Summary
“Goddamn,” Eddie kind of shouts, but kind of growls; he’s not entirely in control of the way his voice is shaping words. “You little twits talked about him like a minor god when I first met you, and then here you are, all,” he gestures wildly at the gathered…all of them before he asks maybe the question with the actual point:
“Do you even know whether you love him or you hate him?”
In their defense, after they stop being stunned-silent, they start looking fucking angry. Dustin looks downright appalled.
“What?”
-
Or: Steve Harrington isn’t just the best thing to happen to Eddie Munson. He’s kinda the best fucking thing, period. And the fact that he doesn’t seem to realize it, himself? Is a fucking tragedy.
So, yeah: Eddie sure as hell does make it his single-minded mission to ensure everyone around them makes a point to stop talking shit and let Steve know what he means; how much he is loved.
Because all of Eddie’s own—perfectly valid—biases about his absolute revelation of a boyfriend aside: it’s literally the least these dipshits can do.

Summary
“Our friends are being mean.”
Will jumps as El lets herself into his room and drops onto his bed. She doesn't look at him, arms crossed and frowning up at the ceiling.
“Umm. Hello. I see you are upset so I won’t complain about the not knocking thing. Again.” She blinks and finally looks over at him with a small pout. “Sorry.”
He shakes his head, smiling fondly, “It’s fine. Why are our friends being mean? What did they do?”
El lets out a puff of air and returns to the staring contest she had been having with the ceiling.
“They are being rude to Steve.”

Summary
“If you’re looking for Arlong, he’s inside,” she says, pointing at the monstrous building. Jinbe doesn’t look away from her, from the bruise over her eye. She can’t be older than thirteen or fourteen. Her fingers are worn red and raw. As he watches, a drop of blood drips to the ground.
A girl, with reddish hair and exhausted eyes and a ragged, forced smile, and it’s Koala but it’s not.
(Jinbe goes to check in on his brother, and finds some things that need to be set right.)

Summary
Something cold and hard slides into his side. “Don’t move.” A voice says, startling Buck into compliance. Athena looks up, arm still around the girl who locks eyes with the man shoving a gun in Buck’s side. A hand grips Buck’s other shoulder, holding him in place.
“Buck.” Athena warns, like she’s afraid he’s going to try anything.
“I’m not moving.” Buck snaps out for both Athena and the gunman’s sake.

A short story that was inspired while writing Once More (With Feeling) but can be read without reading the main story. No actual mentions of shifters/shifting in this story. It is set after Abby leaves but before Eddie joins the 118

Summary
Bobby frowns at his phone, then leans over to show the screen to Buck. “May keeps sending me these memes,” he says the word wrong, and it makes Buck’s eyes sting for some reason. “And I just don’t understand what on earth this is supposed to mean.”
Buck coughs, mostly to cover up for the way his eyes are watery, and blinks at the screen. He doesn’t know how to say thank you, for any of it, but maybe he can at least figure this out.

After the factory fire, Buck’s parents show up at the station. It goes poorly. Written for the bad things happen bingo prompt: backhand slap.
