Hello, Wolfies

An interview with stxlinskies

Why did you start a Theo Raeken fanfiction?

Well, I've always wanted to be original with my stories, and I must have started planning it as soon as I found out that Cody Christian was going to be in Teen Wolf. I checked the tag for any Theo Raeken stories and there were none. I just decided to write Little because I knew that I would want to read a fanfiction when Teen Wolf came back on air, so instead of reading it; I wrote it.

What is your favorite thing about Grace Stilinski?

I guess it's sort of my least favourite as well, but I love that Grace is she finds the good in people. I'm pretty sure in one of my chapters that I had referred her as 'the mother of the pack', as she loves all her friends like she would a child, even if Malia had killed her own sister and adoptive mother, and Kira is literally known as a trickster. Most people wouldn't be able to trust people like that; but she does. And the reason it's also my least favourite feature of hers is because she cares for people who could potentially be bad. At some point she even trusted Peter, and that didn't end well, and it's obvious that Theo is sketchy- but once again, Grace trusts him.

Is Grace ever going to kiss Theo again just like in the fourth grade?

Well, it is a Theo Raeken fanfiction, but I am really excited to see Theo and Grace's relationship grow. I think there will be a lot of interesting scenes between the two, seeing as Grace is so innocent and Theo may not be as innocent as she would have hoped.

Since I've seen quite a few people including yourself ship Griam, will they ever have something more?

Not that I've planned. I'm not a big fan of love triangles and I never really intended for Liam & Grace to be a thing. Maybe it's because I have a special place for Liam in my heart, and can't help but put him in my story as a cute bundle of joy, and yes, Grace loves him- just like another brother. I think I might continue their harmless flirting for a bit, though, because it is fun to write.

How will Grace react when she finds out the real side of Theo?

It's hard to say if she will find out, to be honest. I have planned that she'll get so entranced by him, that she won't even notice that he's bad. Not as in though: she's obsessed with him, that she can't go without him- because she can, she's much more independent than that. I mean as in that she will think that she's pulling him to the good side, but in reality, he's pulling her into the bad side. I think it will be fun to play with the good & bad side of Grace Stilinski.

What's your favorite OTP and BROTP that you have created so far?

It's not exactly just one BROTP, but I kind of love Grace with all of the sophomores. Liam & Grace have this sort of flirtatious friendship, Grace sees herself in Mason, as in she was very much like him in sophomore year; figuring out what the holy hell this supernatural stuff is about. And then Hayden: she's very much a younger version of Grace. Not a lot of people see Hayden as a nice person, but I love her because when she was speaking to Tracy in episode 3 she was a sweetheart, and that is what Grace is like. Grace is nice to everyone, but if you cross her- there's going to be trouble, as displayed when Stiles scared her; she didn't speak to him for a whole day. And obviously; I love the dysfunctional relationship of the Stilinski twins, just because they're so different but also so similar.  

As for OTP, it's obviously going to be Thrace, because a) I'm obsessed with Theo and season 5 and b) I have some great things planned for the two. The two's relationship has history with the whole fourth grade thing, but because they're both so different from when they were younger, it's almost like a whole new relationship has been born.
