    Summary

    Cordelia Wilde was promised a quiet life in Hawkins all those years ago, and that's what she had received (if you can call being constantly harassed and only having one friend quiet). Unfortunately for her, the disappearance of her best friend's brother and one of her brother's best friends all in one, flipped her life upside down: spending time with the king of Hawkins and his consort, alongside fighting monsters, was not on her 1983 or '84 bingo card, but when life gives you lemons...

    In which Dustin Henderson's older sister falls in love with Steve Harrington

    Summary

    Daisy Paulson is used to being overlooked, and she likes to keep it that way. Her coworker, Clark Kent, makes her feel safe enough to come out of her shell, but things get complicated when Superman starts to pay her nightly visits. Clark grapples with being jealous of himself, while Daisy has to decide if keeping her heart safe from potential harm is worth passing over a relationship that truly makes her happy.

    Reworked and labored over so that it's a lot smoother than its original draft. Playlist can be found here.

    Summary

    Beth is eight years old and watching Scooby-Doo reruns with her little brother when she remembers that she died. Blood and twisted metal swim in her vision as the screen goes to static, and Jonathan’s too busy whining at the screen to notice the way she stops breathing.
    Eventually, she lays down on the brown carpet and goes back to watching cartoons.

    (Jonathan is her little brother, and it’s her job to look after him while Mom watches Will.

    Jonathan is six, and Beth is eight, and Beth is nineteen and dead.

    She figures she can break down later, when he’s not there to see it.)

    Summary

    When a new arrival in Hawkins takes a graveyard-shift at the local radio station, she expects nothing more than late nights, music, and static as she re-adjusts to small town life. Instead, her transmitter begins picking up impossible frequencies—whispers threaded through the noise, fragments of conversations that never happened, and warnings that feel less like broadcasts and more like thoughts. The more she listens and dives deeper into the strange things she's hearing, the more things around her begin to warp. Every signal comes with a cost: as she tunes in, the boundary between her mind and the frequencies blurs… and the Upside Down isn’t the only entity capable of speaking through the static. In a town where even thoughts can echo on the airwaves, she must navigate which signals bear truth and which were designed to deceive her.

    Summary

    It's easy for a Red-Room assassin, super-soldier, and former pararescue airman to disappear, but doing so with a 14-year-old's face on every news station proves to be far more challenging, if not impossible.

    After discovering the young girl's blood is more valuable than anyone expected, they go completely off-grid to evade otherwise certain capture. It's not a way for anyone to live, much less a girl who desperately wants to go back to her previous life.

    And no one wants to tell her that she will never be normal again.
