Stiles isn’t trying to take away from Rapp’s pain here, but before he beamed down from the Daedalus, Derek was down to only yelling at Stiles sixty percent of the time, and twenty percent of their remaining lab shifts were spent giving Stiles looks that he’s almost certain were fond. He gets him coffee on their morning shifts together. Sometimes he waits for him for lunch. Any smiles Derek is throwing around should be for Stiles, not a dude who’s probably carrying at least ten hidden knives on his person.

John repairs the jumper; Rodney applies a theory.

King Richard’s name a tower of strength may be; But still our heroes find they wish to lead A life apart from kings (but not from wings).

John has feelings for his couch.

Who knows what you’ll find on the path to personal discovery?

There’s a first time for everything.

Those wacky botanists and their wacky experiments…oh, the unforeseen side effects!

Set after Siege. The battle is over, except in Rodney’s mind.

Tag for Irresistible. Rodney uses the do-my-bidding weed on John. It goes awry.

Boys, baseball, and the inevitable.
