Hey, is it OK to smile? Hey, is it OK to cry? Hey, is it OK to get angry? And is it OK to fall in love with you? Hey, is it OK to kiss you? Hey, is it OK to hold you in my arms? And is it OK to make you my own…?
– Deco27, Love Distance Long Affair
Finished! I really liked how it turned out. : ] Inspired by: deco*27’s Love Distance Long Affair and A California Werewolf in New York by dancinbutterfly
Stressed out trying to fix a few bugs on a layout so decided to take a break to doodle something out and for some reason I went ‘Hey! I haven’t drawn Sterek in so long! Let’s try again!’
20 minutes later here’s the result ahah.
I liked how Stiles turned out (used a ref where Dylan had a bit messy hair), trying to cast a summon. I was imagining an older mage version from an AU that I had a long long time ago..
And Derek is a wolf.
Because I can’t handle drawing his serious faceeyebrowseverything right now.
But all in all, not a bad dabble into drawing sorta-Sterek again ahahaha.
i only miss you every now and then like the soft breeze blowin’ up from the caribbean each november i break down and cry but i can’t remember if we said goodbye
OHhh I love this ok, because mistaken identity is one of my favorite things.
1 Stiles is a little overwhelmed, ok. He didn’t mean to become the Next Big Thing. All he wanted was to make enough money with his shitty YouTube channel to keep the lights on and his dad in PT.
But then, fame happened and he has no fucking clue what to do with it, with all the people who want his attention and the mountain of scripts growing in his dad’s garage.
He doesn’t even have time to read books anymore, and that right there is the true travesty of his upturn in fame, if he’s honest.
2 Still. He’s got the lights on, and his dad has the best fucking care, and he gets to go really cool places. It’s when he’s in said really cool place, filming a movie that is either going to be Oscar bait or THE summer blockbuster (Stiles really didn’t pay attention) that he finds a library.
3 And in the library he finds the prettiest, grumpiest librarian he’s ever seen. Maybe just the prettiest, grumpiest PERSON he’s ever seen and he’s filming with Gal Gadot. Stiles quickly decides that the library is his new favorite place.
The books are nice too.
4 It takes him four trips to realize Derek (pretty grumpy book boy is named Derek, glares when Stiles brings him coffee and reads books to little kids in a soft, excited tone that makes Stiles want to melt, it’s adorable) has no freaking clue who he is.
It’s the first time since his second movie that Stiles wasn’t immediately recognized, and he knows he’ll have to tell Derek eventually, but he doesn’t want to–he wants to be a normal dude with a book, arguing with a pretty boy about the Lord of the Rings movie adaptations and being utterly charmed by the way Derek flushes when he slides new books across the counter to him, mumbling, “I saved it for you.”
5 They start texting when Stiles has to spend a week at a remote location doing night shoots, and the light flirting they’ve been doing takes a turn for the sexy. Stiles spends his time elated that this beautiful, sweet guy–he volunteers to bottle feed kittens and his landlord made him stop fostering pets because he adopted four–wants to spend time with him and terrified that Derek is going to realize who he is before Stiles tells him.
6 As soon as he gets back to town, even though he’s exhausted and still covered in fake blood and he’s due on set in three hours–he begs Derek to meet him, stumbles into the all night cafe wide eyed and almost hyperventilating and announces, “I’m a movie star, I don’t even know how it happend, and I should have told you but you didn’t know who I was I wanted you to like me I’m so sorry for lying.”
7 Derek gives him a smile Stiles really likes, fond and exasperated and amused, and says, “I knew who you were when you came in, Stiles. You just didn’t seem to want to talk about it, so I didn’t.”
Stiles falls into his seat and gapes at Derek. “How?”
Derek snorts, “You came to the library with Gal Gadot. You weren’t subtle.”
Stiles kind of sputters about that because he’d forgotten she’d been there–but Derek just rolls his eyes, and leans across the table and kisses him. He’s blushing when he pulls back, but firm when he says, “Shut up and drink your milkshake. I’ll drive you to set.”
We got new sand but it’s way bigger than the old sand (and gets stuck when you’re trying to pour it out of the top….)so it deserves a different label to help differentiate.
