    Summary

    The descent is slow, like watching someone knock your mom’s favorite crystal vase off the shelf and the sheer horror and panic that overwhelms you and slows time down, makes you think that you can get across the room in time to catch it.
    But you never do, do you?
    The vase shatters and with it, so does every preconceived notion you have of yourself.
    That’s what Steve learns.
    He learns how to fall, gracefully even.
    And in the end, he learns how to shatter.

    Or

    Steve saves Eddie in the Upside Down and it's hilarious and it broke Steve wide open.

    There is family, and oh god, there is so much love.

    Summary


    June 1986
    Steve is lonely.

    He’s always been lonely, honestly. An empty house, absent parents, friends that didn’t really know him. Frankly, he probably doesn’t really know himself, either. It used to be easier to ignore—between sports and parties and searching for the next girl to hang around with.

    Then Nancy Wheeler told him he was bullshit. In the wreckage of the storm, he realized she probably hadn’t been that off base to call his life bullshit.

    [Life in Hawkins, Indiana is boring, ordinary, no supernatural entities. Steve still changes.

    Luckily, he still makes some new friends, too. Certain people are simply meant to be in the same story.]
