    Summary

    He wouldn’t last very long in a fight, he knew. But that was okay. He just had to keep the Demogorgons away from the kids until backup arrived, which would hopefully be within the next six or so minutes.

    Shrugging his shoulder as he adjusted his grip on the axe and held it up in front of him, Steve readied himself and planted his feet.

    “Hey, uglies! Why don’t you pick on someone your own size?”

    Summary

    The thing is, Mike knows.

    He’s known for the last eleven months, two weeks, and eighteen days. He’s known since it became impossible for Will to hide it, when the darkness almost killed him.

    They just don’t talk about it. He doesn’t care that Will doesn’t like girls, or that he used to like some nameless boy a long time ago, back when they were kids, or somewhere in the blur of growing up.

    But now, as the movie plays on and Bellamy leans closer to whisper something to Will, all Mike can do is think about it.

     

    Or, after the end of the world, Mike Wheeler thinks he’s managed to go back to normal. Even if Eleven is gone. Even if Hawkins will never be the same.
    Until Will makes a new friend and Mike realizes he can’t outrun forever the feelings that follow.

    Summary

    Слишком резкие, слишком импульсивные, чужие друг для друга, как всегда и мечтали.
    Собственный разум играет злую шутку, крутя в голове одни и те же мысли, одно и то же имя, врезающееся в память с противным скрежетом. Отстранился быстрее, чем ожидалось, как будто их связь ничего не значила. Если насколько безразлично, почему задевает до самых краёв?

    Summary

    He’s aware, distantly, that something about this isn’t right; Mike has never been so open with his touches, so willing to give Will even just a fraction of the affection that he wants. Will’s been fine with it – has forced himself to be fine with it, to be grateful for the minimal attention Mike gives him – but now that he has Mike’s fingers gently scratching his scalp, he can’t stop himself from leaning into the touch.

    It’s wrong, probably – and definitely selfish – of Will to take advantage of Mike when he’s obviously not in his right mind; he feels guilt claw in his stomach just as readily as butterflies flutter, and he can’t help but let himself have this one thing, these gentle touches among an apocalypse, a bit of tenderness in a world that has only ever been harsh to Will.

    Will has a chat with Mike...from another universe. (missing scene from the other fic in this series!)

    Summary

    Fourteen months ago, the world ended.

    Or at least, Eddie's did.

    Make no mistake, he made it out alive. The bats didn't get the best of him as much as they had tried to, but when the rifts in Hawkins cracked open and the Ghouls began to appear, Eddie's world as he had known it was well and truly ripped apart.

    Because... well because... Eddie hasn't seen Steve since.

    Summary

    Eddie is still completely naked.

    Steve thumbs his cheekbones, sighs to himself and tries to get it together. ‘Let’s get you dressed, yeah?’

    Eddie cocks his head, up blinks and then seems to mimic what Steve thinks is his own expression.

    A fond, tired smile.

    Steve chuckles, shakes his head.

    Another stray, he thinks, though his heart has other ideas.

    After Vecna is (temporarily) defeated and Eddie Munson survives, Eddie moves in with Steve and some of his friends as Hawkins prepares for the battle that they know is coming. Living together makes them safer, sure, but it also has unforeseen consequences.
    And it seems Vecna isn't done cursing kids in Hawkins.

    Summary

    Jonathan knew it was a problem that he was missing large chunks of his entire (albeit short) childhood and couldn't properly explain what made him panic. But having someone there when he reached the other side, that was far more than he ever expected.
