Summary
"You look nice," Robin said, patting Mike on the shoulder when she found him alone in the hallway, a glass of punch in his hands. She's dressed in black jeans and a grey woolly sweater. Mike glanced down at himself.
"I always wear this," he declared.
"You don't wear khakis. Or plaid."
She said it like she knew him better than he knew himself.
That was the first thing that made him think.
Or, Mike Wheeler and his blossoming friendship with Robin Buckley.

Summary
“Could I get a name for the order?” Marlene asked.
“Serious,” the man replied. “Like the star,” he clarified, and Remus mentally scratched out 'Serious' and rewrote 'Sirius' in his head.
“The… star?” Marlene asked, her pen hovering over the cup as she hesitated.
“S-I-R-I-U-S,” Remus said. He stocked croissants into the display case, not looking up. “The Dog Star,” he added, “brightest star in the sky, actually. Visible from both hemispheres.” When he looked over, the man– Sirius– seemed surprised, his eyebrows raised as Remus spoke, and when Remus finished, he blinked a few times before smiling lopsidedly.
“Er– yeah,” he breathed a laugh. “That.” There was a baby on his hip. Somehow, it had taken Remus a second glance to notice that.
---
Or, Remus works as a barista and Sirius comes in every morning with the world's cutest baby, and man, these two just wrote the book on mutual pining, huh?

Summary
It was really just his luck that a hulking monster lumbered out of the woods and directly onto his driveway. Just his luck that he threw enough parties when his parents were gone that the neighbors had long tuned out any noise that came from his yard. Just a nice cherry on top of the fucking cake that, even if anyone did hear him screaming when claws tangled in his jacket and pulled, Steve honestly wasn’t sure they’d have cared enough to bother anyway.
OR:
Months before El ripped open the gate at Hawkins Lab, the Demogorgon started ripping tears of its own. Months before it found Will Byers, it found Steve Harrington.

Summary
"So," Max says, twisting her braid around one hand and arching an eyebrow. "What is in it for you, then? I know I'm not the highest ranking princess you met with."
This is it. Nerves of steel. You've got this. Choke now and you jeopardize everything. "I like you," he says truthfully, and she squints at him disbelievingly. "You're- spunky, I suppose. I think I could trust you."
She frowns. "Trust me with what?"
Now or never. "Hypothetically," Will says, spreading his palms against his knees and trying his best to control his erratic heartrate, "How- open of a marriage would you be okay with?"
Being a prince isn't everything it's cracked up to be, but Will tries to make the most of it.
