Story Title: Untangled
Fandom: Teen Wolf
Link: Untangled on AO3
Summary: Before heading to college, Stiles gets a summer job as a deckhand on the Hale family yacht, and he has a burning desire to embrace his new adulthood and lose his virginity. He’s disappointed to find that the two most attractive and unattached men on the yacht, Captain Chris Argent and rich lawyer Peter Hale, are already in a secret relationship with each other, and he doesn’t want to come between them. Luckily for him, they’re more than happy to have Stiles between them, and they introduce him to their kinky dynamic and invite him to explore his own sexual interests with them.
Warnings: Alternate Universe - Human, BDSM, Dom/sub, Light Sadism, Masochism, Consensual Kink, Power Dynamics, Kink Negotiation, Kink Exploration, Polyamory, Threesome - M/M/M, Loss of Virginity, Bruises, Biting, Marking, Rope Bondage, Subspace, Age Difference, Coming of Age, Introspection, Asthma Attack, Panic Attacks
Characters: Chris Argent, Peter Hale, Stiles Stilinski, Allison Argent, Scott McCall (Teen Wolf), Talia Hale
Pairings: Chris Argent/Peter Hale/Stiles Stilinski, Chris Argent/Peter Hale, Background Allison Argent/Scott McCall
When I Started: June 2018
How I Lost My Shit: This is the longest thing I’ve attempted to write in years. I plotted out so much and had so many ideas that I think I got overwhelmed by the prospect of it. I’ve attempted to write a kinky yacht romance in almost every fandom I’ve been in, and it’s always petered out, and this one was just the same. Because I don't post WIPs, I didn't get the energizing feedback from an audience to keep me motivated, and I also got overwhelmed by the amount of sex scenes I was committing to. I lost the confidence to get them done and write kink in an interesting way, so I let this fic sit half-written, with no sex scenes, for years, because I was too scared of it.
How I Finished My Shit: I’ve never done WIP Big Bang before, but when I saw the promo posts going around tumblr, I thought it sounded like an excellent way to motivate myself to finish, as I always love fandom events that get me to stick to a deadline and hold me accountable. I looked at my outline with fresh eyes and decided to narrow the scope; I didn’t need to tell an epic story involving a sprawling cast and a long, convoluted timeline; I just wanted to tell the story of this one trip, and this one relationship. I have more people around me now to keep me motivated and ask me about my progress, even when I'm sure I was being annoying by constantly talking about this fic, and I’ve been trying to reclaim my lost confidence with writing kink. I’m getting there.
It's incredibly satisfying to have this fic completed, even before I finished editing; just having those scenes on the page, not hanging over my head anymore, was like breathing a huge sigh of relief. I really hope you enjoy this story that’s been in my head for years. It's far past time for it to be shared.
