constantly making airy offhand comments to my preferred younger son about how he’s next in line for the throne after his brother but he still hasn’t killed my detested firstborn for me. kids these days have no fucking initiative.

Another year in the books! We didn’t get the outcome we hoped for but what we did was incredible!

Thank you @halinski and @boymeetswerewolf for once again being the best partners ever.

And that's that folks!

Happy Sterek Week ☺🧡💙

Life caught up to us this year and we didn't get as much engagement as hoped but even I, Halinski, didn't get to write as much as I wanted because of real life developments, unfortunately. None of that is to say that we are discouraged or not going to try make this a better experience next year and hopefully liven up the fandom. We love the ship and hope to help keep it sailing :)

Much thanks and appreciation goes out to following blogs for creating amazing works that have astounded me so far !!! Your contributions have made this an astounding success and have brought me such joy 😍

October 27th: Sterek Week Day 3 - Applied Science (Sun) / Forbidden Magic (Moon)

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." - Arthur C. Clarke

or

Is Stiles secretly full of magic? Maybe being a spark is a forbidden thing? Are werewolves magic creatures hiding in the dark? It's time to explore the darker side of the supernatural and magic.

October 25th: Sterek Week Day 1 - Open Secrets (Sun) / Hidden Truths (Moon)

The man who can keep a secret may be wise, but he is not half as wise as the man with no secrets to keep." –Edgar Watson Howe

Could Stiles and Derek be in a relationship to the shock of the pack - one that maybe they weren't even trying to hide? Or maybe the people of Beacon Hills really do know about the supernatural, they just aren't saying anything.

or

Derek has always been the king of privacy, but maybe Stiles is determined to discover the truth of what's going on with him. Or maybe there is more to Stiles than meets the eye, something Derek wants to uncover. On a lighter note, their hidden truth could be secret relationship they are keeping from the pack.

Whether those around them are just not talking about it or the truth really is hidden, we cannot wait to see what direction you take this.
