Summary
the old wolf of a thought prowls by—i wish i could take you away from all of this—claws clicking on the ground, because it was always what this… this shit did to her, but that’s where it always went wrong, wasn’t it? he knows it wasn’t as simple as leaving, as running away, as pretending like it didn’t exist, but surely giving so much of yourself couldn’t be right either.
or: crawling forward, in real time.

Summary
and nancy always wants to scream, especially on those mornings, scream but the suburbs will swallow their sound just like it does everything else—failing marriages and broken bicycles and poorly kept secrets and government conspiracies—and why bother anyway, it’s not like anyone would understand her, would know this pain, would know what it was like to be only feet away when—
or: nancy struggles quietly. steve misses none of it.

Summary
"getting ourselves into all these messes," steve eventually says, rubbing at his arm. "what if the circumstances were, like, not the brink of dying? what if we were just normal teenagers?”
nancy laughs and lays her head on his shoulder, the sunlight dancing patterns through the leaves. she knows he’s talking about their friends, about hawkins, but it’s nice to pretend like he’s referring only to the two of them.
"then it wouldn't be us."
or: what chapters 11-12 of who else decodes you? was originally gonna be. kinda funky, kinda fun. always stancy <3
