omg so I NEVER do this, but have you ever just read a fic that literally left you speechless? like, you know its going to just stay with you for a long time?
This fic did that to me. I listened to the podfic at work earlier, and then went BACK to read it for myself, and it's just... It's gorgeous and heartbreaking and I almost put it down half way through because I couldn't figure out how it could possibly be OK, but then it was and it was perfect and so well done. Derek here was flawless, and so real and so broken and Stiles. OMG Stiles. For all that he was not the Stiles that I'm used to (for obvious reasons), I think it speaks so highly of the author that he still somehow felt IC all the same.
I could literally keep going on about this fic. It is THAT good (and gorgeous art too!)
