Why this must be read:
I was so excited when this epic, epic fic was finished so I could rec it. The basic premise of this fork-in-the-road AU is that Stiles, not Scott, was bitten in the first episode; the changes spiral out from there as Stiles deals with his new wolfiness very, very differently. Much as I adore the series (and Scott), I honestly think Stiles' attitude to the transformation and Derek is better. The end result is a pack-in-waiting ready to deal with the Alpha together.
I liked the Danny/Stiles relationship in this fic. Although Danny is used as a plot device to allow Stiles to grow a little before hopping into a relationship with Derek, the relationship isn't just a plot device. It's a realistic high-school romance that Stiles is committed to; he's not just pinning for Derek. Danny is still pack, even when he decides that he's not willing to be anybodies' second best.
Oh, and definitely read the other fics in the series after you read this behemoth. I really loved reading canon!Stiles perspective on wolf!Stiles when he crosses into the canon universe.
