fic rec! 1.2M Teen Wolf Series featuring...at lot
Summary (for story one): Stiles deals with the aftermath of being abducted by Peter Hale and left for dead. It's harder than he would have thought to accept his place in the pack when he's convinced that he's the 'weak one' and can't protect himself. Fortunately, Scott and Sheriff Stilinski are there to help, and to nag Derek until he helps, too.
Comments: I keep forgetting the actual name of this series and keep calling it 'the boy in red' instead, based on the reputation Stiles builds over the course of 15 stories.
This landed in my lap as a rec because Derek is asexual in this fic - eventually in a romantic relationship with Stiles while Stiles pursues a physical relationship with Erica. A lot of those good scenes about Derek's identity and how the relationship forms aren't in the actual canon stories but the fic at the end that's a series of companion tales.
No, the canon series is just good, clean fun adventure staring human alpha!Stiles and oh is he devious. These stories are amazing, with the pack tackling everything from Peter Hale to rogue sorcerers to fae to getting deep into hunter politics in an attempt to destroy a 'kill on site' mentality toward wolves.
There's also a lot of mental health discussions - the author doesn't shy away from anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, or phobias. You see characters struggle, you see them get therapy, see them learn how to cope. You get the good times and the bad times and I loved every single paragraph of this series.
It's embarrassing how often I fell asleep reading it.
