Summary
The descent is slow, like watching someone knock your mom’s favorite crystal vase off the shelf and the sheer horror and panic that overwhelms you and slows time down, makes you think that you can get across the room in time to catch it.
But you never do, do you?
The vase shatters and with it, so does every preconceived notion you have of yourself.
That’s what Steve learns.
He learns how to fall, gracefully even.
And in the end, he learns how to shatter.Or
Steve saves Eddie in the Upside Down and it's hilarious and it broke Steve wide open.
There is family, and oh god, there is so much love.

Summary
Every date Steve has gone to lately has been horrible. It’s impossible that there’s something wrong with the entire female population of Hawkins, so surely there must be something wrong with him.
“Why don’t you take me on a date then?”
“Wh— what?”
“Take me on a date, pretend, of course, and then I’ll tell you if there’s something wrong with you or not.”
Or: Eddie proposes a crazy idea to see if there's something wrong with him, Steve finds the fact that it works is even crazier.

Summary
"I'm Buck."
"Buck," Eddie tests the name out. Buck. He likes that name. It sounds good, warm and safe and comfortingly familiar on his tongue. "You're my husband."
Buck's eyes widen, obviously surprised that Eddie remembered that. See, look? He's recovering remarkably quickly. He'll have his full memory back in no time.
"Your husband," Buck repeats and Chris, for some reason, starts giggling.
"My husband," Eddie agrees happily.
-
Eddie suffers temporary amnesia after an injury at work and makes some assumptions about the nature of his and Buck's relationship.
