    Summary

    Steve and Dustin reverse fall through the rift and smack hard onto the ground. Steve still has his arms wrapped tightly around Dustin as he watches the rift sew itself shut, the turf knitting over until even the grass looks like it had never been disturbed

    “Dustin?” Steve coughs out. Dustin is laying half on top of him, body heavy. He doesn’t respond. Steve grabs him by the shoulders shaking him, “Dustin, hey—we made it back.” Steve's heart is in his throat as he tips Dustin softly onto the ground, cradling him in his arms. Dustin’s head lolls to the side, eyes closed, and Steve can see blood at his temple, baseball cap long lost.
    --
    Or, Steve and Dustin survive the final battle and start to find a way forward. A companion piece to "Let the World Around Us Just Fall Apart" picking up immediately after from Steve's perspective.

    Summary

    "What about Nancy?" Dustin asks softly against his lips, and Steve knows he's not asking out of jealousy or resentment, but out of curiosity and a good dose of logic.

    It's a logical question, considering how hard Steve was trying to get closer to Nancy, to win back the heart of someone who was never meant to be his... and whom Steve doesn't want to be his, because the person he wants is right in front of him, waiting for something Steve should have given him long ago.

    He exhales softly with a small, sly smile, feeling a tenderness that almost makes his chest ache. He breathes against Dustin's lips, barely touching them, not yet kissing them, and as if his voice were touching something sacred, he murmurs:

    "Turns out she was just my Tammy."

     

    Or: As they prepare to return to the Upside Down, Steve and Dustin confess their feelings.

    Summary

    The extended version of that Lestat/Louis scene from s1 ep6:

    Louis holds up the vinyl, “This her singing?”

    “It’s a clear voice,” Lestat tells him, as though the woman on the record is not in bed with him, “I wanted no obstacle to the lyric.”

    Louis is breathing just as hard as Lestat. He throws the record to the floor, completely shattering the only copy. Antoinette gasps at the sudden movement, but Lestat smiles, the slightest twitch of his lips.

    “Write me a song, put your lover’s voice on it- what the fuck is wrong with your head?” Louis asks.

    Lestat is almost grinning now. Louis is here, in front of him, speaking to him. After six years, Louis is with him once more.

    “Louis, you’re soaking wet,” he says, his voice laced with pure adoration.

    “I swim faster than I drive,” Louis responds.
