Summary
One year after he was released from the mental health ward following a suicide attempt, Dean’s finally found himself doing what he knew he would — following in his father’s footsteps and taking over the family business: “Winchester Funeral Home and Services.” It’s not Dean’s dream or anything, but his doctors want his dad to supervise him and Sam’s away at college, so he makes the most of what he’s got. Dean minds his business and helps grieving families send their loved ones away one final time.
His path intersects with Castiel, a man who just moved to town to plan his estranged late brother’s funeral and raise his niece. It’s not the most appropriate place to make a connection, but Dean’s life is full of oddities and instability, so really who is he to question it?

Summary
In his many, many death fantasies, Will has avoided three forms of death: drowning, burning, and suffocating. They’re incomparably long and painful ways to die, and even imagining that for himself panics Will in a way he can’t handle.
The worst part is the vivid image playing in Will’s mind. He can see Nancy pressed into Jonathan’s chest, one hand clutching at his shirt, the other grabbing his hand. He can see Jonathan rubbing his thumb over the back of Nancy’s head, can see him kissing the top of her head. He hears Jonathan whisper I love you, like it even means anything in a time like that. He can even feel her grip his hand just a little tighter as they start to get consumed by a thick substance slowly rising.
It’s gross, it’s horrid, and it’s most likely not real. Will knows this, but he doesn’t fight these visions out of his head. Maybe it’s Vecna trying to mess with him, but Will welcomes it. It’s nice to see Jonathan’s face so clearly, just one last time.
[.]
Or: Nancy and Jonathan die in the Upside Down, and Mike and Will learn to navigate their grief and their feelings for each other all while defeating Vecna once and for all.

Summary
“You played well, today,” Nancy says, sipping her Diet Coke. “Against Steve.”
Jonathan smiles. “Does that surprise you?”
She smirks. “Maybe a little bit. Or, maybe I knew he never stood a chance.”
“That’s not very supportive girlfriend of you.”
“I said maybe, Jonathan. Maybe I’m a KGB spy. Maybe means nothing.”
“No, maybe means everything.”
.
Or: Jonathan, Nancy, and Steve find their lives and tennis careers inescapably woven together. -

Summary
If you asked Whizzer-from-last-year what he would be doing a year in the future, his last response would be arguing with his SNL crush at a table read while dozens of people just sort of…observe. He’d never met this man before, but Marvin was still arguing with him like it was their hundredth fight, not first. His confidence would be intriguing or even arousing if it wasn’t so infuriating.
...
In October of 2022, openly gay baseball star Whizzer Brown is invited to host Saturday Night Live. During that week, he makes a lifelong enemy in Marvin Cohen of Weekend Update fame.
In 2024, Whizzer believes it's safe to host SNL again because Marvin has left the show to pursue bigger and better things. Due to an unfortunate coincidence with the musical guest, he is dead wrong, and after that night, his life is never the same.
