    Summary

    Steve was still adjusting. Definitely not quite back to normal – probably wouldn’t ever be normal again, if he were honest with himself – but he was on his way to something normal adjacent, and that had to count for something.

    OR:

    As Steve navigates the complicated twists and turns and backslides of recovery, he slowly learns what it's like to have people he can rely on. It's a novel concept.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington just wanted to go for a drive the night of November 6, 1983.

    Just a drive.

    He didn't expect to stumble across Will Byers running alone in the woods, let alone an inter-dimensional flower faced monster out for blood.

    He definitely didn't expect to be dragged into something so much bigger than him that would flip his life upside down forever.

    Summary

    What if Wednesday Addams and Tyler Galpin grew up knowing each other?

    "And then, another vision — softer, stranger, more alien than the rest. The Addams and the Nights shared the same long dining table, candles flickering low as children’s laughter rang out where hatred once festered. Tyler and Wednesday were there too — not meeting across a coffee shop counter heavy with flirtation, not mingling with the rise of betrayal and suspicion, not circling one another like predators raised on false grudges, but seated cross-legged beneath the banquet table as children. Isaac’s nephew, Ophelia’s niece. He — a shy boy, wide-eyed and hesitant, with ink-smudged fingers and a crooked grin. She — a pale, solemn girl, already sharp and strange, daring him to climb higher, jump farther, tempt danger closer.

    Before they were anything else, they were friends."

    Spinoff idea stemming from the last chapter of Bleached Bones, but can be read as a standalone fic.

    Tyler Galpin, fresh out of his rehabilitation camp, isn’t the sweet barista Wednesday remembers, but that does little to stop her from falling for him (again).
