    Summary

    Steve Harrington is normal, everyone thinks so. Captain of the swim team, starter on the varsity basketball team, most popular boy in school, absolute heartthrob, handsome, and rich. He's King Steve, Steve “the Hair” Harrington. He's an all-American boy growing up in the heartland. And he's spent years working very hard to keep it that way, because the truth is the last thing he is, is normal.

    No, Steve Harrington has a dark past he's desperate to escape, however that gets much harder when Will Byers goes missing and Steve just can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong in Hawkins, something that's pointing straight to his past. But everything will be fine, right? All he has to do is pretend everything is normal.

    Or, another lab experiment Steve story because I can’t get it out of my head, so I’m sharing it with everyone.

    Summary

    At the boarding house Remus lives in with Lily, Marlene, Mary, and Dorcas (who Remus has never actually seen), there is only a single rule: No Dating. And Remus doesn't find himself having a hard time following that rule. Until he fatefully runs into the most dazzling person he's ever seen, who makes a skirt and high heels and burgundy lipstick look far more appealing than anything Remus is capable of handling.

    Summary

    It's the summer of 1998. The battle is over, and Voldemort is dead, but Harry still has more questions than answers. Who is he without a piece of Voldemort's soul in his head? What is he supposed to do now?

    His friends try to help, but the only thing that can hold his attention—one of the only things that ever has—is Draco Malfoy, out on parole and weirdly hanging around the British Museum.

    As they keep running into each other, Harry sees that Malfoy is different, and he wonders if he can be someone else, too.

    Featuring rumpled band shirts, poker games everyone hates, fumbling sex, and a Harry going a little mental over how wands even work.

    Fic title from "Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve, which was released in 1998. Playlist to get in the late '90s mood.

    Summary

    "Your eyes are pretty," Eddie says dreamily, swaying back and forth.

    Steve cocks his head to the side as his smile grows wider, "Thank you?" He laughs lightly, eyes flickering up and down.

    "Shit! - I mean can I get strawberry," Eddie shakes his head.

     

    Or..

    Eddie has had a crush on Steve for as long as he can remember, little does he know Steve has kept his eye on Eddie too.

    Steve becoming employed at Scoops Ahoy provides the perfect opportunity for the two to finally talk.

    Summary

    Henry who looked just about as boring and predictable as anyone could be. A grade-A, goody-two-shoes square with a hint of brown-noser to boot. He take up with a paper shaker by Easter, be going steady by prom. He’d get straight As, be a teachers’ pet, and graduate valedictorian before going all Ivy Leaguer.

    Henry had them all fooled, but not Alex.

    Alex could see the thin veneer flipping up like cheap linoleum bubbling in the summer heat.

    Summary

    It's been several weeks since Viktor visited Yuuri in Detroit, and something big is coming.

    Yuuri's due to visit Viktor in his own home, and this time, everything is going to go right. No stressing over (far too many) plans, no worrying about anything outside of his control. Viktor is determined to enjoy the few days he has with his cute boyfriend in the bliss of an easy autumn. Only not everything is quite so easy these days. Like a certain costume that refuses to work out right, a complicated gender experience that continues to escape his tongue, or a brain that refuses to let a painful past go when he desperately wishes to. But hey, what else is new?

    Big things sure are on the horizon. Some of them are good, like Yuuri's fun little cosplay surprise he has in store for them both. And other things... well, sometimes they just need to happen.

    The question is: how ready is Viktor for change?

    [Sequel to "I drove all night to get to you (is that all right?)"]

    Summary

    It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.

    Steve fails. They lose.

    “Steve, how many loops have you been through?”

    His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.

    “I lost count.”

    AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

    Summary

    ["June stopped by at lunch; she showed me a delightful channel called Hallmark, which repeats the same story every hour after they swap one round of white, straight, small-town conventionally beautiful actors for another. It was entertaining.”

    “June and I used to play a drinking game with those. Take a shot every time someone goes ice skating, sledding, or leaves the big city for their tiny hometown.”

    “Good lord, you must’ve been sloshed in the first ten minutes.”]

    ***

    On December 4, 2021, an attempt is made on President Ellen Claremont's life.

    Alex gets shot instead.

    Summary

    It's Potter's fault, of course, that Draco finds himself trapped in the same twenty-four-hour period, repeating itself over and over again. It's been nearly a year since the unpleasant business at Hogwarts, and Draco's getting on with his life quite nicely, thank you, until Harry sodding Potter steps in and ruins it all, just like always. At first, though, the time loop seems liberating. For the first time in his life, he can do anything, say anything, be anything, without consequence. But the more Draco repeats the day, the more he realises the uncomfortable truth: he's falling head over heels for the speccy git. And suddenly, the time loop feels like a trap. For how can he ever get Harry to love him back when time is, quite literally, against him?

    Summary

    “Let’s get this over with.” Steve mutters, setting his shoulders and planting his feet.
    Out of the corner of his eye, Gareth can see that Wayne is watching their standoff with a calculating expression.
    “We’re airing this out and moving on. And we are going to do it before Eddie gets home.” Harrington states with a finality that sets Gareth’s teeth grinding. As if Steve is the one who’s more concerned about their friend’s feelings than Gareth is at this point.

    Or

    Gareth has had just about enough of Steve Harrington in the fall of '86. He sets about to do something about it. It takes an angry mob, a Corroded Coffin gig and a baseball bat full of nails for him to change his mind.

    Gareth gets mad, Eddie gets beat up, Steve gets violent and Wayne is just really tired of everyone's shit.

    The thing was, these popular types, the Royalty of High School Society? They just wanted to be entertained. They wanted something to break though the dull monotony of life at the top of the food chain, and if nothing happened to catch their interest, they made their own fun.
    Good thing Eddie was unparalleled at keeping little sheeps entertained.

    “Hey, Eddie! This here fine connoisseur of music is a huge fan of yours!”

    “Oh really?”

    Eddie couldn’t stop the smirk from spreading across his face as he turned to look Gorgeous right in those warm brown peepers.

    (Fuck.)

    Gareth said something as he left, but Eddie couldn’t tell you what it was. He was too busy watching a soft flush make its way across this man’s attractive face.

    Really highlighted the sexy moles.

    “Um, hi?”

    “Hi.” Eddie smiled widely at the soft manly tone.
    --
    Eddie met the cutest fucking Metal Head at one of his shows but he's a little bit too hung up on Steve Harrington to give him a chance. (Hint: he does not realize the Metal Head is Steve Fucking Harrington.)
