Teen Wolf Fic Recs Part 4: Sterek
These are Sterek, Stiles Stilinski/Derek Hale fanfictions.
I really love these. They are some of my favourite Sterek stories, and ALL of these are absolutely beautiful. Without a doubt. Send the authors some love, because that's what they've given me and us right here. :)
If there is a problem with any of the links, let me know and I will fix them.
For appropriate reading check the hashtags on the actual fics.
I hope you enjoy these as much as I did.
And check out my other Steter fic recs [Part 1] and [Part 2] and Sterek fic recs [Part 3]

God Brings The Wounded by CallieB on Archive of Our Own
Words: 4938
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
“Jesus,” Stiles says, when he sees Derek for the first time, and feels his face do that thing where it tries to smile. Derek, or the weirdly fresh-faced teenage version of Derek that he is now, doesn’t flinch at Stiles’ exclamation.
He’s too busy flinching at everything else.
Requested by the lovely nohomohomie, who asked for something angsty post-nogitsune.
Has got to be one of my favourite canon teenage/de-aged Derek fics, with beautiful, angsty Sterek, of course.

You're Not You by CallieB on Archive of Our Own
Words: 5266
Chapters: 1/1
Part 9 of the Sterek Bingo 2017 series
Summary:
Stiles lifts his head slowly, meeting Derek’s gaze. His eyes… they’re always clever, bright, perceptive, but today there’s something in them that Derek doesn’t recognise. He’s pale, but not defeated. He looks stronger than Derek expected. And unexpectedly, he feels it flash through him in a bolt of absolute, though surprised, certainty.
That's not Stiles.
Written for the Dark!Stiles square on my Sterek Bingo card.
This story is possibly one of the best EVER Void!Stiles stories I have ever read. The idea is complex and fascinating and unique. After I read this for the first time I was left stunned and I kept coming back to it in my mind as well as to read because I couldn't get over the idea. It's beautiful.

Yeah, Pass The Salt, Stiles by CallieB on Archive of Our Own
Words: 3609
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Yeah, pass the salt, Stiles.
They're not particularly inspiring words. Not like the long stream of goo spilling over Scotty's arm. But somewhere, Stiles' soulmate is out there, waiting to say them to him.
If only he could stop thinking about the mysterious hot stranger he met in the woods...

Behind Locked Doors by isthatbloodonhisshirt (wasterella) on Archive of Our Own
Words: 11128
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Derek often showed up in his room—at least he used the fucking door now that he knew where the spare key was hidden—and he couldn’t escape people in general in the Jeep since they could see him through the window. His dad was home, and when he wasn’t, there was always the risk of other people showing up.
His bathroom, on the other hand? No, his bathroom was a small room with no window in the middle of the house with a lockable door and no judgement. He could sit in the bathroom for hours, and no one would question it. Was he watching porn on his phone and jerking off? Was he taking a massive dump? Did he have constipation? Was he stitching up the millionth injury of the month in private? Who knew? No one but Stiles!
The locked door at his back felt like a safety net for him sometimes. In the bathroom, he didn’t have to pretend. He didn’t have to smile and wave people’s words off, insist he was fine, laugh and act like everything was okay. In the bathroom, he was allowed to sit on the floor, his expression tight, and his body falling apart on him.

Should Have Looked on Craigslist by Akiruchan on Archive of Our Own
Words: 27217
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Derek is rash and self-sacrificing, everything that will one day get him killed. Stiles doesn't want that. He's become too accustomed to a life with Derek Hale in it. To live without, well, it just doesn't seem to be an option.
or...
The five times Stiles' expectations fall short, and the one time he's glad they do.
This is an incredible, slow burn, build of the winding relationship between Stiles and Derek and the world they now live in, side by side. It's wonderful and blessedly long.

Lend Me Your Eyes, Give Me Your Heart by Ankiruchan on Archive of Our Own
Words: 3057
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Stiles’ life sucks. He’s honest enough with himself to admit to at least that. More often than not he spends his free time running for his life, saving people from creatures who want to rip his face off, and all around having a distinct lack of self-preservation. It sort of comes with the territory. Not something he can avoid when his circle of friends happen to be werewolves.
**********
Nobody's Fault But Mine by Akiruchan on Archive of Our Own
Words: 26552
Chapters: 4/?
Summary:
Stiles has always been good at ignoring his problems. Preferring to wait them out until they are nothing but a distant memory. But when a midnight stroll leads to a nasty scratch to Stiles side, courtesy of Derek, Stiles finds that some things just can't be ignored, not that he doesn't try. Better hearing and improved eyesight, that is something he can ignore for now. The sudden urge to touch and smell Derek all the time? Not so much.
This is werewolf!Stiles, and it's one the of the laid back, kind, intense versions that I enjoy very much. Unfortunately, I think it's been discontinued, but I believe even so, these 4 chapters are worth the little heartbreak that comes with the knowledge it may not be finished.

Lock All The Doors Behind You by entanglednow on Archive of Our Own
Words: 25960
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
He has no idea what you're supposed to say when you find one of your...werewolf acquaintances, completely out of their mind, growling like they're about to see what your insides taste like. There's no handbook for this. Stiles is thinking that if he survives he might write one.
I've come back to this so many times. The relationship is so vulnerable, down to earth and open and kind, extremely kind, which is something Derek really lacks in his life, someone to be kind to him. There's a feeling, somehow, that this is quite natural for them.

You want forgiveness (I'll give that to you) by dearericbittle (dutchmoxie) on Archive of Our Own
Words: 2806
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Derek is running from the Alpha, suffering from wolfsbane poisoning and he’s clearly losing it. Why else would he be seeing his mother - and everyone else he might as well have killed himself. But Stiles can’t just let him get what he deserves. Stiles never leaves him behind, even when he should.

Words: 96199
Chapters: 9/9
Summary:
First Son Stiles Stilinski just accidentally caused an international incident. And apparently the only way to save human-werewolf relations is to marry him off to Prince Derek of Triskele. Stiles is going to need all of his acting skills to make the marriage look real, because the Prince is kind of a fucking asshole.

fake empire by Poe on Archive of Our Own
Words: 3685
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
Stiles hadn’t meant for any of this to happen. He was going to tell Derek. The whole truth of it. He was halfway through when the phone rang. A half-finished sentence, left hanging in the air as his life crumbled around him.

(or: Stiles gets so, so lost. But he finds himself again.)

you all over me by Poe on Archive of Our Own
Words: 3705
Chapters: 1/1
Summary:
The thing about Stiles is, Derek thinks, is that he has no idea how enthralling he truly is. He’s easy to overlook, right up until the point he isn’t, and at some stage, Derek started looking, and now, it’s all he can do.
(or: the one where the pack is happy, healthy and alive, and Stiles and Derek are sort of inevitable)

Hear The Wheels As They Roll by crossroadswrite on Archive of Our Own
Words: 44919
Chapters: 2/2
Summary:
“You can’t be here. This is private property,” someone calls out and for some reason that voice sounds painfully familiar.
When it hits him why, Stiles almost chokes with the realization, “Derek Hale,” he says, unbelievably happy because he remembers Derek when they were young.
Derek looks grumpier, sadder, angrier. Stiles can’t really fault him for that. He also looks surprised that Stiles knows who he is. He squint/glares suspiciously at him, his nostrils flare for a second before he widens his eyes almost dramatically.
“Stiles,” he says quietly, like he can’t really believe it.
Stiles beams, “Yeah, you remember me!”

‘sup my dudes ! it’s ya boy yves sliding into the group after eyeing this bad boy for quite some time , and i’m super excited to be here . i’m not even gonna lie to ya’ll ... this intro is headass as fuck and my son is hell in a hand basket ( maybe that’s why his name is khaos ? lmao ) . anyways , i’m super excited to be here and to introduce ya’ll to my son , and i’ll be sharing my discord 𝐝𝐨𝐣𝐚 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡��� 𝑐𝑎𝑡 .#4437 just in case anyone would prefer to plot there . uhhh , ya’ll should be warned that this intro is pretty long and also kinda link heavy , but you don’t have to click them if you don’t want to ! it’s mainly because i’m an extra bitch and wasn’t to provide ya’ll with VISUALS .

( his parents had his criminal record expunged to protect the family name . )

𝐢. 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 .
born in a moderately comfortable home in chicago , il , marcus banks never really knew what he wanted to do . he could have been the first in his family to go to college , especially since his father went into the army right after high school and his mom worked at a mac counter in the mall to give herself something to do instead of being a stay at home mom . when he was in high school , marcus was the quarterback for his school’s team , but he had no interest in playing football in college . he does end up going , and manages to get himself into prestigious hbcu morehouse college in atlanta , georgia . marcus discovered that he was unhappy at morehouse and dropped out , so like most twenty year olds with nothing to his name and a single ticket to new york , marcus somehow managed to get a position as an intern at uptown records .
marcus worked his way up from intern and eventually became a talent director , and this is when he discovered his own passion for music as well as how exciting it was to help develop talent . while at uptown records , marcus had a hand in developing a lot of the talent from the 90s , such as jodeci and mary j . blige . marcus’s time at uptown came to an end when he decided that he wanted to start his own label , which he called kingdom records . through those years , he helped to manage and produce tons of popular artists from the late 90s and early 2000s . although marcus enjoyed his time as a producer and he watched as his wealth grew , he also knew that he wanted to have a wife and children .
he married his wife , jada long , after they met when she came in with her girl - group to become the next big trio . while the trio’s career didn’t take off , jada managed to find love with marcus and they married after six months of dating . after being married for three years , they welcomed their first child , a son named isaiah born in 1993 . in 1995 , jada and marcus were originally expecting twins , but one of them absorbed the other , so that explains why the couple decided to name their second son khaos . the couple had one more child , a daughter they named mariah , in 1999 . marcus and jada settled with their family in los angeles , where their company expanded and marcus started his own music career .
originally , critics were skeptical because he was known for managing and producing , not rapping , but he released his debut album in 2001 and let’s just say that critics were floored . the album debuted at number one and went 2x platinum , earning him his first grammy nomination . marcus continuously released music throughout the 2000s and even into the 2010s , which has earned him 18 grammy wins and received the commemorative ‘ salute to industry icons ’ in 2017 . marcus has since retired from music after touring a few times , and now mainly cites himself as a businessman . he is the head of banks enterprises , which is the umbrella com[any for his restaurants , fashion line , liquor brand , and he eventually went into television production as well .
as for their son khaos , he’s got a sick case of middle child syndrome . while growing up , he always felt overshadowed by his brother who went into the music industry and even by his younger sister as she had a natural talent for gymnastics . when he was in high school , khaos played football because it made sense , but he wasn’t as passionate about it as his father . football was never an interest to khaos , and he never had an interest in attending college for it either ( sound familiar ? ) he wanted time to figure out who he was and things of the sort , but his dad was a stubborn man who barely let him decide what he wanted despite the fact that he allowed it for his other children . khaos never really knew how to tell his dad that he didn’t want a life as some pro - baller , so he started hanging around the wrong people .
when it started , khaos primarily hot - boxed in his car with his friends , stayed out for far too long , and occasionally got busted in the mansions that were up for sale in their neighborhoods . to him , it was all fun and games , but the laughs came to a halt when his father picked him up fueled with rage and his mother had tears in her eyes because he was ‘ headed down a dark path ’ . of course , khaos never took heed to what his parents had to say about anything , so he continued to act up ( you can get snatched up ) and when he was eighteen his parents had had enough when he was placed on probation for two and a half years for reckless driving and drag racing .
the heads of the banks household decided that they would have khaos complete his probation in chicago , and was made to stay with his grandmother for the duration . of course , khaos was mad about it , but he decided that he wouldn’t stay in chicago once it was over . he was supposed to return to california , but somehow managed to convince his parents that he’d be better off moving to new�� york , and so they let him .
𝐢𝐢. 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 .
now , he lives in new york and pretends like he’s the ‘ changed ’ son that his parents want . in reality he’s just doing whatever the hell he wants because his parents made sure that the media didn’t discover that he was going in and out of jail and on probation for a period of time . he mainly lives the life of a socialite , taking random excursions around the world when he feels like it and popping up in the tabloids because he’s having another club night escapade .
𝐢𝐢𝐢. 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 .
khaos is pretty much the epitome of a spoiled rich boy . he’s really arrogant , and thinks highly of himself but he’s not really in your face about it . it mostly can be seen in his aura / his energy as he’s not much of a talker in the first place . he doesn’t brag or boast about himself or his family’s wealth because well ... there’s no need for that . as soon as people hear the ‘ banks ’ last name , they automatically know who he is .
he’s the most charming man ! he’s really chill and he really likes conversation , so watch as he fills it with compliments but mainly to get what he wants . if he’d being honest , he gets his charm from his father , even though he doesn’t really want to admit it , and he gets his incredible sense of humor from his mother so chances are , he’s gonna get what he wants .
uh , he’s an asshole , too ? like he tends to think he’s not , but he doesn’t really care for his dad and borderline would beat his ass if he had the chance to . he’s not an asshole outright where he’s a standoffish dick face , but khaos does have his moments where his temper won’t be as mellow as it usually is .
𝐢𝐯. 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬 .
his family owns a few houses around the united states . they have their main house in hidden hills , their house in chicago , two vacation homes in aspen and southampton , and a more ‘ modest ’ home in beverly hills . khaos lives in a loft - style duplex condo in greenwich village .
it’s my dream car ( rip to tesla ig lol ) , but khaos drives primarily a porsche taycan . it’s the main car he drives in nyc , but back home in california he has a fleet of cars ranging from a range rover , bentley bentayga , rolls - royce phantom , a ferrari 548 italian spider , and the beautiful bugatti chiron .
his fashion sense is primarily streetwear . he likes to dabble into luxury sportswear as well , but mainly sticks to brands like supreme , commes des garcones , balenciaga , vetements , supreme , off - white , alexander wang , etc .
this is so headass and it fits his aesthetic lmao , but khaos wears a an eight tooth grill ( both top and bottom ) every single day . ofc he takes them out to be cleaned / brush his teeth , but he never leaves the house without them and they’re valued at $45k each .
mostly because he’s annoying , his favorite thing to eat is cronuts and he’d literally fly back to los angeles for the vegan cronuts at donut farm . that being said , he is vegan but not annoying about it ... at least i don’t think he is lmao .
a feminist ! specifically , an intersectional feminist and he's gone to the women’s march in nyc every year since he made the official move , and uh , probably got arrested during a peaceful protest when the ab*rtion bill became a thing .
#wealthyhq:intro#i still have HELLA to do#so i'll be messaging and / or responding to mssgs#after i do my theme and such !

Top 5 Ostrava games ?
Ummm, that’s hard. It’s not like I remember entire games, rather I remember that something special happened during them. This will be long, btw. I love my stories.
1. Ostrava - Znojmo (May 2017) - Back to the 1st League
I don’t even know why this one is my favorite. But it was the first match since 2004 (our title year) that was an opportunity to celebrate something. We got relegated for the first time in nearly 70 years, and our club was just done. Done. Then we got a new owner, and a very, very controversial coach (who actually spent some time in a mental asylum because he got addicted to gambling during his time in Petersburg, yeah). And this coach came and looked everyone in the eyes and said “We’ll be back in the league in a year.” We were pretty traumatized from all the years prior to that, and we were like “Ha ha ha, okay, maybe five years.” But no. The year in the 2nd league was a fairy tale. Imagine witnessing a phoenix being reborn, that’s how it felt. We drove through it so smoothly, and were holding onto the 2nd place (Olomouc were still kind of another level) comfortably... except then... we choked. We lost a 9 points advantage we had over Opava, and here we are, playing our last match against Znojmo, and it’s win or die. And what’s with the daring predictions, a player who is no top scorer by any means says before the match: “There’s no way we’re losing this.” and we are like “Suuuure, boy.” Guess what, this boy scores the first goal. And I’m like “Boy, you score another and I’m taking off my shirt.” He effin’ did, so I’m on the tribune jumping in my bra, waving the shirt above my head (I said if he scored a hattrick, I’d take off the bra as well, but that didn’t happen). Anyways, we win, and the speaker goes: “Please, don’t run on the pitch, the players will come to celebrate later on the parking lot...” Bitch, I wanna be with my boys - he wasn’t done speaking when I was jumping over that fence, and the security were of course very chill (because you’re not stopping 5 thousand people who have decided to have a party on the pitch). We also had the celebration on the parking lot, don’t worry. Free beer and all. I don’t drink beer, but it was nice of them.
2. Ostrava - Sparta Prague (April 2018) - Beating Sparta at home after 10 years
Okay, so Sparta is our biggest rival. Some might say it’s Opava, and I get it, because we fight over who is the king of Silesia (WE ARE), but we really don’t like Sparta. We’re not friends with Slavia either, but it’s not hate, and we don’t really give a damn about the other two Prague clubs, Dukla and Bohemians, but we hate hate hate Sparta. You go from our club to Sparta and you’re dead. Or you’re not dead, but Milan Baroš has to vouch for you saying “please, dear fans, he’s just a stupid child, he didn’t know what he was doing, don’t kill him!” and hold you around your shoulders, and then you have to have a long talk with the fans, wait a couple months, and score some goals, and then we will maybe forgive you and take you back (that’s what my favorite did - stupid, stupid boy). Anyway, we usually don’t beat Sparta. And especially not at home - it hadn’t happened in 10 years before this match. BUT THEN IT DID. We were leading TWICE, but then it was 2:2. And in the 86th minute Milan fucking Baroš scored the 3:2 goal with his head. The stadium EXPLODED. It was insane. We didn’t even know what was happening, it was so intense. The ref of course gave Sparta like an hour of prolongation, because it’s Sparta. It was terrible. We couldn’t even sit anymore, we just stood there, and I think we sang our anthem, and then I prayed Our Father over and over again (I do this a lot at football matches, sometimes the whole rosary when I can’t take the nerves anymore because it calms me down), and then came the final whistle, and I just fell on my seat and started to cry hysterically. I literally couldn’t calm down. It was so beautiful, and I’ll remember it until I die.
3. Ostrava - Slavia Prague (September 2018) - Winning in 10
It was a nice, sunny day, a match against Slavia like any other (which means we were bound to lose, because, hehe, Slavia is a different level *whispers* money). But things got crazy. Crazy crazy. It’s the 10th minute, and Milan Baroš commits a foul. Um, yeah, he does, let’s admit that. An elbow. The ref gives him a yellow. But then, the 4th ref (who can’t set his foot in this city anymore) tells him to go consult VAR. He does. And gives Milan a red card. Milan being Milan (I swear to you, he’s the sweetest person off the pitch... but on the pitch, he’s a monster) tells the ref something along the likes of “You fucked up the match, you fucking c*nt!” and other things, during his approximately 3 minutes long rant prior to leaving the pitch (he got a 6 match ban after that, that’s how bad that rant was). We are in 10, we don’t have our top player, and we think that we are royally fucked. NO. The team decides that they will FUCKING WIN THIS FOR MILAN. The crowd decides that we will HAUNT SLAVIA TO THEIR GRAVE. The remaining 80 minutes are hell on earth. They never, never stood a chance. We massacred them. The crowd was so hyped, like, I was so hyped that I could have killed someone. If Milan Baroš showed up on the tribune and told me to kill the ref or one of the Slavia players, I’d probably jump onto the pitch and strangle them with my bare hands. If you don’t know what deindividuation in a crowd is, that was it. It was so intense that even our coach got sent off - our coach is a former teacher and he literally never gets mad or violent or anything, but he was sent off. We won 2:1. Nobody knows what happened here. Everyone was traumatized. And we will surely be telling our children and grand-children about this match.
4. Ostrava - Zlín (February 2016) - Winning for Pavel
Okay, this match wasn’t special in terms of football (I don’t remember anything that happened on the pitch), but I’ll always remember it. It was the match where we said goodbyes to our former goalkeeper, Pavel Srniček, who died in December 2015, actually a day after my birthday. I attended the traditional “New Year’s Eve Match” that is played every year, and that year it was on December 27th, and Pavel was already in hospital, and we were chanting his name there and sending positive energy. I couldn’t even imagine that day that he would be gone in two days. It was even harder for me because we played tennis at the same club, always in the early mornings in the same hall, neighboring courts, and we would exchange balls that flew over the net separating the courts and laugh all the time - it was just a constant in my life, that thing you just really feel isn’t there when the person is gone. Anyways, this match was the first match home we played since his death, and the club made a video homage to him that they played in half-time on the big screens. As I was standing there watching it, tears rolling down my cheeks, an elderly man was passing through the stands, and he just stopped and clipped me on the shoulder, and walked away - a moment I’ll remember forever. This was the season we got relegated, and we lost literally everything we could have lost, but this match we won 3:0, out of the blue. Look at this:
Strange, right? I’m probably the thickest person when it comes to spiritual stuff, I’m the first one to tell you things like that don’t exist, but that day, I simply felt that Pavel was there with us. He was there and nobody will convince me it’s not true.
5. Ostrava - České Budějovice (February 2013) - Milan Baroš’s Comeback
This was the match when Milan Baroš came back to Ostrava after 11 years. Which made me feel very old, too, since unlike the excited kids around, I remembered when he left. Ahem. I don’t even remember the score, I think it was a draw, but it was freezing cold (February, eh) and the staff had to literally clean 1 meter of snow from the pitch and the stands (open stadium, where half of it didn’t have roof, so), and there were piles of snow everywhere. Which we promptly used to make snowballs and throw them at the opponents when they were about to take corner kicks... it was fun. We had a special presentation for Milan, and I had a picture of it, but I can’t find it now. Anyways, I like the memory of this one.

Holiday Shopping For The UFC’s Dozen Weight Classes
Joey
December 20th, 2018
The HAPPIEST of holidays to you and yours and I hope whatever you’re celebrating turns out to be the best one yet. This time of year isn’t every for everybody so if you’re a dude or lady out there struggling, remember that there’s always help to be found out there. If the holidays got ya down then don’t feel weak going out there getting yourself the help you need to make it through. We are, as they say, in this together and there are probably more folks out there just like you than ya realize. On the other hand, if you’re like me and this time of year is your favorite time of the year then here’s hoping these last five anticipatory days aren’t too gruesome for ya. Hopefully you did your shopping early enough to where it’s all about the waiting game and you aren’t that guy who waits to the last minute, runs into a CVS and grabs your mom or dad the first gift card that catches your eye on the rack.
MMA in 2018 was...strange and like most of combat sports, filled with plenty of unfulfilled wishes and genuinely cool moments overall. For all we gripe, I’d argue that ONE, Bellator, UFC, PFL and *insert regional organizaton here* delivered enough that we as fans should’ve been satisfied. For as much as we may gripe about the UFC, there’s zero doubt that they gave us plenty of good shit down the stretch of another long grueling schedule. With all of that laid bare, I wanted to do something different and instead of talking about what I want from MMA under my proverbial holiday tree, I’d spin it around and look at what each weight class in the UFC would be asking for. What does each weight class NEED for 2019?
Women's Strawweight
Big Gift: Finishes
The UFC's strawweight class has had it rough in 2018 which is weird because the talent level has never been higher. The hardcore journey into Asia has netted some new talent for the coffers from China and South Korea primarily plus Brazil churned out a collection of intriguing yet raw 115 lb fighters. The division also has seen a rise of domestic talents like Maycee Barber, Mackenzie Dern (She was BORN here so hush) and Tatiana Suarez all having fantastic years with proven names like Karolina K, Michelle Waterson, Jessica Andrade, Courtney Casey, Angela Hill and Tecia Torres stepping up. We even got a return from Cynthia Calvillo to further deepen what is a very talented and deep class. Even without Rose Namajunas, lost into early to mid 2019 due to neck problems, the division has seen plenty of damn good fights and intriguing names step up. The problem is that nobody in this division seemingly can finish fights. When news of the UFC's impending end of the flyweight division started circulating, statistics about finishes, punches thrown and knockdowns were floating around. Flyweights averaged the second lowest amount of finishes due to strikes, the second lowest percentage of finishes related to the number of strikes thrown per fight and finishes overall. The divisions behind flyweight in all those categories? Women's strawweight! There's a subculture of fans on twitter who make a killing taking the over on strawweight fights. At one point during the year, we had gone 12 straight strawweight fights without a finish. Deep into August, strawweight's finish per fight percentage was almost absurdly low. To the division's credit, the year has ended strong as we have had a 50% finish rate in all strawweight fights since UFC 228 in September. That doesn't make up for the total lack of finishes due to strikes but as a sub can be as fun as a TKO if we're being fair. The division has a wealth of talent, has seen some solid matchmaking and a decline in the importance of the grinder types who tend to slug their way through fifteen minute affairs. We're getting more athletes, more active fighters, less fighters who have a tendency to struggle in exchanges and just a better quality of MMA overall from the strawweights. Even accounting for talent taken for the 125 lb class, the health of this division seems strong. Just get folks finishing fights, keep giving us quality fights and get Rose back.
Stocking Stuffer: No weight cutting snafus
Flyweight
Big Gift: The Christmas Miracle
Simply put, the flyweight division needs a miracle. They got an extension on their life support with UFC on ESPN+ requiring a main event and TJ vs Cejudo getting bumped over. Those are temporary cures to a long term problem at flyweight; a problem that isn't going to be fixed with just one fight especially when MMA memories are fleeting. This division needs a new attitude, a new outlook and a new semblance of fan appreciation. You can be mad about Dana for a lot of things but he is 100% right when he says that he hopes the MMA media and their fans are as supportive of flyweight if it sticks around as they were when the Turk came around to claim the weight class. This division needs a Christmas miracle and the only person capable of delivering this is Henry Cejudo on January 19th. If Cejudo can't beat Dillsahw then this division probably does die a long painful drawn out death. Dillashaw would be a two time champion and the UFC would probably quietly nix the weight class rather than have yet another guy hogging up two belts. Cejudo remains the one man who can lengthen this division out. He has to beat Dillashaw and even that might just delay the inevitable. It has to be the sort of win that says that 125 lbs is only getting better with more talent inside of it than ever before. He has to basically blame Mighty Mouse for not taking the challenges the fans asked for and prove that flyweights aren't just smaller fighters but the best small fighters the UFC has.
Stocking Stuffer: A talker
Women's Flyweight
Big Gift: An identity
I suppose a hearty "Finally!" is owed to Valentina Shevchenko. After Nicco Montano struggled to heal up from a variety of injuries and ultimately missed weight, Valentina won her first ever UFC title with a decision win over Joanna Jedrzejczyk and got a jolt back into the UFC's floundering OTHER flyweight division. While she's not the champion that people want, she's the champion we got and Valentina is the sort of fighter who I imagine will have zero problems fighting anywhere 2-3 times a year in a division that could use a consistent champion. This division if anything needs stability and its own identity; something that can help clear the air of the stink that flyweight is just the scraps of 115 lbs and 135 lbs fighting out over a title nobody wanted but wound up getting in the name of inclusivity. It needs some sort of structure to be carved out the way that 115 lbs went through the growing pains of crafting its own hierarchy. It went from the TUF ladies to Joanna as this overpowering overconfident champion ruling over this division of young up and comers with something for everyone. There's no Ronda here to make everything relevant so the matchmaking and the women involved will need to do some heavy lifting. If flyweight turns into a "Who can Valentina 49-46 next?" then this division will be hopeless to ever go anywhere. It needs something that makes it stand out and fighters on the come up who can really present themselves differently.
Stocking Stuffer: Continued Depth
Bantamweight
Big Gift: Actual title fights
Stocking Stuffer: More Main Events
Over the past two years, we have had TWO bantamweight title fights. We had Cody vs TJ 1 in November of 2017 and Cody vs TJ 2 in August of 2018. This division has become such a tremendous hotbed for talent, earnest rivalries and developing unique fighters that it's a shame that the title picture has become so stagnant. Even if you were the kind of guy who got tired of Cruz vs Team Alpha Male, you gotta admit that was at least an angle that could reliably turn out consistent title fights. Cody vs TJ was obviously a financial hit but the counter argument is that the desire to stop and start and wait for the first fight then the rematch created what we have now. The division is clearly not helped by that plus we've also got a logjam now with TJ going down to 125 lbs to fight Cejudo in a super fight that's kinda not super at all given that IF ANYTHING the argument can be made that Cejudo is the guy more qualified within his own division as it pertains to having a reason FOR a super fight. TJ has an immediate #1 contender waiting on him in Moraes and while I believe he proved who the man was vs Raphael Assuncao in their last encounter, the fact remains they're tied up and a trilogy is a just fight. Not good or entertaining but a just fight. That doesn't even begin to account for fighters like Jimmie Rivera, Pedro Munhoz, Dominick Cruz, Aljamain Sterling and the winner of Petr Yan/Douglas Silva de Andrade as compelling title fights in the potentially near future. This division needs title fights next year; not one, not the promise of multiple ones but actual honest to goodness fresh compelling new title fights with fresh new challengers for TJ Dillashaw.
Women's Bantamweight
Big Gift: A Pulse
If not for the legacy crafted by Ronda, Holly and Miesha, we'd be saying the stuff we say about the 125 lb class for men in this division too. We don't need to re-litigate what ails the 135 lb class. Divisions one up and one down raided the middle class and took away reliable names like Jessica Eye, Holly Holm, Alexis Davis, Liz Carmouche and Valentina Shevchenko to name a few. Retirement and pregnancies took away the star power from the division, namely the likes of Ronda Rousey, Miesha Tate and Julianna Pena. What remains is a hollowed out husk of a division that has no signs of life left in it. Amanda Nunes vs Rocky Pennington is probably the worst title fight of 2018 and I suppose it spoke to the depth of this division that Pennington on a near two year layoff plus a broken leg was the right choice for the title fight. At the end of the day, 135 lbs just needs something. It needs some sort of a pulse and a reminder that it has its place in MMA. It needs someone to invest in it or some star to emerge from out of nowhere to step up and create some talent within it.
Stocking Stuffer: A TUF
Featherweight
Big Gift: Some divisional air freshener
Can great fights and great fighters get stale? 2017 began with Max Holloway and Jose Aldo on a collision course with Frankie Edgar on the outskirts looking in and a collection of proven quality fighters who had been beaten by some combination of the three as the filler. The "upside" was in guys like Yair Rodriguez, Renato Moicano and Brian Ortega. 2018 began with Max Holloway as the sole head of the division with Jose Aldo as the clear #2 fighter, Frankie Edgar on the outskirts looking in and a collection of proven quality fighters who had been beaten by some combination of the three as the filler. The "upside" guys were Renato Moicano, Brian Ortega and Zhabit Magomedsharipov. In 2019, we will enter the year with Max Holloway as the sole head of the division with Jose Aldo as the clear #2 fighter, Frankie Edgar on the outskirts looking in and a collection of proven quality fighters who had been beaten by some combination of the three as the filler. The likes of Cub Swanson, Jeremy Stephens, Ricardo Lamas, Darren Elkins and company continue to be the filler. The likes of Renato Moicano and Brian Ortega have graduated in value but I don't think either fighter at this moment can say they're above Jose Aldo (while Ortega can absolutely make a claim that he's the #3 guy). Most of these guys have all fought one another or fought someone who has fought Edgar, Aldo or Holloway. This division could use some freshening up and something new going on with it. Maybe that's Moicano taking the FINAL step up to replace Edgar or Aldo at the top of the charts or maybe Ortega is back in a title fight before 2019 ends. Maybe the likes of Alexander Volkanovski, Zhabit Magomedsharipov, Yair Rodriguez and can survive the gatekeeper's boss run that is the likes of Swanson, Edgar, Lamas and Elkins in some form or fashion. Hell maybe even guys like Michael Johnson and Chad Mendes can continue to be a vibrant little surprise, racking up some timely wins and preventing new challenges. This division is realistically the best division in MMA but if we end 2019 with the same old same old at the top then I'm going to have to call foul there.
Stocking Stuffer: Health and happiness for action fighters
Women's Featherweight
Big Gift: An investment
The UFC is building performance institutes all over the world and I think that's great. It's their money, spend it how ya wish on what you like. That said if the UFC wants this featherweight class to live beyond Cyborg skipping out, it may be time to put those PI's to their best uses. Even if people cry favoritism, use the UPI's to restock the shelves in WMMA. Let athletes in need of a home stop in there, train for free, board for free and then try to find them gyms you're comfortable with to continue their careers. There's no reason that women's hockey/basketball/softball/wrestling athletes aren't being tempted with continuing their athletic careers in the UFC. That requires an understanding of failure and the tacit knowledge that you may invest hundreds of thousands into people who may not make it. Invest in your product long term, realize you might sink a cost or two and reap the benefits over the long term. It CAN be done.
Stocking Stuffer: A drama free year out of Cyborg (or whoever your champ is)
Lightweight
Big Gift: Detangler
Any other division in the world with the likes of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Conor McGregor, Tony Ferguson, Dustin Poirier, Kevin Lee, Al Iaquinta, Paul Felder, James Vick, Justin Gaethje, Donald Cerrone, Anthony Pettis, David Teymur, Alexander Hernandez and countless others would be a pretty damn hot division and to its credit 155 lbs is pretty damn hot. Even if we can express disappointment in some of the ratings this division has drawn, the fights have been absolutely outstanding as a whole on the year. What this division really needs though is some detangler to help us figure out just what the hell we've got going on here. Is Khabib going to be out for a year? Is Conor? Will Ferguson fight ONLY for a title or will he be active again like in years past? Is Al Iaquinta really a top 5 LW? Can guys like Kevin Lee and James Vick bounce back from rough showings at the end of the year? We've got a loaded division but not a lot happening in large part due to the Khabib and Conor situation and also due to Ferguson and Poirier seemingly getting stuck in between fighting and not fighting for various reasons. This division deserves a bit better luck than that.
Stocking Stuffer: A 165 lbs division
Welterweight
Big Gift: The element of danger
I've sort of beaten this into the crowd to the point where it's lost effectiveness so I won't belabor the point much longer. 170 lbs needs somebody to finish a fight. It needs a title fight with actual buzz and not buzz about seeing who can race to the bottom first. This is the UFC's weirdest, wackiest division which is somewhat unfortunate given the history of 170 lbs as a whole.
Stocking Stuffer: A Renaissance run from an old horse
Middleweight
Big Gift: Continued youthful and exciting international imports
There's some life here! For once, middleweight has some life going on with it! After the 2014/2015 run where Weidman, Rockhold, Whittaker and a bunch of TUF guys stepped up and showed out, the division hit a lull until this year. We got some glory days runs out of the likes of Jacare and Chris Weidman, we had Yoel Romero fight two times a year like a mad man but we also had the likes of Israel Adesanya, Karl Roberson, Paulo Costa, Thiago Santos and Jared Cannonier mark their arrivals as forces to be reckoned with at 185 lbs. The Contenders Series gave us fighters like Kevin Holland, Ian Henisch and Edemen Shahbazyan. Fighters like Tom Breese and Darren Till realized that lopping off limbs to make 170 lbs was a bad idea. For the first time in the history of the UFC, we're going to get a middleweight title fight between two guys under the age of 30. Even if you account for the fact that Chris Weidman and Luke Rockhold are bound to leave the division soon, it doesn't actually feel like a death shot which is pretty amazing given 185's reliability on aging fighters to keep it afloat. What this division needs is really just more of the same. More fighters under 30 popping into the mix, less weathered proven mid tier gatekeepers being given opportunities over and over that they consistently come up short in. Keep building 185 lbs, man. We'll eventually have a serious division in short order.
Stocking Stuffer: One Jacare title fight
Light Heavyweight
Big Gift: Help
Help. SOMEBODY. Jesus christ, somebody help this god forsaken division. Anthony Smith and Thiago Santos are top 10 LHWs after a few fights! The only three really intriguing prospects are Johnny Walker, Dominick Reyes (who no longer feels like a prospect) and Aleksandr Rakic. This division needs help. It needs fresh new fighters, reinforcements from 185 lbs or just something. We're a win, a suspension and a bad sneeze from Gustafsson away from Shogun vs Jan Blachowicz as a title fight in 2019.
Stocking Stuffer: MULTIPLE Jon Jones fights
Heavyweight
Big Gift: The Same Old Same Old
Honestly I know there are folks who dislike the heavyweight division but let's be honest. This is a golden era for big doughy dudes doing big things. We've got old horses having renaissance years in Daniel Cormier. Alexei Olyenik and Junior Dos Santos. Derrick Lewis got to fight for a title! The European HW scene is popping with new guys springing up every other month seemingly. We got to see fighters like Arjan Bhullar and Tai Tuivasa get tested a little bit with some adversity. We might be finally getting some sort of ROI on guys like Justin Willis, Curtis Blaydes and Walt Harris. Francis Ngannou and Alistair Overeem both ended the year on the right side of the tracks. Despite our best reservations or concerns, Greg Hardy is coming and will step into the cage as literally the best athlete in HW division history. Even CAIN VELASQUEZ has apparently had the cobwebs blown off of him! The UFC heavyweight division is doing okay and everything will be alright. Just keep doing what you're doing, try to sign some more of these up and coming European heavies, be a bit more careful with the prospects you've got and let the division keep on keeping on. Long live Heavyweight MMA!
Stocking Stuffer: A semblance of an heir apparent or two

Klaine Advent Drabble - “Performance Anxiety” (PG13)
Blaine has been keeping secrets, spending late nights up, not coming to bed, and his husband is ready to get to the bottom of things. (1815 words)
Notes: I wrote this for the Klaine Advent Drabble challenge 2017 prompt 'performance'. But it's more relevant to me now than when I started writing it.
Read on AO3.
“Blaine?” A groggy Kurt yawns as he makes his way down the dark hallway to Blaine’s studio, the light beneath the door a beacon leading him along. He’s half asleep, but it’s been a miserable sleep since his husband never came to bed, too wrapped up in something that’s been occupying his mind recently.
Something that he has yet to discuss.
When Kurt reaches the door, he pauses before knocking to listen, trying to pick up a sound that would be a clue to his husband’s strange mood and obsessive late hours over the past week.
He’d hoped to hear music - a new composition, or the fine tuning of an older song. But he hears clicking instead.
He raps on the door lightly with his knuckles, his head throbbing with the remains of a sleep hangover.
“Blaine? Honey? Can I come in?”
The rustling of papers greets him before his husband’s voice.
That could be promising.
“Uh … yeah. Come on in.”
“What are you doing up so late?” Kurt asks, opening the door in stages so the light doesn’t spear his eyes. With it open a crack, he gets his first peek at Blaine, sitting on his futon with his computer in his lap, manuscript pages stacked haphazardly beside him, their corners poking this way and that as if they were tossed there in a hurry.
“I’m just … I’m writing,” he says, absentmindedly tidying the papers with one hand and tilting his computer screen down with the other. It doesn’t seem suspicious at first because Kurt’s brain is bleeding with exhaustion, but he happens to catch the reflection of Blaine’s computer screen in the TV behind him, and his eyes fly open wide.
“No, you’re not! You’re playing Farmville!”
“No!” Blaine closes his laptop further to shield the screen from view, but he gives up quickly. He knows he’s been caught. He bows his head in shame. “Yes. Yes, I am. I’m sorry.”
“How long, Blaine?” Kurt asks, arms crossed over his chest. “How long have you been playing?”
“Since … um … since I came home.”
“Since you came … that was nine hours ago!”
“I know, I know …”
“Blaine …” Kurt covers his face with his hands, stopping himself from saying another word before he has a chance to catch his breath. This isn’t a new behavior for Blaine. It’s happened before. Blaine had become addicted to Farmville when Candy Crush got monotonous, but he only played them when anxiety got the better of him. It was his escape – an escape that occupied large pockets of Blaine’s time, and that made it a sore spot between him and Kurt.
Because Kurt wanted to be Blaine’s escape when his anxiety got bad. He wanted to be the thing Blaine ran to, that he poured his heart and his sadness and his stress into. But when they tried that, it never worked.
It stings less than Blaine’s short lived porn addiction, but it still stings.
It’s been six years, though, and during that time, Blaine even admitted he hated it. He swore he’d never go back, that he’d find a different, healthier outlet.
What could be bothering Blaine so badly that he’d break that promise to himself?
“I’m sorry,” Blaine repeats quietly, moving his computer off his lap and onto the cushion beside him. “I didn’t mean …”
“No, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to overreact. I’m just … overtired. It’s hard to sleep without you.” Kurt joins his husband on the futon, rests his head on Blaine’s shoulder. “I know this isn’t about me. It’s how you cope with stress. But remember, you’re the one who said that Farmville is the devil.”
“Facebook’s the devil,” Blaine corrects. “Farmville’s only a minion.” Kurt chuckles, but Blaine can’t. “It’s so damned satisfying. And it’s much easier to organize things here than up here,” he says, tapping his temple with his finger. “You know?”
Kurt nods, taking his husband’s hand in his while he listens to him explain.
“And every time I complete a quest or unlock something new, it feels like I’m accomplishing something. That I’m getting closer to a goal. That I’m winning. Does that make any sense?”
“It does,” Kurt admits. “But I’ve seen you on your computer every night this week. If you’ve been playing Farmville all those times …” which Blaine’s sudden fidgeting with the knee of his slacks tells Kurt he has “… it’s taking your attention away from other things. More important things. Work related things. Things you want to accomplish in real life.”
“Actually, it’s not taking me away from anything. It’s helping me avoid something. Something I haven’t told you about yet, and I’m … I’m really sorry about that, too.” Blaine slips his hand underneath the hastily stacked pile of papers and pulls out his phone. He unlocks the screen and hands it over to Kurt. Kurt stares at it, full of messages outlining the secret Blaine had been keeping for close to a week now. Kurt scrolls through them, skimming them more than reading them, which causes him to need to scroll back when he misses a few key points. But by his third read thru, he’s sure he understands, and he squeezes Blaine’s hand in excitement.
“The record label blue lighted your album release!?” Kurt looks at Blaine for confirmation. He gives it with a shrug and a bashful half-smile. “That’s wonderful!”
“No,” Blaine says, smile gone. “No, it’s not wonderful.”
“Why is it not wonderful?”
“Because they want to send me on the road to promote it!”
“As we anticipated,” Kurt says. “I already warned Isabelle that I’ll need some time off.”
“No, you don’t understand. They don’t want me to just go on a few radio shows. They want me to go back to my roots. To Starbucks and The Lima Bean! They want me to perform it live!”
“What’s wrong with that? It’ll be good practice, help you get back in the swing of things.”
“But I haven’t performed live in a small venue in ages!”
“That’s the best part! It’ll be gritty! And raw!” Kurt says, imagining his husband squeezing into the clothes he wore back in the day – tight jeans, artfully faded, ripped at the knees and under the butt; his black leather jacket; his thin, retro tank tops that showed off his bulging biceps. Why are they sitting on this futon arguing about this? Why aren’t they grabbing his guitar and leaving now!?
“What if I mess up? What if I forget the lyrics?”
“So, what if you do?”
“People will throw coffee at me!”
“Are you kidding? For the price Starbucks charges?”
“Kurt!”
“Blaine! Your fans love you! When they come to see you perform, they know what they’re getting. They’re getting you, and that’s what they want. And if you forget the lyrics, you can turn it into a thing. You can pull the old man card. Make it tongue-in-cheek. People will think it’s cute.”
“Or obnoxious.”
“That, too. But who cares!? Your fans have been waiting for you to make your comeback for too long! You’ve been shelving projects left and right for almost a decade that you should have been jumping into with both feet! You post more ads on your Instagram feed than album updates.”
Blaine flinches. “Now, that’s a little harsh …”
“Blaine, you can’t shy away from the spotlight because you don’t think you’re going to shine brightly enough! That’s juvenile thinking! That’s Blaine after high school, scared of breaking out into the world, not Blaine here and now, award winning songwriter and epic rock star, ready to burst back into the public eye! Because that’s who you are. You’re not a has been, not a quitter, and you’re definitely not a farmer!”
“I mean, have you actually seen my farm …?”
“Blaine!”
Blaine sighs, looking from the phone in Kurt’s hands to the computer by his side, and the stack of papers that represents over a dozen works in progress. Those are the real tragedy in this equation, the real addiction he needs to overcome. Every time the record label or his agent or his manager tries to convince him that his record - the one he’s been working on for longer than he’s been famous - is good enough to stand alone, he’d disagree, then return to this pile of slush and hammer away at these tired old rhythms and melodies, determined that what he had completed was nowhere near good enough. It needed something more, something he could only find here.
They’re his safety net.
They’re holding him back.
“I guess you’re right.”
“You guess I’m right?” Kurt huffs. “No, no, no. You know I’m right. So tomorrow morning, you’re going to text your record label and tell them you’re taking their offer.”
“Well, why don’t I do it now?” Blaine reaches for his phone, but Kurt keeps it out of his reach.
“Because then they’ll call you back, all excited, wanting to schedule meetings and iron out deals … and I have plans for you.”
“What plans?” Blaine watches his husband stand, tugging his hand to get him to follow.
“We’re going to go to bed and play an adult game.” We’re going to see if you still fit in those torn-up jeans … maybe tear them up a little more.
“Okay,” Blaine says. “Sounds good. Just … give me a second to clean up?”
Kurt raises an eyebrow. He doesn’t like that answer. He doesn’t like any response to his offer that doesn’t include Blaine bolting off his futon and racing to their room, shedding clothing down the hall as he goes. “Alright. But don’t take too long.”
“I won’t. I promise.”
Kurt heads for the door with Blaine’s phone in his hands to ensure his husband can’t call anyone. He hears the shuffling of papers as he leaves, but once he’s out in the hallway with the door mostly shut behind him, that stops. He hangs around, peeking in through the crack he left to watch what his husband is doing. There Blaine sits, staring at the door as if he can see Kurt’s eyeball peeking in. But when he thinks the coast is clear, he grabs his laptop and puts it back on his lap. The second he straightens the screen, Kurt storms back in, a move that nearly makes a startled Blaine toss his laptop across the room. “Blaine! What the---what are you doing?”
“Kurt! I just have to do this one thing …”
“Oh hell no!” Kurt snatches Blaine’s laptop and snaps the screen shut, which elicits a high-pitched yelp of distress from his husband.
“But, Kurt! My carrots! If I don’t harvest them, they’ll wither and die!”
“Something more important is going to wither and die if you don’t get your butt in our bedroom right now!”

Binge Reading Journal - November 13, 2018 - the tenth day of reading Marvel’s Dark Reign (Part 3)
Secret Invasion- Requiem
Now they reprint Court-Martial by Jim Shooter (boy genius writer), Bob Hall (an underrated penciler), Dan Green on inks and Janice Chiang on Letters. This story was first featured in Avengers #213 in 1981 featuring the smack heard ‘round the world.
Hank Pym, now working under the name of Yellowjacket, is standing in front of Iron Man, Thor and Captain America. All in full uniform in their private mansion where no one can see, or get in or out. BUT this is a serious matter. Full uniform must be worn! Iron Man says that Cap has leveled some serious charges against Yellowjacket. Thor lets him know that if the accusations are true he will face formal court-martial! Thor wants the record to show that he and Iron Man are presiding as judges.....wait wait wait. These are just a bunch of dudes wearing really tight clothes in a swanky clubhouse. There’s no military sanction. Tony Stark is footing the bill (through the Maria Stark Foundation) so they can run around and smash things!
According to the Marvel Database, they’re a non-profit organization like the American Red Cross or Habitat for Humanity, recognized by the National Security Council of the US and the UN as a peacekeeping organization, ain’t nobody being court-martialed....pppsshhhh. Just be all like, “Hank you’re a jerk! Here are your things and go away.”
Well, these boys are going to go through this farce anyway. Cap states that the day before, during a mission where he was fighting a mysterious woman attacking Washington D.C. He managed to convince her to stop when Yellowjacket shot her in the back, which caused her to continue fighting. Iron Man asks for an explanation to which he has none. His own personal thoughts, legible in a bubble to the reader shows him thinking that he was a jerk and acted over eagerly to be the star on his first mission since rejoining the team.
Thor (who’s not really pretending at any of this because he actually is a Norse god) says they will convene for three days until the formal court-martial (hahahah) and suspends Hank until then so hand over your Avengers ID Card, Hank!
Hank pleads a little at this but Iron Man reminds him the rules, which he helped write, are firm on this.
I don’t think The Salvation Army has ever court-martialed anyone and they call themselves an army!
Janet is in the hallway outside the court-martial ichamber. Tigra asks why so down? Tigra, by the way is hanging from one of the rafters in the ceiling because it helps her relax. She wonders why Janet is so hung up on that strange guy anyway. Can we remind 2008 Future Tigra, who’s having Skrull-Hank babies, she thought Hank was strange in 1981?
Hank leaves the room and practically shoves Janet aside, telling her to leave him alone when she asks how he is. He immediately regrets it an apologizes before she walks away. She comes in for an embrace and say sweet consoling things to each other. TIgra doesn’t get it.
As the other founding members go their separate ways, each one remembers their own mistakes from the past.
Cap recalls when, during a heated battle against Nazi soldiers, he reacted to a noise behind him and instinctively threw his shield. It was a little girl, an orphan, collecting the brass shells for money. He barely missed hitting her when she bent down to pick up a shell. Cap realizes that he nearly made the same mistake as Hank.
Iron Man is going over Hank’s files and pictures, As a founding member his history is tied in closely with the Avengers’ history. However, Hank never really seemed to settle in, taking on guises such as Giant-Man and Goliath. Tony feels that Hank always felt outclassed by himself and Iron Man, so he’d leave the team to try to come up with some scientific breakthrough to prove himself. One of those wound up being Ultron, the Avengers’ greatest enemy. Then he had an accident in the lab which triggered a mental breakdown. That’s when he started calling himself Yellowjacket. However, the schizophrenia was cured (can’t be cured.)
Schizophrenia, and other mental disorders are a pulp fiction trope, used to explain away erratic behavior. It is usually used by writers with very little understanding of the actual condition. Actually, a rigorous new definition of schizophrenia was fashioned for the ''Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition,'' or ''DSM-III,'' which was published by the American Psychiatric Association in 1980.
Nevertheless, Hank and Janet got married. As Iron Man continues reminiscing, he recalls how Ultron returned and forced him to create Jocasta from Janet’s brain waves. Iron Man wonders if Hank will ever stop looking for redemption. Is it fair to turn away from a friend who needs help, should he be punished for a mistake anyone of them could have made?
Janet and Hank head home, Janet stopping to sign autographs for fans waiting outside the mansion, none recognizing Yellowjacket. They head to their residence in Cresskill, New Jersey. (Did he always live there? Should I redo my ant speed calculations from that earlier issue?) Ah wait, their butler and other staff greet Janet like she’s the Queen of England and Hank is something she stepped in. She’s the rich one, inherited her father’s wealth which he made from science, with all his alien teleportation stuff. Not a lot of scientists manage to get rich. Usually the career path of a scientist is to become tenured at a university, write a lot of books and speaking engagements, they manage to make a decent living. Usually they work for companies and universities collecting meager salaries for the opportunity to science.
If a scientist manages to discover something, and patent it and comes up with a practical use for it, then there is an opportunity to become rich from it. A couple of rich, like Craig Ventner. Dr. Ventner, much like Hank Pym, is a biotechnologist, biochemist and geneticist. He was involved in mapping the human genome. Then he founded, Celera Genomics, institute for Genomic Research and the J. Craig Ventner Institute and Human Longevity, Inc.
At Celera, Ventner and his colleagues completed sequencing the human genome (Ventner’s genome specifically) three years ahead of schedule, beating the government funded Human Genome Project (your taxes at work.) Ventner’s discoveries, patents and stock ownership in the companies he’s founded made him very rich. Forbes estimates that his net worth (as of 2017) based on his stakes on two of his startups is about $300 million.
It seems like taking some real world examples, there’s some untapped story ideas to mine; what did Janet Van Dyne’s father discover and patent that made him rich and how has it impacted the world; how can Pym cash in on his own discoveries (not to mention Reed Richards, Hank McCoy, etc.).
Janet tries to get Hank into the bedroom, but he takes the laboratory over the seductive advances of his wife.
Hank admits he hates going to the lab because it reminds him of his failures, except there is one success he’s had in the lab: Robotics (wait, no that never turns out well.
Cut to three days later, Tigra is asleep in her private quarters, Bob Hall draws her in the nude but all the naughty bits are tastefully covered. She wakes up to the sound of Jarvis approaching her door. Jim Shooter makes it a point to say she slipped on a satiny negligee. It’s like the only reason Tigra was created was to get some weird furry fantasy going for the readers. A startled Jarvis, who’s never owned a cat apparently or else he wouldn’t be surprised by her behavior, is presenting Tigra with her first weekly stipend check.
She is surprised to learn that the Avengers get paid a salary. He clarifies that it is a modest stipend to cover living expenses, which most Avengers traditionally refuse, he adds in a snidely way. Hmmmm. Let’s see....Black Panther is the king of his own country so mega-rich; Thor, Prince of Asgard, so rich he doesn’t even need money; Captain America, probably collecting a lot of military back pay. See, Jarvis, most Avengers refuse the stipend because they’re already rich; not because they are doing it out of the goodness of their hearts.
He continues to economically shame her by pointing out that those that do accept the stipend are the ones that live at the mansion and have no outside means of support. Tigra finally gets a chance to read it and notices it is for one thousand dollars. Which in 1983, like $2,534.53 today or $131, 795.56 a year. That is a pretty good haul on top of room and board for Tigra.
Jarvis reminds her that the court-martial is at four o’clock that day. Meanwhile, Tony Stark is making an excuse to leave a board meeting at Stark International Headquarters, because writers think the best way to show a busy CEO is at a board meeting (not true, board meetings occur maybe just once a year unless there is an emergency, trope alert)
Thor finishes up some surgery but leaves the cleaning up for his colleagues, who grouse at Blake leaving (oh, sorry at this time, Thor is still using the Don Blake alter ego) for them to clean up despite being the best surgeon ever.
Captain America, already in the Avengers library and in full uniform, is wondering if he will have the courage to look Hank in the eye even though it is the most difficult thing he’s ever done. More difficult than watching Bucky die on that rocket? More difficult than giving up your Captain America identity to become Nomad? Well, we all chose our own cross to bear.
Speaking of crosses to bear, a few hours earlier, Janet hasn’t seen Hank since they came home three days earlier. She decides to go check on him in the lab. Finding the door locked, she shrinks down and squeezes in to the door crack to discover Hank putting in the final touches of programming of the robot, which will allow it to target each Avenger by their brain waves. Which it does as o soon as it senses Jan in the room. Hank is infuriated, Accusing Jan of spying on him. Hank explains he has built a robot called Salvation 1 and she’s going to help him test it out. It grabs Jan but her sting is useless against it. He explains it is built out of Adamantium. Ok, so according to the Marvel Database:
Creating even a small amount of Adamantium is astronomically expensive, and only a few people know the complete formula. Adamantium is created by mixing certain chemical resins together. The exact composition of these resins is a closely guarded secret of the United States government. When these resins are mixed and kept at a temperature of 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit, the resulting liquid can be cast or worked into a particular shape. After an eight minute 'flux period', the mixture sets and becomes solid regardless of temperature. Its molecular structure is extremely stable, and its shape can only be altered by precise molecular rearrangement.
So I don’t know how Hank had enough Adamantium lying around to build a 15 foot tall battle robot he just conceived three days prior. He designed Sal with a secret weak spot that will shut down the robot with one well-placed stinger shot, thus making him a hero when Sal attacks the Avengers. That’s the plan at least. But Janet won’t let him go through with it.
There it is.
On Jim Shooter’s website, he posted on March 29, 2011:
In that story (issue 213, I think), there is a scene in which Hank is supposed to have accidentally struck Jan while throwing his hands up in despair and frustration—making a sort of “get away from me” gesture while not looking at her. Bob Hall, who had been taught by John Buscema to always go for the most extreme action, turned that into a right cross! There was no time to have it redrawn, which, to this day has caused the tragic story of Hank Pym to be known as the “wife-beater” story.
So, henceforth Hank Pym is known as a wife beater.
Let’s cut to the court-martial proceedings. Captain America states his case: Yellowjacket shot a hostile in the back. Hank has never been know to act cowardly so the act was a case of misjudgment. It is tempting to write off as a mistake since any one of them can make the same error.
However, as an Avenger they cannot. An error by any one of them can result in the loss of lives. They have a tremendous responsibility and thus must judge themselves harshly.
I bet one can look back at previous issues of the Avengers, or Iron Man or Cap, or Thor and find situations and scenarios where they’ve all made costly mistakes like Hank Pym. Alas, this can’t turn into a retrospective of the Avengers.
Iron Man asks Hank how he pleads or if he wishes to defend himself. Hank pleads not guilty. His argument is that although his mistake may have seemed treacherous but he wondered if Cap ever considered treachery from the enemy. His actions may have actually saved lives! Perhaps because the enemy was a beautiful woman, perhaps Cap liked her! Like Liked her! That’s why Cap is upset, because Hank hurt her!
Everyone is feeling second-hand embarrassment at this point. Iron Man asks him to stop. Hank asks Janet to back up her story. She lowers her sunglasses and reveals a shiner. Thor is shocked, wondering if Hank actually hit her. Hank goes for the remote control to summon Salvation 1. Janet pleads to him to not do it.
Sal bursts through the wall (kind of hilariously, no disrespect to Bob Hall, but considering the statement Shooter made on his blog post, about Hall being trained by Buscema to always go for the drama, it kind of comes off as comedic. Iron Man being flipped upside down, Tigra kind of in a Bugs Bunny pose, Yellowjacket exclaiming “Ah!” In faux surprise.
When Thor strikes it with his Mjolnir without any effect, Janet let’s them know it’s made out of (very expensive and rare) Adamantium and Hank built it and designed it to destroy them. Hank realizes Sal is way too brutal and may actually defeat everyone. He goes for the super secret shut off switch but Sal throws him against the wall. Sal grabs Hank in his giant pincer claws, crushing him when Janet runs up and shoots the switch with her stinger, deactivating Salvation 1.
Hank, shamefully leaves.

Ryan Oubre and Clara Fergus are the wild card couple on this season of Married At First Sight. They are simply one of those pairings where fans will have to wait until decision day to see if their relationship will last. So far, they have had ups and downs, but they do have the potential to work if they are willing to put the effort into their relationship. Ryan’s serious personality could be in part due to his career as a senior transition specialist representative for Paycom. He has been mindful about his money, and the 29-year-old has accumulated a humble net worth.
The Atlanta edition of MAFS has been a crazy ride thus far, all because of Chris Williams. Unfortunately, his bad behavior has also affected other couples on the series. Chris got into it with Clara Fergus, Ryan’s wife, who tried to give her opinion about his situation with Paige. What resulted was a big blow-up, though Ryan managed to stay mostly out of the drama. After the argument, it was safe to say no one was a fan of Chris. Ryan, however, pulled Clara aside and told her to be careful of what she says, as she tends to talk too much. Clara agreed but wondered if her new husband was trying to control her. Though she admitted she should be more mindful of her words, the interaction created lingering doubts about her husband.

Clara being more outspoken than Ryan, and him being on the reserved side, echoes in their career choices. Clara switched from a politics degree to her flight attendant career, which shows her willingness for change. With Ryan, however, it is evident that he prefers logic and stability over spontaneity. According to Stars Offline, Ryan attended Kennesaw State University and studied communication and film. He now works as a senior transition specialist representative (TSR) for Paycom. His salary is estimated to be $51,485 a year. This information combined with his personal, unidentified assets leads to a reported net worth of $250,000.

Ryan managed to work his way up the ladder in his career. He originally worked as an advanced repair agent for Geek Squad for five years. After that, he joined Paycom as a TSR. In 2017, he was given a promotion and became the TSR manager for Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Cleveland, and New Jersey. In May 2018, he started working as a TSR in Atlanta, the position he currently holds. Beyond his job, which he seems very dedicated to, Ryan enjoys staying active and fit.
Ryan and Clara are an interesting couple. So far, Clara has admitted their lack of sexual intimacy is confusing for her. She even went as far as to say that she has not seen Ryan with his shirt off. However, they still have six weeks until decision day, and fans are sure that, once Ryan has gotten comfortable with Clara, they will consummate the marriage. The experts seem to hope that Clara’s wide-eyed hopeless romantic personality will rub off on Ryan, who has never been in love before. But even if things don't work out with Clara, it sounds like Ryan will have a steady job to return to after Married At First Sight.
