Dazai pulling the "dumb blonde" gimmick? Yes please. I need more. Not only is the humor fantastic, the potential for angst is god-tier.

Summary
Thanks to a deal struck between her and Hop, El may have the chance to spend the summer outside of the cabin with her friends. The deal? El needs to survive until the summer, with no stupid rule-breaking. And in an attempt to keep her entertained until then, she’ll also be getting two babysitters to keep her company in the cabin.
Nancy is familiar territory, but Steve is someone all but unknown to El. But he’s nice, and very interesting to observe, El can’t help but decide.

Summary
He’s upright, at least. Leaned up against something, head tipped back and sort of sitting, with his hands bound, and he almost wants to laugh, on account of how much it reminds him of that first November, handcuffed in the bowels of Hawkins National Lab and that white haired son of a bitch framed in the doorway. Jim squeezes his eyes shut, shakes his head a bit, and opens them again, looking straight ahead then, and would you look at that, he thinks. This is the worst day.
Across from him, Steve Harrington sits flanked by two Soviet soldiers, beefy mother fuckers too, and he looks exactly as terrible as when they went beneath Starcourt and Jim only had time to think, Kid, what the fuck, I’m putting your ass in a bubble after this, so not that much time has passed, he thinks, he hopes. He’s handcuffed too, hands in his lap, and he smirks at Jim, all teenaged boy bravado that he can see through in a heartbeat.
“Hey, Chief,” says Harrington.
Hopper, Steve, and the art of survival.

Summary
For a moment he’s tempted to spill - to tell Hopper that tonight he dreamt about those fucking tunnels, and that the Demodogs that ran past him in reality barelled straight into him in his dreams, and they leapt on to Dustin first and tore into his guts whilst the kids screamed and wailed above him whilst another Demodog charged headlong towards him—
“I’m fine, Chief,” Steve says. In the reflection of the window, he can see Hopper has finally taken off his hat. “You know I’m fine, really.”
Hawkins, Indiana. It's 1985, and it's been four months since they saved the world. But it wasn't enough... closing the Gate wasn't enough. Something's breaching through. Something is fighting to be let loose, and Hawkins - or, more specifically, Steve Harrington - is in some deep shit.
As if he wasn't in enough already.
Basically: How Steve becomes a member of the Party, and how he learns to forgive himself.

Summary
Order 66 goes out. The clone troopers execute their Generals. Jaro Tapal dies in an escape pod and Cal lands on Bracca alone, one of the few surviving Jedi in a galaxy that suddenly wants him dead. Under those circumstances, all he can do is blend in with the scrappers, keep his head down and his eyes open, and try to trust in a Force he can no longer connect with. He shuts his mouth so he never says anything suspicious and then decides perhaps it’s best if he just doesn’t talk at all.
After five years, he’s pretty sure he’s forgotten how.

Summary
A few months after Nur, Cal’s life has fallen into a predictable if not always comfortable routine - he and the crew stay under the radar for a while, find some Imperials who need pissing off, pop up, give the Empire a hard time, and disappear again. He likes it. Even those under the radar parts are never too dull when he winds up doing things like disrupting prisoner transports, scrubbing graffiti off the Mantis, and trying to find a lost Jedi retreat.
Oh, and occasionally being kidnapped by bounty hunters. And getting sick, again, which would be less of a problem were it not for the whole ‘kidnapped by a bounty hunter, again’ thing… and that spleen he doesn’t have.

That silver-haired bastard. That cold-hearted piece of shit walking around Konoha Village, wearing the face of Obito’s oldest living friend, the one Obito had once given his life to save. The Sandaime cleared that treacherous, teammate-slaughtering murderer to return to active duty within a week of their return.
Uchiha Obito’s blood boiled like lava every time he thought about it.

A very neat AU that I adore and really tackles things like PTSD and depression quite realistically, I think. I adore Kakashi & Obito's friendship.

Grief is a great and terrible wound. And, like any wound, if left untreated it can fester. Rot the hearts and minds of those afflicted.
Some allow themselves to mourn Clarines' loss; they treat their grief and heal from the tragedy.
Others let their grief become them. Corrupt them.
And, skilled as she may be at healing wounds, sometimes, they're already too deep by the time she's able to treat them.
Sometimes, she can't save everyone.
