"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"

"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."

"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."

"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.

"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."

"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."

"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.

"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.

"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."

"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."

Last year I finally had an excuse to illustrate this simple little Tumblr story I've had bookmarked forever for class.

You've heard of sunshine one and grumpy one ship, but what about sarcasm4sarcasm ship?

Thank you @catasterisms!

Derek+Stiles+fairies = love spell

"Make love to me," Derek demands.

Stiles and Derek break up over something stupid, but the thing is, they’re still each other’s best friend. So they can’t seem to stay away from each other even for a day, and Derek inevitably climbs back into Stiles’ window and eats ice cream with him while they watch The Notebook, and lets Stiles cry into his shoulder like the codependent people they are, as Stiles tries and fails to get over their break up. Then they get their heads out of their asses at last. 5k, fluff, angst, humor, break-up, getting back together

Stiles and Derek break up on a Friday night over something stupid. The thing is, though — they're inevitable. They're mates, even without the mating bite. Wolves mate for life, and so does Stiles.

But Stiles isn't thinking clearly now, so he leaves Derek's loft after their fight and goes back to his childhood bedroom to cry and call Scott. Scott, predictably, doesn't pick up. So Stiles cries himself to sleep, alone.

Derek paces the loft, stewing and angry and concerned, when he feels something stirring in his chest; pack bonds. He focuses in on it, and the feeling leads him back to Stiles. Something's wrong. No matter what happens between them, Stiles is still pack. So Derek drives over to the Stilinski house, parks across the street, and climbs up onto the roof effortlessly.

He can smell Stiles' grief and heartbreak, familiar because it matches his own. The salty stench of tears fills the room and it kills Derek to know it's all his fault. He longs to reach out, comfort the boy, but it doesn't seem like the right move, especially not so soon. There's no ominous threat, no danger to Stiles' life; he's not in trouble. It's only angst.

So Derek crouches on top of the roof and stays there the whole night. He listens to Stiles' quiet crying and the crickets chirping in the grass and the wind rustling the trees, and watches over the boy, so close to him, yet so very far.

Stiles please…

Going to college was exciting and new, a chance for new friends and a fresh start, and the best part was, there was a supernatural fraternity on campus, meaning Scott finally had the freedom to be himself.

Then he met the resident human who came with a stalker alpha. What was the point of a supernatural fraternity if he still had to pretend to be human. And seriously, did Stiles ever fall asleep somewhere normal?

The next time Stiles comes home he notices the jeep is gone. His dad gets home before he can fully panic and lets him know Derek has the jeep. Stiles is super confused why Derek of all people would have his jeep. After seeing the look on his face his dad tells him Derek opened an auto shop. Stiles is shocked not that he didn’t expect Derek to live so normally but he’s actually doing something that makes himself happy.

Stiles takes his dad’s car to Hale Auto and sees his jeep in the front. He notices the new tires and rims before he opens the hood and sees brand new parts everywhere. He’s never seen his mom’s car is such good condition. Derek notices him first but doesn’t move. Stiles turns around and gives him a tighter hug than the normal Stilinski hug. Neither of them let go for a while. Stiles pushed away first and says thank you with his eyes tearing up.

🥺🥺🥺

⬆️Literal look Stiles gives him

I choose to believe Stiles still keeps a roll of duct tape in his car (and Derek won't admit it, but he's a little bitter about it), however, he never needs it.

Is this my old shape, my mind is away How long have you been gone? The cold winter aged the soft of your face And I can’t move on

He looks kinda skinny and gangly as a teen. He squirms and yelps and is super ticklish and his pain tolerance isn’t that high and he’s squeamish and doesn’t like needles or chopped off limbs or even blood really.

So everyone is kinda stunned when he starts throwing punches that topples werewolves to the floor. He trains with the betas and they still have more advantages than him of course, but it’s not easy to take him down.
