    Summary

    The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.

    When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.

    “Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”

    Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.

    ---------------

    Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.

    Summary

    There's a new restaurant across from Eddie's game store - and that is just his newest problem.

    Hot cuisine or whatever it's called isn't something he thought he needed in his life. He's more of a greasy cheeseburgers, cigarettes and dry cereal kinda guy. All things considered, the hip new place with its fancy food and its thriving social media account should stand for everything he hates.

    Except the owner is making it really hard - pun intended.

    Because Steve isn't a superficial, capitalist asshole. He's a nice guy with beautiful hair and great hands and a quirky sense of humor and great hands and a fantastic ass, and did Eddie mention the hands? For some reason, he can't stop staring at them, which is very unfortunate - especially since Steve seems to have made it his mission to introduce him to a more varied diet, and Eddie is developing some extremely inappropriate feelings related to food and cooking here.

    Between burst pipes, DnD campaigns, annoying influencers, and the shiny new mall project that is threatening their neighborhood, it's all a lot to deal with, but he guesses he'll just have to suck it up - pun, again, very much intended.

    Summary

    She died. Cracked and broken. He died. Impaled and standing tall. The Monster took, took until they simply had nothing more to give … Somehow, it’s the first day that Billy Hargrove sets foot in Hawkins High, and there’s this girl looking at him like the ghost he should be. Somehow, Chrissy Cunningham and Billy Hargrove find themselves alive and deal with that, their hearts beating in time.

    Together.

    Or Chrissy and Billy have a startling amount in common, an abusive parent, hyper-fixation on social expectations, and a horrible death at the hands of a Boogyman. She made herself small and pliant, while he made himself big and vicious. They’re just two hurt wild things at heart, who find a family within each other.

    Summary

    Ignoring his biology wasn’t the best idea, but Billy didn’t have much of a choice. He’s spent over a year learning how to cope without dropping, how to manage his needs so he didn’t involuntary slip out of nowhere.

    And now a giant rat just ruined that for him.

    He had the Chief of Police and towns lead babysitter breathing down his neck asking all the questions he’s avoided for over a year, his mind taking him right back to that night.

    “Billy.”

    “What?” He sneered, glaring at Harrington.

    “You’re shaking.”

     

    ~~~
    Steve takes everyone to Disney and finds out Billy’s a little. What could go wrong?

    Summary

    In an effort to close the Master Gate that’s tearing Hawkins apart, Eleven makes a deal with the Mind Flayer: the Hive will contain the threat of Henry's power as long as people stay out of the Upside Down. Interests mutual for once, they work together to seal the gates for good—but in His final act of infuriated defeat, Henry captures Mike as the barrier between worlds closes, never to reopen.

    Will is the only one around when Mike is taken. He’s the only one who believes Mike is still alive, stuck in Henry’s clutches and in desperate need of a rescue.

    When Eleven and the others refuse to break the world-saving truce without proof that it won’t be a wasted effort with disastrous consequences, Will is left trying to find answers (and Mike) on his own.

    Summary

    “Stevie… Don’t do this to me...”
    “-if you - wait - d-do what?”
    “I’ve been trying not to have this talk…” She’s looking everywhere but at him.

    A chill runs down his spine. “I think we should have it… I - I need it. If you don’t want to, it's okay. I get it. That’s enough of an answer… But I do think I need to hear it. The more time we spend together, the more I keep forgetting this is supposed to be fake. And this hasn’t felt fake for a while now. At least not to me.”

    He can see her conflicted face. She’s too transparent.
    He sighs, resigned. He’s sure that if they’re quiet enough, she can hear the sound of his heart shattering. “Does that mean you finally came up with a reason to break up with me then? Please tell me it’s not super herpes…”
    She barks a laugh, but also looks on the brink of tears. “I - I should be honest with you.”

    Steve’s heart falls to his ass.
    Right on time for her to stomp all over it.

    Because here it is. This has to be the moment when she breaks his heart.
    “I - I don’t think I’m a girl, Stevie.”

    WHAT?!

    What if Eddie's transition is what causes Steve’s sexuality crisis?

    Summary

    "When Steve presents as an omega at sixteen, his grandfather is the only one who reacts with anything other than disgust or disappointment. Instead, he very stoically presents him with a wrapped parcel at the family Christmas that year with strict instructions to open it when there’s no-one around..."

    Basically, Steve is spoiled rotten by the pack of pups he accidentally created to the confusion of everyone around him.

    --------------------

    Title from Angel Witch by Angel Witch from the album Angel Witch [1980] (shit you not)
    The album has mad Eddie vibes, I recommend it, but their later stuff isn't as good as the debut album imo.

    Summary

    Halle Henderson is forced into a school project with none other than the new hotshot Billy Hargrove. All she wants is to forget the events of last year and graduate without having to deal with unnecessary drama, especially that revolving around boys. Will she be able to complete the year unscathed or will Billy pull her into his tumultuous life?

    Between dealing with the residing trauma from Barb's disappearance along with the knowledge of a nightmare dimension beneath her feet, Billy's hot-and-cold bad-boy attitude, Dustin's new peculiar pet, and the approaching task of college, her last years of high school might not be as peaceful as she'd hoped.

    Summary

    Summary

    Steve tells the group about his gay awakening. It's not what you think.

    Excerpt:

    "He didn’t want to talk about Tommy. Ever. He didn’t connect the boy to the discovery of his sexuality at all.

    No, that came from someone else.

    And that’s where it gets ridiculous. That’s where he has Robin, Eddie, Nancy, and Jonathan gaping at him in his living room.

    But, if they didn’t wanna know, they shouldn’t have asked. Because one thing about Steve Harrington: he commits to games. Even a silly one like “Truth or Dare.”

    So when Eddie asked him, “So, how’d you know you were into dudes?”

    Steve replied, without hesitation, “Jonathan.”

    He waited a minute for dramatic effect, choosing not to elaborate."

    Summary

    "Eddie Munson, if we make it out of this..." Steve huffed, lugging the limp body of said stoner into the remnants of the Munson trailer that he'd somehow managed to stumble all the way into, "You can give me a tattoo, whatever you want."

    He was shocked and relieved to hear the weak laugh coming from behind the metalhead's wild hair, the strands of dark brown draped over his face like a veil.

    "Now...I have to make it out..." Eddie wheezed, "Cause that's the deal of a lifetime."

    Vecna has finally been defeated, the evil of Henry Creel now vanquished through the combined efforts of every member of The Party...and somehow everyone made it out alive. Sure, Max was in a wheelchair for an indeterminate amount of time, and yeah, Eddie had more battle scars than everyone there combined, but they made it.

    Now Eddie Munson was a free man, with a new trailer and brand new prospects. If only Steve Harrington would stop looking at him like that.

    Summary

    Kat Byers only wanted one night to breathe. One night without responsibilities, without babysitting, without pretending everything was fine.

    Then Will disappeared, and everything cracked.

    Now the world's upside down, her head's still pounding from cheap beer, and no one seems to have any answers.

    Set during Stranger Things Season 1, this is a retelling through the eyes of the oldest Byers sibling. Kat has a sharp tongue, a soft heart, and is one step from burning Hawkins to the ground. This story is about grief, guilt, found family, and the girl standing at the center in combat boots, clove cigarette in hand, and no idea how to stop holding it all together. To make matters worse, she keeps getting dragged into Steve Harrington's orbit, igniting the slowest possible burn between two people pretending they don't care.

    Summary

    “Hey,” he says again. Like he’s waiting for Steve to turn and look at him. And Steve has to swallow hard as he twists back around. Can’t help but notice how hot this guy really is. How much of his type he really is. Nothing like Tommy but a lot like his porn preferences. Nothing like anyone he has been with before but a lot like the fantasies he’s had.
    “Yeah?”
    “Come here.”
    Come here. Oh, it’s so simple but what blossoms inside Steve is overwhelming. It spreads, multiplies and grows, in that one little moment. Like a virus. He’s plagued with it. Words he always wanted from Tommy but always got ‘go away’ or ‘get off’ instead.
    Steve steps towards him. Because it would go against every single instinct if he didn’t.

    or

    Newly single, flight attendant Steve Harrington is getting over a toxic relationship, when rockstar Eddie Munson stumbles onto the 8.15am flight to Chicago and causes severe turbulence.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington is secretly a nerd. He's also, in Eddie's opinion, a massive dick. (Or: five times nobody but Eddie believes that Steve is a giant nerd, and one time he tells everyone else.)

    “Oh, you’re kidding, I love that book,” says Steve Harrington.

    Eddie wonders, for about half a second, if he’s somehow fallen into a different dimension. He stares down at the battered copy of 'The Silmarillion' just in case he’s accidentally been reading like… whatever jocks read, a basketball like — handbook, or whatever. He isn’t. It’s still 'The Silmarillion'. Eddie looks up at Steve Harrington, who is standing at the bottom of the stairs Eddie is sitting on, sunlight in his hair, sneakers shifting awkwardly on the tarmac of the school yard. “Uh-huh,” Eddie says, sort of dumbly.

    Summary

    It was 2023 in boring Hawkins, Indiana, and Steve Harrington didn't know what he was doing with his life. Home from college with a barely passing GPA, recently dumped, and drunkenly careening down a dark country road to the tune of his own misery, Steve was aware that he might be depressed. Therapy would've been the sane solution. But before he could turn around and make that choice, a glowing red hole cracked open in the middle of the road, and he was sent flying through time and space.

    It was also 1985 in boring Hawkins, Indiana, and Eddie Munson had a five step plan on how to fix his life. First, graduate high school. Second, provide a kickass D&D campaign for the nosy little freshman that joined Hellfire. And finally, write more music and go on tour with his band. Okay, three step plan. Absolutely nothing about his plan-in-progress included stumbling across the hottest man he'd ever seen stranded on the side of the road. Or the glowing red portal to hell parked next to him.

    Summary

    Dustin didn’t notice. “It means, Steve, that we could be heroes. True, American heroes. Just imagine,” he starts, and now Steve was intrigued, scooting closer as Dustin painted the picture for him. “You could have all the ladies you want. And more.”

    “More?” Steve considers it and decides that this is something he could get behind. He hadn’t realized when he’d started staring off into the distance like some fantasizing schoolgirl, and when that distance had just become Eddie Munson while he gave some teenager their soft serve. The guy was unashamedly staring, not even giving the teen his full attention. How unprofessional, he thought, like slinging ice cream was a job to take pride in. Eddie looked at him like he was a bug under a microscope, and Steve felt trapped under it. Dustin nods and Steve turns back to him. More. “I like more. What’s the catch?”

    -

    OR; a loose S3 rewrite where Eddie works at Scoops with Robin and Steve, and ends up uncovering a Russian underground base in the process.

    Summary

    She can't recall what horses look like, not until Brenner presents her with the novel. The front is dark, the color of moss and night. Slivers of gold shine in the fluorescent light of her gilded cage.
    He never knows that what he gives her is hope.
    Crossposted on FFNET, Quotev, and Wattpad.
    On hiatus, will likely return mid to late 2025. Expect full steam ahead as Stranger Things 5 begins in October!

    Summary

    "Red touches black, poison lack. Red touches yellow, kill a fellow." A silly rhyme, to help remember the difference between a harmless kingsnake and a deadly coral snake. Wayne taught it to him when he was fourteen, and Calpurnia settled in the form of a scarlet kingsnake.

    Given the way people recoil when they see his daemon, he's pretty sure no one else in Hawkins has ever heard it before. Or maybe it doesn't matter - maybe Eddie is the one they think is toxic.

    ****

    Vecna is defeated, Max is saved, and Eddie's name has been cleared. All should be right in the world of Hawkins, and Eddie's only concern should be his inconvenient crush on Steve Harrington. But there are people who still think Eddie is guilty of murder, and they're not willing to let it go.
