Story Title: The Measure of Ourselves
Fandom: Teen Wolf (TV)
Link(s): AO3
Summary: As Scott struggles to navigate the full moon when it falls on at the same time as the lacrosse state championship, he also discovers what the people in his life are willing to do to help both him and the team make it through.
Warnings/Tags: Full Moon, AU from First Season, First Season Story, Lacrosse Team, Other Canon Characters, Alternating POV, background Scott/Allison, Abandoned and Resurrected WIP
Characters: Scott McCall, Stiles Stilinski, Jackson Whittemore, Danny Mahealani, Allison Argent, Coach Finstock, Melissa McCall
Pairings: Background Scott/Allison
When I Started: 2011, as part of a Teen Wolf Big Bang that ended up petering out before anyone got as far as posting stories.
How I Lost My Shit: When it became clear that the Big Bang wasn’t going to happen after all, I decided to start posting what I had written of the story. Initially the response was good, if minimal, but in the rest of the fandom-at-large, the Sterek fans were busy making it clear that non-Sterek fans (like me) weren’t welcome, and I started to grow more and more bitter. In a fit of pique, I wrote and posted the chapter 9 to this story (of 10) that channeled some of my negative feelings toward what was going on. And, with that, the story ground to a halt.
How I Finished My Shit A couple years ago, I started poking at the chapter 9, trying to figure out where the story had gone wrong. It bothered me that this story was so close to being finished, yet couldn’t be. Finally, I had an epiphany about what needed to be done, which involved a wholesale rewrite of the chapter. When WiPBB sign-ups opened this year, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to buckle down and get the edits made and the final chapter written.
