This was amazing. Derek was in character and didn't breakdown and start confessing his love like in other stories. Keep up the good work.

[failsapphire]

Thank you! :)

Haha, yeah I can't really picture Derek confessing any kind of feelings too freely. He's a bit of a closed book.

Love it there is not enough of this pair.

[failsapphire]

Thanks. I agree! Hopefully more start coming out of the woodwork. :)

Great story! I loved the way you wrote about Stiles' mom, and the fight scene was awesome.

[failsapphire]

Thanks! I was kind of nervous about writing the stuff about his mom since she hasn't really been mentioned on the show other than in passing, but I decided what the hell.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

This was really good, I loved getting the family knowledge added in

[failsapphire]

Thanks! :)

I really liked this! I wanted to wait to read this until I had a clear plate, and it was worth it. : ) I loved the interaction between the two here. There was a bit of angst, but I felt good at the end -> and I hoped that Stiles gave Derek a hug soon even though Derek would hate every second.

I stole Mrs. Binks since I already had a similar character. Maybe she'll catch on. ; )

[failsapphire]

Thank you. Haha, the mental image of Stiles giving an unwilling Derek a hug is priceless! :)

I noticed the Mrs. Binks thing when I read your fic! I thought it was fantastic. Fun fact: her name was actually a little nod to Tyler Hoechlin's "7th Heaven" days. There was a character on that show - a nosy, elderly woman - named Mrs. Bink.

That's awesome. I love when fandoms collide! I am so tempted to go back and watch him in all his Heavenly glory.

[failsapphire]

Haha, I'm sure that would be fun (and slightly humorous. That show was very... interesting).

I definitely think his acting has improved since that show though, ngl (not to say that he was horrible on that show cause he wasn't... I just think he's gotten better :D).
