Summary
“Who… who tried to stop him?” Mike finally manages to ask, and he dares to look up at the strange girl. “Eleven, who tried to stop Henry?”
There’s a pause. Then, Eleven lifts her head, and she looks Mike directly in the eye. And Mike… Mike knows. Without her even saying a word, Mike knows.
Eleven points to the picture one more time—points to Will one more time. And with a voice full of conviction and full of truth, she whispers, “Will.”
Or:
November 6, 1987. Four years after Will Byers' disappearance and mysterious death, things begin to get a little... strange in Hawkins, Indiana.

Summary
Lewis doesn’t smile. He just looks at him. Really looks at him.
“Seriously. What’s going on with you?”
Nico grips his glass tighter. His knuckles go white against the curve of it, but he doesn’t drink.
He could tell him. About the way his hands shake sometimes. He could tell him that some nights, he stares at the ceiling of his hotel room and wonders if he’s made a mistake by staying. If he’s stuck in something he doesn’t know how to walk away from.
But he won’t.OR: A story about knowing someone so well you start losing pieces of yourself in them. About the weight of a championship, a career, a life spent measuring yourself against one person. About wondering who you are without it all. About what it means to stop fighting—and what it means to choose.

Summary
[Sokka is five when the first mark appears.
It writes itself in a deep red like a wound, as if someone had carved the word “nonbender” in a messy font across the knuckles of his left hand, as if it was handwritten with a knife.
When he asks his mother, as she applies salve on Sokka’s knuckles, she sighs deeply and says nothing for a few moments.
“Sometimes, spirits don’t make much sense.”
Sokka has yet to turn thirteen when he wakes up screaming in pain, about ten soulmarks all over each other between his left shoulder and his ear, red and vivid like burning flesh. Among the few words that are somehow possible to read out of the disastrous scribbling, “disrespectful” and “coward” and “burned” and “sorry sorry sorry” are the ones that stand out the most to Sokka. He thinks, at the tender age of twelve, whoever did this to his soulmate will be sorry too, one day.
A month after Hakoda leaves him with the job of the protector at the age of thirteen, Sokka realizes, with a bitter taste in his mouth, that he’s got more soulmarks than his entire village combined.]
Or, to have a soulmark is to carry the vilest things that your soulmate believes about themselves on your skin.

Summary
The World Championship trophy rests in his trembling hands, his name etched in fine gold. It isn't until he's staring down at it—his name nestled close to Max’s—that he realises his dreams have always been carved out of someone else’s pain. Jules. Max.
And now, maybe even himself.
