Summary
It's been over a year since the outbreak and Theo wakes up each day with just three goals: scavenge, survive, sleep. It isn't a good life, but it works for him. That is, until everything falls apart when he rescues a menace to post-apocalyptic society, otherwise known as "Liam."
For you my body yearns;
for you my soul thirsts,
In a land parched, lifeless,
and without water. -

Summary
Senior year at BHU was supposed to be Theo’s year to slack off. His med school applications were in, his GPA was perfect, and his plan to pass the year in a drunken haze was on the verge of becoming a reality. But then he made the mistake of sitting next to the walking red flag that is Liam Dunbar on the first day of class.

Summary
She heard the quiet whine of something fast and aerodynamic cutting through the air before she fully processed what it could mean. Scott’s even tread stumbled and slowed, and she spun around on the balls of her feet just in time to see him pitch forward, a short black crossbow bolt sticking out of his back.
Hayden screamed. Somehow, she managed to get her arm around him before he fell.
“Go, I’m fine,” he said, teeth gritted.
He sounded like every muscle in his body had tensed at once, and she rolled her eyes. “Yeah, like hell.”

Summary
Theo doesn’t go back in the cage. He’s allowed to hose himself down and drag himself with a small meal back to his cot in the cell. The door is closed, but the lock doesn’t click into place.
Theo doesn’t eat. The bowl of meal sits on his trembling knees as he presses his hands flat under his thighs and rocks back and forth on the edge of the cot, mouth opening and closing, eyes distant and cold as glass.
You crouch in front of him.
“Theo,” you try again, the first time in years.
“Tara,” he says, shocking you. Your eyes widen. “I wish you were here.”
But he’s not looking at you. Through you, perhaps, but at the wrong angle.
“It wasn’t worth it,” he says. “It wasn’t. It wasn’t. It wasn’t.” His breaths are wet, but his lashes stay dry. “Not for your heart. Not for it to be treated this way.”
“Theo,” you cry out.
It’s his twelfth birthday. It feels cruel that now, in more ways than one, you'll never be his big sister again.

Or: Five times Tara and Theo tried to hurt each other, and the one time they finally realized they were not each other’s enemy.

Summary
"He doesn’t move, a temporary monument of senseless indoctrination, indiscriminate fear-mongering, an ideological sacrifice. Condition: Terminated."
Theo decides to stay in Beacon Hills after the events of the Ghost Riders and Monroe's Army. He's not sure why, knows that the town will probably be attacked by some big bad again (spoiler: Theo's right), but while he can't find a logical reason to stay, he can't quite find any push to leave either.
An exploration of Theo Raeken, everything that he's been made to be, and all the potential that remains. It is, first and foremost, a story of Theo's journey, built around the narrative of a new threat in Beacon Hills and eventual Theo/Liam relationship. Will feature appearances from other Teen Wolf characters (to be updated as we go): Alec, Nolan, Sheriff Stilinski, Jordan Parrish, Scott, Stiles, Derek, Peter, the Calaveras.
Starts in season 6, goes past the finale from chapter 3 onwards. Inspired by Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and Albert Camus' essay, The Myth of Sisyphus.
