    Summary

    Spock’s console erupted in sparks. He was thrown sideways, skull colliding hard against steel. Pain exploded, sharp and dizzying. His vision blurred, dark edged.

    The last thing he saw was Jim, leaning over him, eyes wide with terror, hands pressing against his temple, voice breaking on Spock’s name.

    Then the light swallowed everything.

    Spock opened his eyes.

    He was seated at the breakfast table. His tea was untouched, steam curling upward in quiet spirals. Across from him, Jim Kirk slid into the chair with toast and coffee. He leaned on his elbows, grinning with that patented boyish charm of his, as though nothing had happened.

    “Morning, Spock,” Jim said. “You look positively radiant today.”

     

    Spock sat frozen at the breakfast table. The words struck him like a blow to the head.
    His Vulcan memory admitted no error. He had experienced this before. He had died.

     

    Yet here he was.

    Summary

    "Will," Henry sighs, "I helped destroy the neural lattice of an entire dimension. I’m not solving for X."

    "Wow. So you can annihilate timelines, but Algebra II’s where you draw the line?"

    "Frankly, it’s beneath me."

    "Yeah? You say that, but I bet you don’t even know what a logarithm is."

    Henry’s quiet for a beat. And then—
    "…What is a logarithm?"

    Will laughs under his breath before he can stop it. The kid next to him gives him a weird look. Will pretends to cough and returns to staring at the graph paper like it personally offended him.

    Summary

    Mike now stood in the center of a concrete courtyard, deep within the military base.
    His breath was heavy, his heart pounding like a war drum, and his eyes wide as they tried to grasp the chaos unfolding around him.

    Surrounding him — soldiers.

    Rigid.

    Emotionless.

    Prepared.

    In their hands — cold weapons, barrels aimed with terrifying precision.

    There was only one target. One clear objective: Will Byers.

    Mike could honestly not bring himself care.

    He’d take all of it—the fear, the risk, the blood on his hands—if it meant Will didn’t have to stand there, alone, with ten rifles aimed at his chest.

    Summary

    “How’s school going?” Joyce asks.
    “Good. It’s…going good,” Mike replies. She nods and sips her hot chocolate.
    “Mrs. Byers.” She looks up at him and Mike feels his heart beat faster. “Why did you make three hot chocolates?”
    She takes her time to answer. “I don’t know,” she replies after a while. “It felt like the right thing to do today.”
    Today. Today’s weird, Mike thinks.
    “It’s March 22nd today.”
    “I know.”

    Summary

    She says there is nothing in there: only a complete emptiness, with no Will, no voices, no sight; nothing. One erased everything he could, leaving Will's mind with absolutely nothing.

    Well, Mike isn't having it. He is a stubborn bastard, and he never gives up, especially when it comes to Will. Time and time again, he has stuck by his loyalties: when everyone thought Will was dead, he kept looking; when Will began having his episodes, Mike was there to comfort him; when Will became possessed, Mike stayed and pulled him back to them. Yes, 1985 and 1986 were years where he was a shitty friend and left ignored Will because of his own stupidity, but he wants to fix his mistakes. Perhaps he can start like this.

    Or

    After the last battle against One, Will is left with no memories and no emotions, leaving it up to his friends and family to bring him back. Mike takes it upon himself to be the one who does it as he struggles with Will's last words to him.

    Summary

    However, he let Mike indulge in the thought, never protesting when he shyly asked Will to join him in his bed before they returned to sleep. Lying in the thick bedding on the too-cramped mattress, he did not lean away from Mike’s touch as the boy anxiously wrapped an arm around his waist, pressing them close together.

    He let Mike breathe down his neck, let Mike have him, and in that alone sealed his fate.

    or

    Mike truly believes that he can save Will; Will truly believes that he is beyond saving.

    Summary

    That was the shape of his love: quiet, unnoticed, and expendable.

     

    But this? Mike’s grip told a different story. This was not expendable.

     

     

    Will’s spent years believing he was the one who’d slip through the cracks — the one no one would notice until he was gone. But when he nearly falls apart, it’s Mike who holds on like letting go might end the world.

    Summary

    He stepped closer, standing by Elrond’s side, dragging an arm across his shoulders and bending down to his ear, close enough to whisper.
    “Little songbird, did you really think that I would not know what you did, that I would not have means to find out about your disloyalty?”

     

    During the negotiation for the ring, Adar reveals that he has discovered a certain secret regarding Elrond’s upbringing, one that was too dangerous for Elrond to reveal, not even to his closest friends. How will Elrond cope in this situation? Will he give the ring up, or refuse, even if it means facing Adar’s wrath on the battlefield?

    “Where did we first meet?”
    “The seaside, when I was first orphaned. I was alone—a young Half-Elven boy without friend or kin. You gave me water.”

    Elrond and Galadriel's first meeting as described in "Alloyed," built out with elements from The Silmarillion. In search of a stolen treasure, Galadriel instead finds a traumatized child.

    "The stars were fading. But peering over the rocks at the cave’s mouth, Elrond could see the horizon still lit by the eerie green glow of the sunken Silmaril, its radiance filtering up from the deep."

    "I thought that, of all people, you must understand? Have you not lost every home you had?" How did he not notice that bruise on his cheek before? His hair charred, hands bruised? "I put it into your hands because I thought you'd have to understand. That you would have to see"

    "I… My lord, what…" Of course he understands. Who else would understand the lack of a home, the absence of a safe space, as much as him?

    "Haven't you seen?" he asks again, "Then why, why were you so incredibly reckless with it? And with my life?"

    There were too many orcs between himself and Adar. He was alone on the field. The city was already fallen.

    And Elrond was still screaming.

    He held out his spear and met Adar’s eyes. Then he plunged it into the mud and released it.

    Summary

    Adar released his throat and dropped him. He fell hard on the ground. Exhaling sharply, Elrond moved to get on all fours so he could stand up again, but he coughed, gasping for breath, his lungs and ribs burning him asunder. Adar wasted no time and pushed Elrond onto his back, sinking him into the putrescent earth.

    "Where is the ring? I know you have it," Adar said, the threat overwhelming in his tone, startling Elrond whose wide eyes locked with Adar's furious ones.

    So, he could not see it, could he, the chain glittering around his neck?

    Or, wherein Gil-galad has a very bad day (and night). And Elrond won't stop sulking.
