    Summary

    "He washes his wounds off, sparingly, with water this time. He figures it’s probably time to do so. Maybe he’ll be okay.

    He falls asleep in the bathtub with a chair wedged against the bathroom door to keep it from opening.

    He dreams he’s hanging on in the back of the RV they stole, and Steve Harrington is yelling at him.

    “Hang on!” he’s saying, “Hang on!”"

    ——————————

    Eddie Munson is stuck in the Upside Down. Barely alive.
    Steve Harrington is trying to sleep and failing at it, miserably.
    What a strange thing it is, to save the world alongside friends
    and come away from it with nightmares and loneliness.

    title from 'Boy Like Me' by Barns Courtney
    alternatively titled: "a crowd of about five drunks"

    Summary

    "Eddie's bright and bold and smart and struggling and too much for most people in Hawkins. Eddie doesn't fit in with the rest of Hawkins because he's not from there and he likes different music and different games and intentionally put that bandana in his back pocket."

    Summary

    “So, I’ve found God,” Eddie announced. It was more than a little inaccurate, but he didn’t know how else to bring up the subject.

    “Oh yeah,” Jonathan prompted. “Where?”

    Eddie chuckled. “Nah, man, I mean. I want to be more, like, observant, maybe,” he hedged.

    Jonathan raised his eyebrows, playful rather than mocking. “Look at you, ba’al teshuva.”
