    Summary

    steve harrington's parents come home and he sends robin away.

    -

    “Robs.” Steve sighed, hand wiping harshly at the few tears that had slipped. “Just, please cover for me.” He hated asking that of her. Asking her to lie for him. Robin hated that she’d do it.

    That she’d lie and cover and bend over backwards to keep Steve’s home life a secret if that was what he wanted. Even if it made her skin crawl because they’d be getting away with it.

    “We can both go out of the window- they won’t even know we were here.” She tried anyway, knowing it was a lost cause when Steve ran his hands through his hair and pulled a little too much. Her hands flailed as she climbed off the bed and moved into Steve’s space, always disregarding personal boundaries. “We can both go to work and then hide out at mine- or we can screw Keith and just go home. Okay? They’ll never look for you there because why would you be hiding at a band geek’s, right? And all we do is just wait them out and it’ll be fine- you'll be fine and safe-”

    Steve looked like he wanted to cry the more she talked.

    Summary

    “I need to tell you something,” she says, sounding as if she’d rehearsed that one sentence the whole way here.

    Steve almost slams the door in her fucking face. They haven’t spoken since that night when Eleven returned. It was pretty much a given that their relationship was no more.

    “Come in,” he says.

    Summary

    “The Witcher believes you’re under a spell,” Yennefer said, conversationally, drawing a sip from her tea.

    “I most certainly am,” said Jaskier to her in a warm drawl that Geralt recognized as the tone of voice he slipped into when flirting and frankly, things needed to start making more sense and fast before he gave into his impulse to do something rash and wholly unhelpful. Namely, chuck himself out the cottage window and into the sea.

    --

    Or Geralt seeks out Yennefer only to find her, of all unbelievable and ridiculous things, shacking up with his bard.

    Summary

    For a moment he’s tempted to spill - to tell Hopper that tonight he dreamt about those fucking tunnels, and that the Demodogs that ran past him in reality barelled straight into him in his dreams, and they leapt on to Dustin first and tore into his guts whilst the kids screamed and wailed above him whilst another Demodog charged headlong towards him—

    “I’m fine, Chief,” Steve says. In the reflection of the window, he can see Hopper has finally taken off his hat. “You know I’m fine, really.”


    Hawkins, Indiana. It's 1985, and it's been four months since they saved the world. But it wasn't enough... closing the Gate wasn't enough. Something's breaching through. Something is fighting to be let loose, and Hawkins - or, more specifically, Steve Harrington - is in some deep shit.

    As if he wasn't in enough already.

    Basically: How Steve becomes a member of the Party, and how he learns to forgive himself.

    Summary

    The words "Steve Harrington is sooo strong" had always made Robin Buckley roll her eyes. After all, what did it matter if some stupid jock just so happened to use his muscles a bit more than other people? But when her life comes crashing down inside a secret underground Russian elevator, Robin finds a new appreciation for the strengths of Steve Harrington... at least until she has a startling realization about her best friend and his fleeting mortality as the Party patches up his demo-bat bites.

    Post-Season 4, Episode 7: The Massacre At Hawkins Lab, but before volume 2.
