snow families (834 words) by Winchesterek Rating: General Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski Characters: Derek Hale, Stiles Stilinski, Original Child Character(s) Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Soulmates, Established Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski, Fluff, Holidays, Alternate Universe - Everyone Lives/Nobody Dies, Children's Author-Artist Stiles Stilinski, Firefighter Derek Hale, Parent Stiles Stilinski, Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski are Soulmates For @sterekfests Winter theme "let it snow", @sterekbingo Christmas square "snowman", @sterekweekly word "flurry", and @seasonaldelightsbingo WinterWonderlandBingo "free square".
Summary: There was a squeal and laughter to his right. Derek turned just in time to miss a flying snowball and see Hazel clinging to Stiles like a monkey, while Stiles tried to gather another snowball, presumably to throw at Derek. “You better run, Hale!” Stiles shouted but was laughing, even as Hazel gripped onto his arm and practically hung from it, preventing Stiles from throwing it at Derek.
Derek laughed as a flurry of snow assaulted his face and he shook his hair. It was finally snowing, real snow, and it was his favorite time of the year.
Plus, this year he wasn't alone. It was his first Christmas with Stiles and Hazel and Derek wanted it to be perfect. Christmas was only a few weeks away and he’d been secretly shopping for all of the things on Hazel’s list. She’d asked for an array of books, a bike, and a robot dog of all things. Because Stiles wouldn't let her have a puppy because she was too young.
Derek didn't think she was too young but he understood that Stiles didn't want to take care of a puppy and Hazel at the same time.
He hadn't asked Stiles to marry him yet, but he wanted to. He just wasn't sure how Stiles would feel because of Hazel. He was highly protective of his daughter and Derek loved Hazel as much as he loved Stiles. He wanted Hazel to be comfortable with the idea of them being a family. A real family. Not that he thought she’d protest.
There was a squeal and laughter to his right. Derek turned just in time to miss a flying snowball and see Hazel clinging to Stiles like a monkey, while Stiles tried to gather another snowball, presumably to throw at Derek.
“You better run, Hale!” Stiles shouted but was laughing, even as Hazel gripped onto his arm and practically hung from it, preventing Stiles from throwing it at Derek.
“I think Hazel has my back,” Derek replied, leaning down to collect his own snowball, squishing it in his hands.
Derek launched it at Stiles and Hazel released her father just as the snowball smacked Stiles in the face. Stiles fell back into the snow, but he was still laughing as he brushed the ice from his face.
“Unfair!” Stiles shouted but didn't get up.
Derek walked over to Stiles and looked down at him, smirking. “You look like you’ll survive.”
Stiles sighed as he continued to lay there like he’d given up. Hazel took that moment to jump on top of him, which caused Stiles to grunt from the impact. Then he tickled her and she laughed and laughed.
“Okay, okay!” Hazel shouted and rolled off him, laying next to Stiles in the snow.
“Well now I feel like I’ve been left out,” Derek replied as he watched them.
Stiles chuckled and started moving his arms and legs in the snow, Hazel following behind him as they made snow angels.
“We should make a snowman!” Hazel said excitedly, sitting up and shaking her long red hair. It didn't help at all with the snow that was stuck to her. “A snow family!”
Derek helped her up and Stiles huffed, getting up on his own. “I think we can make a snow family,” Stiles agreed. “There’s plenty of snow.”
Hazel ran off and Derek chuckled, turning to pull Stiles close and pressing a kiss to his lips. “Hey.”
“Hey,” Stiles replied, kissing Derek again and wrapping his arms around his neck. “You’re looking mighty sexy today,” Stiles teased.
Derek laughed, his arms looping around Stiles’ waist. “How long do you think it’ll take to build a snow family?”
Stiles smirked, leaning in to rub his nose against Derek’s. “I don't know…it might take a while.” He smiled and kissed him again, longer this time, softly and sweetly. “So I think you should marry me so we have plenty of time to make a fleet of snow families.”
Derek’s heart clutched in his chest, trying to make sure that he’d heard correctly. Stiles was asking him to marry him. The only thing Derek could say was, “Yes, absolutely.”
He kissed Stiles, one hand moving up to grip the back of his neck, feeling Stiles melt against him as Derek’s heart swelled with love. “Whenever you want, wherever you want, however you want.”
“Yeah?” Stiles asked, smiling against Derek’s lips. “Even if I want to make a break for Vegas?”
Derek chuckled. “We can pack Hazel up and make a family trip of it if you want, but I have a feeling that you’d want a big wedding, fancy suits and all.”
“Well, you’re not wrong.” Stiles looked in the direction Hazel went when he heard laughing and little voices talking excitedly. “Looks like Hazel’s made some friends.”
Derek squeezed Stiles and kissed him once more. “Come on… before she adopts them and then we have more snow families to make.”
Stiles laughed and held Derek’s hand as they walked together through the falling snow. They might not have ever thought they’d find their soulmates, but Derek was happy they had. He wasn't sure where his life would be if he hadn't found Stiles. Probably wrapped up in his work and nothing else.
Derek released Stiles as they started helping Hazel, building the first of many snow families. And maybe someday they’d add more to their own.

Until death brings us together Chapter 4 : DEATH
Final chapter of my Ghost Shinsou x reader fic!
You can read it on AO3
Title: Until death brings us together
Stauts: Complete
Tags/Warnings: Shinsou x reader, ghost!Shinshou, modern AU, Suicidal Thoughts, Implied/Referenced Character Death, depression, toxic friendship (not with Shinsou), sadness, pain, needles, perfusion, hospitals, mention of cancer, drugged drinks, ethylic coma, accidental death, suffering, disease, bullying, bittersweet ending
Rating: E
Summary: It starts slowly, insidiously; the sadness, the restless nights, the tears you silently cry at night alone in your empty apartment. That’s coincidently when you start seeing him: the man with the deep violet eyes, and he’s following you.Is he an evil spirit? Is he death? Or is he your depressed mind playing tricks on you?
You fall into a routine with Hitoshi. A dangerous one. Dangerous for your sanity. Because it just feels too real. Like he’s an actual colleague, or a roommate, made of palpable flesh, supported by solid bones. You tend to forget he’s not even breathing.
He’s with you at work when you take your break alone; he’s here on your couch in the evening when you need to talk about the upsetting things that happened during your shift. He’s here in the morning, teasing you about being a zombie before you had your coffee. You have his undivided attention when you talk, as he has yours when he sometimes tells you about his parents with watery eyes in the late nights of the week-end. He doesn’t want to go see them; you asked.
Since he’s become your supernatural roommate (companion? Friend? ..? You don’t know, you’re not afraid of him, but of what you want to call him), you’re…. better. Surprisingly so. You should be afraid for your sanity; you still had the pills you wanted to take when you first noticed him, but things in your life are weirdly easier. It’s easier to talk with your colleagues, the doctors seem nicer, more approachable. More human. You truly realize you’re all in this together, and they’re flawed like you are, but it’s fine because Dr Stiles has a beautiful wife that he likes to call “his heart” and one of your stoical older colleagues is a grandmother now and talks about her grandson with tears of emotion in her eyes. They are touching. They are people like you are, and not robots who do the same routine as you,; people that you pass by without seeing them, without caring, despite being a nurse.
Kagura even apologizes to you one day. You accept to hang out with her again, because she’s not so rotten, just insecure. You only promise yourself you won’t make the mistake of not setting boundaries with her this time. Oddly you have a feeling it won’t be a problem. When you hear her laugh again for the first time in weeks, it brings a smile to your face.
Generally, you tend to see the silver linings of things a lot more than before, the brighter side of negative events, the glass half full. And it feels great actually. You feel better.
Your life is far from perfect, and work is still difficult, but you truly feel better. You even go as far as starting random conversation with strangers at the mall, in the café where you still like to hang out. There you often chat with the new barista, the one with freckles and a smile that feels like sunshine. You even got his number. His name is Izuku. But Izuku’s not the one towards whom your thoughts always drift out without your consent.
It’s bad, how important Hitoshi became in your life; how close he is to your heart, he who doesn’t exist anymore. Thanks to his presence, you never feel lonely; you’re capable of being brave; braver, because he’s never too far away from you, even when you can’t see him. And because of it, you selfishly refuse to let him go.
You did research on ghosts, browsing weird websites to gather information you’re not sure you can trust. And you’re convinced he’s here for a reason, which probably isn’t keeping company to a depressed meaningless little nurse. Yet you don’t want him to leave you, so you ignore all the stuff you read about ‘accomplishing something so they can finally rest in peace’. Given how he’s gone; how could he ever be at peace? All that stuff’s probably bullshit anyway… right? Sometimes you still feel guilty for not telling him about those unscientific researches; for not at least trying to set him free.
He never approaches the subject of the future with you. Maybe he’s content with your actual situation? Or maybe he can’t wrap his mind around the concept of leaving forever. Of disappearing. Everyone’s a little afraid of death. Maybe that’s just why he’s here in the first place? Because he doesn’t want to make the big jump. Because his death was so sudden he wasn’t prepared to go; and he’s still not ready to go.
That night, you’re in your bed, musing over all this bullshit under your blanket, unable to sleep.
You can’t sleep because you’re thinking of him, and those thoughts treacherously go towards the feelings you’ve grown towards him.
If only he was still alive. If only he was a resident in your hospital, things could be much simpler. Would have been much simpler. You don’t know the guys who did what they did to him and either they don’t care or they are traumatized. Either way you hate them. You feel like they robbed something from the both of you.
You could have loved him. Would have loved him.
It’s easy to let your thoughts wander to that fantasy. You imagine dates in cafés, ice-cream under the sun at the beach… and then more intimate situations.
Mindlessly, your hand has travelled down your stomach and between your legs. During one second you feel ashamed of what you’re about to do. But the desire burning deep into your core is stronger. Your libido has been down for months because of your state of mind, and now that its awakened, the need you feel for release is unbearable.
It’s not difficult to imagine Hitoshi above you. Your creative mind offers to fill in the gaps as you picture his naked body; lean but muscular., taking you while he whispers sweet nothings into your ear in that smooth voice of his. His resonates clear and deep in your mind and his half-lidded purple eyes watching you are easy to picture.
“Hitoshi please” You don’t hear yourself breathe his name with your pulse pounding against your temples.
You’re almost there.
“Yes?”
His voice has the effect of an icing shower and you jolt up, grabbing your blanket to hide yourself, to hide the activities you were abandoning yourself to.
“W-what are you doing here? How long have you been here?” You ask too quickly, a little panicked.
“I just arrived, I thought you called me”
“I didn’t.. I-”
You stop when it occurs to you that maybe you moaned his name. A desperate groan escapes you and you hide your burning face under the blanket. A moment of heavy silence, and then Hitoshi dares to ask : “Were you doing what I think you were doing?”
You roll yourself until you’re a blanket burrito facing away from him.
“Do you want me to leave?” He asks next, maybe a little bit embarrassed. At least he doesn’t sound angry.
You groan again and try to disappear into a mountain of blankets. You’ll never be able to look him in the eyes again.
There’s a moment of silence, and you think he’s gone, never to come back given how disgusted he must be with you.
But you think you feel the blankets shift when in truth they don’t shift at all, and his voice is closer to your ear when he says. “I have to admit I’m kind of flattered”
You peak out from under your blanket, face so hot you’re surprised there isn’t smoke coming out of your ears. “Really?”
Hitoshi, who’s lying on his side ontop of the covers, facing you, graces you with a bashful smile. “Really”
“You’re definitely not real”
He chuckles at your comment, the sound of it music to your ears.
“I’m sorry” You mumble, mouth hidden by your blanket.
“I’m sorry too….” He tells you, and then there is a shift in his eyes. “That I can’t be with you like this”
He’s very intently looking at you, and the mood changes back to something more serious. “That I can’t touch you the way you want me to” He continues, and the way his voice lowered has you shiver. The tension is back in you, the desire renewed between your legs from just a few words.
“I wish I could feel how soft you are, how smooth your skin is” He confesses, his dark amethyst eyes never leaving your body, trying to see more, like he can see through the barrier of your blanket.
One hand slowly moves towards you, and although he can’t, it’s like he’s cupping your cheek. “How sweet you would taste”
There’s a tingling in your lips when his thumb ghosts over them. It’s like you can feel him there next to you. The warmth of his touch, almost real, sending electricity coursing in your veins wherever the echo of his skin touches yours.
“I would kiss those perfect lips”
His fingers travel down to the hollow of your neck, and his face comes closer, his lips close to your ear as he whispers: “I would make love to you all night long”
A sigh escapes you and the previous ache you felt in your core awakens again, burning ten times harder. You’re probably going mad at this point, because no one touching you as ever felt as good as Hitoshi just being here next to you, talking to you.
“Go on, don’t be shy, let me admire you, my pretty kitten”
The pet name makes your cheeks heat up. Still, you push your blanket away, unashamed of showing him your body now that you’re excited. You instinctively know he’ll take care of you and help you tend to your needs.
“Yes, just like that. You’re so beautiful” Beside lust, there’s a hint of another emotion in his voice, something like regret or sadness that he’s trying to hide. But your brain stops focusing on it the second he says:  “Now touch yourself for me.”
Your heart skips a beat in your chest before it races, your blood pounding in your ears. You close your eyes and let his voice guide you, fill your mind until the only thing you can think about is him. Obediently, your hand travels down to resume your previous activities. Hitoshi is so close to you. You’re sure he’s watching your every move. You’d love to see the look in his eyes; maybe he’s licking his lips from time to time. But you still feel a bit shy and it’s easier to keep your eyes closed and abandon yourself to the pleasure you’re sinking into.
“That’s it. My sweet kitten. So nice to everyone. You deserve to feel good”
You whimper, the pace of your hand on your clit increasing. You’re so close already. You’ve never been so aroused so quickly and if you weren’t so lost in the moment, you would feel ashamed of nearing the age so easily.
“Let me make you feel good”
He’s so smooth, feeding you with praises in a steady flow that brings wave after wave of pleasure pulsing through your whole body. Slowly your arousal builds up with the way he keeps bringing it higher and higher from his voice alone, like he’s growing a fire by slowly but meticulously blowing onto its embers.
“I want to hear every breath I would draw from you”  
The ghost of his touch tingles under your skin, warm and inviting, comforting.
“Say my name again”
You obey, crying out his name just before a powerful orgasm steals your voice and all the air from your lungs.
It takes you a moment to come to, and when you open your eyes, Hitoshi is still lying next to you, a wickedly satisfied smile on his lips. You feel shy again, exposed in only your underwear when he’s fully dressed. You bring the blanket up to your neck and his smile becomes gentler when he sees the way you’re blushing.
“Feeling good?” He asks, shifting closer.
“Perfect” You whisper. “Thank you”
“My pleasure” The melody of his low purr almost makes you want to have another go at whatever ghost sex you just had. But your muscles are sore, and you feel exhausted.
You don’t have time to ask him if you can somehow return the favour, even if he doesn’t have a body, because your eyelids fall heavily over your eyes, and you feel yourself helplessly drifting to sleep.
“Sweet dreams kitten” He whispers, and as you close your eyes, there’s a warmth on your forehead where you imagine he’s gently kissing you.
“Good night Hitoshi” You try to whisper before falling asleep.
--------------------------------
The next day, you are in an excellent mood. You spend a lazy Sunday at home, drinking hot chocolate while watching a movie as rain pours outside your window.
Hitoshi appears at one point and the smile you give him is positively beaming. He sits next to you, like it’s the most natural thing in the world, and you chat about the work that awaits you this week at the hospital.
In that moment, close to him, you feel content. You feel complete and at peace. You hope he feels it too; that calm.
That night you throw away the pills before his eyes, and when you go to bed, Hitoshi is not too far, and there’s no anxiety to keep you awake.
--------------------------------
Your honey-moon phase is short lived. What goes up must always come down they said, and things soon started to go downhill.
It starts the next week-end when you go to your usual café. Hitoshi’s sitting across from you, and the next moment he’s not. Cut mid-sentence he disappears. When he comes back, you brush it off with a smile. However these incidents keep happening more and more often. At home, when he’s next to you, you don’t feel the warmth from before anymore, and looking at it more closely, he’s becoming more see-through with each day.  You have more and more difficulty seeing him, hearing him, and he looks more and more transparent, the tips of his hair and his fingertips sometimes even blurred, like he’s fading into the atmosphere.
At first you deny he’s starting to vanish from your life. But you can’t hide from the truth forever, and you have to face the fear that keeps you awake at night.
Then, you start feeling selfish, for. How could you help him feel at peace like he helped you? You realize you can’t live like this forever. You’ll grow old, and what will happen to him? Will he stay in between forever? Is there something you can do so his soul can rest in peace before he just disappears?
With these thoughts soon comes another question: if you killed yourself, would you be able to stay with him as a ghost forever? No, you can’t let yourself think like that. You have your whole life ahead of you when he was robbed of his. He would never forgive you if you ended it for him. And he would be right about it.
You’re so caught up in your racing thoughts and anxiety that you barely even enjoy the few moments you manage to spend with Hitoshi.
One rainy day, when you get home from work after no seeing him during your shift, despite calling for him, you find him waiting for you beside the couch.
He looks sickly pale, even for a ghost.
The way he softly says your name when he invites you to sit down breaks your heart.
“I think it’s time for me to go”
You want to stand up, to confront him and if the gesture he makes with his hand to appease you is enough to keep you sitting, it doesn’t stop your voice from cracking.
“What do you mean. Go where?!”
The pained look in his eyes is torture to watch.
“ Since the day you threw away those pills away, I have more and more difficulty maintaining myself here. My consciousness is getting blurry and in my mind it feels like there’s something pulling at me, trying to lead me somewhere. And I think I need to follow it” He clutched an the blurry fabric of his shirt, just where his heart should be. “I feel it in my gut, my job here is done. You’re safe, so I can go. ”
This time you get up. You try to embrace him, but this time your arms just pass through him.
“Please no, don’t go, I need you. I can’t live without you!” You can’t stop the tears that are streaming down your cheeks. Angry and sad, you try to grab at him, to hit him, to push him, whatever it takes to just keep him here with you.
“You know we can’t stay like this. You need to move forward, to enjoy your future. I won’t change, I’m not even really here. I will only hold you back if I stay. I have to see what’s next. I’m not afraid anymore. You gave me courage” His smile doesn’t reach his teary eyes.
“But it’s unfair, you helped me so much” You sob, your tired arms falling to your sides.
“You heart is too tender for this world. But it is not a bad thing. You are a good person. You help people” Hitoshi’s voice is harder and harder to hear, slowly becoming a low whisper. “Live for the two of us. Enjoy. I wish we had met earlier but if at least I could help you so you wouldn’t end up like me, I’m glad. I’m glad I met you. Live long and live well… ”  You can’t see his legs anymore, and his waist is starting to evaporated into the air, like he never existed.
You’re powerless. From the beginning you were powerless. You hate that he was given to you and that now he’s taken from you. God, spirits, the devil, you despise whoever put you through these wonderful moments just to rob you of them. You despise the guys who had Hitoshi killed…. But amongst the pain and sorrow, you manage to tell him the most important thing. The thing you don’t regret.
“I love you” You cry, and the look of surprise on his face is blurred by his fading contours and the tears streaming down your face.
His amethyst eyes widen before they soften. He forces one last smile for you and if his last words are barely an echo of a noise, you’ll never forget them “I would have loved you too”
In front of you there’s nothing but empty air. Around you the only sound is that of silence. You fall to your knees and cry your heart out for him.
-----------------------------
The next day, you call in sick. You don’t want to do anything, don’t want to see anyone. You leave Kagura’s worried messages on ‘unread’.  You rummage through your trash can, looking for the pills, but they’re long gone.
The next week, you at least take a shower before going to work, your only intention being to steal the pills again. At night, the bottle in hand, you look yourself into the mirror. Dark bags under your eyes, pale skin and untended hair… you look like shit. You look into that poor girl’s eyes; that poor girl who has her whole life waiting for her. You throw the bottle of pills against the wall with all your force before you start crying again.
The next month. You accept to go out with Kagura. The pain so vivid before is a dull ache that makes you feel numb. You don’t want to do anything, but you let her take you wherever she wants. When she goes to use the bathroom, the bubbly freckled barista comes to have a chat with you. He manages to bring a small smile to your face.
The next year, you’re texting Izuku in the train that brings you to Hitoshi’s hometown. You place white lilies on his grave and pray that he’s in a better place.
Years later, you marry that cute barista who brightens your life like sunshine. When the two of you have children, you make sure to show them they’re not alone and listen to their struggles. You are overjoyed when they become parents too. You keep your job as a nurse until your retire and with your husband and family, you overcome all the smaller troubles that life brings you.
At the end of a full life with no regrets, in your hospital bed, you close your eyes and greet death like an old friend. A tall figure extends a pale hand to you at the end of a tunnel of light. You get closer and find shiny violets eyes wrinkled with the hint of a smile. You take the silhouette’s hand, unafraid.

Transformers Rise of the Beasts
I’ll just reveal this. I cried twice at this film. While for the second time, I felt like tearing up but...crying is a strange term to describe tearing up. And I mean this in the best way. Anyway, this film has some cool posters. But it was tricky choosing one to show here. So, here’s this one.
Tumblr media
There will be no major spoilers for this review. I will add a keep reading option. But I will...again, no huge spoilers. Yet I am going to talk about that ending scene and how I feel about it. While I...spoil it without saying anything. First the negatives and then the positives.
I was wanting to see this in IMAX. But I didn’t want to wait a few hours, so I went to a normal theater.
Here’s my biggest negative with this film. Despite many people complaining about the runtime of the later films...I wanted this film to be longer in some areas. While maybe not exactly three hours. But this is an issue I have with some of these big “Blockbusters”, and I feel like it may have to do with the number of characters in this film.
Certain things feel like they needed to be answered. And some things seem a bit rushed. Because I feel like for general audiences, it’s better to have some moments flow more and flesh out more characters. But that doesn’t mean there are personal moments and characters aren’t developed. Because like I’ve heard about this film. And I can confirm this.
Transformers Rise of the Beasts is basically trying to give you the huge action spectacles of the Bayformers films. But while still having the more personal and slow moments of Bumblebee.
Anyway, the other negatives. This one is a bit sillier. Fuck Jillian, all my homies hate Jillian. I strangely wished this character was killed by one of the Terrorcons. But that’s merely me being a sociopath and this character maybe only has a minute of screentime and something she does that I feel like...this woman doesn’t deserve nice things. But again, I sound so horrible.
(As of right now, I’m talking about Optimus Prime’s character. But fuck! I just found out that the Jillian character was played by Sarah Stiles, holy shit dude!0
But also, the ending before the credits start. This scene...I fucking hate it. Because like others, I now worry for this franchise. I get there has been crossovers with Transformers and this particular franchise. While I wouldn’t mind it down the line. But right now, no, I don’t want this crossover. I just want my Decepticon and Predacon breathren (I sound silly I know; I want those guys to show up next time) to show up in the sequel. That guy should’ve been Agent Burns from Bumblebee, not that dude.
Anyway, let’s get to the positives.
Despite I feel like this film could’ve been longer to flesh out more things. But what Steven Caple Jr. does just like Travis Knight, and a major important thing with this film. Despite it deals with a “McGuffin” story like Bayformers films. What Steven does though is that he’s able to still put emotion, characters and heart into this film. Even with how loaded it can be. 
Because I feel like if things were written a bit differently, and maybe it was longer. Transformers Rise of the Beasts would likely be one of the best Transformers films ever. It likely is, but what holds it back is again, how loaded it can be. But the film has its heart in the right place. And Steven and the writers clearly show that. It’s just trying to balance the action with the genuineness of the story it’s trying to tell. And I think people should admire that it tried to do that. Yet criticism is always allowed.
In a way, and I shouldn’t make the comparison. It’s akin to how Brad Peyton’s Rampage is so simple with its premise, but still has this emotional core in it. I’ll get back to the point.
The characters, both humans and robots.
The Cybertronians are treated like characters, like people. And that is truly special. Despite little moments in the Bayformers films that try to develop them. But they are usually treated as part of action set pieces than actual characters. Even with films that tried to develop them did so in such ways that didn’t seem I guess genuine. And then we got Bumbleebee, a simpler story about a young girl and her new robot friend. After all the Bayverse films, that was a film we needed, and I saw that movie three times in theaters.
When hearing the producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura wanted the sequel to be more action heavy akin to Michael Bay’s works. Many people like me were worried. And this dude Lorenzo, even to this day he still says stupid shit. He’s also one of the reasons why these films can be how they are. Like...there’s some videos explaining what I mean.
But again, despite the premise being filled with more stakes and less simple than Bumbelebee. It still treats the Transformers themselves as actual characters. Particularly Optimus Prime himself who has an arc of his own and you also have the character of Noah Diaz. They are pretty much our lead characters.
This is maybe Peter Cullen’s best voice over in the films and Optimus’s arc is fantastic. With him being a leader who has this heavy burden upon him wanting to protect his Autobots. Along with him having parallels to Noah as a character. By the way, Anthony Ramos as Noah is fantastic too. He’s likely one of my favorite human characters (Even though I still love Charlie Watson, Noah is still awesome) in this story. His goal, his story, along with his development are fantastic as well. There’s some conflict with their goals a bit despite how similar they are.
Again, they’re both played fantastically. Two of my favorite characters from the film. Then you got Pete Davidson voicing Mirage. Even though Mirage isn’t like his G1 self. But he’s pretty funny honestly, and his relationship with Noah is pretty great too. Mirage has some great scenes along with some of the other robots. Such as Optimus Primal and Airrazor. There’s a lot of good stuff in here.
But again, the robots are treated like characters just like the humans. Yet I do think you’ll mainly get that with characters like Optimus, Mirage, Primal and Airrazor. I think Scourge possibly as well, but I want to talk about him later. The other robots like Bumblebee, Arcee & Pablo Wheeljack (Yes, I’m calling him that too) have their moments. Whether it be for humor or small little moments. But nothing huge like character development.
You also have our second main human character Eleana. Who is also good, but I do seem to agree. She’s mainly there for plot reasons, but she isn’t a bad character either way. I honestly, liked nearly every character in this film. Even when characters like Cheetor, Rhinox, Battletrap, Nightbird and Stratosphere get a few lines here and there.
I’ll admit, while you do get to see the Maximals early on, they are mostly part of the third act. While Primal and Airrazor are the ones that get the most attention. And this one moment is the first part that legitimately made me tear up because of how affective it was. When you see the movie, you’ll understand what I mean.
Again, while Cheetor and Rhinox are there, nothing is done with them. But with all the robots despite...Pablo Wheeljack in a strange case. All of these Cybertronians are treated like characters and dealt with respect. Even with some having little screentime. It seems more earnest or genuine than how the Bayformers treated the robots.
Pablo Wheeljack is a weird case because he’s not bad or anything. His look isn’t bad and that I recall, there’s a reason for that. But they don’t explain it in the film, and it would be just better if he wasn’t called Wheeljack. In fact, I question if he should’ve been in the film anyway.
Now let's get to the Terrorcons. Scourge like others have said, he’s the best villain these live action films have had. Peter Dinklage voices him very well. Even though considering some of his lines really hints to him that he’s enjoying what he’s doing. Despite I feel like he seems to have a similar role as Galvatron in the 1986 Transformers movie. Being a slave of Unicron but instead of wanting to break free, he’s again, fully enjoying what he’s doing. Even though I feel like some depth could’ve been added to him to make me like him more. But he gets the job done.
While I do like me some pure villains who love what they’re doing. Some depth is nice to explain them. Even if it might be shallow.
Yet I do feel disappointed when it concerns his allies. While I can understand Battletrap is more of the “Brute” and he doesn’t get much lines. It’s kind of annoying when you know the history behind Nightbird as a character. But she’s instead played off as a henchwoman in this movie. Especially when you remember they talked about her character being flexible with alliances. Especially before the movie released. It looked like Battletrap and possibly Nightbird were ex-Decepticons turned Terrorcons.
I’m going to say this. I would’ve liked it if the Autobots when they first meet the Terrorcons, they assume they are Decepticons until they realize they are facing against something different and much more horrifying. Particularly Optimus as he’s been holding a burden as he’s been trying to make sure his Autobots aren’t found and no Decepticons find Earth. That’s something I wanted to see because I feel like that would be a big deal.
Anyway, I like all the robots in the film. I should talk about other stuff. Such as the score by Jongnic Bontemps. This is a spectacular score and hits the right notes. Especially there are familiar elements you’ll recognize from other Transformers films. Along with one of a certain classic villain I recall seeing a tweet mentioning it.
The action is again, awesome. You can see it, and it can be creative. And sometimes downright brutal. It’s made better when you can care about some of the characters. The set pieces are spectacular to see and what else can I say about the film? Because I feel like I’ve talked about it a lot. It was mainly the writing I wanted to talk about.
-
I think I want to finish this review soon. As a Transformers fan myself, I liked this film. While I do wish some things could be fleshed out a bit more. Like, the film could’ve been longer so things could have more weight. But the film still does it job of being a more heartfelt, yet action filled film. It’s directed by a guy who genuinely gives a damn and likes the franchise. It’s one of the best Transformers films despite its setbacks.
If you were annoyed with the Bayverse and loved Bumblebee, or you liked the action from the Bayformers, go check out this film. It’s pretty dang good. Maybe I gotta watch it more and think about it. But I was happy with what I’ve seen. Even though it wasn’t game changing, and you could be annoyed by it doing the “McGuffin” like story. But this time, you actually have genuine characters in this with some character development.
Again, despite how loaded it can be. It’s a good film, and I genuinely liked it. Hoping Transformers One is awesome. But also hoping the sequel to this gets even better, and we’d get a Beast Wars film down the line. Because I love Beast Wars. I just don’t want Lorenzo fucking shit up again.

You've been acting awful tough, lately
Smoking a lot of cigarettes, lately
But inside, you're just a little baby, oh
It's okay to say you've got a weak spot
You don't always have to be on top
Better to be hated, than
Loved, loved, loved for what you're not.
You're vulnerable, you're vulnerable
You are not a robot
You're lovable, so lovable
But you're just troubled
Guess what? I'm not a robot, a robot.
'I Am Not a Robot' by Marina
@blue-runt I hope you like it. 🙂

So i walked past this girl today. Whike getting coffee and she gave me attitude as she walked oast ne cause i wasn’t oogling her. Yup. I hate life.
You werent that pretty girl. Youre too overdone. And im pretty sure ive been dosed with soemthign again. Becaus ei have no drive and all i can feel is my rectum. Its disturbing. Like i soend all night beign fucked while unconscious. Maybe its prostate cancer. And im about to become impotent.
Sorry, no life for you. You are now abject. From everything.
Thinkbill complete the imf course and then apply to the training course. And then boom.
How long does it take to die from prostate cancer.? …. Awh. Its not very good. High chance of survival. Naw, im peeing fine.
Awh, what happened to ted lasso? It’s all a chick drama. Fuck season two. The forst season was great. Skip to the end of season. Whats the outcome?
Clench clench clench clench. Muscle gonna get sore.
Guess im never gonna know what not feeling abused is like. In a world thats hypes peace and love. What a bunch of bullshit.
Maybe its the pine apple. Or the “dominance of venus aspects with transiting mars. They are stealing mars from me. The whole controling projectstions thing they do day in and day out.
So what to do with all this time off? Too much co trol and oppresion to be able to fucntion anyeay.
Of course. Ted lasso gors from supper positive, proactive and supportive and motivational to season two of a feminine drama to season three of homosexuality. Touch media. Keep uo the brain eashing.
I need a ciggarette. Keep my idealized depression going and gove me an upper to whatever brain chemical produces functional behavior. And more unatural weather varying 25+ degrees a week. Right god? Or ehatever they doing to the weather.
Oh and its a day for crows. Waiting to devour ny fucken soul.its like a giant turd. Spreading out its arms wanting to hug you.
In going to go hang out at work. 20+ years of solitude and debasemment have left me insane. To be alone. So we take to mars and we go to venus.
So the baseball manager is fired and,
So the girl is gone. Maybe it was the devil card that did it. I did everything right. Guess we had near exact aspects. Guess she couldn’t handle me reflecting back her own bs. It was so nicely done too. Cause i gave it to the guy that she used to flirt with to hurt me, to give to her.
Alright whos the next girl? Im starting to win these. And since ive already been raped thi k it may be safe now. For other pwoole to mind therir OWN FUVKING BUSINESS.
Oh look that girl just gave me a nod of approval.
Should have seen their faces when i showed up and said yeah, i’d rather be here then watching gay tv. All of their faces sunk and showed disposition. Bunch of queers. And well for ted lasso was pretty much the experience i was being guided through at the time of its release. From a new start full of motivation. To a drasic change of queer bs. And then they raped me. Well atleast the forst season is safe. Im gonna binge that until its memorized. And i can role play as him.
Civilization only looks like a simulation because is lot f eats it is. It is basses asround sn organized script witH its own mathematical laws emdeded into the vary fabric of society. Took generations to perfect. Its an artificial plan for an artificial life. Robotics.
Whatever. Ive been being treated sexually since i was 6 years old. Your fucken system stile everything from me even childhood. I dont want to be alive anymore. And then family stole my you g adulthood and now they are dtealing my maturity. Theres not a dtate in my life where i dont get fucked over.
Ok so Russians and war. Current dialogue says to refrain from russian influence. That they are an enemy to the current state of affairs and are being a real irritate to the peace and dove agenda of the wanting wor’d order. Its curious in comparison that the films releases here say, that plugging into artificial reality is discouraged. Attention needs to be paid to reality. Focus and attention on real world matters is suggested. This also in line to “covid” as does sword art alone. The japenesse series places thr timing of its event on 2022. Wile being released to the public on 2012. Shows a trap in virtual reality, while all reasoning is to escape the imprisonment. Eventual the protagonists do. But remain there afterwards. With the use of free will and choice. And the american film. 2012. Shows a world being swallowed by the ocean.
If one goes to, or went to duolingo and chose russian the first word they learn is stupid. With in this bubble of conditioning. Any attempt to move forwards in the strengthening the proactive use “masculinity” towards the power of logo. Is discouraged. Subject must needs divergence from natural script. Taken out and drowned in lies.
Trying at outmost to steal the only connection one had left. All good will. And the presence of god guiding me true. When the atmoshpere turns and is impregnated eith meaning. And if one fallows it. leads to the wondrous. Uplifting stabilizing kiss of an angel.
It’s, fucken miraculous.
I hope a get to see her again. It feels my heart with intimacy. Hahah only from an angel.
It does feel like a turd. Well they are selling turd toys. Hot to catch them young.
Just got to live a life of being forced to be dissatisfied. Dont get want you want, dont get what you need, you dont get a say.
Hmm feel those muscles.
And no to becoming a desire driven invalid. That knows no bounds. Nope. I cut that thread it was nothing but evil and death. Haunted by the family and all these supporters. I was born in hell. Thats all there is. With their gross shit encrusted finger grappling on to me. Got to create a new emergence scene, one away from the evil feminine and the degenerate, delinquent masculine. Into the abscence of bs with the effeminate. Same script. Almost died. Didn’t matter.
Quit watching tv or gaming. Out effort in repairing myself, still under constant destabilizing pressures. But then i was lured and guided to walmart. And its pisces capital. All motivation being sent towards acquirement. Haha. Framing my disposition towards their goals. Making sure im a wreck. Set up experiences. As desperation grew ever more towards that peace of angel or just even a mutual back and forth. Nothign matters. Continue the show. Where do i go? What do i see? What do i feel?
Who am i here to please?
So we will fallow through on the opportunity to de-toxify. Think about shape. Work on healthier habits. And then. I lose everything and have to start over again.
When i stop feeling my ass. That be great. Im not sure if a need to take a shit or take a dick. Or if their both the same thing. I aint fucken ifentifying with that. Mars venus meecury mars venus mercury. So many positive relastionship aspects and here i am alone. Ass tingling. Fantastic. Guess their never going to stop. Think i might need some medication soon. Like an anti depressant. Theuy’d bever give me a gun though.
But at any rate. When it comes to designing a deck. Using a preset. Writing out a list of power words and attaching to them images one would like to see. And then setting them to script. Add in numerology. Namely the law of the scriptless. And attch that to the calendar. With trued attaention of the clock. A triple layer. The forth layer consist of “surface appearance” and the various association that can be implicated.
From this the mind can pick up various interconnected patterns. Swaying through layers to near 500 000 posibilities. 27 to the power of four.
That be fun.
There’d have to be a rule for the stance of each letter depending on its position in the power word. As if the E-fool was kept. All words starting with E. E is a complex number. It extends at length to an infinite object. Whether. Its a stop sign or a go. Remember there are no go signs. Ever. Is a power word. It includes all. Or excludes all. Never ever. Every- thing-one-body-time.. Extend. Extinguish. Endeavour. And one may see the difference the second letter fallowing E has in shaping to harmony. Though i dislike how endeavour starts with an end. Like end favour.
Which is…. Cool, considering the E card for the above is found inside the Emperor. Standing for letter F. One can fallow the predesvribe order. And focus on changing the image itself of the emperor to the scripts antagonist. Since you know Fuck, is an Ever word. And fail. Fall. Feel, fleet, fly, finger. Fish flow. Fact. Fun. So F isnt so Fun at the 4th level word. Or so dumb crap like that. Its late im tired. And my ass is still “sensible.” Im afraid to go near it.
Hm, guess the only thing i was ever ment to focus on in life was sex. 6 years old. Not allowed not to be. Its just keeps coming from without. Wtf, right? I dont know. Theyre jsut going to keep doing it. And i may be out of a job again. Because people wont leave me be. I dont want to get drunk and killmyself. Thats a shitty way to go. Id rather a gun.
Its time to send me a sexy Adreian. All chill and relax and sensous. Fill me up good. All inknownis sex drigs and violence. Indont knwo anythign else. Im not allowed to. Ive never felt loved before. Not from a person. Only my angel. Only from an animal.
My butt is gonna be so tight. He’s gonna love it. Im no stranger to the dick i was born and bred for this shit. Over 30 years training. You’ll never go back. Oh rats. I finished on pussy. God dammed it.
Thank you lord, god and father. For being there for all results. May your graceful light dance on the wind and kiss my cheek. Awh, i blush lord, god and father. Be you a presence of obtained bounty in mine air.
Amen.
I can prey better then you can mother fuckers.
Or like P for the hanged man, hanging there. Its head, aburst with light. Happy little guy. Poor poor hanging penis. Its tied there. Just a little snip.
Yeah’ my doctor snipped me. Wifey doesn’t like the downlow process of pairing plastic. And no more kids! Am I right?” O dont know my life is beign wasted away in an artifical program to turn me into a women for beign intentionally destabilized? Well hate to beat you to the punch but your thirty years too late. I fixed that shit. That shit was wrong. And i know its not my fault. And it still osnt now. Wow. Look at that. Its true what they say about reach arounds. Uh. I mean come arounds.
Truth in misery and all that.
Maybe if the world stoped killing my “prayers” id post soemthign other than bs.
Awh yeah. I think my gas broke. I got a shit baby to deliver.

Sammy's Swynwrimo: SWYNRP Character Wishlist
Disclaimer 1: As always I will not be including fcs because I certainly do not have any skill with fcs! I leave that to the PROFESSIONALS (like Mak)! Disclaimer 2: These haven't changed much over the years so I'm sorry! lol
Characters I Wanna See People Write Because I Wanna Interact With Them So Bad Pretty Pretty Please:
Barley Lightfoot: Listen, usually I'd put him in the list of characters I want to play because I've been tempted to pick up Barley for literal years but I feel like I probably shouldn't pick up Barley with Tony and Ian being solidified as soulmates so I'm begging pleading on my KNEES for one of you to get him so I can throw your future brother-in-law at them and Ian's mentor who I've been headcanoning treats BARLEY like a psuedo-mentor in the Magick History Department AND Riley, your psuedo-cousin! C'moooon!
Bingham “Bing” Boggs: Inside Out Characters FTW!! Listen, this idea is so bright and fun and I want to throw Martin at him and absolutely obviously Riley! It's just so fun please bring me Bing Bong 😭
Wade Ripple: Wade's energy really captivates me. I don't think I'd be able to do him justice but I have been obsessed with this sobbing mess since my first watch through of Elemental. I can see Riley or Martin (depending on age) also being drawn to his energy. Might drive Tony nuts depending but.
Keaton “Buster” Palmerteri: Listen, we ALL know I'm a Sequels Bitch and Buster has always been one of those characters I hate to love and love to hate. Just the Big Bully energy mixed with him also being a werewolf? The power that that could bring? Very fun!
James P. Sullivan: Who doesn't love a demon? Especially one who wants to pass for human but has to use their monstrous side to survive? The nuance! The dichotomy! I wanna see him!!
Characters Sammy Wants To Play & You Should Take Away From Me Please Oh Please Save Me From Myself:
Stiles Sanders Experiment 626: I've only been staring at this skeleton since I joined in 2020. I feel like Stiles' story can go so many ways! He's definitely got some Super Shit going on after the experiments but ultimately he wants to just be a person! And the amnesia? I mean please!
William Conner: Similar vibes to the above but!! Human Robot!! Human ROBOT!!! He grew too much sentience after an upgrade and now he wants to be a Real Boy! Why would you not wanna be involved here?!!?
Princess Atta Flutterwing of Swynlake Hollow: Okay this is a very recent addition to the Box of Potentials but the potential is still there! The idea of finding a human apartment because the Queen has decreed you need to understand humans which means you're essentially On Your Own for the first time in your whole life? Yes, of course, you can visit home but it's a whole change in the dynamics if you're visiting rather than living there. A coming of age story! Never Grow Up by Taylor Swift ANYONE!??!
Eve Harper: My concept for Eve is very different than the skeleton, admittedly. I can see Eve walking through the world with her OCD first as an adversary then as a way to look at things from other angles. I always picture her as a sorcerer (Divination Specialty) with the gift of Prophecy that makes her obsessions and compulsions all that more complicated to navigate. Just knowing she can do good with these gifts but also knowing that it's not quite as reliable as people might think.
Pearl Beck: The idea of this bright and bubbly cecaelia is really fun! The other two are evil (love you Ursula and Morgana) and Pearl just desperately wants to be accepted. Nowhere that has claimed to be 'Magick Friendly' has ever truly allowed her to stay because of the stigma of her abilities but she doesn't let it get her down!

I know my hate of TSAMS earth is mostly irrational at this point but
So was everyone's hate towards moon
She was probably made by moons and probably bloodmoons suffering somehow and her ""security protocol"" would have involved her beating up old moon or worst keeping him imprisoned and self righteously lecture him on anti violence
so sun can keep doing his emotionally abusive shit to him if he was stile alive.
Worst he would stile think he deserved it even through sun would be harrassing him beforehand.
She has taken the places in the plot that should have gorn to moon twice that I know of
one where she dated monty the other where sun and her were telling off eclipse when later on she was ""scared of imposing"" when lunar came back oh so it's on not to impose with lunar but not with moon.
The Monty dating one is wrong cause of how they are dragging down monty for someone who's so judgemental and aroace people can date and Monty's reaction makes more sense with how hard it would be to get moon to date him.
And the telling off eclipse thing is wrong cause they like to pander to the sun worshippers and pretend that moon didn't get potentially the equivalent of SAied for a robot by him. Yet these two earth who he didn't do shit to and sun who's unintentional suffering is overshadowed by how much shit he got away with gets to demand an apology.
Worst eclipses predatory behaviour towards moon gets justified by a sad back story literally labelled that and moon saying his last self wasn't a bad person is treated like a yeah right and pigs fly moment.
Worst I heard that he went back to dissing his last self even through suns the one who even now stile takes advantage of him and literally everybody's turned against him. Like this dude should have got some closure earth took that from him.
Annoyingly most people disregard it happening to moon just cause it didn't involve private parts cause they oh so like minimising everything bad that happened to moon.
I am certain earth's a sociopathic narcissist cause sun constantly getting away with his lack of empathy towards his brother and the lack of rep damaging consequences would seem like an advantage to the creator. The being good at childcare nice to kids thing doesn't discount this cause being good at house things makes a person admired.
And with all these things to me earth is shown to be hanging around new moon being a omen and I see them being labelled as ""cutesy"" hard to see them as cute knowing that the only reason she's not hurting him is that moon suffered memory loss
BTW I heard KC didn't give a crap about sun killing eclipse and it's certainly not cause eclipse may have raped moon.
I suspect he might have some damage from the seperation. If I hear shit about moon being entitled just cause he's pissed over all the horrible things that happened to him i'll be so pissed as well. I'm allready pissed about him game canonically getting tortured and possibly killed by sun enough allready.
Okay it only occured to me after a bit how disrespectful it was to earth to correct lunars spelling when he literally just came back to life.
Actually I wonder if he had robot brain damage as well.

WIP Tag Game
I was tagged by @twisted-pride to find the words pillow, ghost, and secret in my WIPS. Thank you for the tag! I couldn't spread them out over different/separate fandoms, but I tried to find each word in a different unfinished story.
Pillow
This is an excerpt from the third installment of what I call my "MCU dissertation" story. The series (two stories so far) can be found here.
"Good morning, Boss Lady Junior. It's seven-thirty-two. The date is Tuesday, July fifteenth. You are scheduled to depart for day camp at eight-forty-five."
Morgan smiled and rubbed her cheek against her pillow. It was going to be a good day.
While dreaming, her dad told her how to put Jamie, the bully, in his place; she was looking forward to putting a stop to his antics. Her camp friend, Tricia, was Jamie's target and Morgan hated the way he treated her.
One of the counsellors told them that Jamie probably had a crush on Tricia. That, in Morgan's opinion, was shit. If someone liked another person, they should treat the person nicely; they should prove they're worthy of squishy feelings in return. Treating them badly was just absolutely the wrong way to go about it.
(Plus, they were only seven. Who wanted crushes and feelings and having to hold hands when there were adventures to have (and robots to build)? Not Morgan!)
Her dad showed her how to break Jamie's grip when he grabbed Tricia's arm. And he showed her how to punch Jamie in the nose. They practised in her dream. She should probably practise in real life, too.
Ghost
I found this word in the sequel to my MCU!Sensate story.
He never knew what to expect anymore. Since Tony woke with the arc reactor back in his chest and extremis in his veins, he spent most of his time in the lab; he never took blockers, so their cluster and Darcy were free to visit him, but there was some sort of distance between them.
No one wanted to push Tony, since he'd been dealt several shocks (betrayal and grief on top of their reunion), but everyone was worried.
With Tony's upcoming scheduled video call to the Accords committee, though, someone was going to have to push a little. James would be first—and hopefully successful.
"Tony?"
His question garnered zero response. James guided his chair further into the room; he kept his eyes trained on Tony, who didn't move or blink.
When he sank into their bond and tried to visit Tony's mind, the visual was... different. He expected to see themselves—or at least Tony—in the workshop, just as they were. Instead, there was a void; something akin to white noise filled his ears. If he turned his head and looked into the heart of the darkness with his peripheral vision, he thought he could see the shape of someone-but the figure was too curvy and too short to be Tony and James couldn't place them.
It was a ghost, perhaps, or a memory, and James didn't recognise the significance.
"Oh, not this again."
James pulled out of the visit as soon as he heard Darcy's voice behind him. She put her hand on James' shoulder for a light squeeze as she walked towards Tony. Instead of treating Tony with kid gloves, Darcy put her hands on his shoulders; she slid her fingers from his shoulders to his neck to his jaw, and she gently turned him to face her.
Secret
I found this in multiple stories (like, repeatedly in my ongoing MCU/Teen Wolf/Criminal Minds fic, Stark Hearts), but I decided to go with a Teen Wolf Derek/Stiles/Allison/Kira WIP I started ages ago and never finished.
"Stiles," Derek muttered.
"You know he's been practicing these talks for a couple weeks now, in his fortress of solitude," Allison teased. She reached behind Kira and nudged Derek's closest upper arm; when she finished, she settled her arm around Kira's shoulders. "Let him go at his own pace."
"So. Like we told you before. Scott's still an alpha, as far as I know. Liam's still away at school. Mason, too. Peter and Malia are travelling. Lydia's in some top secret research thingy," Stiles said. He shrugged. "They come back on breaks and stuff."
"But, Derek flashed his red eyes—"
Stiles nodded quickly, repeatedly. "Oh, yeah, he's our alpha. Mine and Allison's. Yours, too, if you want," he said. "I mean, I know kitsunes don't usually form packs, but we've all been hoping... it sort of feels like you're supposed to be here, with us. Like, that's why the nemeton told me you were free."
"But, no pressure," Derek added. "If you'd rather continue on to New York, to be with your family—"
"You've got to be kidding," Kira muttered. "I can't even look at my mother on a screen without wanting to scream at her."
"All the same," Allison piped up, squeezing Kira's shoulders gently. "There's no pressure. We'd just ask you to keep Derek's status a secret. Only a few people know he's an alpha again, and we're trying to be quiet about that."
Aaaand, now for the hard part. The tagging. I am going to pester @little-red-83, @sheinthatfandom, and @nocompromise-noregrets. But! Anyone who sees this and wants to tackle it, please do :) The words I choose for you are vine, touch, and shine.

Sterek Fic Rec - December 2021. Hello wonderful beans! Welcome to the final edition of fic recs for this year. We made it! Wooo! Can’t believe it is already been two years since I started these lists :) Well let’s get this show on the road....
Brad The Douchebag Ex by LadyDrace (1/1 | 1,436 | Teen)
Stiles and Derek bump into Stiles' shitty ex while Christmas shopping. Derek isn't entirely sure what's going on, but when Stiles grabs his hand, he just kinda rolls with it.
The Ugliest Sweater by Chloepioneer (1/1 | 1,351 | Not Rated)
Prompt fill: "So we've never met but out showers are on opposite sides of the same apartment wall so sometimes we're showering at the same time and we sing duets."
Putting the F-U-N in Funeral by apocryphal (1/1 | 10,811 | Teen)
"Hale & Daughters Funeral Home," Derek says dully.
"Oh ho! And which daughter are you?"
Derek casts his eyes up to the ceiling. It's going to be one of those calls.
(In which Derek is a bored secretary, Stiles is a baker who may or may not have ulterior motives, and there are entirely too many macaroons.)
i see that you've come so far [just like them old stars] by crossroadswrite (1/1 | 2,304 | General)
But her big brother’s unwillingness to touch anyone, like he thinks he doesn’t deserve it isn’t the only thing she notices. She also notices how Stiles doesn’t touch him.
Everyone reaches for Derek in some form or another, but Stiles- Stiles is something different altogether because he reaches for Derek but he never makes contact.
He’ll be trying to shimmy past Derek and instead of putting a hand on his arm like most of them do, he’ll reach out with a hand and stop it scant centimeters away from Derek’s skin.
Or they’ll be walking alongside each other and Stiles will hover a hand on Derek’s lower back.
It’s both fascinating and tragic to watch, like NASA lost control of one of their robots and instead of it landing on the moon it’s fated to gravitate around it.
Now as Ever (All That Is and Has Been) by venis_envy (+podfic by sapphirescribe) (16/16 | 52,270 | Explicit)
Stiles can't remember what happened to rearrange the time-space continuum, or how he ended up being pulled into the past. All he knows is that he's there now, in 2003 Beacon Hills, with a teenage werewolf and a possibly-crazy veterinarian as his only allies.
Paid In Full by asarcasticwitch (1/1 | 4,746 | Explicit)
It all started with his Jeep.
Long story short, it broke down—for about the eighth time in the last month, but he’s not salty about it—and Derek paid for the repairs after Stiles unwittingly griped about not being able to afford it right now. It was just a flyaway comment, grumbled under his breath as he stared dejectedly at the billows of smoke pouring from his engine.
The Alpha heard him—because of course he did. Everybody knows it’s only on special occasions that Stiles is allowed to stand back and watch in peace as his life crumbles down around him.
Marked by CelestialVoid (1/1 | 1,007 | General)
Stiles seems to be keeping a secret from Derek; he keeps shying away from him cuddles and tender moments, pulling away from Derek and leaving him touch-starved. Derek is worried something's wrong, he's worried Stiles doesn't love him anymore, but the truth is far from that.
Slow Burn by fairytalesandfolklore (1/1 | 2,685 | Teen)
By the time Derek finally notices it, it's been there for at least a few months, if not years. It's not new — no longer the shiny, aggressive pink of a freshly branded burn mark, but a faded dusty rose, like an old scar or a birthmark, slightly blurred around the edges, though just as clear as the one he remembers seeing emblazoned across his father's chest every time they'd go for an early morning run through the forest.
It doesn't come with the fanfare and fireworks you hear about in all those fairy tales about love at first sight — a spark of light and a rush of summer heat like a flint struck against steel. Less of a wildfire, more of a slowly stoked hearth filled with glowing embers, a gradual warmth that envelopes him over time, without him even realizing, until one day, he forgets what it's like to shiver.
Emergency Fairy Lights by willowswhiten (1/1 | 1,941 | General)
I have no excuses for this, it is saccharine, ridiculous and it makes me feel all cosy inside. Enjoy x
Words Don't Come Easy by entanglednow (1/1 | 2,564 | Explicit)
This isn't even the weirdest thing he's had to do recently.
princecharmingwinks special mention (ok...so I’m being a little cheeky here but I kind of wrote a fic and put it on ao3? Would love if you had a read but absolutely no pressure. I promise these lists will not just be a self-promotion platform either haha. But it’s Christmas so I’m treating myself).
I'll protect yours, you protect mine by princecharmingwinks (1/1 | 1,771 | Teen)
“How sweet, a monster and his pet. Such a pretty pair you two make.” The hunter purred, their words practically dripping with venomous intent.
Derek couldn’t suppress the threating growl. No one threatened Stiles.
“It’s alright, big guy, we all know you’re the prettiest.” Stiles teased but his heartbeat gave him away. He was nervous.
----
When Derek and Stiles are kidnapped by a group of hunters, Derek is forced to reveal some feelings he has been keeping hidden for a long time.
And there we have it. The final list for 2021. Crazy, hey? I would like it to be noted that I did actually put in some themed reads into this list. But apparently Christmas reads for me = fluff and not smut. Don’t worry I’ll be back to my smutty ways for January 2022. Stay safe everyone, have a Merry Christmas and I’ll see you in the new year!

It's not unusual for wolves to overgroom themselves, when in distress, to the point of leaving behind blood and fur.
Derek and Stiles are trapped in a mental prison, forced to live out each other's secrets/memories in order to escape. Stiles witnesses Derek's unhealthy coping mechanisms after the fire.
(Just a short scrap of writing that explains why Derek suddenly had chest hair from s4 onward but was hairless before then.)
***
It was like watching someone methodically cleaning a gun. There was a set, practiced schedule that moved robotically through the man's supernaturally smooth hands like a well-oiled machine. At some point, the grooming had become muscle memory. The wincing had stopped. No little flinch under the eyes, jaw loose and unclenched. All the while, the glazed over, thousand-yard stare into the mirror never broke. There was no longer any pause to 'ready for the pain' in between applying the strips and ripping them off. It was now immediate and efficient. The scary part was Stiles wasn't sure if Derek had simply gotten used to the pain or if he had stopped feeling it at all.
Clip, pluck, scrub, snip, file, scrape, rip, rinse, repeat. Clip, pluck, scrub, snip, file, scrape, rip, rinse, repeat. And repeat. And repeat.
And repeat.
And repeat.
Stiles watched as snippets flitted one after the next through the passage of time, montaging through years in no more than the time it took to run a commercial break. Well, four years to be exact.
For four whole years, day after day, Stiles got to see as Derek's excessive grooming habits continued to evolve and become more methodical.
He watched as it grew more obsessive.
It would always start off small. Maybe plucking a stray hair that had grown slightly off the beaten path of his happy trail. Maybe clipping a corner of a nail that had gotten too sharp. Tiny, micro-adjustments here or there. Nothing crazy. But as the boy slowly grew into a man, the few minutes in front of the mirror every morning stretched to hours of hunting down every single hair on every inch of his body every night. Shaving had long been deemed 'inefficient'. Sometime during year two, Derek had switched to waxing strips. Getting it all out at the root made for a smoother, longer-lasting result. Hair gel and hairspray quickly made way for pomade as it achieved the lift he needed while still keeping the softness. There always had to be at least two tubes of ChapStick on him at all times. There were nail clippers attached to his apartment keys.
Stiles watched as the man would continue scraping under and around each nail for some imaginary dirt that was no longer there. There would be some days when the cleaning would go on until blood would start pooling around the cuticles. Only then would the freshly scraped nail tips be clipped off anyway. Hours of work gone and buffed just like that.
The most interesting year had to be the year in which the young wolf had learned to cut his own hair. Now, it shouldn't have surprised Stiles as much as it did to learn that all of Derek's neat and tight cuts were by his own hand. The guy was a fugitive for over two years. It wasn't like he could just walk into a Fantastic Sam's and ask for the $8 special. It made the most sense. That being said, logically piecing this all out still didn't make the sight of the grumpwolf, himself, carefully edging his hair clippers to make the cleanest napeline Stiles had ever fucking seen in his entire life (and solely by feel alone, he might add) any less surreal.
Outside of haircuts, it was a routine that usually ended in blood in some way or another. Bloody gums, bloody nails, sometimes even little dots of blood would show up on Derek's chest when he got too rough with the waxing.
----
"Alright, let's go." For Derek's sake, Stiles wasn't going to loiter around what was possibly a vulnerable point in the man's life. He could already feel his own face warming a little the longer they stood at the edge of the memory-room. He could only imagine how hot Derek's face was getting at his intimate waxing habits being peered at under a microscope.
"Wait!" he could hear urgently behind him as he briskly made his way out the open door. "Damn it, Stiles, wait!"
Yeah, no. He wasn't staying to hash out what Derek did to himself behind closed doors. There wasn't anything that Stiles was going to give him shit for, sure, but it was much too private of a moment for two bros to have and still be able to look each other in the eyes.
"Stiles! What you saw back there—it's not like what you're thinking! I wasn't—!" Desperation and embarrassment flooded Derek's voice, making it too loud as he quickly jogged to catch up to Stiles' power walk.
"Look, I get it, okay? You don't need to explain." He couldn't get why the other was so adamant about dwelling on this! Stiles was giving him an out so they could drop it!
A hand shot out to turn him around to face a furrowed brow and harshly reddened ears and cheeks. "You don't understand! I'm not some-some kind of—."
Alright, that was it. With maybe not as red a face as the other, he twisted out of the werewolf's grip to stare him down. I guess we're doing this now, he thought with a huff.
"No, you don't understand. I watched your secret, the room released us, we walked out, I get what I freakin' saw, that's what that means, Derek."
"But-."
"No, listen! Did you know that 80% of men have the ability to lactate if they used a breast pump for eight hours a day for up to two weeks?"
That certainly threw the man enough for him to almost forget his own embarrassment. "Wai-what? What does that have to do with-?"
"And did you know circumcision was first invented to stop masturbation?"
"I-what?"
"You see, I know this stuff because I research. Your whole thing is looking attractive? Cool. My thing is knowing gross, embarrassing shit that no one ever asked for. I know this stuff because I don't have muscles or coordinated limbs to fix my body or make first seat at lacrosse. I research because it's the one thing that I can do really, really well. I get to choose what goes in my brain, I can choose what my grades are. I can choose what college I go to or don't. Me. Just me. Growing up in a world where my mom was dying, my home was empty, and I was too much of a spaz to be the cool kid at school, I decided to read up on medical journals. I read up on anything and everything, because my grades, my vast knowledge of random shit, it was something I could control. When my world was falling apart and everything was slipping away from me slowly, controlling what I took in, what memories I kept, it was something only I could do for me. I understand the need to want control over at least one thing in your life and I get why you chose grooming. I mean, birds do it all the time. When parrots get stressed, they groom themselves until their feathers fall out. Even monkeys will lick themselves until they get bare patches. So, trust me. I. Get. It." He felt like he had been talking for forever. He was actually panting by the end. Stiles hoped that his long winded explanation hadn't embarrassed Derek too much. The guy hadn't really given him a choice. Stiles hadn't meant to get so heavy and personal about his mom and he definitely hadn't meant to compare Derek to a monkey, but now it was all out there. He could feel his face heating up the longer he stood there waiting for the man to say something.
The wolf looked absolutely speechless, a mix between shock and maybe a little bit of something else Stiles couldn't name.
Once he realized the man wasn't going to say anything back, Stiles had to turn away, trying to look at anything else but Derek's face. "So, are we getting outta this twisted mind-maze or what?" he muttered, bumping into the man's shoulder as he brushed past him.
It wasn't until a good five seconds later that Derek followed after him, trailing silently behind with nothing left to say.

Sterek Fic Recs Part 3
[You can find the first two lists here: Fluffy Sterek Recs & Sterek Fic Recs. Also here's a special fic, check it out]
First off, thank you all for a 100 followers!! As of September 7, 2021 you've made me feel really, really good about my obsession with two oblivious idiots (with sprinkles of the hale pack and other fandoms), and this is my way of thanking you ♥️
If you're on PC, you can see that there is a page dedicated solely to fic recs, which caters to other ships & fandoms too. So don't feel left out if you're looking for something other than Sterek!
Without further ado, let's get to it then!
an awful curse
Isaac is asleep in a chair. The angle of his neck makes Derek wince in sympathy.
"Isaac," Derek says.
Isaac snaps awake immediately.
"You're-"
"Where's Stiles?"
"Stiles?" Isaac asks.
Jesus. It's not like they know more than one.

Throw Away The Key
Stiles knew it was stupid to go to the hunters’ headquarters all by himself, so when he finds himself caught, he can really only blame himself.
It shouldn't surprise Stiles when the situation quickly goes from bad to worse as the hunters throw him to a feral werewolf waiting to tear him apart.
Sucks that it's Derek, though.

Whatever Happened Last Night, Why Did Glitter Have to Be Involved?
Derek rolled out of bed in search of his phone - quickly finding it in the pair of jeans that had evidently been tossed aside haphazardly on the way to the bed. Seeing the pants sparked flashes of memories - wolfsbane-laced alcohol, loud music, multicolored lights.
Peter’s new supernatural-friendly club - the pack had gone to the opening night party.
He unlocked his phone and opened the pack group chat, which Erica had affectionately named ‘Moon Sluts’.
>>Derek: What the fuck happened last night
[or: Derek wakes up with three things on his mind: he feels like he was punched by a troll, his mate is missing, and there's glitter covering his bed. Oh, and the pack group chat is mildly helpful]
**
Prompt #159 - “Also, my bed has glitter in it for reasons I do not recall.”

Good to Eat
So if Stiles married Derek Hale, he could become Jewish too? Perfect. It was settled. Stiles gleefully shoveled a forkful of cheesy shells into his mouth.
"Uh oh. I know that look.” Claudia shook her head.
"Don’t worry, Mom, ” Stiles said, reaching for his plastic Batman cup.
"I’ve got a plan.”
"Good luck, Derek Hale,” his mother muttered.
Rude.

Double Vision (only registered users can read this one)
"So what caused my hearing and sense of smell to dull?"
Deaton's brow furrowed, all amusement vanishing from his face. "What do you mean?"
Derek snapped, letting loose all of his anger and fear at the man before him. "I mean I can't hear your heartbeat or the cars down below or the birds in the attic! I can't smell the flowers in Mrs. Everett's apartment, I can't smell the rotting burger in the fridge that Isaac left in there a month ago, I can't smell or hear anything like I normally can!" Deaton mouth was pressed into a thin line. "Can you explain that?!"
 Tumblr Prompt: Derek jealous of himself.

Oblivious Misadventures, and Other Such Tales
Going to college was exciting and new, a chance for new friends and a fresh start, and the best part was, there was a supernatural fraternity on campus, meaning Scott finally had the freedom to be himself.
Then he met the resident human who came with a stalker alpha. What was the point of a supernatural fraternity if he still had to pretend to be human. And seriously, did Stiles ever fall asleep somewhere normal?

Call Me (Cliché)
When the sheriff's sister ends up in a wheelchair for the duration of summer, Stiles' dreams of three months full of pack bonding, late-night video games and bro-time with Scott come crashing down. He's temporarily relocated to Redford, a three hour drive away, and he can already tell he won't be getting many visitors.
Sure the pack will forget about him while he's gone, Stiles is determined to make the most of his summer of isolation, training his body and mind - and his magic - so he can come back with a bang, and maybe catch a certain Sourwolf's eye.
Then Derek shows up at his window one night with a flimsy excuse about needing research done. Suddenly, his summer away is looking a whole lot more interesting.

What's a Secret Identity?
Stiles sipped at a mug of coffee, absently watching the news play in the break room. Because of course a news station couldn't play anything other than its own content, even in the one part of the office that was supposed to be a safe space from work. His interview with Superman was making a rerun and Stiles glanced at Derek before commenting absently, “I’d totally let Superman fuck me.”
Derek, who had been in the middle of a swig of coffee, choked violently, “That’s not something I needed to know at nine in the morning, Stiles.”
Stiles raised an eyebrow. “What time would you prefer I tell you about all of the things I would let Superman do to my body?”

Déjà Vu
There’s a shop in Beacon Hills that no one knows anything about except that the mysterious proprietor, a witch in whispered circles, knows what you need before you do and that the things given are always just what you need.
Derek, lost after a breakup, heads into the shop to see if he can find something to help him forget his ex. The witch gives him a potion to drink, and when Derek wakes up, he finds he’s sixteen again and there’s a new student at his school, Stiles Stilinski.
Everything is familiar and yet not, and Derek finds he’s strangely drawn to Stiles in a way that is entirely supernatural.

Start Small, Like Oak Trees
The months following Allison's death have passed Stiles by in a haze of monotony. He sleepwalks through days that seem to lose their color, an unwilling passenger in a body he no longer trusts. Eventually, he thinks, he'll just fade away. He isn't sure anyone would notice. Then, during a spur of the moment grocery run, he stumbles upon Derek Hale attempting to console a lost child, and for the first time in recent memory the world doesn't seem so awful.
He's not sure what he'd been expecting when he eventually convinces Derek to move into the Stilinski's spare bedroom, but a newfound passion for weeding and topsoil certainly isn't it.

Undercover K9
As it usually goes, Derek acts before he thinks. This time he has a good reason, though-it's all Stiles' fault. Mostly.
Or, that time when Derek volunteered to spend all his spare time as a wolf with the Beacon Hills Sheriff's Office K9 Unit, just to protect Stiles' dumb ass.

“Obviou—um, what? Derek?” Stiles managed. “What? You’re not colorblind. You’re colorblind?”
“Yes.” Derek said gruffly. “And?”
“And? What do you mean and? You can’t see colors?” Stiles demanded, thrown. “Does it—what kind is it? Red-green? Blue-yellow? Why doesn’t—oh my god, is this why your entire freaking wardrobe was completely black until like two years ago? Oh my god!”
“There’s nothing wrong with having a favorite color, Stiles.”

1,460 Days (gotta clean my slate)
Two years after Scott becomes Alpha and Derek gives it up for Cora, Stiles gets hurt during a fight and ends up in a coma for two weeks. According to the nurse, a guy has been visiting him every day and, as much as he wishes it were Derek, it sounds a lot like Scott. Except he and Scott aren't even friends anymore.

S4 01 | The Dark Moon
BIG MASTERLIST | TW REWRITE | KO-FI
Stiles Stilinski x Reader! Half-sibling!Mccall
Word count: 3956
Warnings: Mentions of  injuries, blood, poison, death, seizures, dead bodies, swearing (always), etc.
A/N: Wow. This is the 4th Season already?! I noticed while writing this entire chapter this morning that we were starting season 4. This is crazy. Enjoy and I didn’t have time to proofread!
↪ PLEASE RESPECT MY WORK. DON’T COPY, TRANSLATE OR CLAIM THEM AS YOURS. NOT ON THIS WEBSITE OR ANOTHER. ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED.
Tumblr media
I glanced around, sighing, not knowing what to expect and seeing a different scenario from the one that I was used to seeing every day. There was a lot of people in the street, wandering through street markets, trying to get the best deal.
"This doesn't seem so bad." My boyfriend rubbed his hands together.
"It's not the town, it's the plan."  Lydia rolled her eyes as I chuckled. "Stiles. This could be the stupidest plan we've ever come up with. You're aware of that, right?"
"I'm aware it's not our best." His voice lowered.
"We are going to die." The three of us started walking.
"Are you saying that as a Banshee or you're just being pessimistic?"
"I'm saying it as a person who doesn't wanna die."
"Okay." Stiles's tiny gesture made my chest pound like crazy. He had grabbed my hand, scared I would get lost as there were many people. "Would you just mind restricting any talk of death to actual Banshee predictions?"
"This plan is stupid and we're going to die," Lydia said in a cheerful tone, attempting to make the hazel-eyed boy happy.
"Oh, thank you." He smirked.
It was night when we arrived at a building. The door was being watched by two men. They both smiled at us, especially eyeing Lydia and me, which made us feel a little bit uncomfortable.
"Estamos aquí para la fiesta." I murmured to them, letting them know that we were there for the party taking place inside the building.
One of them smirked, shaking their head as if to let us know that we weren't invited to go inside. I shifted my gaze to Stiles, who was searching for something inside one of the pockets of his trousers. As soon as he found what he wanted, he lifted it. A black card. And even though it seemed like just an item without much meaning, one of the men standing in front of us stopped smiling.
Stiles noticed that there was a camera just above them, lifting the card so whoever was behind it could see the object. Automatically, the door opened and the men had nothing more to do than let us go inside.
When the door closed behind us, we sighed, worried about what we could find. There was a small corridor, walls were of an intense red that was making my headache. And it seemed like the door in front of us and the walls embracing us shook.
As Stiles opened the door, we were hit with loud music, colourful lights and the smell of alcohol and sweat. Bodies ground against each other, following the compass of the music.
Stiles clutched my hand harder as his other hand rested on Lydia's arm. He didn't want us to get lost in the crowd. We ended up in front of the bar, where three drinks were placed in front of us even though we haven't ordered anything. I furrowed my eyebrows as Stiles sought money inside his pocket.
I felt a hand gripping my shoulder, and jerking around I was met with a man. "No. On the house." He offered us an insincere smile. "Most American teenagers don't cross the border to refuse a drink."
"We didn't come to drink." Lydia clarified, dropping what seemed like a bullet with a skull on it inside the drink.
Of course, we were taken out of the party, to the insides of the building where everything was dark and where now, a woman stood before us. "Severo hates this music. Me? I've always loved the music of youth." We were sitting in front of her, while there were men all around the room, keeping an eye on us. "This kind, especially. It has a savage energy."
"We're here for Derek Hale." I was the first one to speak aloud.
"Is that so?"
"We know you have him. We've heard you can be bought." Lydia was the one continuing while Stiles placed money on top of the table with a loud thump.
"It's 50,000 for Derek."
"Now, where does a teenage boy get money like this? Japanese mafia?" A woman behind us loaded her gun, making Lydia and I jump in our seats as a man did the same next to Stiles. "Not smart to come alone."
"What makes you think we came alone?" The boy next to me smirked, and I couldn't help but take the grin out of my face. Malia, Kira and Scott had come with us.
"You brought a wolf into my home?" She got up from her chair.
It was my turn to smirk. "No, of course not. How could we do that?" She seemed to relax, but only for a couple of seconds due to my following words. "We brought an Alpha."
"My friends..." She sighed as she turned around. "I don't think you're aware of your poor timing. Do you know what the dark moon is?"
"The part of the lunar phase when the moon is least visible in the sky," Lydia said in a robotic tone.
"But do you know its meaning?"
"Some people say it's a time of reflection. Or grief." I intervened.
She glanced at me. "Grief and loss, mija. I wonder why, when you and your friends have suffered so much loss, you would risk it again for someone like Derek Hale."
"'Cause, we don't like to lose."
One of the men next to Araya stopped us from continuing talking as he started speaking to someone on the other line of the walkie talkie. I couldn't help but have a tiny smile on my face when I heard the voice of my brother through it. "Stiles. Take 10 off the table."
As the button-nose boy did what my brother had asked for, I decided to speak up. "Maybe you should just take the deal." Lydia nodded her head, smiling at the woman in a sickeningly way.
"While I'm keen to follow the warning of a Banshee," She glanced at me. "And of course, the one of a Siren. I'm going to have to decline."  
"Aaaa... Come on. Just give us Derek. You don't want him anyway. Haven't you noticed what a downer he is? No sense of humour, poor conversationalist." I tried to maintain a serious expression as Stiles's continued speaking. "Just come on, take the money."
Araya grabbed the walkie talkie once again. "Severo? Show them how the Calaveras negotiate." When Araya left the room, the three of us were manhandled by the men. And I wasn't a Banshee, but even I could feel that Scott, Kira and Malia were in great danger right now.
Thinking back, we ended up here because Scott had gone to Derek's lot, just to find that he wasn't there. He had found bullets, and sending a picture to Deaton, he had learnt that it was the mark of a family of hunters based out of Mexico. The Calaveras.
Lydia said that he wasn't sure he was dead, but she also wasn't sure if he was alive, which was perturbing.
"He is awake!" Kira informed us as Stiles and I got closer to my brother, who was lying down on the floor of a dirty and abandoned bathroom, where we have been taken. "Guys, he's awake."
"Scott, you okay?"
"Yeah." He tried to get up. "They don't have him. They don't have Derek."
"We know." I sighed, offering him a smile that he sent back, trying to let me know that he was alright. "But right now, they've got Lydia."
"Lydia? What do they want with Lydia?" He asked rapidly.
"We always have the same question and it is always answered the same way," I spoke as everyone glanced at me. "The power of a Banshee."
My brother rapidly got up from the floor, trying to open the door with his bare hands, which wasn't working.
"We already looked for a way out. I think a lot of people have." I furrowed my eyebrows as Kira talked, not sure of what she meant until I saw the marks on the walls. Marks of people who desperately tried to escape, scratching the walls with all of their strength.
Malia was leaning against a column. "I say when that door opens again, we take out whoever's standing in the way and run for it."
"What about Lydia?" Kira asked, and I sighed, knowing Malia's next words.
"What about her?"
"We're not leaving without her."
"Why not?"
Stiles shook his head, getting closer to her. "Because we don't leave without people. Remember, we talked about this? Rules of the wild kingdom don't apply to friends."
"Is that what you would do as a coyote, leave her for dead?"
"If she was weak and injured, yeah. If hunting had been bad that season, I would eat her. Then I'd leave."
"Mmm. Believe it or not, that's progress." I crossed my arms over my chest. "Stiles and I've been trying to explain everything to her."
"All right, guys, we're not dead yet." My brother interrupted. "And that means Araya wants something."
Kira glanced at the dark-haired boy standing by her side. "But if the Calaveras don't know where Derek is, that means they didn't take him from the loft. Right?"
"Maybe he left on his own." Stiles completed.
Scott glanced at the floor. "Maybe someone else got to him."
We couldn't continue with our theories as the door abruptly opened, showing three men that quickly walked to us. However, we were soon met with darkness.
When I opened my eyes, my head was aching and everything around me seemed to move in circles. My throat was dry as if I haven't drink anything in days. I gradually noticed that I was tied to a chair and that my brother was tied to another one, right next to me.
The door of the room where we were now opened, showing Araya with another man and Lydia. "Oh, God," Lydia murmured as she saw us.
"Let her go. Look... you've got me. Just let the others go." My brother begged as Araya smirked. Her gaze moved to me. My brother followed her gaze, and it seemed like he had noticed from the first time that they had taken me too. "Why did you bring her?"
Lydia was chained to another chair as Kira came inside the room, also chained while a man grabbed her. What was going on? "So, let me explain what's about to happen." The man grabbing Kira spoke. "This one, the fox, has an immunity to electricity. So she's going to turn the dial on the Alpha. If she doesn't, I turn the dial on the Banshee and the Siren."
"No. I'm not doing this." Kira tried to resist.
"I see. Are you sure? One of your friends has the power to heal. The other? Not so much." Severo smirked. "And the other one might end up dying." Who?
"What are you doing?" Scott glanced at the old woman. "Is this a game to you?"
"This is a test, lobito. Let's see if you pass. We're going to ask some questions. You answer them, nobody gets hurt." She walked around us, but I had to close my eyes and lean my head down as everything continued moving around me. "You don't answer, we turn on the dial."
When I looked up again, my brother was looking at the fox girl. "Do what they say. Okay. Whatever they want. I can take it."
"So... We don't know where Derek is. We want to find him as well. You know who took him."
"What?" My brother asked her. "How would I know that?"
"That doesn't sound like an answer to me."
"We don't know." Lydia intervened. "Why do you think we came here?"
"Kira, turn the dial." The woman ordered, but Kira shook her head. "Should we turn the dial on Lydia instead?"
My brother quickly spoke up. "No, no! Do it, Kira. Do it."
"Let's start at one." As soon as she said that, my brother grunted, his hands gripping the chair he was sitting on, trying not to scream in pain. "Tell me! Who actually has Derek? Who had a reason, a vendetta particular to the Hales?"
My brother continued panting. "I said I don't know."
"Oh, you don't know because you haven't figured it out yet. So think! Who could've taken him?" They turned the pain even stronger. "Who had the power? The power of a shapeshifter?"
"I-I don't know."
"Oh! Someone who could have turned without you knowing. Turned, but not by a bite!"
"I don't know!" He screamed.
"Y-you.." My voice was a mere whisper, but swallowing I was able to scream. "You are going to kill him!" There were tears in my eyes. "You are going to kill him! Stop!"
Araya laughed, shaking her head. "No, mi amor." She smirked. "You will die first." I furrowed my eyebrows, feeling the temperature in the room dropping. I was cold. "Something told me lobito right here was going to be hard to peel." Her gaze shifted to my brother. "Your beautiful sister has poison running through her blood." My brother quickly glanced at me. "The longer it stays in her system, the more difficult to take it out. She can end up having seizures." I closed my eyes for a couple of seconds, feeling dizzier than before. "Say the name, Scott."
"Kate." What? Kate Argent?
"Okay," I heard Araya's voice. "Stop the machine." Severo did as he was told as another two men walked to Scott and Lydia, freeing them. My brother quickly walked to me, extending his hands to touch me. However, my body started shaking and I couldn't make it stop. "Severo bring the shot."
The door of the room opened again, this time two men were grabbing Stiles and Malia. Stiles's eyes widened as he saw me shaking while being tied to a chair. Before he could step forward, the man grabbing him stopped his movements.
"Don't dare any of you to touch her now." Araya's strong voice resonated through the room. Severo walked to me, stabbing the side of my neck with the syringe. I could feel the liquid running down my blood. Severo unleashed me, lying me down on the freezing ground as my body continued shaking.
"W-What did you do to her?? You old troll." I wanted to smirk at Stiles's use of vocabulary, but I was too busy being scared of the constant shaking of my body.
"She will be alright," Araya replied. "She has more water in her body than a human. The liquid we injected plus the water will do a quick job in removing the poison."
"N-nice." I tried to sound sarcastic.
"Fever might be a side effect of the poison, but you will be alright."
Tumblr media
I watched as my brother talked to Araya while I was leaning against Roscoe with the others. Stiles was constantly asking me if I was alright. I felt a little weak, but my temperature was back to normal.
Scott finally walked to us. "So what now?" My boyfriend asked.
He shrugged. "She thinks she knows where we can find Derek."
"She gonna tell us where?" Malia asked while she leaned her head against my shoulder. My hand went up to play with her hair.
"Uh, actually, she's giving us a guide."
Stiles's face transformed into confusion, but it went away as soon as a big motorbike stopped in front of us. "You know her?" Stiles asked my brother.
As soon as the person took their helmet off, we saw a beautiful black woman whose neck seemed to be scarred. "Braeden."
"Who's Braeden?"
"She's a mercenary," Lydia added.
"Right now, I'm the only one who's gonna take you to la iglesia."
"The Church?" I questioned. "What's The Church?"
"It's not a place you'll find God," I smirked, liking her way of talking.
Getting inside the jeep, we followed her as she took us to la iglesia.
There was a comfortable silence inside Roscoe. The three girls were sitting behind as I sat on the front between my boyfriend and my brother. "Okay, I'll ask." Malia was the one interrupting the silence. "Who's Kate Argent?"
Kira put her hand up. "Uh, I'd like to know, too."
"Well, we were at her funeral. So, I'd like to know how she got out of a casket that was buried six feet underground." I chuckled, nodding my head that was resting on Stiles's shoulder as he drove.
"She was never in it." I glanced at my brother.
"She was Allison's aunt," Lydia spoke, and I could feel the pain in her voice. The pain of someone who recently lost her best friend. WAnd a total sociopath."
"You don't have to talk about it now if you don't want to." Kira whispered while glancing at the back of my brother's head.
"Um, yes, he does." I was going to scold Malia as if she was a curious child that didn't know when to keep her mouth shut.
"Yeah, she's right. You guys should know. You need to know."
"All right." Stiles sighed. "Kate was the one who set the fire that killed most of Derek's family."
"Some of them survived, like Cora, and Peter." Scott added.
"A very angry Peter," Lydia appended.
"Yeah, he's the one who bit and turned me." My brother sighed.
"And the one who scratched me." I added.
"And the one who finally caught up to Kate and killed her." Lydia explained.
"And we saw her buried." Stiles and I replied at the same time. He took his eyes off the road for two seconds to place a kiss on my forehead and ask once again, if I was feeling alright.
"No." Scott shook his head. "We saw a casket, remember? She wasn't in it. The Calaveras heard that Kate had been killed by an Alpha's claws. They wanted to make sure she was really dead. Her body was healing. More and more, as she got closer to a full moon. She was coming back. So they switched out the bodies. If a hunter is bit, they have to take their own life before they change. The Calaveras, they treat the code like law. They make it their responsibility to enforce it."
"Good for her." The were coyote intervened. "I wouldn't do it either."
"Would you kill half a dozen people to get out? Because that's what she did."
Kira sighed, placing her hand on my brother's shoulder. "So Kate's a werewolf now?"
"I don't know. You know, there's a saying, sometimes the shape you take reflects the person you are." I nodded along with my brother's words, remembering Jackson Whittemore. What was of him now?
"What kind of shape is sociopathic bitch?" As soon as the Martin girl spoke, the car was hit by something, making Stiles stop driving as we all got startled. We all got out of the car as Braeden got off her bike to ask what had happened.
"I don't know. It felt like we hit something." Stiles and Scott were examining Roscoe.
"Scott, we need to get there by night. It's too dangerous otherwise."
My brother sighed. "Go." Stiles made a gesture with his hands, trying to let him know that it was okay for him to leave with Braeden.
"Not without you."
"Dude, someone needs to find Derek. We'll figure something out. We always do. Just go."
I walked to my brother, kissing his cheek and embracing him. "Be careful, okay?" He nodded his head, wishing the same for me and sharing a look with Stiles. A look pleading him to take care of me.
Before he walked to the bike, he was stopped by the fox girl. "Scott... I can't think of anything else to say except for be careful. And...and I know 'Be careful' sounds kind of lame and I'm totally sure the second you're gone I'm gonna think of something much better, but I..."
"Uh, 'Be careful' works for me." I smiled as they embraced each other.
I sighed. "They are so cute," I whispered while wandering close to Stiles as his hands rubbed Roscoe's side, making sure that there wasn't any scratch.
"We are cuter." He replied while biting his lower lip and inspecting his jeep. I laughed and nodded my head and watching my brother disappear with Braeden.
"Guys," Malia grunted. Therefore, I turned around to look at her. "I don't think we hit something. I think something hit us." She was holding up what seemed like giant teeth or claw. I couldn't differentiate them, to be honest.
I sighed, leaning against the jeep as I examined my boyfriend inspecting the hood of his car. A screwdriver in his mouth. "Stiles, baby. Don't hate me. I know you love Roscoe but maybe we should just walk." He glanced at me with wide eyes. "It's getting colder and darker." I made a gesture to the girls as they rubbed their arms.
"Hey, I will never abandon this jeep. You understand me? Ever. Ever. Ever."
Malia glanced around. "Work faster, Stiles." She paused as her eyes continued examining the whereabouts. "There's something out here with us." I gulped.
However, night had fallen upon us and Roscoe wasn't working. Malia continued in front of us, glancing around, prepared to attack whatever was observing us. Kira had grabbed her sword while Lydia and I tried to help my stressed boyfriend. "Lydia, could you please hold the light still for a second? It's really hard to see anything if you keep shaking it like that."
Lydia scoffed. "I'm shaking it like this because we're in the middle of nowhere with your broken down jeep and we're being attacked by yet another razor-clawed monster. And I'm terrified."
"Well, just be slightly less terrified." He answered back. "You hold this." He handed me a big metal piece.
"What's this?" I inspected it.
"I don't know. I'm hoping it's not important."
"Oh god." I sighed. Things got worse as the next thing that happened was Malia running towards somewhere or something. "Malia!" I yelled. Kira ran after her while Lydia told Stiles to continue fixing the jeep.
"You... you please don't do that ever again!" Stiles scolded Malia as he drove. The jeep was finally fixed or so we were hoping.
"Do what?" She innocently asked.
"I... I thought you just took off. I thought you were running."
"I was running."
"No, I mean, like, I thought you were leaving."
Malia pouted, looking between Stiles and me. "I wouldn't leave without you guys." We glanced at her. "I would never leave without you two. Them I would leave."
"Yeah. Uh, it's progress." Stiles sighed. "I feel like the dad of a teenager girl." I nodded my head. Stiles and I had taken the paper of teaching Malia what she shouldn't do. The actions she must separate between a human and a were coyote.
"Don't do it again, okay?" I begged. "You scared us." She apologized. "And that doesn't look good."
"It's okay."
"Are you sure?" Kira looked worried as the rest of us. "It looks deep."
"I can feel it healing." I sighed in relief.
"You didn't see anything?" The Martin girl asked.
"Barely. It had a strong scent, though."
"Like what?" I asked while offering her water from my bottle.
She smiled at me as if she was a little puppy, grabbing the plastic bottle. "Like death."
When we finally arrived at the place where Scott and Braeden where we noticed that they were grabbing a young boy. Malia asked if that was Derek, to which Stiles replied 'Sort of'. That young boy was Derek Hale.
Derek Hale was a teenager once again.

Sparks | Stiles Stilinski
Teen Wolf Drabble
Nav
Tumblr media
Warning(s): the Deadpool.
Harper and Stiles were laughing and cuddling on his bed, joking back and fourth. It was rare for the teen couple to ever have a moment for themselves anymore, so they wanted to make the best out of it.
Suddenly, Harper’s phone started ringing, causing their laughter to cease as she sat up and picked it up from the nightstand, checking the see who it was before answering. “Hey Lyds, what’s up? Did you find anything new?” The girl asked, blissfully unaware to what her best friend had just found out.
“H-Harper…” Lydia stuttered, her voice cracking as she stared at the list in front of her in disbelief.
“What? Lydia, what is it? You’re starting to scare me.” Harper said, standing up nervously as her boyfriend looked at her with confusion.
“Harper…I-i know the code to the second Deadpool list,” She said, her voice trembling as she spoke.
“That’s great, Lyds! Now we can know who’s on the list and protect them!” Harper smiled, unknown to what this was going to do to her life.
“Yes, but…” Lydia gulped, knowing her friend needed to know this immediately, but she was still overwhelmed herself, and she didn’t know how Harper would react. “There’s also someone we know on the list.”
“Well, that’s even better! That way we could keep a close eye on them just in case, who is it?” She smiled widely, knowing that there was a chance they could prevent another death from happening in the town of Beacon Hills.
“Harper…It’s you.” Lydia said, and Harper could hear her heart stop as her breath hitched. This wasn’t possible, she was human, she had been with the pack since the very beginning, and nothing happened to her that could make her a supernatural or even hint towards it. And seeing as her best friends are all some kind of supernatural being, surely they would’ve sensed it in some way. But, she didn’t have a say in this, she was on the list, meaning; Harper was a supernatural being, yet they didn’t even know what the hell she was, especially as this came in surprise due to her never having any strange symptoms that could even suggest it.
“H-how much?” She asked, her voice barley above a whisper, but her best friend heard it, and so did her boyfriend. Stiles looked at her with with wide eyes as he stood up in front of her,. It didn’t take a genius to understand what the girls’ conversation was about, and the look in his girlfriend’s eyes was of pure fear.
“50 Million dollars.” Lydia said quietly, her eyes still glued to the screen as they teared up.
Harper robotically moved the phone away from her ear as she stared her forward, her eyes filling with tears begging to be shed at the new information. Not only was she on the Deadpool, she was valued even more than the fucking True Alpha and her best friend, Scott McCall himself. “What is it? What did she say?” Stiles put his hands on his girlfriend’s shoulders, gently turning her to him.
“I’m-i’m on the Deadpool…” She slowly looked at him, her eyes still wide in shock as she couldn’t find any sense in her situation. After all this time trying to figure the supernatural world, turns out that was a part of it herself, and that only made it even more impossible to understand. “For 50 Million dollars.”

the monster in my head
A/N: VILLAIN BELLAMY, TASTY. sooo this bellarke ficlet was born because i thought, what if bellamy went all void stiles on us in the final season after being captured?? like obviously, not gonna happen but it’s such a juicy concept. 
disclaimer: my knowledge of season 5-7 is so sparse it is laughable. i just wanted to write a mind-wiped!bellamy drabble basically, so please excuse my lack of detail in literally every other aspect of this. also all the typos, i wrote this really fast lol.
Clarke wakes up tied to a chair and her first thought is, I can’t believe he tricked me.
Except he’d gotten her guard down. One second she’d been walking away from the others, looking for something to eat on this godforsaken planet they’d landed on, and the next-- he’d appeared.
Right in front of her. The sight of him disarmed her so much, she’d only been halfway through saying his name when he hit her, and she’d been knocked out.
Now here he is again.
Bellamy, sitting in a chair opposite to her-- but he’s not the Bellamy she knows.
Except he is, she realizes with a start. He’s the Bellamy of before Praimfaya, his hair curly and unruly over his forehead, his jaw clean-shaven. His familiar, handsome face would settle her if it weren’t for the cold look in his eye. 
“Bellamy?” she says slowly, drowsily. Am I talking to Bellamy?
“Clarke,” he says pleasantly, and she realizing he’s twiddling a pocket knife in his fingers. Even the way he says her name is cold, and she didn’t realize how warmly he used to say it until just right now. 
The way he tilts his head to consider her is entirely foreign. Not in the way of people who were controlled by ALIE, where their movements were robotic, un-humanlike. No, this comes entirely from him, just... a different version of him. He’s wearing different clothes, too. All black. Black jacket too. His clothes and his skin and his hair are all clean, and pristine, like he’s been well cared for while he was gone.
Clarke, at this point, has grown used to the impossible happening. She just accepts in this moment that this Bellamy is not her Bellamy, and focuses on other things, like getting out of here and living another day to find out what happened to him.
They’re in a tiny, one-room cabin. Tools all over the place. Her hands are tied behind her. She stretches her wrists experimentally. No slack at all.
“What are you doing?” she asks Bellamy, who’s just been watching her take in her surroundings.
“We’ve been looking for you,” he says, still fiddling with his knife.
“Who’s been looking for me?” No answer. “Bellamy, what-- what’s going on? I haven’t seen you in--”
“Don’t you ever get tired of talking?” Bellamy says, bored. He tilts his head suddenly and stands. “Time to go. They’re waiting for us.”
“What do you mean it’s time to--” she cuts herself off as he strides towards her. She stays entirely still as he pulls the gun from his thigh holster and presses it to her temple.
“You try anything, and we see what your brain looks like decorating the wall.”
His voice is casual. Her heart beats faster.
“That’s a lie,” she guesses. “You’re bringing me to someone, and they want me alive. They wouldn’t be happy if you killed me.”
He laughs, lowly. "You willing to bet your life on that?”
He leans over her and cuts her free from the chair.
“Walk to the door,” he says against her ear, and she obediently stands.
“Do you remember me?” she asks, as he nudges her forward with the gun to her temple. He’s still got that knife in his other hand. It would be perfect to cut through the ropes around her wrists. “Do you know who I am?”
“I know who you are, Clarke. I just don’t care.” He presses the gun against her temple harder. 
“Someone’s controlling you,” she guesses. From his silence, she guesses she’s right. “Are you still Bellamy?” 
“That’s right.”
“Bellamy would never do this. He wouldn’t threaten to blow my brains out.”
“Well, I just did,” Bellamy replies. “So I guess you don’t know me very well.”
They keep walking forward. Towards the open door, revealing a grassy clearing beyond. “That’s okay,” Clarke replies. “I know it’s not you I’m talking to right now. I forgive you, Bellamy. If you need forgiveness, I’ll give that to you.”
He falters. That’s when Clarke makes her move.
She ducks from under his gun. He fires-- he fires!-- into the empty space where her head was. She tackles him around the middle, making them both tumble into the ground. 
Bellamy’s caught off guard-- his movements slow, clumsy for a second, and she presses her advantage. She’s on top of him. He’s still got a tight grip on his knife, and she wraps her wrists around it, tearing through the rope binding her hands together with one strong pull.
He seems to wake up from whatever confusion he was in when she scrambles off him, his knife in her hand. She’s only made it two steps before he grabs her ankle and tries to yank her down again. Before she can fall, she grabs onto the chair he’d been sitting on for leverage. It crashes down with them.
Bellamy tries to pull her towards him. She grabs the chair leg and swings it over-- the chair is surprisingly light--bashing whatever part of his body she can reach behind him.
He grunts and releases her. She staggers up and sprints out of the cabin.
She’s in the middle of a clearing, in a forest she doesn’t recognize, with a sky up above that she doesn’t recognize either. She has no fucking clue where she is.
Right down to what planet she is on.
“Not so fast, Clarke...”
His voice is a sing-song from behind her. She whips her head around, and there he is, wiping blood from his face, but not looking angry at all. He’s walking towards her leisurely, and tucking the gun back into his thigh holster. He actually looks on the verge of a smile. Like he’s enjoying this.
“What now, princess? Where you gonna go?” he says softly, and the words are familiar and horrible in their new context. A chill races up her spine. She turns back around and sprints into the forest.
She’s running blindly for a few seconds, completely terrified out of her mind. She trips over a root, and then she’s tumbling down a steep bank, sand spraying around her as she falls. Pain explodes through her shoulder, and then the back of her head, and her back, and she just keeps falling and falling, and she doesn’t know which way is up or down, just that everything hurts.
She finally gets to the bottom of the hill, rolling into freezing cold water. She’s fallen into a stream. It takes her several moments to gather herself, and in that time she distantly hears footsteps coming down the bank. No. No. 
Gasping, she rolls off her back, onto her hands and knees. Looks up only to see a hand coming down at her.
Bellamy yanks at her hair. Hard. She cries out, and he kneels beside her, prying the knife from her hands and tossing it far down the stream.
“You tried to shoot me in the head,” she gasps, unable to grasp that concept. It just makes no sense. The people he’s bringing her to must want her alive. “The people in control of you-- they wouldn’t have wanted me dead-- so why--”
He dunks her head underwater. She fights, struggles against him, throws her elbows, but he’s firm. He pulls her out after just a second. She’s gasping for air, wet hair stuck to her cheeks, the cold drenching her shirt and making her shiver. He leans in close, his nose brushing against the shell of her ear.
“The thing the people in control of me don’t know,” he says softly, “is that they don’t have very good control of me at all.”
She turns her head to stare at him, the dark eyes she can see her own terrified reflection in, his freckled cheekbones she knows so well, the curls hanging over his eyes. If it weren’t for the things he was doing, the things he was saying, she would say he looks in this moment exactly like the Bellamy who stood beside her and ordered her to write her name down on a list.
Except right now there is a monster lurking under his skin, and she’s starting to think the people who unleashed it didn’t know what they were doing.
“What did they do to you, Bellamy?” she asks, her voice tender, and his grip on her hair loosens slightly. “What did they do to make you like this?”
But then he gets a better grip, and dunks her back in the water again.
He keeps her there for so long her lungs scream for air. She makes herself go limp, but right when she does, he pulls her out again, and easily blocks her attempts to hit him. Backhands her instead, stunning her with pain.
He knows her game. He knows her too damn well for playing dead to work.
Clarke gulps breath into her lungs. She can’t understand what happened to him to make him like this. She only knows it must have been horrible, worse than Mount Weather, worse than anything she could imagine. “I’m sorry I wasn’t there to stop them from hurting you,” she says, again as soft as butter, and his eyes narrow. He dunks her back in.
When he pulls her back out, she manages to gasp, “I will kill the people who did this to you,” and he dunks her back in again. This time he holds her under for so long she actually blacks out for a second.
She comes to a moment later, leaning against his shoulder. He’s looking down at her with a storm in his eyes. She gazes up at him. He seems to be waiting for her to say something.
She says, “I’m going to do everything I can to bring you back--”
“Stop,” he says, and his voice sounds pained. “Just shut up. Shut up. Shut up.”
He lets go of her, and his hands sink into his own hair, his expression hard and enraged and emotions flickering over his face a mile a minute. Clarke manages to clamber back on her hands and knees, shakily. She reaches to touch him.
“Don’t touch me,” he snaps, shoving her away, and she lets him, but then she puts her hands back on his face, gently. She traces her fingers over his jaw, brushes her thumb against the corner of his lip.
She’s sure she doesn’t imagine when he leans into it.
Suddenly Bellamy laughs, and the sound is bitter and disbelieving.
“I am trying to kill you,” he informs her. His voice is hoarse, as if he’s the one who’s been held underwater.
She smiles, gently again. “I know.”
Because she gets it, suddenly. His motivation to end her life is not because he actually wants her dead. The monster inside him is trying to kill whatever’s left of Bellamy, by killing her.
But he still can’t do it, and that’s how she knows there’s hope. That’s how she knows Bellamy is somewhere in there, fighting, maybe even at this very moment.
Bellamy reaches for her throat then, as if he might strangle her, but then it comes up and he brushes her wet hair out of her eyes, tucks the strand behind her ear. Like he can’t help himself. Then his hand tightens on the back of her neck again. His eyes harden, expression becoming blank. The monster has taken over completely again.
She leans in and kisses him.
He freezes. Her mouth is numb from the freezing water, but his is warm, and soft, and for half a second, he kisses her back.
She doesn’t know if she’s kissing the monster, or Bellamy, or the monstrous part of Bellamy. She doesn’t give herself time to find out.
She reaches behind her for the biggest rock she can get her hands on in the stream, then swings it at his temple.
The thunking sound is horrible. He topples over on his side. The splash his body makes as he falls over in the stream is small, nearly inaudible over the loud rush of water.
She staggers to her feet, gets her hands under his arms and drags him out of the water. She deposits him in the mud and stares down at him. His head lolls to the side. His eyes are closed, his expression open and innocent. He might be sleeping, if it weren’t for the gash on his head, half-obscured by dark curls, where she hit him with the rock. He’s bleeding. She’ll have to clean it.
She runs her hand over her mouth, still breathing raggedly. 
Bellamy. Bellamy. Bellamy.
She hefts him up from under his arms again and starts to drag him back up the bank, her heels slipping in the wet ground. But she’s determined. They’re not far from that cabin. She’ll tie him up in the same chair he had her in.
And then? She has no clue. There’s only one thing she knows.
