Summary
There’s this dumb little joke that's making the rounds in your “Mommy and Me” baby swim group.
That the most dangerous part about Saturday beginner classes isn’t the water.
It’s the instructor.
𓇼
Your baby’s in love with her boyish, ridiculously charming swim instructor.
And apparently, so are you.

Summary
All you have are fragments. Dustin Henderson’s explanation outside of Starcourt had been rushed and breathless, a mess of words that mostly made no sense to you—Russians, secret codes, an underground government lab.
Torture.
It hadn’t sounded real then.
It does now.
The evidence is sitting right in front of you, breathing unevenly on your couch.
Your gaze drops back to his wrists.
“Hey, Stevie?” you ask, voice thin. “Do you know where you are?”

Summary
The last person Steve Harrington expects to encounter in a Chicago ER is someone from Hawkins. The last person Robin Buckley expects to be helping her out with a sprained wrist and a black eye is Steve Harrington. And then again when she takes a nasty fall. And then again- okay, she's becoming a frequent flyer. Neither one of them anticipates the blooming friendship, but Robin is delighted by the gossip she missed in their shared hometown. Steve enjoys the company of someone who isn't reminding him of his trauma, new or old.
Aka four times Steve and Robin encounter each other in a Chicago ER and one time they hang out somewhere else.
Strictly speaking, knowledge of ER is NOT required to understand this fic (but it will make it extra fun)

Summary
Years ago, Steve Harrington joked about wanting an RV, a big family, and six little nuggets.
Somehow, he got exactly that.
Now thirty-three, Steve is raising six wonderfully chaotic kids with the help of his found family. Between backyard barbecues, pancake disasters, and Uncle Dustin's questionable inventions, life is loud, messy, and everything Steve ever dreamed of.
Or: Steve gets the happy ending he always deserved.

Summary
In which Robin has PMDD and doesn't know it, Steve is her friend anyway.
Robin is starting to think she’s going insane. Or maybe something is wrong. She tries to tell herself that she sees Will enough that he would’ve sensed it on her, smelt the rot on her skin. But maybe it’s a different kind of wrong, maybe whatever the Russians did to them down below the earth—but then Steve is okay, she tells herself, Steve isn’t going crazy. And, maybe stupidly, that’s when she gets really scared. Because if it isn’t monsters, if it isn’t something Steve can hit with a bat, that Eleven can crush with her mind, that her friends can’t solve with their smart little brains and their stupid bravery… if it isn’t that…

Summary
They survived the Upside Down. They might not survive the drive.
When a postcard from New Mexico suggests Eleven is alive, the Party embarks on a rescue mission across the American heartland. Piloting the journey are Steve Harrington and Nancy Wheeler, exes who have spent two years pretending they’ve moved on, and a lifetime proving they can't.
As they trade Hawkins for the dangers of the open road, the 'Protector' and the 'Marksman' are forced to confront the one thing scarier than the desert: each other.
Some people are worth the thousand-mile journey. Some loves are worth the U-turn.
(Post-S5 Stranger Things series finale. Stancy-centric AU.)

Summary
Robin Buckley has always believed in two things: love and timing.
With Olivia, she thought she got both right.
From late-night study sessions to building a life together far from home, everything between them felt easy, inevitable even.

But life doesn’t wait.
And sometimes, the smallest moments are the ones that change everything.
Now, caught between past and present, Robin is left holding onto the only thing she’s ever been sure of: Olivia.

Summary
“Sorry,” Robin says like it’s the first thing that pops into her mind. “For looking through your stuff. And the jokes. I mean, I didn’t know before and you never seemed like you were uncomfortable with anything I said, which isn’t really an excuse, but I just wanted to put it out there that I didn’t, like, figure it out and then turned around to act like an asshole about it. A lot of guys wouldn’t stick around if they were in your shoes, but it’s cool, you know, that you’re there for him. And the other kids, too, I guess.” She blows a stray hair from her face, offering a stilted wave of her hand. “So, I’m sorry.”
“Robin,” he starts, trying to catch up to a conversation that decided to pull a complete U-turn and leave him a dumbstruck mess in navy, knee-length shorts and a nearly wrinkle free sailor’s uniform. “I-“
And, really, he should have known this would be the exact moment the sirens start wailing.

Summary
Steve Harrington learned how to survive. He never learned how to be loved.
After everything Hawkins put him through, Steve settles into a quieter life teaching middle school, coaching baseball, and pretends the past stayed buried when the gates finally closed for good. The town knows about the earthquakes and blackouts but they don't know what it cost him.
Claire Bennett always noticed the things other people missed. The kid who never talked, the one who flinched at sudden noises, and the ones who learned how to disappear in plain sight. Which is why she noticed Steve. She remembers the boy Steve used to be. Or at least, the boy everyone thought he was. Popular. Untouchable. Safe. What she finds instead is a man who startles too easily, avoids silence, and carries a loneliness that feels familiar.
They went to school together their whole lives but they may as well have been in completely different worlds. Now they share hallways, late afternoons, and a growing awareness that some parts of him never made it out of the darkness that still haunts him.
This is a story about how sometimes healing begins with someone simply choosing to stay.

Summary
“She’s not cool. She’s condescending.”
“Mmhmm.”
“She looks at me like I’m an idiot.”
“Wow. New experience for you.”
“And she talks like she’s already five steps ahead of everyone else.”
Robin hummed thoughtfully. “You know, that’s exactly how I felt about you when we first met.”Julia, the new art teacher at Hawkins Middle, is sharp, unreadable, and clearly hiding something. When a student starts acting strangely, Steve finds himself forced into a reluctant investigation with the one person he can’t stand—and can’t quite look away from.
OR: a post-canon, post-epilogue fic where Steve Harrington stays in Hawkins as a middle school coach and reluctantly teams up with the new art teacher to untangle a mystery.
Slow burn. Enemies to allies. And a love story about confronting the parts of yourself you’d rather keep buried.Bookmarked by angelic_jay

Nothing seemed to be working.
After all of their months of slinging ice-cream together, of draping themselves lazily across the Family video counters, waiting, talking about whatever, laughing, teasing, everything that had filled the nicest couple of months of her life so far…
Robin had not a single clue what Steve’s favorite song could be.

Steve gets Vecna'd, Robin panics, they're both not really okay afterwards, but at least they can sit on a bathroom floor together and work through some stuff.
