Summary:
“We’re supposed to be the protectors of Beacon Hills,” Derek says. “You raised me to care about people, so that’s what I’m doing.”
Talia’s lips twitch a little, this soft frown that Derek hates to be the cause of. But he needs his mom to hear him, needs her to understand that they have the power to do something, and, therefore, they should. He needs her to understand that the abundance of caution has gone on for five years too long. He needs her to understand that the people of this town – this kid included – need someone to look out for them, and it should be this family.
Talia says, slowly, “I’ll check it out.”

Because I Trust You
It’s such a simple phrase, but it means everything. All Isaac has ever wanted is to be trusted, and he is. Scott trusts him. Though, looking at him now, Isaac knows there’s something Scott’s not telling him.
It isn’t just trust. It’s more than that.
“You trust me?” Isaac asks. His voice is soft, almost teasing. The pieces are coming together now. Isaac is starting to get it.

A retelling of the Teen Wolf series where Isaac doesn’t leave. Spans from season 3A to season 6B.
In The Monkshood Haze
“Fine,” Theo says.
“Fine?” Liam echoes.
“You can help me,” Theo says, like the emphasis really matters, like it really makes any difference. (It probably doesn’t, but he’s always been the type to cling desperately to whatever power he can get his hands on.)
Liam just grins at him.

Or the first year after the war and the love story of Theo and Liam
Brown Eyes Meet Blue
“Hey?” Isaac says, brave when he doesn’t have to be, brave at all points, braver than Scott could ever hope to be.
“Hi,” Scott answers, faint with question. He’s thrumming with everything unsaid, with this moment locked between them.
“I’m happy we’re doing this,” Isaac says, slow and a little clumsy, but honest too.
“Me too,” Scott says, reaches for Isaac’s hand. He covers it with his own, bleeds his warmth into him, gives him everything he can – would give him the world, if it was his to share.

Or Isaac and Scott’s long awaited first date
Like An Open Wound
She asks, sternly, “What are you doing here?”
“I didn’t mean to come here,” Isaac answers. Without thinking, his hand finds the side of his ribs, the place where his tattoo lies, where Derek’s pack and Scott’s are tangled together for eternity. His thumb strokes over the spot, through his shirt and dulled, but gentle and reverent nonetheless. “This place, this day, Erica and Boyd – all of it just feels like, like.” Isaac doesn’t have the perfect word for it, manages only, “Unfinished?”

Summary
Allison says, “This is my boyfriend, Isaac–”
“–Lahey,” Scott finishes for her.
Isaac smiles at him like he can’t help it. It starts as a twitch at the corner of his mouth and then it slides across his features until it takes over his entire expression. The joy is too big for his face, breaks him apart and shatters him so beautifully as he laughs a little and says, “Holy shit.”
