I'm baffled by the lack of Scott/Stiles in this fandom. In almost any other fandom, the best friends are immediately and enormously slashed together, regardless of canon relationships. The fact that Scott and Stiles are such a rare pair leaves me scratching my head so hard. I seriously don't get it. There's so much there to work with! But nooooo. That interferes with Sterek and GOD FORBID anyone pair Stiles with anyone but Derek.

I really enjoy Stiles and Scott's interactions, but I always get more of a brothers vibe from them and therefore don't slash them.

Barely familiar with the show, but I'm confused, too. I would have expected either the two best friends or the two werewolves (Scott/Derek) to be the primary ships. The common denominator here seems to be Scott. Maybe it's something about the character or the actor that isn't ringing fandom's bell? (Though I liked him okay in the two episodes I watched so far).

NAYRT

I think you've hit on it. I think there would be a lot more Scott/Derek at least if Scott were more popular. For some reason, I still don't think that Scott/Stiles would be that popular, although I can't tell you why I think that - it's just a feeling I have.

I think there's at least a couple of things going on here (these are just my observations) -

1) Fandom didn't think much of Scott after S1 and although I think the writers made a deliberate effort to rehabilitate Scott's character in S2, I'm not totally sure how much it worked.

2) The Scott/Allison thing. I've observed that fandom tends to be reluctant to break up canon pairings that are there from the beginning (that's the important part). Scott and Allison are kind of seen as a package deal, although I think that's maybe been a bit less so since the end of S2, and may account for some of the Scott/Isaac that's becoming more popular.

Well for me at least it's about Scott being really unsympathetic character. I dislike him to the point I never did any other main character. He's boring, selfish, stupid and boring.

But I also don't ship Sterek, which makes it hard for me to have fun in fandom. My ships are Jackson/Stiles and Isaac/Stiles and Papa/Mama Argent (I would love to read stories about their adventuuuures before Allison was born).
