I might have to bombard deirdre_c's inbox with this thing because it's totes her fault I'm doing this. :D Got my Avengers Xmas exchange assignment and I'm... a little stumped. I'm not sure how I got matched with this requestor considering my do-not-write list... but I will get it done... I think. *chews fists*

-> What I'm writing:

Posting: the Teen Wolf Derek/Stiles fake-relationship story tonight. \o/

In progress: Teen Wolf AU: The human-lycan war was long and bloody, with no real victor. Instead, the land was split into ever-shifting domains, the werewolves controlling what was called the Crescent Territory and the humans holding onto the Silver Territory.

He gets Lydia's surprise. Markus was a likeminded Alpha to him, thinking of most of his humans as pack rather than property. He also took on an attendant only because his mate Tanya had badgered him about the impropriety of not having one, always worried about appearances and their pack standing and Markus had finally caved after years and had bought a goofy-looking kid from the middle of nowhere who had no other prospects.

Stilinski had been with Markus since he was fourteen. Markus had often talked about Stilinski in the darkest hours and at the bottom of a bottle and the love, even then, was apparent.

Markus had adored Stilinski, so much so that according to rumor, Tanya had regretted ever making Markus take him on in the first place.

Now Markus, having lost most of his territory in a challenge, was required to offload everything he owned to pay out a settlement to the Alpha that had bested him to save his pack from military service. He would not be destitute by any stretch of the imagination, but he would also take a long time to start again.

"I've heard alot about this kid," Derek says mildly. "He won't survive going into Service, whether it's the Cage or the Skin."

"That's..." Lydia makes a helpless gesture with her hands. "I know what you're trying to do and I respect it, but I have a duty to protect this household and all in it and I've gotta tell you that I think this is just not what we need right now."

"Harris has managed to talk them down in price and also switch his status to house servant to avoid the fifteen percent bump. It helps that he's untrained so Tanya knows she would've had trouble passing him off as an attendant anyway. She's snatched an opportunity to get rid of him and her desperation is to our benefit."

"Is she offloading her own attendant?" Lydia asks, curious and Derek rolls his eyes.

"Nope. She's given him the bite."

Lydia looks a little shocked by that. It's not unheard of for humans to earn a place in a pack, but if her attendant was offered the chance, it's strange that Stilinski wasn't, especially when Markus had cared about him so much. Derek gives Lydia an I don't know either look.

"So, okay. What are we going to do with him? If you couldn't tell from the fact that Allison spends most days on her cute little butt, we're currently overstaffed."

Sookie!Stiles:

When Stiles is six years old, he asks his dad what bazoombas are and why he thinks Mrs. Fenkle has fantastic ones. He asks only because he thinks they might be a type of cookie, and maybe his father has been holding out because the only cookies Mrs Fenkle gives him are dry as dust and only taken under protest or what Stiles' mother calls being polite.

Stiles' dad chokes a little on his coffee and then wipes his streaming eyes and asks just where Stiles heard that.

Stiles, being all of six and not quite understanding such things, innocently tells his dad from your head.

I love stories with powers!Stiles. S2 gave us a tiny peek of a possible new aspect of Stiles and then it just dwindled away to nothing. It's like they left everything else on the editing floor. I hope we get to see something of it next season. Supposedly they are giving Stiles a separate storyline. I hope it has something to do with that.
