    Summary

    “DUSTIN!” Steve screamed, a choked, desperate sound, scrambling to his feet and running towards the unseeing boy. He was shaking slightly beneath Eddie’s hands, head twitching due to whichever vision Vecna was forcing on him.

    Summary

    Everyone had made it upstairs, and as Steve was still paranoid after what had happened with Nancy, he did a quick head count.

    Robin, Nancy, Max, Lucas, Erica, and Eddie.

    But no Dustin.

    Maybe he missed him.

    He counted again.

    Robin, Nancy, Max, Lucas, Erica, and Eddie.

    Still no Dustin.

    As he was looking disoriented and confused, Max asked him if he was okay, Steve told her and everyone else to wait. He turned around and headed back downstairs. At the bottom, he caught his eye on Dustin. The boy stood as still as a statue with his hands at his sides and his flashlight loosely in his grip.

    Summary

    a Dustin-centric fic post S4-ending because I love him, first work here on AO3, contains a weird background ship (Dustin/aged-up Erica) and a let's say interesting head canon of mine about Dustin's father. Also Eddie and Barb are alive (not at the beginning, will be explained) because I love them both.

    ---
    excerpt:

    “Dustin Henderson. What a pleasure to finally meet you again.” He heard an unknown voice saying. He wasn’t stupid, he knew he was put under Vecna’s curse, but hearing Vecna made this more real. Made the danger more real seeing as Vecna wasn’t supposed to be able to contact one of them again. Dustin was scared like any other under the curse would have been. Dustin was scared but unlike others he didn’t fear for his own safety. He put the others in front of him-self like he always did. Dustin was scared Vecna would come for his friends when he already came for him.

    Summary

    When his mom comes to pick him up, it happens.

    “Put your coat on, hon, it’s freezing out.”

    Dustin rolls his eyes—it’s hardly that cold—but as he steps outside, the air hits his bare skin and—

    He’s in The Upside Down, and the cold is in his throat, in his lungs, he can’t stop shaking with it, and Eddie, he’s—he’s not breathing

    -

    It’s only once everything is okay that Dustin starts thinking there’s something deeply wrong with him.

    Summary

    Dustin Henderson: the loud-mouthed, smartass friend. He's always been one to butt into a conversation and have the smarts to be important, right? After the Hawkins "Earthquakes", Dustin was now an orphan, with a missing father and a now-deceased mother. Dustin was taken in by his older friends, Eddie and Steve. But as time and grief passes by, Dustin finds himself alone. His friends all busy with something else.

    Dustin is going through a journey that isn't world-ending or including monsters from the Upside Down, but something that feels like an uphill battle that he himself can't see himself getting through.

    Will Dustin Henderson be able to fill this numbing feeling in his chest?

    Summary

    “-Eddie!”

     

    …And Dustin wakes up in the middle of the night - a quick glance at his darkened calendar tells him it's the 21st of March, 1986 - with Eddie Munson's name on his lips.

    -

    After waking up from a nightmare where he witnesses his Hellfire leader die, Dustin is quick to brush it off as coincidence. His traumatised brain conjuring up new tortures.

    Until he dreams that Chrissy Cunningham - a girl he's never met but has heard whispers of in the halls - is crumpled up like paper and dies in the woods with Eddie Munson watching on helplessly. And then he wakes up and finds out, the next morning, that it actually happened.

    Now he can't quite brush it off so easily.

    He just has to find Eddie, defeat whatever evil force is at play once more in Hawkins, and get his body to stop feeling so much pre-emptive dread around people he cares about. Oh, and stop the nosebleeds.

    Easy, right?

    Summary

    Once Vox went by a different name. Not Vincent. A different name that brought him shame and tasted bitter on his tongue. Even then, some of his happiest memories are from when he bore that name. But now those memories are tainted by his current reality and rivalry with the Radio Demon.

    Unbeknownst to everyone but himself, Vox and Alastor knew each other once while in life. It was a secret he had carried for decades but now as he lay broken in the wake of his defeat he couldn’t help himself to spit the truth back in Alastor’s face. The look of shock on the face of his once husband was the greatest present to Vox as he welcomed the promise of death with open arms.

    His only regret? Not being able to see his daughter in Heaven one last time.

    Or

    Vox is defeated at the end of season 2. Before he passes out from fatigue and injury, he reveals his two greatest secrets. Is reconciliation possible? Redemption? A family reunion?
