    Summary

    The first page greets him with a polaroid: Stiles, disheveled and grinning tiredly, perched on his suitcase in the living room. Beside it in marker block letters:

    BEGIN YOUR JOURNEY. DO NOT SKIP AHEAD.

    Derek scowls at the page, tempted to flip straight to the back. But in the corner in tiny letters:

    Yes, you can turn the page today.

    With a huff, he does.
    The next page has the present date and a short message:

    Here we are on the first day of me gone. I am on my way to get properly educated and you are on your way to find a treasure chest. Wipe that frown off your face, Sourwolf.
    We are both beginning an adventure, so put on something comfortable and pack a change of underwear.

    There’s an actual treasure map taped to the page.

    ---

    What if Stiles leaves for college and Derek decides to stay in Beacon Hills. What if Stiles leaves Derek with a journal entry for every day. An instruction manual. What if Derek follows it and rebuilds his life, page by page.

    Summary

    “You said we’re friends.”

    In the corner of his eye he can see Stiles blink owlishly at that, a thousand hesitations flitting over his face before he settles on, “O–kay, way to hold what a guy says in the heat of the moment against him, got it.”

    No. That’s not the only time he’s said it, and they both know it. In the In-N-Out parking lot, once Derek wasn’t being poisoned by human medicine or crushed under agonizing pain, and Stiles wasn’t about to throw up all over him. A couple times since then. All the buddys and some of the big guys. Derek stares at him long enough to make sure he knows they both know.

    “…Yeah, okay,” Stiles gives in. “I guess, yeah. Seems weird if we aren’t.”

    Derek watches the screen for another moment, head too full for the movie itself but tracking the light and the movement, breathing quietly. “Then, this? All this? It’s inevitable.”

    Stiles says nothing for a moment. Maybe he’s cautious. Hopefully he’s afraid.

    Instead, he whistles in disbelief. “Wow, you are the biggest downer.”

    Derek and Stiles still aren't the main characters.

    Summary

    They know Stiles is a spark, has magic.

    But it is Stiles and it is very hard to figure out what sort. And how to train it.

    Maybe they'd figure it, if Stiles wasn't constantly handing them the trash he found and swore they all needed.
