Summary
Two people drawn together through the ordinary hurts of life. Predictable. Boring. Robin’s always felt that, if the universe thought that one person mattered more to her than any other—if it saw fit to give her a heart-bound lover or destined best friend or particularly important cousin—it at least owed her the courtesy of telling her in an equally dramatic way.
Why should the script stop at the players? Why not write the scenes? Or at least massage them enough that she gets to meet her chosen soulmate via, like, an arrow through the shoulder instead of a skinned knee. Something epic and scarring. Something that she can trace on her body.
(Or: Robin and Steve are soulmates in a world where you feel your soulmate's pain.)

Summary
Several things happen in very quick succession.
The fishing net tugs on an oar leaning precariously against the wall. It hits the floor with a crash louder than Dustin’s frantic negotiations. Both Eddie and Steve flinch forward.
And Steve chokes.
(Or: Robin trips in the boathouse and sets off a chain of events that might just kill her best friend.)

Summary
There is one fact that is repeated in all the old legends, all the old histories of stars and their falling. If you cut out the heart of a star, and consume it, it will grant you eternal youth.
Steve Harrington has a secret, and a scar over his heart to match it.
