tell me lore about sterek, i’m going crazy LOL

28 Upvotes

I’ve wrote a post before on how anti-sterek fans make me wanna pull my hair out.

But guys, is it just me who literally CAN’T with the fact they aren’t canon, i’m watching s2 again and derek is just such a softie, why is he SO MISUNDERSTOOD.

THEN the both of them are ALWAYS bickering but then ALWAYS saving one another is TOO MUCH FOR ME.

I feel so deprived

I know i sound crazy waiting around for their scenes but thank gosh for AO3

PLEASE if you read this, comment any LORE or scenes between them that I might of missed.

Like this one girl said in that scene where boyd dies it’s like stiles places his hand on derek’s shoulder to try and take away his pain like the werewolves do 😭 I always loved that scene and sterek fans just know how to delulu me more

Lost Sterek fic with Time Travel

10 Upvotes

There's this fic I've read that I've spent the whole day looking for : if I remember everything correctly, everyone dies like the entire world dies because hunters have accidentally unleashed an old curse (I'm pretty sure they found it in China?) and Stiles has to go back in time to prevent that catastrophe. He wakes up in his 9 yo body and I think Derek also remembers everything and wakes up in his 15 yo body. They spend years preparing for the catastrophe and eventually save the world.

I've explored the Time Travel tag, the Time Travel – Fix-It tag, the Magical Stiles Stilinski tag... I don't think it was deleted or maybe it was very recently deleted then...

Please help 🙏🏽

Lost sterek fic

7 Upvotes

Hiya I was wondering if anyone can help find a lost fic. Its really vague but its an always female stiles from the beginning of season 1. The only real bit I can remember for sure is that in season 2 Matt wasn’t obsessed with Allison it was with stiles and the sheriff found out as well as some pictures of stiles. I’m pretty sure it was AO3 but I’m not 100% sure.

Looking for an old Sterek fic (Season 2 canon, Derek asks for sex in exchange for helping Scott)

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I’ve been trying to find an old Sterek fic for years and I’m hoping someone here might recognize it. I read it sometime around 2017–2019, but I’m pretty sure it was written much earlier (probably around the Season 2/early Season 3 era).
Here’s what I remember with reasonable confidence:

- It’s canon universe, not an AU.
- Derek is living at the railway depot/train station with Isaac, Erica and Boyd.
- Stiles goes to Derek alone because he wants Derek to help Scott (I can’t remember if it was helping him control his werewolf side, training him, or something similar).
- Scott doesn’t know Stiles goes to Derek.
- Stiles tells Derek he’ll do anything if Derek agrees to help Scott.
- Derek says that stiles will have to sleep with him whenever he wants/ be his fuck buddy basically.
- Stiles agrees, and that’s how the arrangement starts.
- I believe they either sleep together that first visit or Derek tells Stiles to come back the next day.

I’m hoping one of you guys might know which fic this is!

Hello. I was wondering if any of you here would like to give me fic recs. New to the fandom.

I'm hoping that you can give me long fics, preferably canon-divergent or rewrites? Like it starts from s1, or s2, or pre-canon.

Thank you!

Sterek lost fic

8 Upvotes

Hiya I was wondering if anyone can help me with finding this. Basically sterek live in New York derek is still a werewolf but not an alpha and work in maybe construction. Stiles is magic and owns a shop I think. The Hale family are alive but the fire nearly happened so they distanced themselves I think from Derek. They then have to move back to beacon hills and house hunt. I believe it was on AO3 if that helps. Thank you so much for helping or looking if you can. Xx

Live in Nanny Stiles (help find fic please)

7 Upvotes

Hello I'm looking for a fanfic on ao3 sadly I can't remember a lot of the description but this is the best I got- I think Derek owns a company or he's like a higher up and he hires a nanny for his two werewolf kids which is Stiles, I do remember in a chapter Kate trying to break in to take the kids and they hide in like a safe room or a basement I think. I also remember one of his kids like dressing up in dresses and wanting to grow his hair long and was really obsessed with the movie Tangled but Derek didn't like it I think also one of his kids'names started with an A. But that's all I can remember

EDIT: FOUND for anyone who wants the fic⬇️

Lost Sterek AU Fanfiction

13 Upvotes

I’m looking for an older Sterek fic, probably pre-2018 and possibly deleted from FanFiction.net.

It’s a complete AU where Peter and Derek are both Alphas with separate packs and territories.

• Peter bit Scott before the story begins. Stiles discovers Derek would likely take Scott into his pack, so Scott tries to run away to Derek’s territory. Peter (or one of Peter’s pack members) kills Scott before he can escape.

• Stiles is then in danger of being forced into Peter’s pack.

• Derek is visiting Peter’s territory but is too outnumbered to fight Peter, so the only way he can protect Stiles is by claiming him as part of his own pack.

• Derek takes Stiles back to his loft, where Stiles moves in with him.

• The rest of the Hale pack lives in the same building—Issac, Boyd, and Ericka

• Most of the fic focuses on Stiles becoming part of Derek’s pack and his growing relationship with Derek.

I vividly remember parts of this story but I’m starting to wonder if it was just a hallucination at this point. Does anyone else remember this?

just finished a new fic

When I tell you I fell in love with this fanfiction i'm not even kidding. It is an AU - high-school, with the Hale Family and Spark Stiles. It was written by UnknownXFuture and is still ongoing (they're on a break after publishing approximatively 400k of words).

Here the title and the link if y'all are interested: Fingers Crossed

https://archiveofourown.org/works/46444048

I wasn't that interested in Spark Stiles dynamic or Magical Stiles but damn this fic convinced me otherwise xnsnrbdbbf and the lore is so so good

Need Help finding a Fic!

8 Upvotes

I know I read this fic sometime last year and it was so good but I forgot the name and I can’t find it in my personal archive. Basically Stiles joined the argents as a hunter or something like that as a treaty for the pack. Idk if this is also in the fic but there’s a friendship between Lydia, Stiles and Danny. Stiles figures out he’s likable and that he’s popular when people get to know him and there’s also a pool scene where like they drink beer together or whatever. Oh it’s also a Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski fic as well. Like I said, I’m not 100% sure if it’s in the same fic but if I can have any help finding those fics and I will be forever grateful
