I used to be a big Scott/Stiles shipper, back when I was a little bit obsessed with the best friends to lovers trope. So for the [community profile] fffc fandom battle, I've put together a recc list with my favorite Sciles fics. Most are rated explicit. Please mind the tags, but the only warnings are for MCD and underage on a few.

but we are the crossroads | 10k words
It was only an accident. It wasn't supposed to end like this. Scott's not content to let it lie. He's always felt that he has to do something.

In which Scott is (sort of) Orpheus and Stiles is (maybe) Eurydice.

It's a long, long way down.

My notes: Stiles dies, and Scott does what he knows must be done. Allison, even in death, is the hero of the story, which is part of what makes this such an epic read.

in a box that reads lost and found | 44k
Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, parents can have their children unwound, harvesting nearly one hundred percent of their body for transplant into other humans. When someone is unwound, no part of them actually dies, so their life doesn't technically end. It was supposed to be a peaceful compromise, a solution to the Second Civil War fought over reproductive rights.

For Scott and Stiles, it's anything but peaceful. Both sentenced to unwinding in moments of sickness and corruption, the two of them must fight for their lives as they struggle to make it back to home and safety. Even if home turns out to be where they least expect it. Unwind!AU.

My Notes: I read the book this fic is based off of, which made it even more fun to read.

(Practical) Jokes | 3k
Scott and Stiles engage in a prank war that goes awry.

My notes: Basically gay chicken, but super hot and in character.

Apparent Lack of Ceremony | 3k
Scott keeps climbing into Stiles' bed at night to cuddle. They don't talk about it in the morning.

My notes: This fic is also by Loz, but I just adore the way cuddling turns into more here.

The Truth is When You Said You Headed Home | 4k
Stiles never planned on being in love with Scott forever. But then Allison got killed, and he had a widowed best friend with a little girl, and even when they moved out of Beacon Hills, Stiles didn't know how to get over him.

My notes: This fic hit me right in the feels. I like how the characters feel older and more worn, but there's still hope.

Whatever the Mess You Are (You're Mine Okay?) | 4k
Scott has no idea what they’re doing.

Well, okay he knows what they’re doing, it’s just… how do you wrap the right definition around ‘I’m screwing around with the guy who’s my brother except we aren’t really related’?

My notes: Stepbrothers AU. Definitely v. hot mostly pwp.

Somewhere in the Middle Turkey | 1.4k
Games boys play. (And then they make out.)

My notes: Some competitive and silly sexy times.

i've woken up on one too many floors | 4.8k
“Come on, dude,” Stiles tells him, planting his hands on the back of the couch and vaulting over it into the hallway of the apartment they’re currently trying to move into. It’s their first apartment together, some shitty little thing Stiles found on Craigslist and sent to Scott in a frantic email. It took Scott less than a second to realize he’d follow Stiles anywhere, and then all of a sudden: a month later they were roping Isaac and Erica and Boyd into helping them move hand-me-down furniture across town, and now here they are, trying to figure out what to do with this disgusting couch that neither of them really wants, anyway.

My notes: Def. a cornerstone fic of this ship.

To See What it Feels Like | 2k
And Stiles does want to know everything. Sometimes he looks at Scott like he wants to crawl under his skin and pick apart all of the things that make him work.

My notes: Scott and Stiles experimenting with each other.

Into Me (See?) | 7.7k
The simplest and most understandable way I have ever heard intimacy described is by breaking the word down: in to me see. That is what intimacy is about - allowing another person to see into us, sharing who we are with another person. - Robert Burney

My notes: pretty sure this one counts as a cornerstone fic too.

Wow! These are some classic recs. I very fondly remember reading quite a few of those stories.
