Summary
The cold wind clung to her bare hands.
A shiver passed through her chest and pressed deep into her heart. She was back. Again.
Why was it always this beach? Why did it keep pulling her back?
And she could still feel his hand in hers. The firm press of his colder fingers clenched around her all too human ones. The pulse of a single heartbeat in his new chest. New, new, new me. They had forever. But that forever turned out to be too short and she felt the waves sweep him out of her grasp.

Summary
Steve and Robin get a two bedroom in Hawkins. It's perfect, except for all the ways it isn't. Drafty windows, clogged drains, shitty landlord. But it's got a couch. A couch that's often occupied by Eddie Munson. Home isn't really the kind of thing Eddie has much of anymore, ever since his trailer became the primary source for all his nightmares. Luckily, he knows of a semi-comfortable couch where he's always welcome.
Despite all it's problem, the house has perks. Primarily, it's somewhere Steve can actually call home. Secondarily, it's somewhere he can share with the people he loves.
AKA: The fruity four live in a convoluted roommate situation, and romance happens along the way.

Summary
It had been two and a half months since the end of Spring Break.
Eddie had been cleared of all charges, The Byers were back in Hawkins like they’d never left, Vecna was dead and gone, and everything was back to normal; or rather as back to normal as Hawkins could get.
Unfortunately for one Steve Harrington, his new normal seemed to be not only his inability to get a date, but also his newfound proclivity towards staring at Eddie Munson’s mouth while he dramatically narrated during a five hour Hellfire session, or counting the freckles on the bridge of his nose, or memorizing the patterns in his honey coloured eyes.
What the fuck was wrong with him?
(Now with Eddie’s pov added!)

Summary
“Look, I’m just asking, okay? Not– I don't mean anything by it. But, uh.” His eyes darted back and forth, then he leaned in close to Steve. Steve had gotten used to that, kind of. The guy had no concept of personal space. “Are you flagging?” Eddie finally finished.
Steve shook his head slowly, eyes narrowed. He had no idea what that meant. He had no answer. “What?”
Eddie leaned away from Steve, facing forward again and nodding. “Okay, got it. That answers my question. Carry on.”

A (mostly) innocent question leads Steve Harrington on a journey of self-discovery, friendship, sex, and romance.

Summary
Silver is out of his chair and across the room before he knows it. He has a grip on the barkeep's shirt before he knows it, and he's pulling him up, hauling him eye-level, only to head-butt him to the ground again. The barkeep's mouth is thrown open in a wail, but there's no sound, Silver thinks, no sound at all, save for the blood rushing in his ears as he looks at the other man on the ground, watches him roll to his side with a groan.
Flint, Silver thinks, and nothing else. It beats around the knife in his gut like a drum. Flint.
And then Flint is looking at him.

Summary
“Best of three, then,” Silver says, clapping and rubbing his hands together. “When you lose, you–”
“When?”
“If,” Silver corrects, immediately, but with a tone like he’s indulging the idea of Flint winning rather than actually entertaining it. “If you lose, you’ll have to remove an article of clothing.”Flint stares at him. Silver smiles back, mouth like a scythe.
“What?"
If Silver’s got the nerve to organize a rum soaked nudist arm-wrestling ring on Flint’s fucking ship, in the middle of the fucking night, in the middle of the fucking ocean, he’d better stand up and take the credit for it - and whatever else may be coming his way.

Summary
It's only when the children finally break through the dense crowd that Silver realises three things in rapid succession; they are all girls, none of them are older than ten, and all of them—all of them, including the tiny one trailing in the back with a thumb in her mouth and a one-eyed doll in her hand—are looking straight at Flint.
"What the—" Silver starts, slanting Flint an incredulous look, "Are they talking to you?"
“No.”
There's something about the cadence of his voice that makes Silver laugh, once. Then Flint glances at him out of the corner of his eye.
“Hang on,” Silver says, drawing close, “Do you know them?"

Summary
"Silver squints in the darkness, a sharp contrast to the blaring sunlight from out on deck. For a moment, as his eyes adjust to the dark, Silver can’t see Flint. He’s not at his desk, not at his bed. No, the captain is sitting on the floor, knees drawn up to his chest, back to the hull, tucked into that small space beside the bookshelf. He looks impossibly small, like a child hiding from his father’s belt of his mother’s sharp tongue. Even in the darkness of the cabin, Silver can make out the tear tracks lining his reddened cheek. Silver’s not sure he’s ever seen the captain like this, not even after Charlestown."
Set during XXI (S3E3) while the crew is adrift in the doldrums. Flint once again becomes the villain, shooting two of his crewmen. Silver deals with the aftermath.

Summary
Snape rolled his eyes. "You're not scared of blood, Potter. For one, you're a Gryffindor. For another, you seem to face down the Dark Lord with alarming regularity. If you were afraid of blood, you wouldn't have made it past your first year in this castle."
"What do you want me to say?" Harry shouted, suddenly filled with the same irrational anger that'd been so hard to shake since Cedric's death. He jumped to his feet, unable to sit any longer. "What would you have me do? I couldn't make myself break skin, okay? Is that so hard to believe?"
--
Or: a potion requires blood as an ingredient. Harry's afraid of a relapse. Snape just wants to know why Harry Vanished a perfectly decent brew. They come to an understanding.
