other end of the rainbow, and Stiles has terrariums.
"When the Universe Comes Knocking (It’s Polite to Open the Door)" (M) by isthatbloodonhisshirt | 135,402 | It was like a door he’d nailed shut in his brain suddenly exploded open, all of his past confusion and anger and hurt and adoration flooding out at once. Stiles? Was it actually Stiles?! Stiles, the guy he’d had a crush on for fucking years growing up. The guy who’d been an absolute dick to him their whole last year of high school. The guy who’d told him he loved him in a dirty men’s bathroom on prom night while drunk and upset because he thought Kira was Derek’s girlfriend.
"This Ship Will Carry Our Bodies Safe to Shore" (G) by notevenwriting | 6,350 | Hey, it’s okay. I’m okay. When those words appeared scrawled against the soft inside of his wrist, Derek’s first thought was that his mate and him would be involved in some kind of accident and they’d died in front of him. The thought used to scare him when he was a kid, the thought of being responsible for someone’s last minutes, of holding someone’s hand, brushing soft strands of hair out of their eyes and assuring them everything would be just fine made his heart race and forced his wolf into the surface.
"marked" (G) by elisela | 2,742 | “I don’t have a name,” was one of the first things Stiles ever said to him, somewhere in between “do your eyebrows always do that?” and “come on, one coffee can’t hurt.” And now the memory of it is all Derek can hear over the pounding of his own heart in his head, a drumbeat that sounds like he’s being marched to his own execution.
"Look The Other Way" (T) by anonymous | 3,692 | Becoming Derek’s emissary came with a heavy price; victories always do.
"Three Marks" (M) by sanam | 113,736 | And then there was pain again, but this time it was in only three places—his arm, below his clavicle, and next to his heart, all on the left side. It felt like the skin was being sliced apart, ripped open, flayed off— And suddenly it was done. Derek looked across the room and saw the boy on the floor, looking about as bad as Derek felt.
"not what you can predict" 🔒 (T) by theyhadcookies | 3,901 | Some time between Peter biting Scott, the Kanima, Gerard Argent, and Deucalion and Jennifer almost tearing the town apart, getting kidnapped and seeing his mother again for the first time, Derek met his soul mate. He has absolutely no idea who it could be.
"Safety in Silence" (M) by Survivah | 66,901 | It's perfectly understandable. Even Derek wouldn't want to be Derek's soulmate.
"Safe at Anchor" 🔒 (T) by Jerakeen | 11,371 | "He needs... grounding," Deaton explains, which helps Stiles not at all. "Grounding? Like electricity?" He tries to take a step back instinctively, but Derek wobbles on his feet and Stiles ends up steadying him with an arm around his waist, pulling them even closer together. "What's happening? Deaton? What am I doing?"
"Wayward and Down" (E) by amberography | 32,331 | That time it took not one, but two separate troll attacks and a malevolent coven of witches for Stiles to figure out how he felt about Derek.
"An (im)Perfect System" (T) by theroguesgambit | 7,903 | Stiles has always felt pretty lucky about his soul mark. After all, how many conversations tend to start with “This is private property”? (Apparently more than you'd think.)
"Second Chances" (G) by rootbeer | 2,624 | A lot of times the ‘markings’ were common, simple things you said to strangers all the time. 'Excuse me'; 'thank you'; 'hello'. Some got extremely romantic things like 'it’s you isn’t it? I’ve been waiting for you' or 'Wow you’re really pretty'. And they were always the first words their soulmate would ever say to them. Of course, having 'You are the fucking worst kind of person in the world' tattooed down your side, didn’t bode well. How fucked up was Stiles Stilinski that even his fucking Soulmate hated him? High School had been a special kind of hell when all the kids learned what his tattoo said—despite his best efforts to keep it a secret.
"Everything's Made to be Broken" (M) by weathervaanes | 7,228 | Everybody gets a name, inscribed in a color over the left side of their chest. It seems like a good system, guaranteeing that there will be someone who loves you, who you will get to love in return for years to come. The only problem is that that's not actually how it always works out.
"To Be Worthy Of Hope" (T) by alocalband | 7,482 | In which Derek is secretly pining, Stiles is oblivious to both Derek’s feelings as well as his own, and any personal growth that happens in the meantime is completely reluctant.
"Your Pain is My Pain (So Stop Being So F#@$ing Clumsy!)" (T) by isthatbloodonhisshirt | 7,878 | “Derek is not my soulmate,” Stiles insisted. “I mean, look at him!” He motioned Derek. “He’s all grumpy and sourwolfish, and I mean, yeah, he’s great to look at, with the stubble and the working out, and face of a God sculpted out of stone and all that, and arms that could definitely carry me damsel-in-distress style whenever he wanted and what was I talking about again?” He turned back to Talia. “I think I lost my train of thought.”
••••••
"this plan will work" (T) by unavee | 5,573 | Getting rid of a soulbond is more difficult than Derek expected.
"Give you that thing you can't even imagine" 🔒 (E) LunaCanisLupus_22 | 11,014 | The one where mateless Derek thinks no omega can affect him like they do other alphas and he's about to find out he's very, very wrong.
Peter/Stiles
"our hungers appeased (our heartbeats becoming slow)" (T) by willowcrowned | 6,155 | It had been Stiles who’d suggested it, offhand, while sitting on the steps of the Hale house, watching Derek try to wrangle his pups into something closer to controlled. He hadn’t been looking at Peter, but he’d been watching him anyways, and he’d seen—something in Peter that had made him recommend Peter get out of Beacon Hills with only half the malice that Peter had been expecting from him.
"put your mark on my soul, show me you need me" 🔒 (NR) by Areiton | 2,941 | Soulmarks appear in time of need. Not yours--your soulmate’s. When they needed you, the mark would bloom on your skin in inky black, a puzzle piece that left tiny clues to the person fate chose for you.
"Isn't This A Little Soulless?" (E) by anonymous | 6,714 | Peter is twenty-eight years old and content in never finding his soul mate. He has only recently broken something off with a partner, and is once again enjoying the opportunity to be single. A lot of people got… Strange, when they were with someone with a soul mark. They either felt like you were going to leave them at any moment for your soul mate, or that you must be the Settle Down type. They hadn’t proved to be a good match in the end. Peter had dated a few people with marks of their own. It took the pressure off, when you both knew that really they didn’t mean anything.
"Our Imperfect World" 🔒 (E) by taylorpotato | 11,524 | Not long after his eighteenth birthday, Peter wakes up with a small, white scar on his finger. Most people are born with scars that match their soulmate's, or get one in their early childhood. Peter thought he just wasn't meant to have anybody. The sudden arrival of his soulmate (in Beacon Hills, no less) is just the beginning of his life's complications.
"Not Stella" 🔒 (T) by Fidelius | 2,596 | Stiles isn't Stella. He never was. Not even when people thought he was. He's Stiles. His biggest hope is that his soul mate's wrist says his name. His biggest fear is that his soul mate's wrist says her name.
••••••
Chris/Peter
"La Bête du Argent" (E) by Whreflections | 38k+ WIP | When Chris is a boy, it becomes very clear that the prominent soulmate tattoo on his arm depicts an alpha werewolf. If he'd come from a pack, or even a family with no knowledge of the supernatural, it wouldn't have mattered, not really, but that wasn't his fate. He's an Argent, and a werewolf's mate, and those contradictions have no place in the same body, not in his father's opinion.
"You Are Whatever a Moon Has Always Meant" (E) by lavenderlotion | 3,447 | Peter was quiet for a moment, caught up in staring at Christopher's beard and the way it was shot with the grey. The lines around his eyes seemed to be etched deeper than they ever had been before, and his eyes were dark, empty in a way Peter had never seen on him. He took a breath and told himself that it wasn't weakness if it was only them. “You're my mate, Christopher.”
“Our Other Lives” (M) by TriDom | 1,881 | Everyone is born with their soulmate’s last words to them tattooed on their skin. It was the first sentence Chris learned to read, the first words he learned to write. He would never call himself a romantic, but through everything, those black letters kept him grounded and gave him hope.
“Your Scars are Mine” (M) by TriDom | 6,454 | When the youngest of a pair of soulmates turns 21, their scars appear on each other’s bodies. When Peter turns 21, his previously flawless hide is suddenly covered in scars.
••••••
Derek/Stiles & Peter/Stiles
"Whatever Works" (E) by KouriArashi | 61,929 | The problem with having your soulmate's first words to you tattooed on your arm is knowing your whole life that you're fated to be with a jerk. It's enough to make Stiles want to date other people ... which is how he winds up dating his soulmate's nephew.
••••••
Stiles/Jackson
"Link Share, Mark As Complete" (T) by red_crate | 914 | He can't believe this is how he ends up meeting his soul mate.
"I'll Dissolve When The Rain Pours In, When The Nightmares Take Me" (T) by clotpolesonly | 38,749 | When Stiles finally managed to contort himself the right way without causing injury, he stared at the words on his inner thigh. And then he stared some more, long enough for the water to grow cold around him, wondering if this was part of the dream. Finally he decided that it had to be real only because his subconscious was not creative enough to come up with this. There, in freckle-brown letters stark against pale skin, was the name Jackson Whittemore.
••••••
I keep my lists updated, which doesn't affect reblogs, so if you want the most recent list, see my pinned post.
While Derek and his wolfly Betas go on patrol, Stiles, Chris and Peter staying back at the loft together to do research. Not because Chris and Peter have to watch and protect poor, fragile, breakable human Stiles, but because Derek asked Stiles to watch Chris and Peter.
Because the Alpha may understand that he needs their knowledge to take down the Alpha Pack and Darach, but he doesn't trust the Argent not to hurt the Betas and he doesn't trust Peter not to try and manipulate the Betas.
He does, however, trust Stiles. He doesn't think Chris would hurt the only human member of the pack and he knows Stiles is too smart to be manipulated by Peter.
So, while Chris and Peter think they're protecting and watching Stiles, it's really Stiles who's keeping an eye on them.
(Derek Hale, unintentional matchmaker. He's gonna live to regret that one, for sure.)
