Summary
In which Stiles goes along with one of Derek’s plans and ends up in an alternate universe as a result. He should’ve known better. He did know better, actually, and that means he has no one to blame but himself.
“Laura wants to lure the kid in with food and kindness and make a pet of him, like a feral cat. Derek wants to have him arrested for stalking. They’re at an impasse. (And the rest of the family is staying emphatically out of it in a way that suggests bets have been placed.)”

An hour into the futile studying, Laura calls. Derek’s amazed she lasted that long, and also amazed to find he wants a break badly enough to actually want to talk to her. “…Hi.”
“Hi there, Derek. And…where are you, exactly? Because you’re not home. Everyone is sort of wondering why it is that you’re not home, actually.”
“Ah.” He’s not sure where to go from there, but it doesn’t matter, because Stiles takes that moment to put his foot in it.
“Is that Laura?” he asks, and then, without waiting for an answer, “Gimme the phone, I want to ask her something.” When Derek just stares at him, he beckons imperiously. Derek hands over the phone. What the hell.
“Laura! I have all the questions about pixies, but Derek’s specialty is definitely not research wizardry. I don’t mean to hurt your family pride or anything—he has other strengths!—but he hasn’t told me how to exterminate pixies yet, which is what I need at the moment, so I’m asking you. Thoughts?”
Laura laughs. “Derek’s at your house right now? Oh my God. Did you catch him sneaking around your yard and invite him in or something?”
“Hm? No, he climbed in my window. Why?”
“He what?”
“I know, right? I’ve given up on training him out of it.”
“You mean he’s climbed in your window before?!”
“No, no! No, this is the first time. I just meant—social skills. Generally. I’ve given up on them.”

Summary
While still suffering from the after effects of the Nogitsune, Stiles and the pack stumble upon and save a trapped fairy. The boy's parents, not wanting to be in the pack’s debt, offer each member of the pack who assisted in the rescue, the opportunity to bring a loved one back from the dead.
Having been blissfully reunited with several of their once-lost friends and family members, everyone must work together to figure out how to function as a new pack, and how to defeat a new incoming threat.
[I did not include the Fae & Fairies tag because after the first three chapters or so, they do not really play a large part in the fic, so I didn't want to mislead anyone!]

Reread
The doorbell rang, and Isaac bounded to the door, letting Scott and Stiles in. Scott seemed wary, but he was here, and some of the tension in Derek's body released. Stiles was holding a covered plate, which he brandished at Derek. "Cupcakes," he announced, and set it on an end table. He pulled the cover off the plate, brushing the edge of one of the frosted white cupcakes with his forearm. "Oops," he said, and licked a line up his wrist, catching the frosting up on his tongue.
There was dead silence from the alpha pack, as they all stared helplessly at Stiles. "Guys," Derek called sharply. "Didn't we say there would be music?" He tugged on Brandon's arm when it looked like the guy was going to advance on Stiles, and the touch seemed to shake him out of it.
"I give you so much more credit now," he said to Derek fervently.
"Thank you," Derek said, and changed the subject.
It took them nearly two weeks to locate the baby's father. In that time, Derek had to kick the alpha pack out of his apartment nearly six times. The first was a result of Stiles singing lullabies, soft and sweet as he crouched over the makeshift crib they had constructed. The last time, Derek had kicked himself out of the apartment as well. They had been returning from a "training exercise" which was really just tag in the woods, when they opened the door to find Stiles standing at the sink, rubbing the baby down with a washcloth. The kid waved his hands and feet wildly, and Stiles caught one of his toes in his mouth, pretending to bite down and the baby shrieked with glee. Stiles’s smile was wide and fond, even when the baby brought his fist down, splashing water all over the counter, floor, and Stiles himself. Stiles groaned, and reached with one hand to yank his shirt up and off.
"Nope," Derek said, turning right around. "Nope, nope, nope, nope." He shoved at Brandon's shoulders, forcing him back towards the door.
"Please," Brandon said. "Please let me get in there. I just need to get right up in there, just a little. Just," and Derek kept shoving them all until they were stumbling, dazedly, back outside.
"He's doing it on purpose," Jake said, and everyone agreed in discontented little murmurs.
Derek was definitely going to have to talk to Stiles. After they returned the baby to its pack. He was doing it, no matter how painful it might be.

Derek rolled his eyes as he palmed the phone out of his pocket. He glanced at his messages, frowning.
Unknown: we have your husband
Unknown: you have 1 hour to meet us or he’s going to start losing body parts
Unknown: 30 minutes Hale
Unknown: guess you don’t like the pretty boy much after all
>: You kidnapped Stiles? Stiles Stilinski-Hale?
Unknown:
>: Good luck with that.
Unknown: What?
>: You grabbed him in China town, right?
Unknown: …
>: Yeah, he took a lot of cold medicine last night… pretty sure that’s worn off by now.
>: Also, Stiles really hates getting kidnapped. Good luck.
Derek waited 10 minutes before his cell rang.
“Hey babe, are you okay?”
“Fuggin unters,” Stiles sniffled, voice thick and stuffy. He hated getting sick.
Derek tried not to laugh at the adorably furious muffled sound. “Did you see Quang, or did they grab you beforehand?”
“’for. ‘m gonna ow.”
“Okay love, see you at home?”
“Ung.”
“If you and the су́чка are done, I have better things to do today,” Alpha Konstantin growled, eyes flashing.
Derek narrowed his eyes at the other man, a retort on his lips when Stiles’ voice came through loudly.
“’isten up, муда́к. I’ll hex your mangy ass t’rough dis ‘one!” of course, his growl was interrupted by a coughing fit that made his Pack wince in sympathy. “Der, ‘owl ‘ease.”
Peter hid a smirk as Derek obligingly growled at the other Alpha, then ended his call.

Summary
There’s a new dating app in town, but this one is just for superheroes. You don’t use your name or callsign and there’s no photos, only a short bio. The idea is to talk about personal lives AND hero-ing without specifics, keeping both their secret identity secret and their hero persona in place.
Dick signs Bruce up. Clark signs up willingly. They accidentally match up and even for the World's Greatest Detective, it takes a while to figure it out. In part because he isn't trying to figure it out, that's the whole point! But also because Boy Scout Superman is definitely straight and definitely not a dude who hangs out at a farm in his free time.
And Superman is confident that Batman probably lives in some random cave system like the gremlin he is, and doubts he even HAS a secret identity because he is so consumed by his Batman persona. Even if he did, he definitely wouldn't join a dating app. That would require wanting to interact with other people and also the capability to smile.- Language:
