    Summary

    Years later, after he’s lost count of the dead children bleeding in arenas, after the Capital has forgotten the war they’re avenging. Years later, he’ll think it’s so fitting. Sejanus will curl into silk sheets. Lucy Gray stretched out across from him - the monstrous boy they love in between them. His wife down the hall.

    He’ll recall the whispers, the people who once sneered at him who now flinch back. Snow’s songbird, and his loyal dog.

    -

    Or Lucy Gray and Sejanus Plinth are a little bit more clever, and they know exactly who the boy they love too much is. It saves their lives, but it doesn’t mean this is a kinder story. Just a different sort of tragedy.

    Summary

    Everyone's moved away from Hawkins, it's just Eddie and Steve and Keith (of all people). The kids don't have time to be calling their old babysitters while they're off living their lives, and Robin keeps calling and urging them to move, to come and see her and get the fuck out of Hawkins. It takes Keith running to Oklahoma and a Blondie song to get Steve on the move.

    “Keith is leaving. He’s going to fucking Oklahoma for a managerial position at fucking Family Video. That is an objectively shit life, serving the gods of Family Video, right? But if I stay here in fucking Hawkins Family Video, I’m doing worse than Keith!” He runs a hand through his hair. Eddie’s face is bewildered and oil spattered. “Keith is getting out. I’ll be fucking dead before Keith leaves me to rot here like everyone else. We are going on the road, Eddie.”

    “The road?” Steve thinks his tone is sounding more awed than confused now, like Steve is some fascinating species from D&D he absolutely needs to know everything about, right now. It’s been a long time since Eddie’s looked like that.

    “Your band. We’ll kidnap Gareth, community college makes him depressed he’ll get over it.” He waves a hand.

    Summary

    They say love is a bridge between two people. How, then, do two very different people, from entirely different worlds, think to start?

    Brick by brick, board by board, and memory by memory...

    ...some bridges are easier to build than others.

    Why would a Gryffindor and a Slytherin ever fall in love? Why indeed.
