Summary
“I’m sorry,” he tries to say. The darkness is heavier, now. Oppressive. His body won’t move, his lungs won’t fill, there is blood in his throat and he is dying. He is dying.
I wish I could stop this, he thinks as he fades, as the world around him slips into nothingness and he does, too. I wish I could save you. I wish I had been enough. I wish–
A guitar wails, drums pound, and Eddie is alive.
He jolts upright with a gasp that feels more like a sob, adrenaline thrumming through his veins, heart beating erratically in his ears.
Something is tangled around his ankles, pinning him, trapping him and he kicks desperately, freeing his legs and throwing himself backwards. He hits a wall– he hits a wall, he hits a wall– and squeezes his eyes shut, waiting for teeth and ripping and pain, but–
“Ed!” Wayne calls from…somewhere, voice cutting cleanly through the panic fogging his brain. “Turn that noise down ‘fore you wake up the whole neighborhood!”
*
Or, Eddie dies in 1986.
In 1981, he wakes up. And this time, no one is dying.

Summary
When Max is sent away for a month for advanced out of state hospital treatment, Lucas is left with way too much time and way too many feelings. So when he notices the unresolved tension simmering between Will and Mike, he decides to do something about it. But before he can even process what that truly entails, he’s already knee deep in secrets, feelings, and “friendships” that are a lot more complicated than he signed up for.
OR: What starts as a distraction from missing Max turns into the most complicated plan of Lucas’s life as he shifts from helping Will get over Mike to setting them up together (because he’s the bestest, most supportive friend ever, obviously!)

Summary
Max stares with wide eyes as two boys fall through the door. The shorter one (but barely, maybe no more than an inch shorter) is wearing a varsity jacket and stumbling over his feet as he walks backwards. His arms are looped around the taller boy’s neck, and he’s still laughing. The taller boy wears a vest layered over a leather jacket, has untamed hair, and looks at the shorter boy with eyes that make Max feel like she’s intruding.
Both boys’ clothes are slightly rumpled, and she only now realizes that the taller boy’s hands are resting on the other’s waist. They haven’t seemed to notice Max or El, and the taller boy uses his foot to kick the door shut.
El calmly says, “Steve, we are watching Dracula. Would you and Eddie like to join us?”
Steve and Eddie jerk apart, finally noticing Max and El in the room. They glance at each other, a whole conversation held in that one look. It is, apparently, a conversation that Eddie loses, because he sighs as Steve grins. “How far are you?” Steve asks, kicking off his shoes before collapsing onto the couch.
(A/N: Strongly suggest reading the other two parts first to avoid any confusion.)

Summary
In 1984, Steve Harrington wakes up in the hospital after a car crash he can't remember. Nothing—and everything—has changed.
Preview:
He’s in the Creel house, in the real world, and he hasn’t moved an inch. Eddie is still beside him, and the bulb above them is burning white hot, pulsing even faster than before. Steve can still feel that other-worldly warmth across his back but there’s something else, something like a cold fist plunged into his chest, and the echo of deja vu swims through his head. He needs to leave. He needs to leave now—he didn’t see it in his mind for no reason.- Language:

Summary
A dying engineer. A grieving cowboy. A trail stitched with dust, loss, and the kind of silence that lingers in your bones.
Viktor's chasing a cure in Piltover. Jayce is holding together a wagon train built on borrowed hope.
But the trail has a way of hollowing men out–and sometimes, it's not what you lose that breaks you. It's what you start to want.- Language:
