    Summary

    A glance over at her revealed her face contorted into a familiar expression: one he found, with a pang in his chest, that he’d deeply missed. (Even if it was just an exasperated glare.) A familiarity, an urge to tease, trickled up his spine, electric—a feeling he hadn’t felt in years. It had been…well, forever, it seemed, since those bright, dreamlike years on The Ghost.

     

    Since he had felt so at home.

     

    Ezra and Sabine catch up a little bit, following the events of Ahsoka Ep. 6.

    Summary

    “Do you even know anything about what rabies does to you? Because I do, and let me tell you, it makes you lose your fucking mind—”

    “Yeah, yeah, I know about rabies, Robin, I’ve, like, seen Old Yeller or whatever, chill out—”

    Steve has actually seen Old Yeller, though it’s been a while. He remembers how that story goes, at least vaguely: there’s a rabid wolf, at the end, and the dog enters a fight it can’t win to try and protect a kid or something, and it gets bitten up in the process because no one’s fast enough to help it. It proves itself a hero, in that fight. It dies a horrible, painful, lonely death afterwards and the kid has to watch.

    They shouldn’t be allowed to make shit like that and call it a Disney movie, is Steve’s opinion. If anyone wanted to ask.

    (Steve Harrington has a lot of things on his mind, in the days after the "earthquake." The fact that he feels like he might be losing it is only one of them.)

    Summary

    “I think we should take shifts. Watching Max, I mean.”

     

    In the aftermath of Max's near-death encounter with Vecna at the Graveyard, everyone tries to cope with the day's events. As her friends take turns watching over her that night, Max still struggles to open up, but finds comfort and kindness in the people she chose to live for.

     

    OR:

    Short character interactions in the wake of Dear Billy; a solid 12,000 words of soft hurt/comfort and blatant overuse of the found family trope.
