    Summary

    Peter Hale didn’t intend on becoming a children’s book author. Life had become monotonous and, dare he say, too well-adjusted. The territory was stable, he had friends (if you counted his overeager editor), and he finally had a not-entirely-hate relationship with his nephew. But going back to writing mysteries and thrillers? It just wasn’t happening.

    Stiles definitely intended to become an illustrator because being an office worker was [soul-crushing and exhausting and] definitely not what he’d envisioned. And on top of that, he’s undergoing treatment for Chronic Magical Drain, so art is his respite. When he wins an illustration contest, it feels like everything is looking up.

    Then he gets to TW Publishing’s San Francisco office… and Peter fucking Hale is sitting across from him.

    Summary

    Stiles has had the night from hell. Running for his life through the preserve, all the while actively bleeding out from his wounds, throwing in a disembodied voice and a sudden acquisition of magic powers, and Stiles is just about ready to write off the last twenty-four hours, sleep for a week, and start again.

    Unfortunately, life has other plans.

    ***

    Starts up at the end of season two after Stiles leaves the Argent basement.

    TW because there are some rape/non-con elements, no actual rape more just some unwanted touching, and rated mature because of graphic descriptions of violence, swearing, and whatnot.

    Characters are mostly underage (Everyone who is still in Highschool at least), but they are aged up slightly, Stiles is seventeen, for example, and Derek is twenty because I said so.

    Summary

    "Very impressive," Peter said, slowing his approach. "Not, and I mean no offense, something that Stiles would be able to do. So, who are you?"

    "I can shoot a gun, Peter," Stiles mumbled, lowering his pistol.

    "I don't mean the gun." He glanced off, where the bodies still lay. "How could you know about the Alphas? And where to find them?"

    "I'm just clever?"

    "You rescued Erica and Boyd before anyone even knew they were missing."

    "I'm... really clever," he drawled, packing up his things.

    "You're not Stiles," Peter decided.

    "Don't get all paranoid," Stiles mumbled. "That doesn't happen until like, half a year from now."

     

    -OR-

    Stiles travels back in time in order to save everyone he loves, but accidentally goes a bit too far. Now he's stuck in the body of his 17 year old self with the knowledge of every good and bad thing that will happen in the next ten years. Oh, and Peter is suspicious and far too intelligent for his own good.

    Summary

    (So the thing is poison witches have a shitty reputation. It’s not even an incorrect reputation, because most poison witches have weak imaginations. They poison people. The end. But Stiles? Stiles is creative, it’s another natural skill he’s embraced. He asked:

    Why use the same poison on a person as a thing? Why limit yourself?

    And,

    Since we can poison a thing, why can’t we poison a spell? A curse?

    It went over poorly in the general magic community, bunch of crusty snobs. Their loss. Stiles will continue to do the impossible, thanks.)

    Summary

    Stiles is tired. He's tired of always having to defend himself to his so-called best friend. He's tired of being ignored and he's tired of the Pack never having his back.

    So this is his line. He'd draw it in the sand, but all he has is a glitter sharpie.

    It'll have to do.
