Summary
Eddie doesn't expect to get into trouble for his recent drug business, although he probably should have. Even less does he expect Steve Harrington of all people to save his sorry ass with a nail bat that looks awfully at home in his hands. Least of all, though, does he expect Harrington to insist on skipping town for a while to avoid the fallout.
The Winter holidays of '84 seem intent on proving him wrong on all fronts. Thrown into a spontaneous road trip-slash-cut-and-run to San Francisco—just until things back home blow over, Munson—Eddie has all the time in the world to confront such questions as: why would Harrington care to help him? Why does he wake up from nightmares more often than not? And, maybe most importantly, why is the former King so ready to leave Hawkins behind on a whim?
Or: idiot boys make impulsive idiot decisions, and along the way—reluctantly but inevitably—they fall in love. A story of endless winter streets, finding family, and leaving home to find a new one.

Summary
Steve knows the complicated jumble of feelings that Eddie is dealing with well–it’s the way he felt while Dustin told him not to worry about Max driving the car, pressing an ice pack to his battered face, the way he felt when he realized that, despite everything, they hadn’t been willing to leave him behind.
To be loved, to be shown love, is a concept that Steve still struggles with, even when he craves it desperately.

Summary
“It’s Jonathan Byers,” Eddie continues. “I don’t get it! You, Wheeler—What’s the appeal with this guy? What’s the allure? No offence, Byers.”
“None taken,” Jonathan says, unfazed.
“I mean, it’s like being attracted to a piece of paper,” Eddie says.
Jonathan frowns. “Some taken.”
Eddie can't wrap his head around Steve dating Jonathan. Jeff is an involuntary witness to, apparently, every single discussion about it.

Summary
The scene that fades onto the screen next is a ceiling shot of the whole party, mirroring their exact positions in real time, everyone but Steve is frozen. Steven looks from right to left and back again, exhaling slowly. The ringing of a phone cuts through the air and his head snaps towards it. His face is unsure. He stands up and slowly makes his way over to the phone, makes several aborted movements to pick it up before taking it off the hook and hesitantly holding it to his ear, someone breathes on the other side and the line crackles with it, after a few seconds a harsh voice grates out of the phone,
[Grabber]: “When were you going to tell them, Finney?”
[Steve]: “I wasn’t.”
The person on the other line giggles which turns into a manic laugh, the laughter, the ringing, the static, they all get louder and louder until the room starts to shake violently and then all at once the line clicks dead and it’s silent. Steve stares hollowly at the phone before hanging it up. The screen goes black.

The phone rang.
Steve shot up, walking toward it, his nerves lit up in memory-old anticipation and dread.
***
Steve Harrington has tried to push the past down, away, to lock it up.
But he knows better than anyone that you can't keep anything hidden in the dark for long, and skeletons never remain buried.
When a kid in town goes missing, it awakens his old ghosts, and Steve finds himself trying to balance his past and present selves as he joins in on the search effort.

Summary
No aches. Because he hadn’t been beaten six ways from Sunday yet. His parents in Italy, because they went during his summer holidays in 1983.
The horrible thing about this was that he could believe it. Once he accepted portals to alternate dimension, gruesomely violent monsters from said dimensions, superpowered teenagers and state conspiracies to match it all, time travel wasn’t that difficult to believe in.
OR
Steve finds himself back in the Summer of '83 without knowing how he got there. He just knows that he has to change things and makes a lucky discovery:

Summary
“Tell me why, Steve. Please. I just want the truth.”
Steve pulls into a space near the end of the lot. He would usually park closer to the entrance, but this conversation would be better suited to a private setting.
“Look, I know you've forgiven him.” Steve says, pausing as if trying to find the right words. “I can't get over those photos.”

Summary
The ground shook and split as ash rained from the sky. It was over. Vecna had won. The slippery bastard had beaten them at their own game.
And then Steve was somehow back in his bedroom. No explanation, no warning. He had no idea how he ended up back in ‘83, but by god he had three years to try and change the tide and he wasn’t going to waste them. And hell, maybe he'll get to that whole 'thrown back in time' thing eventually.
This is a fair warning to anyone who wants to read. I haven’t actually watched the first two seasons in years and never put myself through three and four. To save myself. Love Robin and Eddie and Erika but it’s just not the same. So if you see something and say hey wait a minute that’s not how it- shh. Hush. Silence.
Spring prose cleaning 2024 complete, I definitely didn't add like 12k words to the epilogue or something, that would be crazySeries

Summary
Post Barb's funeral, a brutal panic attack drops Steve right into a painful, stress induced partial shift. He calls the only person he thinks would be willing to help-- Lion Shifter!Billy Hargrove.
****
“Harrington.” Billy found Steve huddled in a corner, arms wrapped around his knees and visibly shivering…and partial shifted into the prettiest feline Billy had ever seen.“Oh holy hell.” Billy’s steps slowed and his eyes went wide when he caught a glimpse of porcelain fangs gleaming white behind red lips, the ripple of additional muscle bulging beneath Steve’s tight polo and twin tips of soft, furry ears peaking through the tangled mess of hair. "Look at you."
"B-Billy?" Steve blinked glazed, green and gold eyes up at him sluggishly. "Help me."
"Don't you worry, Pretty kitty." Billy knelt in front of him and reached to cup Steve's chin. "I'm gonna take care of you."

Summary
“Do you remember why you crashed your car?” Steve asks. He pins his gaze on the stretch of black tree limbs against the suede blue of the night sky.
“I hit a deer,” Billy says shortly.
“The thing is,” Steve says, he brings his gaze to Billy, “I don’t think you did.”
Billy scoffs. “What the hell is that supposed to mean?”
Steve shrugs. “Whatever you hit, it wasn’t a deer.”
“Oh really?” Billy asks snidely. “Then what was it?”
“The Monster Squad calls it the Mindflayer.”

Summary
There’s something about watching Steve and Eddie that makes his chest ache, just a little bit. Something that feels like it’s just out of reach, like if he could just jump an inch higher he could grasp it and know what it is, have a name for it, figure out what feels like it’s missing with Max. He never felt like something was missing with Max before. She was perfect. She is perfect! Like, sure, not actually perfect, because nobody’s actually perfect, but she’s perfect for him just like he hopes he’s perfect for her, and they’re perfect together.
Maybe Lucas is overcompensating.

Summary
When Steve nearly runs over Will Byers on that fateful night in 1983, he doesn’t expect offering him a ride home would result in both of them being hunted into another dimension. Surviving there is hard. Adapting to normal life again is even harder. His old self settles like an ill-fitting suit, and there’s no room for nightmares and fear and his new bond with Will in it. As he struggles to find a new normal he can live with, Steve finds himself befriending a bunch of kids and maybe (definitely) falling in love with a local weed dealer.

Summary
[Sokka is five when the first mark appears.
It writes itself in a deep red like a wound, as if someone had carved the word “nonbender” in a messy font across the knuckles of his left hand, as if it was handwritten with a knife.
When he asks his mother, as she applies salve on Sokka’s knuckles, she sighs deeply and says nothing for a few moments.
“Sometimes, spirits don’t make much sense.”
Sokka has yet to turn thirteen when he wakes up screaming in pain, about ten soulmarks all over each other between his left shoulder and his ear, red and vivid like burning flesh. Among the few words that are somehow possible to read out of the disastrous scribbling, “disrespectful” and “coward” and “burned” and “sorry sorry sorry” are the ones that stand out the most to Sokka. He thinks, at the tender age of twelve, whoever did this to his soulmate will be sorry too, one day.
A month after Hakoda leaves him with the job of the protector at the age of thirteen, Sokka realizes, with a bitter taste in his mouth, that he’s got more soulmarks than his entire village combined.]
Or, to have a soulmark is to carry the vilest things that your soulmate believes about themselves on your skin.

Summary
The drama starts, as is often the case, in ANBU.
“No—it’s just—” it’s unusual to see an ANBU hesitate, much less stumble over their words. Stag visibly steels themself. “I’m not sure we should address Hokage-sama as male. Uzumaki-sama called Hokage-sama her wife.”
Beaver pauses. “Oh.”
“But then,” Ox says eventually, “what do we call Hokage-sama?”
// AKA Team Minato is alive and together, Konoha is thriving, and no one wants to accidentally misgender their beloved military dictator that everyone loves.
