  1. Summary

    Eddie Munson's ready and willing to sacrifice his life for his friends, to save the town that hates him, that wants him dead. Except, he's dragged back to safety by the one and only King Steve Harrington. This results in them becoming somewhat friends, and unfortunately, Eddie developing a massive, debilitating crush on the guy. Steve then horribly navigates a sexuality crisis, making plenty of mistakes a long the way, as the weird metal head who's now his friend is a lot more attractive than he remembers him being from high-school.
    After too long of dancing around each other and avoiding saying their feelings explicitly, Steve eventually confesses, very dramatically, and wins Eddie over. Although... Eddie's never had a boyfriend before, because he's never really been in a relationship. Steve's never experienced anything with another guy. They both learn a thing or two from each other as they explore this new, exciting, terrifying thing they've found themselves in. They end up being exactly what each other need, a kind of love Eddie doesn't know what to do with, and Steve has been yearning for his whole life.

    Summary

    November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.

    / or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.

    Summary

    The Captain and Havers weren’t always two men stealing glances when the other wasn’t looking.

    They weren’t always both clueless ghosts obviously pining after each other from across the room 70 years after their deaths.

    Once upon a time, they had been something much more …

    Summary

    “This was like nothing John had ever thought to associate with Sherlock: stubble, skin-tight jeans and three small silver rings gleaming at the crest of one ear. It was unbelievable, like stepping into an alternative universe, and John couldn't stop staring.”

    When Sherlock infiltrates a club in order to track down a serial killer, his altered appearance is enough to make John question his assumption that Sherlock is beyond his reach. However, is he the only one who appreciates his flatmate's charms, or is Sherlock at risk of becoming the next victim? (Warning: reviews may contain fic spoilers)
