Summary
“It’s Jonathan Byers,” Eddie continues. “I don’t get it! You, Wheeler—What’s the appeal with this guy? What’s the allure? No offence, Byers.”
“None taken,” Jonathan says, unfazed.
“I mean, it’s like being attracted to a piece of paper,” Eddie says.
Jonathan frowns. “Some taken.”
Eddie can't wrap his head around Steve dating Jonathan. Jeff is an involuntary witness to, apparently, every single discussion about it.

Summary
Even a decade after relocating to another city, Steve still thinks about a guy he went to high school with.
---
What the hell does he do to his hair to get it like that? All… feathery, but not smooth. It kind of sucks, but it works for him. Him and nobody else. Steve wouldn't be caught dead with his hair looking fried.
Whatshisname sticks his tongue out to freak out the culty blond kid from the Tigers—John? John Carter?—and Steve watches the curve of it until it's back in his mouth. He knows what the tip of a tongue can do, he's got the experiences to back it up, and he wonders if this guy—seriously what's his fucking name?—has ever gone down on a woman or—
Or a guy.

Summary
The light flips on, and there's a loud shriek that makes Eddie jump and hit his head on a shelf in the freezer.
"What are you doing here?!" Steve Harrington demands, brandishing an ice cream scoop like it's a weapon.
In a sailor suit.
Goofy hat, tall socks. A bow around his neck that Eddie has a brief flash of what it might be like to yank on. Just a little.
Or: Somebody's gotta deliver the ice cream to Scoops Ahoy, and that somebody is Eddie.

Summary
“Is this what we do now? Mark our lives out with cassettes?”
Or: Steve Harrington gets into Real Music. After the events of the spring of 1986, Steve and Eddie stumble through the summer by soundtracking every second of it… Treading a fine line between indisputable classics and annoying-on-purpose cacophonies.
It’s a clash of musical titans. And every mixtape counts!
[Sequel to ‘The Worst Mixtape Ever Made’. Now complete.]

Summary
There's a little bronze vase built into the foot of the headstone. Nancy digs out the grass clippings and sticky cobwebs that have accumulated since the last time someone used it, then sits down cross-legged on the grass, the way she used to sit on her bed across from Barb while they worked on their homework and whispered secrets and hopes and dreams. She unwraps the plastic from the flowers and settles them into the vase, then retrieves the water bottle from her bag to fill it.
"Hey," she says quietly. "Hey, Barb."

Draco's got a bad reputation, an infusion of guilt, and nothing to lose. When the Disarming of Harry Potter throws radical groups into chaos and competition for the Elder Wand's power, he's the Auror department's perfect man for the job... so long as he can hide his feelings from the handsome git on the other end of his code phrase.

As soon as Eddie gets to the counter, Steve turns to him and says, “Back me up here. Kissing is no big deal, right?”

Summary
Steve makes a face at Eddie. “You've imagined doing stuff with a guy?”
“Yeah, man,” Eddie replies, spreading his hands wide. “Doesn't everyone?”
Steve tilts his head to the side as he thinks. Maybe not very often, but his freshman year when Davey Riggs had been swim team captain? Yeah, he had definitely imagined some stuff that had made trips to the locker room kinda awkward.
“Yeah, that's true,” Steve answers, nodding. “I wonder why everybody acts like it's so gross, though.”
In the summer of 1986, Steve and Eddie have some perfectly normal fun between a couple of perfectly normal dudes.

Summary
Being the person heading toward that, going down that road, it’s literally killing Cas. They might not even make it to the end of the road before he gets there. And Dean is fine making that decision for himself, but what kind of person has he become, that he’ll make it for Cas, too?
He thinks, for the first time, What the fuck am I doing here?
He can see it now, that there’s a third option. He isn’t going to save the world. He’s not going to kill the devil, he’s not going to get Sam back, he’s not going to change anything for everyone. But maybe he can change something for someone.

Holy fucking hell. It really is him.
“Eliot,” he says, mouth hanging open as he registers the radiant white robes, a shimmering pattern of gold vines twisting and cracking across the diaphanous fabric like lightning. What the fuck is he wearing? He looks like—like a—
“You—you’re a—” Quentin’s eyes snap shut, as though reality might reshape itself into something that actually makes any fucking sense when he opens them. Nope. No such luck. “You’re a priest.”
Silence stretches a chasm between them until, finally: “I’m not a priest.”
(After surviving the monster, Quentin and Eliot drifted apart. Five years later, Quentin ventures into the Fillorian wilderness to find his old friend.)

Summary
“Rules. Like, there’ll be no eating in my car. You’re not driving my car. No heavy metal,” Steve keeps listing, “you’re not picking up women and fucking them in m-”
“I'll try to control myself,” Eddie interrupts with a quip, a smirk. Fucking girls in Steve’s car, or anywhere else for that matter, isn’t going to be an issue, unless something pretty fundamental shifts in him.
Steve continues, completely ignoring Eddie, “You’ll wipe your feet. You’re not dragging dirt all over my car. No hitchhikers. No cutesy road games. No smoking in the car. I’m not paying for all the gas.”
“Ass, gas or grass, got it,” Eddie says, like he's taking this very seriously. He is not taking this seriously.
Or: Road trip!

“Several, I think," Gareth says.
