    Summary

    NOVEMBER 6TH, 1986

    In the three years since Will Byers went missing, the town of Hawkins has been under constant threat of the creatures from the Upside Down. But now, eight months after Vecna has ruptured a giant rift through the town of Hawkins, that threat is about to reemerge. Unaware of Vecna's true plans and trapped under a military quarantine, our heroes will not only be forced to face the greatest evil from the Upside Down, but also overcome impossible odds, in order to save the world, and each other, one last time.

    Written in a SCREENPLAY format, this fic operates as a diverging conclusion for the final season of Stranger Things.

    Summary

    “Wait, wait,” Lance stood up. “You are driving to Houston.”
    “Yes.”
    “A drive that’s over thirty hours.”
    “Yup.”
    “By yourself.”
    “Sure seems like it.”
    “To clean out a storage container of your dead mother, that you have never met, that is now legally under your name.”
    “Correct.”
    Lance wondered if Keith had lost his mind.
    “Keith, there could be dead bodies in that storage container!” He argued. “Or a meth lab. Or worse, mannequins dressed up like dolls sat at a tea party or some weird shit like that.”
    Keith offered him an unimpressed blink. “I’ll be fine.”
    “Keith, this is insane. You can’t go by yourself!”
    Keith glanced at him as he shouldered his backpack.
    “Come with me then.”
    And that small, damned smirk tilted Keith’s lips as he held Lance’s gaze.
    “What do you think, Lance?” He asked. “2,251 miles. Think you could handle it?”
    Lance stopped short.
    Contemplated.
    And, well. Lance had nothing to do either.
    So. That’s how this all started.

    Two disasters drive cross-country to clean out a storage container that may have dead bodies hidden inside and, hey, maybe a bit of love as well.

    Summary

    “My Abuela said it,” Silvio insists. “She said you have to wear the hat, because you have a pale ass so you’re going to get skin cancer and die before Lance even wakes up.”

    Keith looks between the children and the hat, too confused to glare, sweaty and horrid from pulling weeds beneath the scorching sun. “What?”

    “That’s wrong,” Nadia complains, and yanks her brother down to her level to whisper the correction in his ear.

    “Ooh,” Silvio amends. “Tía Veronica said you have a pale ass. My Abuela said you’re gonna die.”

    OR

    When Lance is fatally wounded during their final battle, the blue lion enters a deep hibernation with Lance inside. Unsure when or if he’ll wake, Keith is forced to wait and watch over him in the company of the people he fears most: Lance’s family.

    Summary

    Kel has always felt some sort of inexplicable pull towards the vast, unknowable depths that lie beyond his town’s tranquil lagoon; bound by tradition and the constraints of long-taught turmoil, he was never able to explore these desires. However, his world is turned upside down the moment he encounters Sunny, an alluring figure who represents everything his community has taught him to reject. Along the course of a few months, Kel finds himself drawn into a nuanced romance that challenges the very foundations of his existence. With endless nights spent slipping off to the shore, the lines of his fantasies begin to entangle with his perceived truth back home with his drifting family. Humid evenings, strained brotherhood, untold secrets, and horrible, horrible timing.

    “Sorry, I… uh…” Kel swallowed thickly. “...Am I gonna see you again?”

    His eyes were pleading even without the light of the sunset to emphasize his distress. It was as if everything fell silent, all cues of the outdoors gone quiet all at once. The crickets had hushed. The wind was gone. Even the swashing of the bay, the sway of the grass, the calls and squacks of the gulls– absent.

    “Do you want to?”
