marguerite_26I have a doctor’s appointment today. Keep your fingers crossed for me. Feels like I’ve been barely functional since November and really it’s time to just get better now. People here are all like ‘You should have gotten the flu shot!’ WELL I caught the flu before the flu shot clinics opened and haven’t been able to shake it. so fuck off. I really wish I had the energy to take down my christmas decorations tho. :(
ANYWAY.
I make odd choices when I’m sick. Somehow yesterday I made the choice to start reading WIPs. I have no idea WHY. I hate WIPs. I get too invested in stories and it makes me insane to stop and know there is no answer to ‘what happens next’ until the author at some random date (or possibly NEVER) decides to post again. And then that chapter might be 500 words of filler and I feel worse than I did before. And yet... and started WIP after WIP yesterday. I blame it on feeling sorry for myself. Like when you eat an entire bag of Halloween sized Mars bars even though you know you’ll regret it.
So. Here are the WIPs that are now eating my brain.
Prince Among Wolves by tylerfucklin (zimothy)
Derek/Stiles | written so far: 61k (13/?) | NC-17
--Looking for full day/evening sitter. 2 twin boys age 4. Must have exp. w/werewolves. Must be human. No pedophiles. No teenage girls. Pay negotiable. --
Let us Stray 'til Break of Day by Loz
Derek/Stiles | written so far: 41k (13/16) | NC-17
Derek decides the best way to get Scott to join his pack is to seduce Stiles first. Derek makes terrible decisions.
Park and Edifice by Unloyal_Olio
Derek/Stiles | written so far: 21k (6/15) | NC-17
Stiles likes to walk through Central Park. One of the rangers there is a proud, unpleasant sort of man.
Dangerous Desires by VioletHyena
Derek/Stiles | written so far: 27k (13/15) | NC-17
Derek’s doppelganger seduces Stiles and Stiles asks the real Derek out on a date. Derek has no clue what he’s talking about and they soon discover that there is an incubus like creature stalking Beacon Hills.
According to Plans by eldee
Derek/Stiles | 51k (5/6) | NC-17
Five times Stiles and Derek pretend to be boyfriends, and the one time they didn't have to pretend at all. (Or: in which Stiles' plan for senior year is completely ruined by a supernatural creature stalking him.)
COME TALK TO ME!!! ARE YOU FOLLOWING THESE??? What other wips should I put myself at the mercy of now that I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole???
These are not really ~recs... I really dislike reccing WIPs because well... haven't we all finished a fic and wanted to take back that kudos we left on chapter 3???? ._. so you know... so... grain of salt and all that.
eta:
ACK!!! I forgot the one that started all this!!!
Indelible Marks by billtheradish
Derek/Stiles | written so far: 46k (15/?) | PG-13
The house never burned. The pack is strong. Derek will never need to be the alpha, and his sister is a troll. (Actually, most of his family is like that.)
Derek is an apprentice tattoo artist, and Stiles isn't old enough to get ink of his own yet. But that doesn't stop him from being interesting...
(Story will update weekly, on Mondays, up until it catches up with my buffer.)

Date: 2013-01-10 05:01 pm (UTC)Rory to my Amy counts as one of my all-time favourite Sterek fics. It starts with Permanent Fixture which is complete - http://archiveofourown.org/works/518387 - Author says there are two more parts left and should be complete soon.
The last one is just light and fluffy and a very cute sheriff in it.
