“Here it’s safe, here it’s warm. Here the daisies guard you from every harm… Here your dreams are sweet, and tomorrow brings them true. Here is the place where I love you.”

The song ends and Theo still feels the tremble of its chords in his heart as he lies there, broken and silent, heart slowed by the presence of the anchor who doesn’t know that he came to be Theo’s only anchor. The stillness around them bends and reshapes itself around the synchrony of their heavy breathing.

“You used to sing that song to me,” Liam says quietly. Like he’s tasting the truth on his tongue. “When I had nightmares. Real or not real?”

Theo’s heart jumps. His throat is still stopped up, but Liam deserves an answer. G-d, he deserves all the answers, just for trying this hard to come back to himself.

Or: Liam, Theo, the aftermath of the Games, and everything that followed in the war of their lives.

Liam shocks him when his grip doesn’t gentle, but he says, “I don’t think so. I think I’ve got a better idea,” and squeezes his fingers round Theo’s neck and lunges forward to smash their mouths together.

9 intrigues me

I put a longer snippet up earlier, but here's a shorter bit from Void!Theo that is at this point, the very beginning.

Even from across a noisy restaurant, Liam can still hear Theo’s laughter flitting through the crowd.  He makes his way back to where Theo is sitting at the bar, elbows propped on the counter so he can lean forward to hear Hikari.  Meeting the kitsune was a matter of pure luck, especially since their quest to find a more secure place to stash the Nemeton-made container was going nowhere.  Originally, Scott sent them to spend a few weeks scouting out allies and places to keep supernatural artifacts; over half a year later, they’ve picked up multiple shifts at the restaurant, and Theo spends far too much time showing off how fast he can learn a new language.

Liam slides into the seat next to Theo, who’s absentmindedly swirling his drink while Hikari fills him in on their run in with a small werewolf pack earlier in the day.  He doesn’t interrupt her, but offers Liam a small smile when he sits.

By the time the restaurant settles for the evening, the trio are alone at the bar, tiredly chatting while they wait for the rest of the patrons to shuffle out for the night.  Tomorrow’s meeting with one of Deaton’s old druid friends who offered to take the Nogitsune’s wooden prison is looming over their heads, but for now, they can enjoy the cool, rainy evening.

Hikari drawing her sword from under the counter is the first indication that is anything but true.

omg i wanna ask about ALL your wip's but if I had to choose which one I'm burning to know more about they would be "wreck the hunter," "void!Theo" and "resurrected Dread Doctors" 👀

The currently untitled post-canon Thiam fic where the Dread Doctors are resurrected and everyone (mostly Theo) has a real bad time.

Every hair on Theo’s body is standing straight up on edge, chills shooting up his spine with every footsteps he hears echoing in the distance.  At his side, Liam stops talking about his math homework, suddenly aware that the chimera’s instincts have kicked into high gear.

“What is it?”

Theo numbly shakes his head without thinking.  The next step he hears is closer, heavier, metallic; overlaid with the clanking of metal and heavy, mechanical breathing.  He’s frozen in place, so much so he can’t move a limb, even when Liam gently pushes.  They know there should be no one in these tunnels.  Theo buried every entrance so no one could get to the Dread Doctors lab.  Even if they were gone, he refused for anyone to follow their directions on creating true evil.

The true evil they tried to corrupt him into.  He never met their goals, never lived up to their expectations.  From the moment he met them, he was a failure.

“Failure.”

Theo’s head snaps up, eyes flaring gold entirely out of his control.  “Did you hear that?”

“Failure.”

By the way fear seeps into Liam’s eyes, he hears it that time.  Without hesitation, he grabs Theo by the arm, giving him the push to shake off the spell and move.  Even then, Liam doesn’t let go, instead drops his hand to clutch Theo’s.  It’s what he needs to keep going, to get out.

“Failure.”

They stop again.  Nausea creeps up to Theo’s throat, every inch of his body burning when he hears a familiar screeching.  Not from where the first two echoes of voices were, but from behind.  Back where they were, where Theo would give anything not to turn back to now.

Liam’s face pinches, almost like he’s in pain.  “What is that noise?”

Theo closes his eyes and lets the sound cloud his senses.  It doesn’t strike him until it becomes loud enough that his ears ring.  He doesn’t open his eyes, desperate to keep tears from falling or from forcing himself to turn to face the darkness.

That screeching haunted his dreams for years.  It led him to the Dread Doctors in the first place, and it’s the sound he came to know as a reminder he did something wrong.  The Surgeon would drag that heavy cane on the ground while he walked, not because he had to, but so Theo would sit in terror, knowing what was coming.

“Oh fuck.”

The tremor in Liam’s voice is what finally gets Theo to clench his jaw, open his eyes and glance over his shoulder.  His body can’t decide whether to throw up, pass out or cry; instead it freezes again.  The hand on his own is the only thing anchoring him to reality.  Liam squeezes gently.

“What do we do?” he murmurs softly.

At the end of the hall, underneath blinking and broken lights are the three figments of Theo’s dark past.  Clad in long dark coats, bronze and metal plated masks, the hissing and whirring of their breathing and movement cutting through the otherwise eerie silence of the tunnels.  In front is The Surgeon, gold inlay of his cane catching the light.  He can feel the phantom graze of the metal as it hits him, over and over and over and-

“Theo, we need to get out of here.”

He tries to release Liam’s hand, but the beta doesn’t let go.  “You have to run, I…”  He can’t seem to tear his gaze from the Dread Doctors; they’re walking slowly, but Theo knows he can’t outrun them.  He’s never been able to.  “I’ll be the bait.”

Liam pulls his hand hard enough to force Theo to turn, looking away from the doctors.  His blue eyes are fierce, jaw clenched.  “You are never being the bait again.  We both make it out of here.”

He takes a step away, to run.  A low rumble stops him dead in his tracks.  

“Theo Raeken.”

And with that, he knows the life he fought so hard to get back is over.

number 3 for the wip game >:)

Raeken's 11, aka the Teen Wolf version of Ocean's 11, featuring the pack as heist members; Theo as Danny Ocean, Isaac as Rusty, and more. The $160 million is just an added bonus on top of proving himself to Liam and winning back the love of his life.

Isaac whirls on Theo the instant the door slams, and he prepares himself to get ruthlessly shouted at.  If only Nolan knew to keep his mouth shut about Liam, and keep the little tidbit about him and Peter meeting to himself.  That way, he wouldn’t have a completely pissed off Isaac pacing around the room.

“Let me explain.”

He stops moving.  “Oh you have an explanation for this?  I’d love to hear how coincidental it is that the casinos you chose to hit are all owned by the man using the ex you’ll never get over.”  His gaze drops to where Theo is unconsciously twisting the ring around his finger, freezing when Isaac notices.  “We can’t take down Peter Hale if you have a personal stake in his destruction.”

“It won’t get in the way,” he answers tightly.  He might’ve picked the targets for that reason - because of Liam - but that doesn’t mean they can’t still clear out the Bellagio’s vault and walk out richer than every single person who’s made Theo’s life hell.

Isaac sighs.  “Liam called off the wedding because he couldn’t share his life with a man who spends his nights stealing and conning his way into what he wants.  Do you really think you’ll win him back by robbing the person who funds his entire museum program?  You're not that stupid.”

“I don’t need to win him back, I just want to keep Peter far away from him.”

They’ve known each other for long enough for Isaac to know that he’s not lying, just not accepting what he wants, what he lost.  

“Nolan knows every step of the plan, I’ve already instructed him to take your place.”  

Theo splutters his protest, but shuts up the second his right-hand approaches.  Isaac plants a hand on his chest and pushes until his back hits the counter.  The hard line of the expensive marble reminds him of what they’ve already spent for this, and how much they can’t afford to fail.

“Did the rest of the crew agree on that?”

“That and-” he bites back a smirk, “-if you don’t manage to ruin this, the rest of us get to ruin you.”

Heat rushes to his cheeks and down his torso, prickling where Isaac’s palm is still pressed.  “Promise?”

“As long as we get a hundred and sixty million dollars, you can bet on it.”

Hmm they all sound so good but I’m gonna go with: wreck the hunter

wreck the hunter aka the follow up to run and hide

Liam drags Theo through another set of doors, moving faster than Theo’s battered body can keep up.  The hunter doesn’t stop, checking around every corner, hand tightly clenched around his crossbow.  Whether or not this is a ploy to catch him off guard, he doesn’t care.  Getting out of the cage is enough for now.

“What are you doing?” he hisses at Liam, who shoots him an annoyed glare over a shoulder.  “You shot me, why are you helping me now?”

The hunter shoves him forward into a room, closing the door with a soft click.  He finally lets go of his hand, fixing his crossbow with an expertise a high schooler shouldn’t have.  Outside the room is yelling, boots thundering across the marble floors.  They’re looking for him, they know he’s out.

“I know what happens when Miss Monroe finds out her hunters don’t have the stomach to carry out her plans,” Liam says.  “If I go against them openly, they’ll kill my parents, but I can’t watch them torture you again.”

The next door he opens leads outside, sun lighting the cuts and bruises all across Theo’s arms.  That alone seems to make Liam even more uncomfortable.  He can’t find it in himself to care.  For the first time in days, the whole world is at his fingertips and he can run through it how he pleases.  Not strapped down, poked and prodded and burned by hunters who couldn’t care less about the human part of him.

“If you tell anyone,” he trails off, knowing Theo hears the threat.

He rolls his eyes.  “You’ll kill me, yeah I know, best of luck.  It clearly didn’t work out for you this time, despite how much you claim to hate me-”

A hand threading through his hair and tugging him down cuts him off.  The kiss is anything but gentle, is the opposite of what Theo should want; yet, he fists his hand in Liam’s shirt and lets the hunter entirely invade his space.  It’s over as fast as it started, getting roughly shoved back, lips tingling and chest heaving.  

Liam doesn’t drop his gaze.  “If I see you again, I’ll fucking kill you.”

For the moment before he steps outside, leaving Liam and the hunters far behind, he pauses.  And in that second, all he can think about is how much he wants to kiss Liam again.

WIP ask game, 1 or 9 :)

From Void!Theo aka the Teen Wolf: The Movie rewrite featuring Nogistune Theo, Thiam and all the things I wished were in the movie but weren't.

The haunted look on Scott and Stiles’ faces when they step into the room only goes to confirm his worst fears.  Theo is still unconscious, tied to the chair.  With his head drooped to one side, hair swept across an eye, he looks so innocent.  So much more peaceful than ten minutes ago, when he was trying his very best to tear Liam’s throat out with his claws.  If his pounding heart wasn’t still hiked up with anxiety and adrenaline, and Theo’s scent being so wrong, he might point out to his alpha how much like them kidnapping him after becoming a werewolf this is.  In that case, it might be funny.

How Stiles ducks his head, rubbing at the back of his neck, is anything but funny.  His question is so quiet, Liam barely hears it.  

Is he absolutely sure?  Fuck, he wishes he wasn’t.

“When the box with the…” he pauses, the word nogitsune feeling like poison in his mouth.  “When it was released, Hikari used two of her tails to track it down.  The Oni acted differently to Theo than to the rest of us.  Then he tried to kill me.”

Stiles groans.  “None of you thought to call me until now?” he demands.  “Scott-”

“I didn’t want you near it,” the alpha returns.  “I know you don’t like Theo, but you’re the only one who’s beaten this thing before.”  His eyes flicker over to the heavy chains holding Theo’s prone body to his dining chair.  There’s something there, a scent akin to guilt, but it fades when Stiles takes a few cautious steps forward.  

“Stiles.”

The voice sends chills down Liam’s spine, and stops both Stiles and Scott in their tracks.  It’s Theo speaking, but not the one who’s gained their trust all these years.  It’s not the chimera’s eyes who meet Liam’s.

“It’s been a long time.  I’ve missed our game.”

“What does it mean?” Isaac asked, turning to look at Derek even as he interrupted Stiles. “Why are they blue?” “You had blue eyes,” Scott added. “Before, I mean. Before you became an Alpha.” “The color of a werewolf’s eyes depends on… certain choices that they make,” Derek finally answered. He spoke slowly, as if he were considering his words carefully. “Red is the sign of an Alpha, and most Betas have gold eyes.” “... And what about blue eyes?” Stiles prompted after a few moments in silence. “If a shifter has blue eyes, it means they’ve taken the life of an innocent.”
