Hello all! Here are my fic recs for the week! As always, mind the tags and archive warnings, and be kind to yourselves!
If you’re bookmarking fics to read later, and see something you think you’ll really like, DOWNLOAD IT. There was a story I read this week that the author has deleted from AO3, but I just happened to save a copy way back before that happened so I could come back to it. Sometimes you can find stuff on the Wayback Machine, but it’s better to be safe than sorry (and really, text files are tiny, get a usb drive or something and fill it up)!
In Name Only by Cobrilee | 15K | E | Derek/Stiles

And The World Was Gone by Casspiration | 21.4K | M | Derek/Stiles
Stiles' mother and father were killed by a rogue alpha when he only five, leaving him bitten and alone. He was taken in by the Hales, and werewolf life is the only one he has truly ever known. The Hale house is burned when he is ten, and almost all of his second family is taken from him.

One Hale of a 'Verse by whatthehale | 21.5K | Works: 2 | M | Derek/Stiles
Stiles in bed isn’t really something Derek should be thinking about.
Because the person who normally picks Lily up from school? Is Scott.
Lily’s other parent. And Stiles’s partner.
Not to mention the entire source of Derek’s current misery.
AKA, the one in which Derek thinks Scott and Stiles are in a relationship and that they want to threesome with Derek.
Spoiler Alert? They aren't and they don't.

Derek is a wolfish cyborg, brother of the Governor of California, heir to the Hale fortune. Stiles is a un-sequenced human in a world of designer DNA. When Derek is forced to choose a mate, no one expects him to choose Stiles. To be fair, Derek doesn't expect him to say no.
