Summary
“It never fails to confound me,” Wrathion says, bending the blossom toward the sun and back again, “how something so wrought with the power of symbolism can be so easily crushed.” He closes his hand around the flower, caging it against the soft leather palm of his clawed gauntlet, and flashes a fanged smile. “Don’t you think?”
“You used to be subtle,” Anduin mutters. “How did you find me?”
...
In the days following his time in the Maw, Anduin seeks respite at the Temple of the White Tiger, wishful that no one will come to find him. Wrathion has, of course, always done precisely the opposite of what Anduin wishes, and he is not so content to allow his once-prince to surrender himself to melancholy.

Summary
“What?! That doesn’t sound like a job at all!” Tome protests, and Reigen can practically see her train of thought heading straight for the edge of a cliff. “Wait, so… Does that mean you guys are—”
“We’re going on business!” he interrupts uncouthly, but it’s out of necessity. “Strictly business!”
She gives him a pitiful grimace, and God, if that isn’t the worst look a teenage girl could give you. “To your sister’s wedding?”

The Blizzard of Piffling Vale by SupposedToBeWriting
Fandoms: Wooden Overcoats (Podcast)
23 Sep 2020

Summary
A once-in-a-millennium snowstorm hits Piffling Vale, trapping local undertakers Eric Chapman and Rudyard Funn (and bestselling author Madeline the Mouse) alone in a local café. It's Rudyard's worst nightmare come true, particularly because sustaining irrational rage for Chapman for that long can't be good for his health. They must cooperate and compromise in order to survive the night - without creating a need for a funeral in the morning.

Summary
It’s 1991 and Steve is still in Hawkins, still living with his mother, still single, and still working at Family Video. At least he’s the manager now, for whatever that’s worth. But he’s stuck here while Robin and Dustin and everyone else have moved away. Moved on.
Well, everyone except for Eddie.
They're best friends, spend most of their time together, and it's nice to have a friend like that. But Steve is still looking for love with a capital "L". At least, he thinks he is.

Summary
“I know we don’t– know each other that well. Like, at all. But I remembered that night in January and how– how you tried to help, when I needed it, and didn’t really want it. And I’m not letting anyone read their letters unless it happens, but yours isn’t– I don’t know. It just says thank you. For trying. And for getting it, when no one else did."
(or, turns out eddie's backstory is pretty similar to max's own. he offers her an understanding ear; when vecna comes, she and steve might need to return the favor.)

Summary
“Greetings and salutations to you, Harrington!”
And there he was. Just as in your face and over the top as ever.
Only he looked… different. He looked like fucking Bon Jovi. Jeans so ripped they may as well just be shorts and a crop top and hair pulled back into a bun with loose bits falling around his face. In some weird way, the jeans almost seemed more revealing than shorts. They weren’t, of course, Steve couldn’t see the backs of Eddie’s legs or his left knee or either calf, but there was so much open ripping around his thighs that almost seemed more… teasing.
“Holy shit, I can see your whole face.” Steve mumbled out, lips parted in genuine surprise, instantly reaching out to try to touch the bun at the crown of his head.
Eddie batted him away.
OR
Steve agrees to help Eddie paint his trailer, but isn't prepared for the bisexual crisis it sends him spiralling into.

Summary
“Well, I didn’t think you were a good dude until about two days ago.” Eddie’s still watching Steve, studying the flutter of his eyelashes, the casual way his head turns. Noting the intensity in Steve’s eyes as they lock with Eddie’s.
“And now?”
“And now you’re lying in my bed listening to me spill my deepest, darkest secrets,” Eddie finishes.***
Steve's wounds are infected. Eddie's the only one who knows how to heal him. Add into the equation a bottle of strong vodka, subtract Steve's shirt, and Eddie's lips get a bit too loose for his own liking. (Or, Eddie gets a tragic backstory and flirts with Steve. Steve flirts back.)

“Seriously, though, you should check it out,” Eddie says, randomly speaking up as Steve quietly processes the rental. “The movie, I mean.”
Steve glances at him, giving him a measured look. “Looks like someone just checked out our only copy. Darn.”
It's said with as little emotion as Steve can muster, but Eddie laughs anyway, his head tipping back enough that Steve's eyes can trace the long lines of his throat.
Unintentional. Completely unintentional.

Summary
-- Season Four Spoilers --
“I need air,” Robin announces. “Yeah, I’ve just been inhaling your guys’ chip breaths and Steve’s hair spray and I need to like breathe normal, human air,”
“We’ll find some headphones,” Dustin says helpfully as Steve takes Robin by the hand and leads her up the stairs. She hadn’t expected “going to get air” as a group activity, but now, Steve and her are making a swift exit and Nancy is just staring at the two, mouth gaped slightly, eyes big and wide.
Robin forces herself to look away, to look forward, and allow herself to be led out and ignore the swirling in her chest.
OR: Robin Buckley is experiencing hallucinations from Vecna. Guess, there's no perfect time to come out to the girl of your dreams, Nancy, and have a heart to heart with your best friend, Steve.

Summary
“Holy shit, Wheeler, I thought we lost you.” She breathes into Nancy’s hair, still crying a little. Nancy pulls her face away from Robin’s chest, tugging the headphones off as she glances up at Robin with watery eyes.
Between the mind-numbing relief, the lingering panic and the feeling of wild joy, something else sparks in Robin’s gut as Nancy stares at her. It’s familiar, achingly so, from years of wanting and not having, and it flares to life with a previously unknown intensity as Nancy keeps looking at her. Because Nancy Wheeler, even dirty and tear-streaked and shaking, is still the most beautiful creature Robin’s ever seen.
