Title: The Mating Rituals of Alphas
Pairing: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Sure, Derek was born an alpha but he's never been good at all that dominant behavior that's expected of him, and even though the adults around him tell him to be himself, he worries that he'll never claim an omega if he doesn't get it together. But his omega actually already claimed him, years ago.
Warning: (skip) Omegaverse. Mentions of past and future mpreg.

Length: 10,000 words
Notes: More omegaverse! If you want the world building, please see The Migratory Patterns of Omegas (Lydia/Erica) but basically mating season is in the spring of junior year of high school, and most alphas and omegas claim then. There isn't any actual mpreg in this story, but there are mentions of past mpreg (the sheriff and Derek's dad) and future mpreg (Laura's mate and Stiles).
Thank you SO MUCH to verity for her endless and untiring support and her lovely beta job, and for holding my hand through writing this particular trope. Also huge thanks to affectingly and radioaches for their enthusiasm and everyone who held my hand through the writing of this story.

( Oh my god! How much more of a weirdo am I going to be? )

Title: The Only One That's Ever Known How
Pairing: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski
Rating: PG-13
Summary: Just because Derek is very patiently waiting doesn't mean he can't court with housewares in the meantime.
Warning: (skip) None! Some housewares porn.
Length: 1900 words
Notes: Derek's POV on Scott McCall Is an Awesome Friend and Do You Want It On Your Biscuits, Baby? Prompted by Katemonster giving me literal puppy dog eyes when I said I should write more second base fic, which this is. Title from "The Waiting" by Tom Petty. Thanks to verity, as usual, for giving this the once-over.

( He knew that eighteen was an arbitrary number decided on by some people in Sacramento before he was even born, that it wasn't like Stiles was going to magically become a better decision maker on April 9th than he'd been on April 8th. )

Title: Where We Ought To Be
Pairing: Derek Hale/Stiles Stilinski; also Scott McCall/Allison Argent
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Stiles Stilinski has just been created a magician, like his mother before him and her father before her, but now he's a little bit at loose ends. So at the suggestion of his mentor Deaton, he takes a position with a very young alpha werewolf, Derek Hale, to protect his pack while he heads into the city in search of a mate. That the stern Derek would be displeased by Stiles's unorthodox methods (wolves training with hunters? unheard of!) is to be expected. That Derek would start looking a little closer to home for his mate is more of a surprise.
Warning: (skip) None.
Length: 20,400 words
Notes: Written for the teenwolf_bb. Thanks very much to goss for choosing this story and doing such brilliant art which can be seen in this art post.
This is obviously a they're-still-werewolves AU, this time with more magic, less hiding from society, and all of the "I belong to the land" feels that this rural-bred girl could pour into it. Title is from the Shaker hymn "Simple Gifts."
THANK YOU to verity for cheerleading and shepherding this story from concept through its execution; I doubt it would exist without her help and support. Thanks also to affectingly for her valuable input and reassurance, to weepingnaiad for brainstorming a title with me, and also to everyone at Wincon who expressed enthusiasm for the story.

( Maybe a houseful of werewolves would be the perfect re-entry to society. After all, how bad of an alpha could Derek Hale be? )

Title: Scott McCall Is an Awesome Friend
Pairing: Teen Wolf: Stiles Stilinski/Derek Hale, Scott McCall/Allison Argent
Rating: PG
Summary: Scott figures since Stiles was such a (mostly) awesome friend when he was getting together with Allison, now that Stiles has a maybe boyfriend he should try to be a (mostly) awesome friend back.
Warning: (skip) None!
Length: 1600 words
Notes: Posted some time ago on tumblr as "In Which Scott Is an Awesome Friend, Mostly." Revised slightly to be in line with "Do You Want It on Your Biscuits, Baby?" Thanks so much to everyone who read this on tumblr the first time around; your enthusiasm gave me the confidence to keep writing Teen Wolf!

( Hey, is it still second base if you're like, dudes? )

Title: Driving in Cars with Boys
Pairing: Teen Wolf: Stiles Stilinski/Derek Hale
Rating: PG
Summary: Stiles isn't sure how he fits into Derek's leather-jacketed Camaro-driving hot guy aesthetic.
Warning: (skip) None!
Length: 300 words
Notes: Prompted by this photo set on tumblr. Companion piece to "Hands-On." Possibly the first TW I wrote. Apologies for the cliche of the title but it just kinda fits.

( You have to admit, it's a total cliche )
