Summary
In Bianca’s defence, she had been aiming for their cheek. At least, that’s what she would tell herself over the coming months. But Vic startled at Bianca’s hand on their face and turned just a little too far, and their mouth was half-open in the middle of some word Bianca didn’t catch, and she ended up planting a tiny closed-mouth peck on their bottom lip.
At a New Year's party, Bianca makes a mistake.

Summary
Robin Buckley wanted nothing more than to keep her girlfriend out of harm's way. Away from the Upside Down, and Vecna, and all the dangerous shit happening in Hawkins that could kill Robin.
But when Lucas receives a warning about an attack on Hawkins General Hospital, Robin knows that Vickie won't be away from it for much longer. So instead, she has to focus on keeping her alive.
-------------
My theory on what could happen in the hospital scene!! Rockie-centric, because there isn't nearly enough sapphic fics and I'm sick of everyone sidelining these two, but Lumax is also big. And other character dynamics cameo

Summary
When Vickie befriends Robin Buckley, she's not expecting Steve Harrington. She knew who he was, of course, anyone with a pulse who attended Hawkin's High in the past four years knows who Harrington is. Vickie has been in and out of Family Video more times than reasonable the three months leading up to the earthquake, so she's aware that they're coworkers, aware that they get along, unlikely duo that they may be, but she's not expecting... this.
OR
Almost 2000 words of Vickie slowly getting drawn into the stobin orbit over the course of 18 months

Summary
"You are not well, Robin. And you need help."
Two years ago, for four months straight, Robin had waited for her parents to fall asleep every night, and snuck out the window, biking on shaking legs to Steve Harrington’s house because he was the only person who made her feel like the world was whole again. Like the Russians were really, truly gone, not hiding in the shadows to drag her into some dark room and throw punches until she didn’t recognize her own reflection. And somehow still, even with the end of the world literally barreling towards them all, she still was the most worried about losing Vickie. The only girl who had ever cared about Robin as much as Robin cared for her.
"So, what?” Robin cracked a shaky smile. “You want me to talk to some shrink?"
OR:
In the back of the truck on the way to the Mac-Z, Robin wonders if Vickie's advice to her in the hospital wasn't all wrong.

Summary
“Morgana’s sweet laugh filled your giddy mind, dripping like honey down your fingers. You wondered if that was how she would taste; soft, dizzying, perfect.“
Reader arrives in Camelot assuming the title of Lord Noran in order to participate in the tournament and publicly humiliate the Prince (because why not? It‘ll give Merlin more to tease Arthur about). What she didn‘t expect, however, was to receive the favour of the King‘s ward herself.

“Turn around.”
They do, agonizingly slow. In the low light, their back is a mess of mangled flesh, open wound still seeping blood. She can see the dark outline of something moving beneath their skin, its edges pinned in place by the band of their bra.
Or: there's a wing growing from Vic's back. Bianca helps them get it out.

Summary
"And what does Bianca do, anyways? Hold their leash, choke them by the collar? Jesus christ, Jocasta, learn a gentle touch. There’s still a scar, actually, on her collarbone, puncture mark. Barely noticeable unless you’re looking. You have to train it out, that habit to bite. Vic never loved anything they didn’t want to sink their teeth into."
or
Vic, Bianca, and a death.

Summary
Kate Lockwood is a force to be reckoned with, and your job lets you watch her tell the board to sod off in corporate language all from the purview of her airtight schedules, precision logistics, and meticulously color-coded item lists.
There’s probably nothing wrong with finding your (very married) boss smoking hot. The only crime is when she’s commanding a room with an unbelievably lethal shoulder line that could assassinate those rich douchebags and aristobrats. After all, you’re doing your job as the perfect executive assistant to the most powerful woman in America, keeping her three steps ahead of the world. You follow every command to the letter, micromanaging the Lockwood dynasty just enough to keep it from imploding.
Even if that means, of course, clearing her calendar to quietly bury a secret or two, especially when the past starts clawing its way into the present like it’s trying to climb the corporate ladder.
You'll do anything to keep her enemies guessing and her sins buried deeper than her PR team and crisis manager would ever admit.

Summary
Across the street, Ellie can hear the cries of a baby. She hates the sound, hates the anxiety that spikes up in her without consent and the simultaneous desire to make it stop and hating that she knows there’s already somebody over there doing exactly that. She hates herself for hating it.
Because it’s not like Ellie hates Leo. He’s a fucking baby. He’s got light brown skin and these dark curls of hair and no teeth and way too much drool. He has grabby little fists and a head he’s only just learned to hold up and spit bubbles that he blows when he gets real excited over pretty much nothing. He’s happy. Just, naturally. Like he came out smiling, doesn’t have a clue yet what the fuck is wrong with the world.

or: Tommy and Maria have a baby. Ellie has to figure out how to deal with it.

Summary
If she’s being honest with herself, the real problem is that every time she looks at those pink stripes, she’s back to that night in December, Joel’s sharp words ringing in her ears, sure as hell ain’t your dad, come dawn we’re going our separate ways, sitting on that window seat with her knees hugged to her chest for hours afterwards, staring at the wallpaper and waiting and waiting and waiting for him to come back and tell her that he changed his mind, that he’s not leaving her.
She knows how the story ends, she knows that even though he never apologized, he did wait for her, he didn’t leave her, but those stupid pink walls keep reminding her that everyone leaves her eventually.

When emergency home repairs kick Ellie and Joel out of their house in Jackson, they temporarily move in with Tommy and Maria. One could say it's a full house. (Featuring Miller Family Bonding and Ellie's abandonment issues and a nonzero amount of Lord of the Rings references.)

Summary
Maria is standing beside a large row of diaper boxes. Well, standing might be the wrong word. She looks…hunched. One hand is wrapped around her swollen middle, the other is bracing her body upright. Her face is scrunched up like she’s in pain, and Ellie knows exactly what that fucking means this late in a pregnancy.
“Dude,” she says.
Maria startles, gasping a little and turning to look at Ellie with surprise.
“Sorry,” Ellie grimaces. “Are you-”
“Yes,” Maria breathes, voice strained. “I’m in labor, Ellie. Have been for most of the day.”(a pregnant maria gets stranded in the supply warehouse during a storm. joel and ellie are tasked with the impossible- delivering her baby)

Summary
Joel had sighed then, the realization hitting him slowly and settling in his gut. On the road, he and Ellie hadn’t exactly stopped to observe major holidays, the passage of time marked only by changes in the weather. Celebrations had stopped long before he’d made it to Boston, and he doubted that the FEDRA schools would make any efforts to acknowledge something as frivolous as Christmas or Easter.
He’d felt guilty then, and a little sad. He’d never asked Ellie about her parents.
Or, Ellie's first May in Jackson does not go well. She's not the only one struggling.

Summary
Ellie stared blankly at the collection of stolen food under her bed, and wondered what the fuck was wrong with her.
If she had been caught, what then? Food theft was a serious offense in the QZ, where rationing was constant. It was probably the same in Jackson. What if she ended up hanging over a stupid can of beans?

Summary
“I ain’t opposed to going," Joel says, "I’m just not sure what I’d do with Ellie. I don’t want to leave her home alone, and I sure as hell ain’t gonna leave her with a stranger.”
More pouring, followed by the sound of a glass being carefully set down. “I think I’d be comfortable leaving some 15-year-olds home alone for a week.”
“What about Ellie specifically?”
“Hell no,” Tommy laughs, “I have a feeling she’d burn down the house on purpose.”
When Joel and Tommy both leave for a week long trip, Ellie finds herself being watched by Maria, much to her annoyance.

Summary
Now that Ellie’s alone, she just sits on her bed and looks at her book. She can’t call it reading anymore – by now she has read the thing front to back so many times that she could quote some paragraphs word for word.
That’s why it’s weird that it took her so long to notice the message written on the front page.
There, nestled just below the title, there’s one line of writing addressed to her. It doesn’t mention any names, but it is for her. It can’t be otherwise.
It’s not Tommy’s handwriting, nor Maria's, nor Riley's.But it’s somebody’s. Somebody who knew she’d like to read about Moon landing, spaceships, and astronauts. Somebody who cared enough to take this book, fix the hardcover with some scotch tape, and give it to her. Somebody who wrote those words on the front page knowing that they would make her smile.
Somebody who loved her.
It’s late spring 2024 when Ellie wakes up in Jackson. She has a backpack full of books, a burn on her arm, and no memory of how she went from Boston QZ to Wyoming.

"If I find out you've not been relaxing," she'd said, "there will be serious consequences." She'd been joking, probably. It hadn't meant anything, probably.
Dani hasn't been able to shake the memory all afternoon.
