Summary
“Steve,” Wayne echoes. “This is my home. Eddie’s my boy.” And then he ruffles his hair with one large hand, coarse from years of working with them, in an action that reminds Steve of Hopper.
“I’m gonna go down there and get my boy back. You’re gonna be my tour guide.” He holds his hand out for the final gun Steve has stashed, which he gives over reluctantly. He finds Wayne remarkably difficult to argue with—wonders if Eddie found the same. “Tour guides don’t need guns. You point at somethin’, I shoot it. Got it, Steve?”
(Steve knows Eddie’s alive. Wayne’s the only one who believes him. So they team up to save him.)- Language:

Summary
Steve jerks awake, sitting up so quickly that Robin almost topples over and staring wildly around the room. When his gaze lands on Eddie, he blanches visibly.
“Oh, shit,” he mutters. “Come on, no. Come on. Not again.”
“Harrington?” Eddie asks slowly. He does not love the way that Steve is staring at him right now. He really doesn’t. Steve looks like he’s staring at a ghost, a bloodied monster, like Eddie is something that should not exist in the light of day. “You good, dude?”

Summary
It wasn't supposed to go like this.
Steve was supposed to work with Robin at the Family Video, flirt with the many many girls who came to browse the expansive selection of VHSes, go on some dates, and hopefully find The One.
It was supposed to be a notably upside-down free year.
And, hey, for what it's worth? He wasn't supposed to be pinned down on a mattress by Eddie Munson either.
And he certainly wasn't supposed to be enjoying it.
But that's getting a bit ahead of things…

The One in Which a Time Loop is Fucking Exhausting. by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.
Steve fails. They lose.
“Steve, how many loops have you been through?”
His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.
“I lost count.”
AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

Summary
Ben gently lowers him on the bed and moves to leave. Johnny makes a mortifying sound and shoots an arm out to hold him in place.
“Johnny,” Ben whispers. “I’m gonna go get Reed, ok?”
“Nooo…” Johnny whines. Even if it wouldn’t be absolutely mortifying for Reed to see him this way, he thinks he might die if Ben’s warmed-up skin doesn’t stay pressed to his neck.
“He’ll make you feel better,” Ben insists.”
“You feel better,” Johnny whispers. Ben stiffens then relaxes in his grasp.
“Alright,” Ben sighs out. Johnny feels Ben’s weight settle next to him in bed. He sighs in contentment as Ben’s large hand settles gingerly onto his aching head. The combined pressure and heat is starting to ease the pounding. “But we’re getting you some painkillers first thing in the morning.”
“You’re not my dad,” Johnny mumbles. He falls asleep to the rumble of Ben’s gentle chuckles.

Or, a study in Johnny and Ben's queerplatonic relationship

Summary
"Congrats again on the award; you deserve it." And with that, she disappeared into the crowd.
Probably off to go plan how to hit on Jack. Jack, who this random doctor wanted to have sex with. Here. At the conference.
Intellectually, Robby knew that was what people did at these things. Drunken hookups at conferences were common, though often denied, if not regretted. Robby had never partaken because that was not his speed, but Jack—
Well, Jack had no such qualms. And at an ED medical conference, he was basically a rockstar. He could probably have anyone he wanted.

Summary
It’s the spring of ‘97 when Michael Robinavitch is dragged into a gay bar for the very first time.
When he meets Jack Abbot there, the two of them are on the cusp of radically different futures: Robby is about to begin his residency, and Jack is days away from shipping out to the army. They know better than to get attached - know the timing is wrong, the goodbye inevitable - but something tender takes root anyway. Through every deployment, Jack thinks of Robby more than he ought to; through every failed relationship, Robby wonders about what might've been.
Years later, when their paths cross again at PTMH, the past resurfaces — and though they’re older, more jaded, and scarred in different ways, they find themselves pulled towards everything they left unfinished.

Summary
The night before his very first shift as an MS3 in PTMC, Robby meets a guy at a bar and goes home with him—it's perfect, but it's definitely just a one-night stand, especially when he bumps into the guy in the hospital the next morning: Jack Abbot, MS4, who doesn't even seem to remember Robby. Many, many years later, the Pitt Christmas after-party is at the same seedy bar, and it turns out Jack did remember, after all.

Summary
What if Bill hadn't made his way to Bon Temps before the murders started, and Sookie decided to go to Fangtasia to investigate on her own? This is my take on Season One of True Blood with a nice heaping dose of Eric/Sookie. I've changed some events, eliminated others, and added many more. Maudette and Dawn have been murdered and Jason is the prime suspect. The story begins on the afternoon of the day that Sookie goes to Fangtasia for the first time.
