Sssoooo… apparently my brain goes to mush when I’m feverish?
If you’re familiar with Final Fantasy, you’ll recognize this: it’s a mash-up of of Teen Wolf with the FFVIII logo… with a Sterek spin to it, and a nod to the Fox!Styles fanon. I made two version, but just the one with the Fox and the Wolf made it to Society6.
Derek was wandering through the forest far from home when he heard a soft whining sound. Curious, he followed the sound into the underbrush.
Lifting a low branch, he saw a little fox kit stuck in a trap. The poor thing was whining pitifully and looking up at Derek with big brown eyes. “Shh, I’ll get you out,” Derek said softly, then pried the trap open. Werewolf strength was so useful, even if he was still little.
Free, the fox stepped gingerly on its paw, then climbed onto Derek and scented him happily, making Derek feel like a heroic prince.
Depending on your perspective, I’m either cheating or being efficient. For the @sterekdrabbles prompt: kit, free, prince; and for @smowkie’s sterek drabbles discord challenge: write a drabble with a pillow/blanket fort; AND for the @teenwolfdrabbles prompts: reason (daily) and surprise (weekly).
The pile of blankets in the ballroom surprised Derek, but not as much as the fox kit that burrowed deeper when Derek started dismantling the structure. He sat back on his heels and crossed his arms.
“You’re meant to be abed, Highness,” he admonished.
The young shapeshifter poked his head free of the quilts, chittered at Derek, and retreated again. Though he knew he should summon one of the prince’s minders, Derek also knew Stiles’s reasons for wanting solitude. The paint on his armor was fresh, but Derek was still a sworn knight.
He would stand guard through the night.

Why is that image so evocative and so cute? It might be the word chitter? Idk but I love it.
For anyone who has ever followed, liked, commented or reblogged my work. I just want to say no mater what the future holds for me, thanks for everything. Because I just don’t think I ever say it enough.
I also don’t want to say goodbye as that’s too permanent. And I’m trying to keep hope.
