Teen Wolf: Sterek Rec List of DOOOOOM (Pt 1)
It's been so long since I've posted a rec list, and the amount of Sterek fics accumulated is so many that I'm gonna do this by alphabetical order. :D
PAIRING: STILES/DEREK
[#, A]
1. [Highly Recommended] [Sleep]Walking After You by relenafanel
Summary: Derek is a sleepwalker who keeps wandering into his downstairs neighbour’s bedroom.
Stiles is pretty sure the hot guy from the park is going to kill him in his sleep. He knows he shouldn’t have been so obvious about objectifying the guy’s really fine ass.
Too bad it turns out Derek is easier to get along with when he's sleeping.Notes: AU, non-werewolf
2. [Recommended, fluffy feel good fic!] 12 Days of Hale Publishing by relenafanel
Summary: From the prompt "Christmas! - Derek is the chief editor for a publishing house, Stiles is currently in the mail room trying to work his way up the publishing ladder, doing whatever needs doing. Right now, that's delivering the company's 12 Days of Christmas gifts to each person in the office, starting with holiday pens. His route includes Derek's office. Derek who glares at each Christmas "gift" he drops off like it's personally offended him and his mother."
Notes: AU, no werewolf, office romance~
3. Ain't That A Kick In The Head (Series) by Swing Set in December
Summary: Wherein Hogwarts is a hotbed for teen romcoms where the surly hot guy is really a romantic dork who pines after the oblivious nerd who love getting into trouble. Oh and there are dragons. AND FEELINGS. And magic, but that's really not important to the plot.
Notes: Hogwarts AU
4. [Highly Recommended] Actual Puppy Derek Hale by tylerfucklin (zimothy)
Summary: Derek didn't know what was worse: the hunters, being trapped as a wolf, being hit by a car, or the fact that he had somehow become some kid's pet dog for the unforeseeable future.
Notes: AU
5. [Recommended] An Intermediate Guide for the Lycanthropic Lovelorn by ladyblahblah
Summary: Stiles doesn't know why Derek Hale has asked him to go to Hogsmeade with him, but he's preparing for the worst just in case.
Notes: Hogwarts AU
6. [Recommended] A Story To Tell The Grandcubs by mass_hipgnosis
Summary: Stiles asks the stranger standing next to him at the bar for help avoiding his creepy ex boyfriend.
Notes: AU, no Hale fire
My notes: The perfect meet cute story~ :D
7. A Christmas Retail Story by rlnerdgirl
Summary: Prompt: Derek works in women's retail. Laura sends her assistant Stiles to buy her random things so the two can meet. Derek later sees Laura wearing the hat/socks/whatever Stiles bought. Your choice on reaction.
Notes: AU, no werewolf
8. [Highly Recommended] an awful curse by leah k (blinkiesays)
Summary: 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.My notes: Hmm, delicious, delicious angst. Happy ending in the end though. <3
9. [Recommended] Accountability by ampliflyer (withlightning)
Summary: “So,” Sandy says. “Is Derek the one beating the crap out of him as well?”
Jake exhales slowly, shakes his head. “I’m not sure. Stiles is protective of him, that’s quite clear - but that’s how Stockholm Syndrome works, right?”
That’s exactly how Stockholm Syndrome works.Notes: Future fic, story from third person POV into Stiles life.
10. [Recommended] Aversion Therapy by entanglednow
Summary: If Stiles had had more than a second to think about it, he probably would have remembered that his spur of the moment ideas weren't always his best ones.
[B, C]
1. but couldn't good be good enough by lazulisong
Summary: "His dad is probably going to tell Stiles not to hang out with us," says Boyd, taking a sip of his Coke.
Isaac gives Derek an utterly betrayed look, and Erica glares at him. "I told you not to wear those sunglasses!" she hisses.
"What if Stiles can't hang out with us any more?" says Isaac wretchedly. "What if Scott doesn't want to hang out with us because -"
"I said those were pedophile sunglasses!" says Erica, in a quiet, piercing whisper that makes Derek's ears hurt.
Boyd continues eating his gyro, which he has laid out on a plate like a salad on a piece of flatbread, methodically picking out the tomatoes, feta and lamb and laying them to the side to eat after the lettuce. Boyd would eat his gyro if there was a bomb going off.
2. Believe by lenore
Summary: The Stilinski men are BAMFs, and the evil Christmas elves really don't stand a chance.
3. [Recommended] Beltane by DevilDoll
Summary: "Watching Stiles heal someone has always been a little uncomfortable for Derek, like he's seeing something intimate and private that shouldn't have an audience. That's nothing compared to how it feels." This is an AU in which Stiles has magical healing powers.
Notes: AU, healer!Stiles
4. [Recommended] bigger, longer and uncut by drunktuesdays
Summary: Derek walks away, because he’s learned that sometimes he’s never going to be able to join in on the joke, and this conversation is just making him have more questions. Like, why is Stiles so obsessed? Is he grossed out by uncut cocks or does he like them? Is Stiles cut? His face starts heating up the way it always does when he starts thinking about Stiles like that and he ducks into the shower, manfully ignoring the new round of laughter from downstairs.
Notes: Read the warnings.
My notes: Misunderstandings (on Derek's part), jealous!Derek + shit ton of hot sex--Just yesssss.
5. [Highly Recommended] can't be hateful, gotta be grateful by HalfFizzbin
Summary: "Be cool, Dad, we've decided to con Grandma."
(Or, the one where the Stilinski men drag Derek to Thanksgiving dinner at Grandma's and she gets the right wrong idea.)My notes: So much fluff and feeeeels. Plus tons of humor. One of my favs for the holiday season for sure.
6. [Recommended] Calm, Assertive by kellifer_fic
Summary: Stiles tries to stealth-obedience train the werewolves. It goes about as well as can be expected.
7. [Highly Recommended] Come Fly With Me (Or Don't) by haynnes
Summary: Stiles is overworked and stressed out when his flight home gets delayed due to copious amounts of snow. He finds entertainment with one Derek Hale, whom he hasn't seen since high school but really doesn't mind getting reacquainted with.
Especially when it turns out Derek is surprisingly hilarious and will reluctantly play snap with him. And can walk on his hands.Notes: AU, no werewolves, meet-cute~
My notes: Just love how the boys flirt with one another in this fic~ And Derek is just super charming. *swoons*
8. [Recommended] Cherrybomb by the_deep_magic
Summary: Stiles is yanked up to his feet so fast that his world spins and his shoulder aches and he’s a second from screaming police brutality! when he gets a good look at the cop’s face.
Holy shit. Stiles was just tackled to the ground by a fucking underwear model with a badge.Notes: AU, cop!Derek, delinquent!Stiles
9. Courage Through Fear by Pookaseraph
Summary: With the Alpha Pack closing in, Stiles is thrust into the center of an unusual three-way alliance between Hunters, werewolves, and little old him. Injecting himself between all sides in a war far beyond his skill has far reaching consequences for Stiles, but it might be just what he needs to gain the courage to get what he wants.
10. cool story, bro by drunktuesdays
Summary: Based on a truly ridiculous conversation with Kalpurna about a hypothetical Stilinski Twins situation that ended up sounding something like:
“FUUUUUUCK, is it a sweet valley high situation where Stiles is very aware that his twin is way more attractive and confident than he is, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE IDENTICAL, and he always ends up with the hotter significant others and more friends and Stiles guesses that's why he's attracted to the pack at first, because it's something that's just his, not his twin's too. But of course, Stiles's twin gets bit and now he's part of Derek's pack, and Derek doesn't snap at him like he snaps at Stiles, never slams him into things, fucking FIGURES, STILES'S TWIN GETS EVERYTHIIIIIIIING.”
Notes: Slight AU
[D, E, F]
1. [Highly Recommended] Don't Worry Baby by kalpurna
Summary: "You know you're allowed to ask for vanilla sex, right?" he says, afterwards. "We can do whatever you want. That's kind of the point."
Derek doesn't respond.
Notes: AU, prostitute!Stiles, client/werewolf!Derek, possessive behaviour
My notes: Scorching hot sex and the interactions between Stiles and Derek is just perfect. Also, love possessive, super dominant!Derek.
2. [Recommended] Don We Now Our Gay Fake Boyfriends by relenafanel
Summary: “What happened to your sweet Camaro?” Stiles asked.
“His sister borrowed it,” Erica said cheerfully. “Drove to Lake Tahoe for the holidays and left him here without transportation and fending for himself.”
This was... perfect, actually. Stiles needed a fake date and Derek needed a drive. “I’ll tell you what, I’ll drive you to and from the party and in return I get to tell Mrs. Gordon you’re my date.”
“Fine.” Derek nodded.
Yes! Stiles had a fake date to the Holiday Party!Notes: AU, office romance, fake/pretend relationship
3. Diamonds Are Forever (but flowers are cheaper) by tylerfucklin (zimothy)
Summary: His name was Stiles Stilinski. He was older than 21, but younger than 25. His dad was the sheriff and he was a student at Beacon Hills Community College. He came into the shop every couple days; always after three, but never past five. He always said hello to Laura, always bought one bouquet, and always spent five minutes trying to make Derek smile with as many puns as he could come up with by the time Derek handed him his receipt.
Derek may or may not be in love with him.Notes: AU-human, florist!Derek
4. [Recommended] Derelictions of Duty by Regann
Summary: No one wants to be the bearer of bad news to someone as nice as Sheriff Stilinski -- especially when he's your boss. That's why none of his employees want to be the first one to tell him about the scandalous goings-on between his only son and the former murder suspect Derek Hale. For all of their sakes, hopefully the Sheriff will find out all on his own...
(Or, 5 times a Beacon County Sheriff's Office employee witnesses the unique relationship between Stiles and Derek but neglects to tell the Sheriff and 1 time he witnesses it for himself.)My notes: I giggled my way through this whole fic. Derek and Stiles' relationship from other people's POV is just so much fun to read.
5. Definitely Not Fish Demons by FireEverything
Summary: Your father wants to take me fishing.
Derek looks at the message before he sends it, wondering why it’s so difficult to convey deep discomfort with just text.
His phone buzzes in his pocket a few minutes later. Uh oh, says Stiles’ reply.
Notes: Failwolf!Derek, so much FLUFF. :D
6. Easy Rider by Saucery
Summary: There's nothing easy about it, actually.
Notes: Scorching hot sex, riding, size kink, dirty talk + a couple more. So much UNF.7. Flint and Tinder by rufflefeather
Summary: "Hi," a voice comes through and Derek really wishes it’d take more than that to know who it is.
8. [Highly Recommended] Famous Last Words (Series) by JenNova
Summary: All you need to know about this series is that the doc is titled "The Sex Buddy Fic".
A series of 'made-them-do-its' which ended up telling a much bigger story.
9. [Recommended] Father Knows Best by Pookaseraph
Summary: Sheriff Stilinski has finally figured out the cause of the rift between them: his son's gay, and he's effectively cut that line of communication. Being the good father that he is, he tries to make sure Stiles knows that he can tell him anything, especially about Derek Hale. Their wires seem to have gotten crossed somewhere.
My notes: Just love fics from Sheriff Stilinski's POV, and this has so much humour & fluff, making it a delightful read~
10. [Recommended] First Date (Series) by HalfFizzbin
Summary: Takes place in the canon 'verse about a year and a half after S2, and charts the major milestones in Stiles' and Derek's brand-new relationship. Contains reckless!Stiles, failwolf!Derek, good-guy!Sheriff and a seriously ridiculous level of cuteness.
Notes: SO MUCH FLUFF. Read it. C:
11. [Recommended] For Neither Ever, Nor Never by reliand
Summary: She turns to look at him, fright in her features, and Derek doesn’t understand. This was her idea, so why is she looking at him as if he is a monster?
It must be because he is.Notes: AU, dark/serial killer!Derek, underage sex, possessive/obsessive behaviour, dysfunctional/unhealthy depictions of relationship, read the warnings & additional tags!!
My notes: I love dark fics (for some reason), and this one just hit all my kinks in the right spot. But seriously, read the warnings, this is not a fluffy, happy fic.
