Summary
“You know, Harrington, despite all those muscles, you’re actually quite pretty. Maybe prettier than most girls I know. You’ve just got that… sense to you. That touch that all the pretty slags have.”
His hand slipped from his wrists, moving to card into Steve’s hair, nails dully scraping against his scalp. Taking strands of his hair under his fingers, twirling it, he could feel a drop of blood fall from Billy’s chin onto his shirt, making it slightly damp against him. Sticky and uncomfortable.
Or,
An alternate take on what happens in season two episode nine if Steve had the foresight to make sure the kids hid before the went out to talk to Billy. Without their interruption, things get heated, and Billy decides that Steve will make a good replacement for his missing date that night. -

Summary
Rosemary Clarke never planned on finishing high school in Hawkins, Indiana. She definitely didn’t plan on living with her nerdy science-teacher uncle, getting adopted by a bunch of overexcited middle schoolers, or forming an uneasy co-babysitter alliance with Steve Harrington of all people.
But Hawkins is stranger than it looks, and normal keeps slipping through Rose’s fingers. Between Dungeons & Dragons nights, suspicious happenings no one can explain, and one ex–golden boy trying very hard to be better than he was, Rose finds herself building a new life out of grief, bad jokes, and late-night car rides.
There is too much hairspray, cryptic small-town mysteries no one quite wants to name out loud, and two reluctant babysitters who keep ending up on the same side of things. Rose and Steve are determined not to talk about the way they fit together in a crisis… or the quiet, inconvenient feelings that start growing in between monsters, math homework, and middle school dances.

Summary
Mike tries to wrestle out of Will’s grasp but he doesn’t even budge. He has his wrists pinned on either side of his head and his hips are straddling his waist. Mike wouldn’t complain about their position in any other situation, but right now all he feels is fear. Will’s eyes are that milky white again and his teeth are bared, chest heaving intensely. It looks eerily similar to him killing the demogorgons at the Mac-Z and it makes Mike want to hurl.
Mike has never been scared of Will. Mike knows the power that the boy holds, even dating back to his early teen years and his easy use of a shotgun. He knows Will is capable of being dangerous, but it’s never been pointed at him. He’s terrified now.

Summary
Casey McPhee has always stayed in the shadows. Smart, responsible, and quietly fierce, she’s spent years navigating life in Hawkins while carrying burdens most people don’t see. A brother lost too soon, a mother who left when she was barely a teenager, and a father who measures her every move against impossibly high (and often cruel) standards. Babysitting the town’s kids has become her anchor.
But Hawkins has a way of turning ordinary nights into something unrecognizable. When the upside down begins to seep into her world, Casey is pulled into a reality she never imagined, forced to confront dangers that don’t just threaten the town, but threaten her in ways that shake her carefully controlled life.
Amid chaos, strange creatures, and secrets that could unravel everything, Casey finds unexpected bonds. With kids she’s watched over for years, schoolmates who finally see her for who she is, a chief of police lacking subtly, and a certain older boy whose charm she can’t quite ignore. Slowly, dangerously, she discovers that being responsible for herself might be just as important as protecting everyone else, and that survival alone isn’t enough to make a life worth living.

Summary
For Steve, things never went according to plan. He had never thought he’d be graduating in ‘86, the same year as Robin and Nancy, a year after be was supposed to. But he also never planned on letting anyone find out that he’s one of the kids from Hawkins’ Lab, that he’s like Eleven.
But now he’s spending his lunchbreaks with the Hellfire Club and finds himself befriending Eddie “The Freak” Munson. And maybe he also has a tiny crush on Munson, not that he’d ever admit that to anyone.
Hawkins being Hawkins, a year can never be complete without another threat from the Upside Down, and if there was one thing Steve had definitely not planned for, it was Eddie getting dragged into the whole mess alongside the rest them.OR: Steve is Seven and failed his classes causing him to have to repeat his last year of Highschool. He and Eddie become friends and maybe something more but then Vecna attacks and Eddie is pulled into a part of Steve’s life he never wanted him to be a part of.

Summary
Inexplicably, Steve's hand reaches out to touch the carved letters that don’t even spell out Eddie’s real name. “Fuck. Shitty first date. I mean, if you want it to be. Otherwise, it’s just a talk. Guess you’ll have to tell me sometime.” His palm rests against the stone, fingers splaying, and he scooches another inch closer, and then another, until he’s almost pressed against it. For a heartbeat, he just breathes there, pretends, between inhales and exhales, that the scent of Eddie’s cheap cologne, something spicy and soothing, always mixed with earthy weed, twines into the crests of the wind.
---
Or, A series of moments that bring us from Eddie's death to Stranger Things 5 and let us see how Steve and Dustin have arrived where they are. Or, Dustin is struggling with Steve being alive and Eddie being dead, and Steve is struggling with missing them both. Or, get your tissues ready, folks—it's terrible and beautiful.
Bonus: Steve sews Dustin’s shirt up when the bullies rip it up. || Robin sews Steve up when Dustin rips him up.

Summary
Heavy was the head that wore the crown, but heavier was the sword carried by those trying to knock it down. Artists always use love as a muse, the deeply interwoven and woven vines of two people's hearts. Being able to look at someone and cherish everything about them, regardless of how unsightly and rotted it might be. But there was something profoundly intimate about hating another person. Noticing every diminutive detail and scrutinizing it with a microscope, memorizing every fold and crease about a person and loathing even the finest crack in their armour. It was beautiful to hate someone. Annette Buckley and Steve Harrington. He was arrogant and pompous; she was studious and argumentative. It was written in the stars that they would score one another with conniving cuts of the tongue. They should've been the high school sweethearts, a love story for the ages of Hawkins! Not for Annette, though; all she saw in him was wasted potential. Until her car breaks down over Christmas break, when the heat felt like a frigid freeze amidst the shared breath of the two. That night haunted her like a nightmare, following her around as a shadow of remembrance. Until now, in the Spring of 1985, when the story begins.
