    Summary

    Slow-Burn, canon-compliant and set after season 4. Will Byers & Byler centric. If you like lots of feels and pining, a nice dose of spooky beasties, some silly character moments and seeing our boy Will kicking ass, taking names and coming of age, you're in the right place.

    Premise:
    It's two weeks after the fall of Hawkins and the Party are trying to figure out how to move on, find Max and stop Vecna.

    Will's heart is still breaking over Mike and El, but when those emotions awaken something decidedly more otherworldly and powerful he, and a strange new friend, have to confront what really happened in Hawkins on November 6th 1983 and what side Will himself is really on.

    A fever-dream, mucho-feels, super long, semi-fix-it, version of Season 5.

    Summary

    Will raised an eyebrow at his friend's antics, then dropped his eyes to where he knew Dustin had reached a hand out towards him.

    “This summer, we stick together. You and me, Byers.”

    Will grinned, taking Dustin’s hand and shaking it. “You and me, Henderson.”

    A rewrite of S3:

    The night Dustin gets back from Camp Knowhere, he brings the Party up to the highest point in Hawkins to set up Cerebro. He thought that his friends would be excited to have him back-- even if it wasn't the most entertaining to sit on a hill and talk into a radio with no response, he thought they would at least wait for him before going home. He thought it was going to be the best summer ever.

    Instead, he finds himself and the one friend that didn't leave him, Will Byers, intercepting a weird Russian transmission.

    And, well... if he couldn't have the best summer ever, at least he and Will would have an eventful one.

    Summary

    Silence. Cicadas chirping. Mosquitos buzzing. Nat’s dark, choppy hair is framed by the porchlight, like a halo; the red smear across her lips reminds her of a vampire, and in a way, she is. Sucking the secrets out from Shauna like a leech, but Shauna doesn’t mind all that much. Nat’s easy to talk to, easier when they’re both drunk and pissed and wanting. Easy to kiss, too.

     

    or, end of junior year. shauna's not having a very good time at lottie's party. luckily, nat has her back.

    Summary

    Will swallows down his fear and stares at the door unblinkingly. Kill the monster. Take the risk. Cast fireball. Shoot the gun.

    Of course, he hadn’t expected it to come from behind him.

    The light burns bright into his retinas. The whole room shakes, wood paneling nearly busting at the seams.

    A rolled seven. An unrewarded risk.

    The beast’s got him.

    Summary

    Blisters have begun to form on my hand from gripping the bag's strap too tightly. The sign is in gold, just four steps in front of me. The hard part should be over- leaving my father, taking the bus, finding my way here- but the stairs leading to the golden letters seem impossible to climb. The concrete below my feet has a magnetic pull, dragging me down into the earth.

    What is he doing in there, so close I feel I’m breathing again into his neck? He could be having a nice night with the old man, one I will undoubtedly ruin. Or perhaps he’s miserable, and the sight of me will set him over the edge. I still see the most likely outcome being the painting promptly ripped out of my hands and a door slamming in my face. I gnaw at my thumbnail, my leg trembling, wanting to bounce up and down in my shoe. Just go in. Just go in.

    Quickly, so I don’t have time to stop myself, I run up the steps and start rapping at the door.

    Summary

    “Look, here’s the deal.” Nat leans forward and plants her hands on the table. “If we do this, you tell nobody, okay? Not Van, not Laura Lee, not Taissa or Lottie or Misty fucking Quigley, do you understand me?”

    Shauna frowns, but says nothing.

    “That means you don’t tell Jackie, either,” Nat says. “If that’s going to be a problem, then let me know and we can both start rehearsing for the spring musical now.”

    Natalie Scatorccio is having a bad year. She’s not sleeping, her mom’s new boyfriend sucks, and a blown history test might bench her for the season. Luckily, Coach Martinez has an idea:

    Tutoring.

    From Shauna Shipman.

    Summary

    They've been at college for an entire semester, and Shauna is really fucking sick of the Jackie-Jeff rollercoaster. So, when Jeff dumps Jackie right before winter break, Shauna decides she's willing to do pretty much anything to keep them broken up. Jackie just wants to feel wanted, so what harm can a few messages from a new account really do?

    Meanwhile, Jackie is trying to figure out how to keep her biggest secret under wraps, now that Jeff has royally fucked her over and totally blown her cover. She'd just wanted one year out of the house, before having to worry about what not having a boyfriend meant for her.

    Summary

    As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:

    --His clothing was expensive and stylish;
    --He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
    --His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
    --He looked angry;
    --He was wearing sunglasses.

    What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

    Summary

    Love is a funny thing. It’s standing with a girl in a desert after a crippling battle and wondering how am I going to tell her? It’s sitting next to a boy in a van while he lies to you and thinking oh, how am I going to tell him?

    Mike’s not sure which is harder - telling someone you don’t love them or telling someone that you do. He supposes it depends on selfishness; if it's worse to break someone else’s heart or to offer your own up to be shattered.

    He supposes he’s going to find out soon enough.

    Or: the one with a boy made of too much fear and too little hope and, just maybe, enough love to make it all worth it anyway.

    “You knew my parents?”

    At that, Mary’s body lurches.

    It’s like watching a lone boat at sea, watching as it’s filled with unforgiving water, dragging it beneath the waves, crashing over the sides and pulling it down, down, down. Mary looks at him, eyes shining bright and faraway again.

    “Yeah,” she whispers. “Yeah, I knew them.”

    A beat.

    “I loved them.”

    Summary

    “What do you want me to do?” Remus says, tiredly. All he wants is to curl up on his bed. Smoke a pack of cigarettes. Get drunk. He can’t stop looking at Harry.

    “Remus...” Dumbledore is gentle. Remus hates when he has that tone. Hates that he knows it will hurt. “There is no one else left.”

    A bitter laugh escapes him. “So you’ll curse the poor thing with a werewolf for a guardian?”

    Dorcas absolutely adores her flatmates/best friends. She would do anything for them, including letting one of their partners move in when they find out they're expecting a child and staying up all hours of the night to research raising this child. Could this lead to a friendship (or more) with the girl in the flat across the hallway?
