    Summary

    Dustin wasn’t sure if it was lucky or cursed that the first person he stumbled across after getting beaten to a pulp was Steve.

    OR

    A Steve and Dustin centric sort-of-AU-sort-of-rewrite to Dustin getting beat up in Vol 5 Episode 2, because that van scene was nottttt it for me.

    Summary

    The Upside Down is like a virus in many ways, and Steve knows this better than most after being infected by the Byers' Demogorgon. Starting from that first, fateful night, Steve suffers alone many times at the hands of the supernatural, but what happens when the others realize what he's gone through? Will Steve accept their help, or will he reject it?

    Or

    Steve recovers way too quick from his wounds in season four, and I'm exploring the idea of why that could be, how the others react to it, and how Steve is an emotionally awkward dork through it all.

    Summary

    Starcourt Mall was on fire, and Steve was learning all sorts of new things. Like, Robin was the spitting image of her mom, and defeating Russians often came with a concussion. Like, concussions felt a lot like your brain trying to escape from your skull, and Robin was hard to keep secrets from. Like, his parents traveling for the Fourth of July hadn't bothered him before today, and the idea of Robin coming home with him brought... relief? Yeah. Relief.

    Starcourt Mall was on fire, and Steve wasn't exactly sure when things had turned from his to theirs,
    but he was pretty sure he didn't mind it.

    Until they do.

    Summary

    “How long do you think it’ll take?” Steve asks, eyes flickering over to the shoebox of materials. “Like, do you have to go over it a bunch of times to make the ink dark enough? We don’t need them that dark.”

    “It doesn’t even need to be super straight or even or anything.” Robin adds. “Like don’t worry about making them perfect or anything.”

    “Are you guys sure you want tattoos?” Eddie double-checks. These are just verbal confirmations of what he’s already picked up on from their twitchy body language and constant thrum of nervous energy. They’re scared. Which like, fair. But their nervousness gives him pause, makes him wonder why they’re going with commemorative tattoos of all things to remind themselves of the tragic end of their summer jobs.
