REC: Teen Wolf waking up from djinn!AU
an awful curse (6253 words) by leah k
Derek Hale, Stiles Stilinski, pg13
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 thoughts: really enjoyed this one! Jerakeen shared this on pinboard with this catching quote:
Stiles is watching a dumb commercial selling an ugly necklace when he sits up suddenly, spine stiff. He asks, "How did we meet?"
It's a slightly better summary than the one provided by the author (blinkiesays) because you know something's off in this fic right away VS Derek being concerned about Stiles when he wakes up from an injury (bc TBQH this happens all the time in Teen Wolf canon/fanon). It does a unique take on this AU, starting with the waking up part and interspersing with what happens when they're in djinn-land (or rather, witch-cursed universe of their heads). Both of them are jarred since they were older in djinn!AU and it focused on them, leaving out reminders of their friends/pack that could rescue them. They have muscle memory and slight changes in memory that makes everyone realize a lot happened while they were in their witch!coma.
Definitely recommend reading this if you want a good Sterek fic that involves other supernatural elements not in canon yet!
