5B AU where the sheriff doesn't survive Stiles feels like a walking corpse. He thinks his so called 'friends' don't care about him after he supposedly killed Donovan Donati in cold blood and he finds himself slowly drifting away from not only the world, but from himself. He can't find it in his heart to fix himself no matter how hard he tries. WARNING: includes self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and drug use. Do not read if this offends you in any way.
