A Good Way To Inspire Yourself To Do More Is To See Yourself As The Wacky Sitcom B Plot Character In

me: hey remember that silly werewolf show that you liked when you a weird little teenager? y'know what'd be funny, if you rewatched-

*gets shot by the hyperfixation beam*

...ah damnit

*Stiles and Scott in a car teetering on the edge of a cliff* Scott: Oh my god, Stiles, backwards! Stiles: Really, Scott? I thought I might go forwards into the river, I thought that would be a fun thing to do.

Stiles posts a tiktok of him just strolling through the woods talking about how he heard on his police scanner someone had found a skull and a skeleton hand buried under a tree.

After he trips for the third time in 5 minutes, he pauses for a break and says, “which is so rude, honestly. Why can’t I find a buried skull?”

He takes a deep breath before exhaling noisy, “anyway, look at this tree,” he turns the camera to a grey, dying looking tree. It’s an odd tree compared to the healthy, full and green trees around it. The tree has bare branches that look like hands grasping at the sky.

Stiles makes a humming noise off camera, “a good classic tree to give a sacrifice.”

“You think so?”

Stiles shrieks and his phone drops to the forest floor.

“What the FUCK?”

There’s a few seconds where there sounds to be a struggle and then another shriek echos through the air.

The video keeps playing for a moment before the view starts to shift as the phone is picked up and then the video ends.

The video gains view after view after view and has a couple hundred comments such as

did he die?

bro, what the hell happened?

part 2????

DID HE GET KIDNAPPED?

staged!!!

Where’s the next part?

Bro, I heard he’s actually missing…

WHY WOULD YOU GO IN THE WOODS ALONE?????

Stiles: I am the best at it. Maybe of anyone. If you even care.

I was inspired to rewatch It’s Alive with Brad bc of @melioristicbeast and their wonderful redraws bc it’s been a while and omg every camping episode is EXACTLY how I envision how Stiles and Derek camping together would go lol

anyways

Finally, the first page of the comic project!

When @isthatbloodonhisshirt posted My Name is Derek Hale and I saw the tag 'time loop', I cannot tell you how excited I was - I love time loop stories - and as soon as I started reading chapter two i thought 'man this is a cool visual, I bet it'd work pretty well as a comic'. And hey. Who's got two hands and a can-do attitude towards comic projects? This fella.

So here we go! I haven't done a long-form comic in more than a decade and I'm still figuring out how to draw the boys but doing a comic is always an ongoing learning process (: (part of that learning process is doing covers which uhhhhhhh is going to be at the end of the chapter for Reasons)

(Also Stiles' alarm choice is totally on me, bless Ella for giving the go ahead lol)

Page 2 is scheduled for next weekend!

[P01] Original story on Ao3 by @isthatbloodonhisshirt

Stiles: "Why are you awake? It's barely morning."

Derek: "Werewolves are naturally attuned to sunrise."

Stiles: "Or you're just old."

Derek: "I'm not old."

Stiles: "Says the guy who groans like a grandpa every time he stands up."

Derek: "You're one smart-ass comment away from me hiding your car keys."

Stiles: "Joke's on you lost them two days ago."

save me characters doing fucked up things out of self-preservation…..characters doing fucked up things out of self-preservation save me………..

Fanfiction writers be like:

"here's the immensely time consuming 100K word novel-length passion project I'm working on between my real life job and family! It eats up hundreds of hours of my one and only life, causes me emotional harm, and I gain basically nothing from it! Also I put it on the internet for free so anyone can read if they want. Hope you love it!" :)
