Summary
“I don’t want to be a stupid boy,” Max hiccups, pulling uselessly at Billy’s mullet currently spouting out from her head. Her chest twinges painfully in tune with her heaving, panicked breaths. “I don’t want to be you.”
Or, Max and Billy find themselves stuck in unusual circumstances in which they learn a few things about each other, and grow closer as siblings in the process.

Summary
Billy doesn’t think this was the intention with this… curse, or whatever the fuck nerdy-ass thing Henderson had call it over the phone. That is, if there ever was an intention to begin with, and not just a massive cosmic joke at the expense of four unfortunate teens who had found themselves at the wrong place at the wrong time. Billy had never been very lucky in life, after all.

Summary
“Can you tell me again, doc? In simple terms this time.”
Dr. Owens has the decency to look apologetic as he sets his clipboard aside on his desk, and leans against the heavy furniture with folded arms. “The entity made you an omega, Billy.”
...
Alternatively, Billy was a fool to think that it'd all be over by now.

Summary
"Fine," Billy says after a beat. "If you're still going steady with your right hand in five years, you have to go on a date with the worst person you can think of. Shake things up a bit, you might learn something."
Steve blinks at him, eyebrows creeping up his forehead, his stupid smirk slowly growing more amused. "So what you're saying is, if I lose I have to date you."
The train of thought Billy had been trying to get back on track comes screeching to a fiery wreck of a halt.
(or, steve and billy make a bet. things don't go as planned. based on a tumblr post.)

Summary
Season 3 spoilers
The chest wound wasn't the worst of it, really. Probably would have been if he'd been awake for it, but for the first six weeks after Billy almost died he was in a medicated haze somewhere so classified he never knew the name of the facility or the faces of any of its staff. ...
No, the worst of it had come a few days into week seven. A nice woman with a sweet voice had come in to explain to him exactly what the extent of his injuries were. Turned out humans just weren't meant to hold a demonic force from another dimension. ... The woman used words like "cortisol" and "parasympathetic nervous system" and "pervasive joint weakness", and Billy stared at her blankly. When he finally understood what she was getting at, he squeezed the rails of his bed until his knuckles turned white.

After the Mindflayer, Billy is left with some lasting effects. Luckily he's got some people to help him through.

Summary
There’s barking. Again.
He could just ignore it. He could. Some stray dog is not his problem. But Max. Max loves it, and it's alone. And he’s not a fucking monster. And he’s trying. For her, and for Steve, and for Susan.
Okay. He’s getting that damn dog.
