fics in which derek is endearing, maybe earnest, and sometimes is not aware of how fail-y he is. The ★★★ denote extra goobiness.

Derek Hale’s Seduction Techniques (PG-13, 6613) ★★★★★★
It doesn’t sit well with Stiles, the thing at the police station and with Erica. It niggles at him from the back of his mind, screaming PAY ATTENTION TO ME. Because Derek’s apparently familiar enough with flirting to do it successfully, like it’s something that comes naturally to him, but what kind of broody misanthropic guy flirts?-
I Won’t Sit Outside Your House (R, 2068)
Derek won’t define what they are, despite how the wolf wants to, because the man knows better. He knows Stiles will find someone else, will be better off with someone who can just be a man, not someone pretending he’s one. He knows this. He knows. He knows.-
Jocks vs. Nerds (PG-13, ???) ★★★
BASICALLY DEREK IS A NERD AND STILES BREAKS HEARTS THIS IS AMAZING READ EVERYTHING IN THIS TAG JUST DO IT OMG???-
Sideways and Slantways and Longways and Backways (PG-13, 7801) ★★★★★★
“I called you a slave-driver!” Stiles cried hysterically. “I called you an ogre! I stole all the blue paperclips!” Derek raised an eyebrow at him. “That’s company property!” he shouted, waving his arms madly in distress. Derek ran a hand over his face. “It’s not theft if the vice president of the company gives you permission.” (Otherwise known as the Elevator AU)-
Diamonds are Forever (But Flowers are Cheaper) (PG-13, 9453) ★★★
His name was Stiles Stilinski. He was older than 21, but younger than 25. His dad was the sheriff and he was a student at Beacon Hills Community College. He came into the shop every couple days; always after three, but never past five. He always said hello to Laura, always bought one bouquet, and always spent five minutes trying to make Derek smile with as many puns as he could come up with by the time Derek handed him his receipt. Derek may or may not be in love with him.-
Can’t be Hateful, Gotta be Grateful (PG-13, 6260) ★★★
“Be cool, Dad, we’ve decided to con Grandma.” (Or, the one where the Stilinski men drag Derek to Thanksgiving dinner at Grandma’s and she gets therightwrong idea.)-
ALWAYS AND FOREVER ♥
