Don't Fail Me Now

4.5 stars

This fic puts the reader inside Stiles' mind as he experiences Stockholm syndrome. He knows Peter is fucked up and manipulative, but he is already fucked up himself from the Nogitsune, and finds himself more afraid of his reality without Peter than what he experiences under his control. It's very dark and stays that way, which I think is appropriate because fluff would have felt totally out of place. Mind the warnings - there is violent rape and bloodplay so it's not for the faint of heart.

I think it would have been better if Stiles' acceptance had been more gradual, and Peter's use of endearments seemed excessive to me, especially because I can only imagine him saying “sweetheart” sarcastically.

I loved everything else about it though, and ate this up as quickly as she spit it out!
