    Summary

    "You gotta give me somethin," Jim practically pleaded. He was hesitant to push the kid, but he didn't want to see Steve dead on the side of the road after another drunk driving incident, or splayed out on the bathroom floor from alcohol poisoning. Something had to give.

    Maybe something had. Steve's shoulders had started to shake—He was crying silently into his knees. Carefully, Jim set a hand onto his back, rubbing gently when Steve leaned into it. They spend a long few moments like that before Jim dared to speak again.

    "Kid, why do you do this to yourself?"

    -

    Or the tragedy of trying to call a dead man's number as your emergency call.

    Summary

    It is the early years of Jayce and Viktor's scientific partnership, and the Distinguished Innovators competition is only three days away. That is, if they can get all the work done for it in time when Jayce is exhausted, overworked, and at risk of burning out entirely before they even make it there.

    So when Jayce jokingly asks Viktor to take control and tell him what to do, in the hopes that it will help Jayce relax and get some much needed sleep before the competition, he was not expecting Viktor to so readily oblige. Nor was he expecting what happened after.

    Summary

    Steve Harrington is a background character in Eddie’s life, one who he only knows because it’s a small town and everyone knows everyone. Everyone has some distant connection, some oddly personal anecdote about everyone else in town.

    Eddie’s connection is that he’s been slowly falling in love with the guy for years before ever getting to know the real him. When he does, it only makes it worse.

    - (or: Eddie lives out a queer teen RomCom while the Upside Down goes 'hehehe' out of frame)

    Summary

    Eddie falls asleep in the back of the RV. Steve watches it happen in stages, after the stop at The War Zone—driving a little further out for a food shop, away from prying eyes.

    He announces that the coast is clear when the roads become reassuringly empty. For the first time in days, he relaxes into the rhythm of driving: he’s triple-checked that no-one’s tailing them, and if it weren’t for the hastily bought weapons, he could almost pretend that…
