Summary
It’s dark. Cold. He’s back.
Thick, ash-like particles scatter in the air. Writhing vines crawl up the walls and into the arcade machines, which flicker on and off like faulty lightbulbs. The whole room is gray, devoid of any music or life.
And through it all, there’s a voice. One that Will’s come to know almost as well as his own.
Come back, Will. Come home. Join us.

Summary
It's 1985 and in the quiet months before Hawkins starts to burn again, Mary-Elizabeth MacKinley is already unraveling. She's graduating this year. Vinyl Frontier is relocating. Eddie’s leaving for Indianapolis. Her mom is seeing someone new. Babysitting Dustin is about to be a thing of the past. And the future—whatever that even means for a girl like her—is coming fast. To make things more confusing, somewhere in the middle of it all, Steve Harrington keeps showing up with dumb jokes, soft eyes, and a patience she doesn’t know what to do with.
Then Starcourt Mall opens. Neon lights, minimum wage, and new friendships start pulling everyone back together. But beneath the food court and escalators, something ugly is waking up. Something that makes all the other battles they've fought look harmless. Something that makes the change of growing up feel like the least of Mac's problems.

Summary
When Steve showed up to his shift at Family Video wearing a long sleeved jumper and sunglasses, Robin and Eddie made worried eye contact, and demanded to know answers. Steve refuses, giving the vague answer that small towns have small minds, and waves off any concern from his two friends. But when Tommy Hagan comes in and brags to Eddie about beating the shit out of Steve for defending him, Eddie's brain shuts down for a second.
OR
Steve gets beaten up for hanging out the town's most hated innocent man, Eddie Munson. Eddie is not happy about this arrangement, neither is Robin.

Summary
But then by some sick twist of fate, Billy didn’t die. Getting stabbed all over by some giant mind-controlling monster didn’t do him in. Instead- according to Max- a bunch of people who apparently knew all about the so-called Mindflayer swooped in and brought him to a private military base where they saved Billy’s life.
They called it a miracle.
Billy called it penance.
Or
After surviving the mindflayer Billy stops talking.

Summary
”Why do you have to make everything so fucking difficult, Eddie?”
Max's eyes widened, hand stopping just before making contact with the closed door to Steve and Eddie's apartment.
”Oh, I'm so sorry, your highness. Please keep telling me the same thing over and over again. I can't wait to hear if you put a new spin on it!”
“Quit the bullshit, I wouldn't have to keep telling you if you did it this century.”
This was not what Max had been expecting when she drove over that morning. She expected to knock on the door, be greeted by two lovesick buffoons that had recently moved in together, and grab the Dungeons & Dragons book Mike had left there. Apparently having a car made everyone think they could ask for favors. Well after this lovely start to the morning, that wasn't going to happen again any time soon.
She should leave. She definitely shouldn't press her ear to the door to hear better.
~Or, Max overhears an argument thinking a breakup is imminent and gets The Party to help

Summary
When you and Steve get stuck closing Family Video together, the usual banter takes a turn toward mischief—and maybe something more—when an empty store and a cart of VHS tapes lead to some questionable decisions.
Between late-night chaos, awkward tension, and way too many adult films, Steve might finally figure out that sometimes, taking a chance is worth the risk.Series

Summary
Everyone's moved away from Hawkins, it's just Eddie and Steve and Keith (of all people). The kids don't have time to be calling their old babysitters while they're off living their lives, and Robin keeps calling and urging them to move, to come and see her and get the fuck out of Hawkins. It takes Keith running to Oklahoma and a Blondie song to get Steve on the move.
“Keith is leaving. He’s going to fucking Oklahoma for a managerial position at fucking Family Video. That is an objectively shit life, serving the gods of Family Video, right? But if I stay here in fucking Hawkins Family Video, I’m doing worse than Keith!” He runs a hand through his hair. Eddie’s face is bewildered and oil spattered. “Keith is getting out. I’ll be fucking dead before Keith leaves me to rot here like everyone else. We are going on the road, Eddie.”
“The road?” Steve thinks his tone is sounding more awed than confused now, like Steve is some fascinating species from D&D he absolutely needs to know everything about, right now. It’s been a long time since Eddie’s looked like that.
“Your band. We’ll kidnap Gareth, community college makes him depressed he’ll get over it.” He waves a hand.

Summary
Undertaker wasn't a life that Eddie had ever pictured for himself, but it was where he ended up. Still single, perpetually lonely, never having quite gotten over the fact that when he tried to escape Hawkins to make a life for himself away from the curse of the Upside Down, Steve hadn't followed when he asked.
It’s been ten years since Eddie last saw Steve.
He hadn’t expected the next time he saw him again to be back in Hawkins, let alone in a body bag.- Language:

Summary
“Hey,” Steve said. There were still snowflakes on his cheek - one melted.
“Harrington,” Billy said. From somewhere deep down, he pulled out that million-dollar smile -- the one he normally had reserved for charming women when he’d wanted something, a smile he hadn’t summoned in months.
“Can I get a coffee?” Steve asked. He leaned forward as if he were telling Billy a quiet little secret.
Billy’s eyes flicked down to Steve’s mouth, then back up to his eyes. “Lotsa cream, lotsa sugar?”
“How’d you know?”
“I pay attention.”
Billy heard Jack quietly slip out the back door.

Summary
“Alright, well if you want to pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend, I’m in.” Robin sighed in relief at Eddie’s words after he had straightened up from where he had been bent over the countertop in hysteria. He held a finger up, stopping her sigh in its tracks. “On one condition!”
Robin looked at him questioningly, cocking her head to one side. Eddie smirked sharply, licking his tongue over his teeth in a way that definitely didn’t make Steve’s stomach swoop.
“I get to be the girlfriend.”

Summary
It can't possibly be only five years ago that Steve graduated high-school.
He wakes up daily still in the mindset that he has something to prove to everybody, yet has absolutely no idea what that something is.
And he gets it- that's the worst part- he gets why his parents have thrown him this ultimatum. But panic isn't exactly a motivator. Not for someone stuck in an endless loop of dead end jobs and broken hearts.
Or: Steve gets the big idea about exactly the wrong thing and ends up finding the one silver lining outside of his suburban prison.
