derek and stiles have almost no chemistry or anything that makes me want to ship them.. i started this show thinking I'd end it shipping them like a mofo and was so disappointed. seriously this ship makes no sense to me.

[(Anonymous)]

just judging from my dash, i really shipped them at first! then i watched the actual show and they barely fucking interact, it was so disappointing. ship and let ship etc but jesus i have no idea why it's so popular.

[(Anonymous)]

THIS, SERIOUSLY. I wanted to ship them so badly (still do) but their tiny amount of interaction made me frown. Ship and let ship, as you said, but yeah idk why it's so popular either.. usually the only ships that take over an entire fandom like that are ones that are super apparent.

[rivia]

i think the idea that if they did interact more they could be a good team is what is appealing for some, including myself. also uh, since when has canon interaction mattered? i see people shipping characters who've never even MET.

[(Anonymous)]

considering it's the fandom ship and makes up literally like 90% of the fics, yeah, i would kind of expect it to be based on a bit more.

don't get me wrong, i see the appeal and like all their interactions, but the sheer popularity of it completely blindsides me.

[rivia]

mmm, true. though i dunno which other slash ship have more on-screen interactions, scott/stiles and maybe scott/derek?

[(Anonymous)]

Scott/Isaac

Jackson/Derek

[rivia]

idk if either of those have as much on-screen time as the ones i mentioned i think, or more than derek/stiles, since that's what we're apparently going by. i wish scott/isaac becomes more of a thing though.

[(Anonymous)]

Arthur/Eames

what

two minutes of interaction total, I think?

[wingedthing]

That is pretty depressing. I was assuming that there was just a lot of tension there, but do they honestly rarely interact?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, they hardly ever talk to one another. I wouldn't even say they're distant associates. The MOST "memorable" moment of them being within each other's presence is when Derek had been shot and Stiles moved to check up on him. Frankly, it was within reason. Two, to be exact.

One, if a guy like Derek had taken ill and fallen over and ceased breathing? He could be a space alien for all I'd care--I'd still want to make sure that he was, you know--alive.

The second was that Derek had fallen over, face first and (if my memory serves me right, feel free to say I'm wrong) was that Stiles either tapped his face or open-palm slapped him to get him to wake up.

TBH, I think the creator of Teen Wolf knows this and how some fandoms work. He seems to be milking that part of the fanbase that wants a "canon same gender ship." Which, it's all well and dandy in this Anon's book, but if you're just doing it to pacify your fans and garner attention in that regard by doing it in that method? Then I'm going to stop watching your show.

[(Anonymous)]

Did you watch the show? Have you forgotten the episode where Stiles looks after Derek for hours when he was dying of Wolfsbane poisoning? Or the scene in the swimming pool?

wtfe

[(Anonymous)]

If I haven't watched it, how did I just describe the episode that you mentioned previous post? I've watched a big majority of Season One, thanks. He watched out for him, but he still doesn't think much of Derek and neither of them interact much.

Or the scene in the swimming pool?

Uh huh. Because saving a person from drowning is such a thing of romance. Never mind that it's the right thing that any good hearted person who knows how to swim, would do.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not a Sterek shipper, but I don't know where the "they barely interact" idea comes from. They spend most of one entire episode together, with Stiles trying to save Derek's life. And then Stiles saves Derek another time. They interact quite a bit, and while their interaction isn't the most interesting of any of the characters on the show, it definitely has potential.

[(Anonymous)]

I think that's the point. Or at least that's why I ship them. It's not so obvious at all. They don't interact that often but WHEN they do, it's pretty intense and to me it seems like they avoid each other or try to hate each other but when they're doing something together everything feels so natural. it's something that can develop slowly. it's not THERE from the beginning and that's good. I wouldn't want them to be like Scott and Allison.

[mekkio]

Not to mention that Stiles has made it clear a couple of times that he wouldn't mind if Derek died or at least was gravely injured. Everyone points to the pool thing as an example of Stiles and Derek shipping. Personally, I can't call that shipping material because 1) Stiles isn't really a killer. And he isn't the type to let someone drown if he can help it. Even if it is a pain in the butt werewolf. And 2) Derek may have been paralyzed at that moment but at some time the poison was going to wear off because Stiles had been paralyzed and it wore off on him. So, Stiles would be smart to keep Derek around because what better to fight a supernatural creature than another supernatural creature?

Meanwhile, Derek isn't the type of go attacking non-supernatural people. He actually seems to stay clear of them when he can. It is almost like a code to him. So, why would he break that code with Stiles?

Could not have said it better myself. Thank you.
