    Summary

    Writing letters to the boys makes her feel fake. She's lying in every single word she puts on the page. Lenora is great! I have so many friends! I hang out with them at the roller rink and go to parties on the weekend! School is amazing! Stacy and Angela are the best friends I could ever ask for!

    It's all bullshit. Every word. But there's no way she's admitting to Mike or Dustin or Lucas, but especially Mike ,that she’s fucking miserable in Lenora. That Stacy and Angela aren’t her friends, but rather her tormentors. That she stays home every weekend and reads or studies, rather than going to parties or the roller rink with the rest of her classmates.

    Summary

    Hawkins, 1986.

    Julie Emerson has spent her whole life holding things together—keeping her family afloat through her father’s alcoholism, surviving high school by staying in the margins, and patching herself up when no one else would. The only constant in the chaos has been Eddie Munson, her best friend, her tether—her person.

    But when Chrissy Cunningham dies under impossible circumstances, everything spirals. Eddie becomes the prime suspect, and Hawkins turns into a hunting ground. Determined to protect him, Julie is thrust into a nightmare of violence, grief, and something far worse lurking just beneath the surface.

    As the town unravels and the line between reality and nightmare blurs, Julie and Eddie are forced to face not only what’s coming out of the Upside Down—but the truth they’ve both been running from.
    ...

    She shrugged. “Anywhere’s fine, as long as it’s outta U.S. jurisdiction, right? And Canada ain’t half bad—heard everyone's nice up there and…”

    “You’d… You’d leave Hawkins? For me?”

    “Eddie, I’d leave Hawkins for a stick of gum,” Julie smirked softly. “I'd leave everything for you.”

    Summary

    Heidi was a known girl within Hawkins High school. She's always been known to be assertive and bold, yet to kept to herself. Focused on herself and her own circle, just so she can get by and graduate out of this wretched town. The town that she could safely call home had become cursed.

    Her circle did not involve classmates like Steve Harrington. The stuck-up, snobby, and prissy type. He never talked to her when he had the opportunity, calling her names, making fun of her clothes, as well as how she is. So, why in the hell was he talking to her at Tina's party?

    Heidi decides to bite it and converse with him. It would get him to leave her alone faster. She just wants to get through her final Hell Year. But she finds that the more she talks to him, she sees this as motivation to try and do more before she graduates. To not fade away in the background behind her peers so easily.

    But that plan gets disrupted when she sees Dustin Henderson approach her and Steve at the Wheelers, asking if Steve had... a bat with nails? She doesn't believe it. An inside joke that she's not in on. Her view of the once boring county has skewed into one of disorientation, confusion, and rebellion as she travels through it.

    Summary

    “I can’t, Nancy please, I’m so tired.” Mike pleads.

    Nancy talks a step closer to Mike, he’s rocking from side to side as he attempts to get the tears from falling, “Mike, I need to know you’re okay, you need to come inside, I’ll set everything up and we can call Mom.” She begs.

    Fear strikes Mike once again, flinching just like he did moments before and Nancy sees Mike break right in front of her eyes, letting his legs fall limp to the floor and wet, desperate sobs escape from his throat.

    “No! No, we can’t, Nancy please, I can’t speak to her.” He begs, “I can’t speak to her.”

    or

    Five moments before and after Mike runs away + One moment while Mike runs.

    Summary

    Dustin had always wanted a brother. It had been his birthday wish for years, sometimes accompanied by sobs and screams, demanding one, but the gist of it was, that he wanted a brother. Someone he could shove away and scream at without having to worry about the consequences, because brothers always stuck together. He wanted a safety shield that caught him every time he stumbled.

    Dustin never got a brother.
    He got a Steve

      Bookmark Notes:

      He realised early on that nobody else seemed to constantly sense the emotions of the people around them, or be able to see the memories they were attached to, in a sense. So he kept it to himself and didn’t let himself think about it.

      The ability to influence those emotions was also something nobody else had. Steve kept it to himself and didn’t let himself linger on it.

      Nobody else would accidentally manage to control somebody else’s actions. He didn’t tell anyone and shoved that ability as far down as he could.

    Summary

    Will’s nose bleeds a lot.

    The first few times, Mike just chalks it up to stress. Can stress even cause nosebleeds? He has no idea. But Will was definitely stressed a lot. It made sense, more or less.

    Until it didn't.

    Summary

    Any other superpower would have been better, really. Fire-wielding, telekinesis— even growing an extra arm would have been preferable to mind-reading.

    Will hates his newfound powers, and he hates the constant headaches that come with them, and he hates the weird thoughts and feelings he never even wanted to know about in the first place that constantly invade his mind. He hates it all, but he can’t escape his own brain— so short of removing his head entirely, what can he even do to change it?

    But— thankfully— with a little help from his friends, and a lot of pain from Mike Wheeler, Will learns to control his telepathy— and, maybe, learns a little too much from his best-friend-slash-lifelong-love’s intricately confusing mind.

    Summary

    Even though Eddie's name has been cleared legally, he's still very much on trial in the court of public opinion. Dealing drugs isn't a lucrative occupation anymore, and getting a legitimate job in a town who still considers him a killer isn't much of an option, either. Eddie is beginning to think skipping town and starting over somewhere no one knows his name is the only chance he has left. Steve has another idea.

    AKA: Steve gets Eddie a job as an anonymous columnist at a local newspaper.

    Summary

    “I heard Steve telling Nancy and Jonathan and Robin that he’s gonna take some college placement exams to see if he can get in somewhere and you’re kinda smart or something so you could tutor him.”

    The entirety of her explanation was said into her coffee while her freckled face flushed more and more as she continued to talk.

    “That’s not gonna work, shit bird,” Billy snapped.

    He’d never heard a more ridiculous plan. He was almost certain she’d probably gotten the idea from one of her god awful magazines. He’d seen her and El bent over them, giggling, several times over the last few weeks.

    Summary

    After their breakup, Steve found that being around Nancy and Jonathan was pretty much unbearable. His old friends wouldn't even look at him, and there was only so much time he could spend with the kids before he started feeling kind of pathetic. All in all, he was a pretty lonely person now.

    But was he really lonely enough to consider joining Hellfire club?

    And were they really willing to accept having a dethroned king in their party?

    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

    To prevent Will from being a vessel for Vecna's spying through their shared link every time he gets a tingle in his neck, Mike has to be touching Will to ward Vecna's influence away. It could be a hand hold, a hug, or even a cuddling session. It's awkward for both Mike and Will, especially since Mike is still dating El and El is a big supporter of it if that's what it takes to keep Will safe. But being Will's temporary cure isn't the only problem of Mike's. He's hiding symptoms of being cursed.
