Summary
Yet now, sitting in this beautiful, hollow house, with its too-soft carpet and cold expensive art, you’re realizing just how lonely that story must have been.
It’s strange, isn’t it? How someone so surrounded could still end up carrying this kind of quiet.
Even now, with Robin’s constant orbit. Even with all those kids that pop in and out of the center, loyal and rowdy and halfway adopted. There’s still a loneliness here. Something left behind.
You look at him again. Barefoot, sweatshirt gone soft with wear, hair falling into his eyes. He’s staring down at his hands like they’ve done things he’s still apologizing for.
It really is strange, how someone so clearly loved can still look so lonely.
⟡
After a 7.4 earthquake swallows half your hometown, you start volunteering at your old high school gym turned relief center. That's where Steve Harrington shows up—soft, kind, earnest, and nothing like the guy you thought you knew. You’re both carrying some heavy baggage (you're not calling yours trauma, he's not calling his heartbreak), but whatever's starting to bloom between you... you think it might just change everything.

Summary
As he stares down at her, Steve realizes that he will probably always love Nancy Wheeler.
And that’s okay.
Sure, it would always sting, but he would find some way to move on. He just has to find his own Suzie, as Dustin said… And maybe one day he will. Maybe one day he’ll have those six kids and someone to share all that with - someone to grow with. Someone who sees him as more than just some dumb has-been that peaked in high school.
One day, he knows someone will make him feel at least a fraction of what he felt when he was with Nancy. And he’s aware how melodramatic it all sounds, and to some what they had may have just been young, high school love. And he’s not even sure if those people would be wrong. But whatever it was, it certainly left its mark on him.
For now? Well, he’s crawling forward.
Or, at least... he's trying to.

Summary
Vecna is dead. Hawkins is a ghost of what it used to be. With Max waking up from her coma and Eddie having been rescued and brought back from the dead, the group is finally moving on from their past. They try to, at least - it's impossible to forget the horror from the last few years.
While Steve does his best to help Robin through nightly panic attacks, Eddie is trying to grasp the fact that he's alive in a world that doesn't want him.
El's attention is directed toward helping Max through her recovery while her own relationship to Mike crumbles, and Will fights to keep his secrets hidden from his best friend.
It's not easy, trying to live a normal life. But there's always the comfort of each other.Series

Summary
“Yeah, you’re right. They’re too oblivious for that. Honestly, sometimes I just want to play spin the bottle and have you rig it so they’re forced to figure out their feelings for one another.”
Eleven laughed. “Maybe we should just do that the next time we all hang out.”
Max laughed. “Perfect. Then we could say that was our gift to them.”
Eleven smiled and shook her head. The words repeated in her head once again and she gasped. “What if we do that!”
Or:
El and Max decide to give Mike and Will the gift a relationship for Christmas and start the plan that they call: Operation Byler

Summary
Weeks have passed in what feels like the blink of an eye. Hawkins is struggling to mend in the aftermath of Vecna’s wake and with no sign of him, the party have finally begun to focus on healing, but with two of their own still hanging in the balance with undetermined futures it makes moving on harder than what they thought it would be.
Steve and Robin, both now residing in his house, are trying to feel their way through it all, taking baby steps to reclaim some sense of normalcy as the constant sense of dread continues to linger at the back of their minds, shadows around every corner and nightmares that haunt them.
So it shouldn’t have really surprised them when Eddie Munson shows up on their doorstep, having escaped from the labs and coming to them for shelter.
Steve couldn’t turn away their friend, not when he clearly needed help, but right from the get go they could see things had changed with Eddie since he’d been gone.
The question remained though, just how much?
Update: We are now looking at routine Monday updates!

Septic bat-bites and soggy PB-and-Js by katya1828 for setzappersto_pew

Summary
Robin curled an arm around Steve. “All you need to do is keep being Dustin’s friend, Steve. You’re shockingly good at that, though… It might help if you admitted that you’re hurting too.”
“For Eddie?” Steve glanced up. His face had turned white and kinda waxy. “I hardly knew him. I got no right.”
“You’ve got every right. We didn’t know him long, but after what we went through—we all learned to love him. So, if Dustin’s not okay, neither are you, and it majorly sucks.”
setzappersto_pew prompted me for an alternate-ish S4 ending, focussing on Steve actually getting medical care for his bat bites etc., and on the grief of Eddie’s loss. This is only a little one-shot, so it probably doesn’t do justice, but hope you like :)

Summary
“But somehow, despite the frustration, he found himself most at peace when he was around Eddie. Being with him was as easy as breathing. There were no expectations, or rules, or anything. When Steve was with Eddie, he could just be. He had never met someone who commanded a space as much as Eddie did, but in such a gentle way. Eddie’s energy demanded attention, and Steve was happy to give in to it. It felt natural, and witnessing the way he interacted with the kids, how much care he showed for Robin, even how he tolerated Nancy and Jonathan.. It made Steve’s chest tighten.”
or, vecna was defeated for good, everyone was okay, and steve harrington should be happy to be alive. but for some reason, it feels like there’s something missing. he isn’t quite sure what it is until he begins spending every night with a certain curly haired metalhead.
