117
A de-aged and amnesiac Derek finds what remains of the old Hale house when a police car pulls up. Parrish and Haigh step out, Parrish telling Derek he can't be there. Derek says it's his house, and Parrish says to try a gentler touch. Parrish asks if Derek's alright and they can help him if something's wrong. Derek asks what happened to his house and where his family is, when Haigh gets impatient and grabs him. Parrish says to stop, which distracts Derek and allows Haigh to taser him. Parrish tells Haigh to stop, but he doesn't and Derek is taken into police custody.

At the station, Parrish goes over to Derek with the handcuff keys. He tells him that Haigh thinks he's an idiot for wanting to let Derek out of the cuffs, but Parrish figures that he'll cooperate so they can help him find his family. Derek nods and Parrish unlocks the cuffs. Derek says that Haigh is the idiot and Parrish can't disagree with him there.

The Benefactor
Derek takes the Mute's glove to Stilinski, who asks why the guy was just carrying around a tomahawk. Parrish enters the office just in time to hear this and says he used one for IED removal in Afghanistan. He sees the glove and says that it's military tech, but the one they have has been modified. Derek silently gives Stilinski permission to allow Parrish to help them with what's going on.

Parrish uses the glove to track back an IP address, when it suddenly moves and Derek asks what that was. Parrish says that it was a message and asks if he recognizes the handle "Benefactor". Another message is sent about a cash transfer and Derek asks what that means. Stilinski says it means they're dealing with an assassin.

Perishable
Parrish is brought to Derek's apartment where Derek looks him over after he was set on fire. Derek asks if he was covered in gasoline and Parrish nods his head. Lydia points out the hair and nails, and Derek says that they should be gone. Parrish says that all of him should be gone, and Scott says that's not true if he's like them. Parrish is confused and Derek's pretty sure he's not like them. Lydia asks what Parrish is supposed to be, but Derek isn't sure since this is out of his wheelhouse. There might be something in the bestiary, but Parrish interrupts to ask if they're all psychic like Lydia. Scott and Derek then share a look and Derek silently gives him permission to reveal their secret.

As they go over everything that's happened Scott tells Parrish that everyone on the list is a supernatural creature. Parrish says that he doesn't even know what he is and Derek says that the assassin's don't care. Parrish asks how many professional killers there are and Scott's not sure it's just professionals anymore. Parrish says that Haigh's never tried anything like that before, and Derek says that anyone who has the Deadpool can take a chance. Parrish asks who else would have it and asks how easy is it to get it.

Fanon
Darrish is a rarepair in the Teen Wolf fandom. A lot of shipping comes from the episode "The Benfactor", where Derek helps Parrish and Sherriff Stilinski with the Deadpool case. Derek and Parrish are also the only two main characters that are in their age range, as everyone else is either a teen in High School or the parent or a teenager. Many wanted to see the two interact before they ever did so, as Derek really needed friends his own age.

On AO3, Darrish is the third most written ship for Parrish and the fifteenth most written for Derek. Currently there are 190 written works.
