It's been said before for Teen Wolf, but Sterek. I still do not see what that's about, other than liking the idea of "unconventionally attractive, awkward person gets conventionally attractive, broody hunk of a man thing." And being completely willing to pull the concept out of thin air, because it's certainly not supported in the show.

I'm sure I've mentioned it here before, but I was totally surprised upon realizing that these two don't even seem to like each other in the show.

I don't like Sterek either but I see why people gravitated towards it. Like you said, Derek has the tall dark and broody thing going on that always reels in fangirls and Stiles is the snarky everyman who talks back to him and gets on his last nerve. Foe yay at its finest. And with a lot of fans not really caring much for Scott's personality, Sterek might have been one of the few slash pairings available early on in the show.

personally, I'm disappointed that there isn't more Sheriff or Finstock fics (or Sheriff/Finstock)

Hell, while we are at it, why not some hot Gerard/Finstock/Harris threesome at the Principal's office?

Sterek is popular not for the actual characters but for what fandom makes them to be. It's the classic broody/emotionally constipated hunk paired with the nerdy hyperactive talkative emotionally more mature one.

It was an issue of a few people pulling the concept out of thin air (probably based solely on their own attraction), writing decent/hot stories, creating clever gifs, and a lot of people wanting a pairing or fandom to join in on. I understand that much. What I don't understand are the die hards who loved the fanon ->jumped to watch the show and are fooling themselves into twisting every interaction and utterance to support their imaginary pairing.
