Summary
"Just close your eyes," Mike whispered. "Imagine we're in the blanket fort. It's just us."
Eleven is seven months pregnant, kneeling in the NYC snow, and watching the life fade from Mike Wheeler’s eyes. He is trapped, kept alive only by the same twisted metal that is killing him. There are no monsters to fight this time, no powers that can fix a broken heart, and no way to rewrite the ending.
In his final moments, Mike isn't a hero or a leader—he’s just a husband saying goodbye to his wife and a father meeting his baby through a car window.
An inverted take on the finale: the Paladin falls, and the superhero is left behind to carry his memory into the light.

Summary
After eight years of absence, grief, and quiet survival, two lives shaped by loss continue forward on separate paths—one through words, the other through silence. Set between Hawkins and a distant land of waterfalls and wide skies, this story explores longing, fate, and the kind of love that refuses to fade, even when distance and time try to erase it.
Told through moments of memory, waiting, and gentle hope, it is a story about learning how to live again, finding home in unexpected places, and trusting that some connections are never truly lost.

Summary
Truth be told, she hadn’t meant to wait exactly eleven years.
The days are long but peaceful. It took a while—almost two years, to be precise—for the tension to release from her muscles. To finally relax within the walls of her small apartment, or out under the Icelandic sun, and no longer feel as though she is being hunted, watched. She had to remind herself, actively, waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat with a frightful whimper or a wanting name on her lips, that Hawkins was some three thousand miles away. That no one is looking for a girl named Eleanor Iverson in Hella, Iceland.

Summary
“He must’ve really loved her Mommy,” Kali said. “I would be mad if I loved someone and they left me.”
Jane sighed and her face twisted slightly as she thought about her Paladin. The way his eyes used to sparkle when he looked at her and the kindness he had shown her when they had met. He had made her feel safe. They had loved each other, but alas, some people come into others lives for a reason and when they've accomplished their purpose, its time to move on. She hadn't thought their parting time would come as soon as it did, but she would always cherish the time they'd spent together.
“He did love her a lot," Jane said quietly.
Or
Its been twenty one years since Eleven had made her escape and left her life in Hawkins Indiana behind and now she has a family. She opens up her vault of past memories and tells her daughters a story about a Mage and a Paladin.

Summary
He could go home tomorrow and pretend this never happened. Invite Lucas and Max and Dustin over, play cards at the dining table and drink eggnog. None of them even know he's here.
But he’d look at the empty seat beside him, over and over, a tongue poking at the gap where a tooth used to be. But he’d toss and turn all night, not letting her slip from his mind in the hopes that she’d at least appear in his dreams.
But his heart pounds, insistent, as he stumbles around the town, like it knows something.
Four years ago, El vanished with the Upside Down. Now, Mike's heart pulls him to Iceland, desperate to find her.
