    Summary

    It's 1985 and in the quiet months before Hawkins starts to burn again, Mary-Elizabeth MacKinley is already unraveling. She's graduating this year. Vinyl Frontier is relocating. Eddie’s leaving for Indianapolis. Her mom is seeing someone new. Babysitting Dustin is about to be a thing of the past. And the future—whatever that even means for a girl like her—is coming fast. To make things more confusing, somewhere in the middle of it all, Steve Harrington keeps showing up with dumb jokes, soft eyes, and a patience she doesn’t know what to do with.

    Then Starcourt Mall opens. Neon lights, minimum wage, and new friendships start pulling everyone back together. But beneath the food court and escalators, something ugly is waking up. Something that makes all the other battles they've fought look harmless. Something that makes the change of growing up feel like the least of Mac's problems.

    ***Please read my Season 1 & 2 rewrites 'Distorted Paths' and 'Residual Shadows' first to get the full story!***

    THIS IS SET DURING SEASON THREE! EACH SEASON WILL HAVE A SEPERATE FIC IN THIS SERIES! <3

    Summary

    Steve died in the Upside Down, the night Eddie was nearly killed by bats.

    He came back anyway, but he isn’t himself.

    And Eddie runs his mouth because, well. It’s the end of the world, right? What does he have to lose? He never expected it to actually work.

    There’s a lot still going on. They still have a lot they need to talk about. And Eddie Munson still has a lot to lose.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I just spent like half a week of my free time (which is limited) scouring through my history to find this fic because I thought it was brilliant and wanted to reread it. It was hard to find it but diligence won out and now we rejoice and leave EXTRA KUDOS since AO3 won't let me leave 600 kudos

    Summary

    Eddie has had his fair share of fantasies, but none of them involved fucking a paramedic.

    Until two years ago.

    That's when the "sexy men at work"-calendar got added to his porn stash and orgasms as he knew them changed forever. All the men in the calendar are hot, but none of them hold a candle to the paramedic. He's got this look in his eyes, this slant to his mouth. Like he knows he's the hottest guy in it.

    And everything is fine. Everything is great. Eddie's been single forever and he has no idea where he's headed in life, but he's fine.

    At least until he's collateral damage in a bar fight after a gig, and none other than his sexy November-paramedic arrives to treat his wounds.

    Summary

    Steve has been a pediatric nurse for long enough to know that Eddie and his daughter shouldn’t be seeing him in the emergency room this often. Ellie Munson can only shove so many marbles up her nose and eat so many crayons before he starts to think the five year old might have an ulterior motive.

    Summary

    Even though Eddie's name has been cleared legally, he's still very much on trial in the court of public opinion. Dealing drugs isn't a lucrative occupation anymore, and getting a legitimate job in a town who still considers him a killer isn't much of an option, either. Eddie is beginning to think skipping town and starting over somewhere no one knows his name is the only chance he has left. Steve has another idea.

    AKA: Steve gets Eddie a job as an anonymous columnist at a local newspaper.
