Summary
Leo struggled to catch Mike’s face as he moved around the kitchen. Mikey didn’t move this much when he was talking to his brothers, normally. But today, the ploy was obvious, and Leo had to give up trying to face him while talking.
“Dude?” Mikey started, finally looking right at him, “is something wrong?”
Leo glared at his brother, “no.” He bit out, hating himself for falling right into his brother’s trap.
“Hm, that’s interesting.” He turned around, the fucker, and kept talking while facing his pot. “I could—and ma—only if—Donnie—” the words broke around each other, giving Leo nothing to work off of except Donnie and a possible ultimatum? He wasn’t sure, and Mikey knew it. He looked over his shoulder, a smug grin barely hidden on his face, “You not gunna answer me, man?”
//
Leo starts to lose his hearing and decides his brother's don't have to know, that goes about as well as expected.

Summary
Of course, nothing ever went Leo's way. Why would they? The universe had it out for him, he knew it. A wanted poster pasted on the fates wall. 'This one', he knew they’d say, 'this one deserves it'.
Maybe they’d just cut the leg right off, maybe they’d slice him down the plastron. Maybe they’d let him die. Wouldn’t that be something, Leonardo, leader, brother, killed because his knee hurt a little.
With that, he pushed his arms to move, blocked the sword, and stood the fuck back up. Pain was in the mind, anyway. What was a knee to him? He could overcome anything, and he would overcome this.

Leo came back from Costa Rica and everything's not exactly going great.

Summary
One thing that Leo could confidently say he did not miss was how loud mornings were among his brothers. Well, just Mikey, really. Raph and Don would sleep through a construction crew tearing the walls to their own rooms down. Mikey and himself were up early, though, and had conflicting views on what the early hours of the day should look like.

“You can’t love me,” Merlin said, pointing his finger into Arthur’s chest, “you didn’t have a choice, it’s just destiny thrust upon us.”
“I don’t know what to do then,” Arthur croaked, the words tumbling like pebbles out of his mouth “if my love isn’t real, then what is it?”Or
Merlin and Arthur struggle with opposing views on destiny, if fate means you have free will, and figure out what really matters

Summary
“You’re smirking. Is something funny?”
Wayne does often say Eddie’ll make a terrible poker player. No mystique, he’s often said, which made Eddie quietly stress for weeks afterwards that he’s accidentally been giving away the twists in his campaign with unconcealed facial expressions. Beleaguered, he has no choice but to be fully and completely honest with Steve, which, he’s found in their lengthening interactions lately, Steve does not like.
“I thought it was funny how you very carefully calculated how long of a stride you’d need to take to avoid that puddle.” Eddie answers, and Steve’s brows predictably furrow, the way they always do when he regards Eddie.

Summary
Fate has a funny way of flipping everything on its head. It has a way of calling back to moments that felt so… nothing at the time, so utterly insignificant, yet brought a whole entire person into being.

Steve gets a mandatory blood test following exposure to the demobats. It changes everything and nothing at all.

Summary
The Hawkins Police Department doesn’t actually spend its days investigating missing children or government conspiracies or serial murders. Nope, most of the time it’s just little crimes, regular nonsense. Too loud parties, disagreements at bars, suspicious kids surrounded by skunky smoke. Normal stuff.
More than once, at the end of those everyday calls, there is a familiar face: Steve Harrington—and also, that no-good punk with the long hair.

Summary
Just as Steve is starting to fiddle with the fly on Eddie’s jeans, a police siren gives one short whine from somewhere close behind them, and Eddie’s eyes fly open to see red and blue lights bouncing off the surrounding trees.
“Hey, morons!” someone yells from outside the car, and Eddie immediately recognizes the voice as Chief Hopper’s, “Outta the car – now.”
He’s not all that worried, believe it or not. Eddie’s got a pretty good amount of faith in Steve’s ability to spin up some story to keep them out of any real trouble, and as they sheepishly climb out of the car, Eddie prepares himself for a whole show of, “Yes Chief, sorry Chief, it won’t happen again Chief.”
So imagine Eddie's complete and utter surprise when Hopper barks, “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” and Steve only rolls his eyes and says, “What’s it to you?”

Summary
The first time Robin noticed it, Steve was helping a customer at Family Video.
He was in the middle of a sentence, i the middle of a transaction behind the register when his eyes drifted up towards the ceiling and his voice trailed off. His jaw shifted around and he chewed on his tongue.
It was like he was completely vacant.
It lasted a few seconds, and he snapped back in, finishing his sentence and continuing the transaction like nothing happened.-
Steve's been having seizures.
