Bullets and Claws by anon at tw_holidays
Derek/Stiles [PG-13] (12k)
Summary: Semi-AU. When the Hales open a bookshop next to the Silver Bullet coffee shop, Stiles notices his new boss Mr Argent seems to have a history with them. It’s the only reason he tries to find out more about their family. It has absolutely nothing to do with how attractive that grouchy Derek looks. Nope, nothing.

Rec spam? sorry? I’m trying to get recs out before Christmas holidays hit and I’m even further behind.

FIC:
Cherrybomb by the_deep_magic
Stiles/Derek (13k) [Nc-17]
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.

this is an au with Stiles having lost his Dad and not his Mom, and somewhere along the way the mix of anger and grief and lack of discipline in his home and the local law enforcement looking the other way out of pity, Stiles ends up quite a trouble maker. Nothing ~bad, but getting dangerous, getting out of hand. And Stiles is getting too old for this shit - or so thinks Officer Hale, the new cop in town. Both Derek and Stiles characterisations in this fic really rang true for me, despite the AU. They worked. And the result is incredibly hot UST between a reckless, troubled youth and a cop with a big heart but a mountain of his own issues. (no underage naughtiness occurs, btw)

Courage Through Fear by Pookaseraph
Stiles/Derek (51k) [R]
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.

This is a difficult rec. I’m not typically one to enjoy OTT bamf-ness. Stiles has plenty enough ~specialness~ to call him a MarySue. That said, I can find a well written fic with a Mary Sue quite enjoyable to read. I like powerful characters and ~specialness~ as a guilty pleasure though they are usually paired with bad writing. But this has good writing and all kinds of guilty-pleasureness to it. This might sound a bit like an anti-rec, but it’s not. If you enjoy OTT bamf-Stiles, I felt this one was quite entertaining to read.
