Summary
After a narrow escape from the Upside Down, it's hard to find your footing.
Or: Steve Harrington deals with his terrible parents, Robin Buckley refuses to leave her best friend to fend for himself, and Eddie Munson simply will not stop lending Steve his clothes for no reason Steve can see.
(Or: Steve cares too hard and too deeply to not have someone else care the same way about him. Everyone knows this except, apparently, for Steve.)

Summary
“You’re doing what?” Keeley asks, her voice tinny because Jamie put her on speaker. It’s a video call, but Roy can’t see her face, because he’s too busy standing ankle-deep in water and cursing.
“He said he’s fixing my pipes,” Jamie confides.
“Is that a euphemism?” Keeley asks.
It's not.
*
Or: When Jamie's house gets flooded, Roy embarks on a mission to teach him some important life skills. For some reason, Jamie seems less than appreciative.

Summary
“It’ll take two seconds,” Higgins says. “I like to keep up to date with all the players, you know. I just thought, well, you moved recently. And your emergency contact.”
He pauses here, and Jamie raises an eyebrow. His emergency contact? He’d probably filled out some joke response last time, hadn’t he. Fucking Queen of England, Boris Johnson’s wife, something good.
“Oi, let’s see it then,” and Higgins passes over the paper like it’s a live bomb, and Jamie scans down to where he sees his own handwriting sitting over a few dotted lines, and, well. It sure ain’t the Queen.
or: Jamie goes through a series of unfortunate events, changes his emergency contact a few times, and considers the possibility that maybe, actually, letting other people help isn’t all bad after all.

Summary
“Yeah,” Jamie drawls in that soft voice, and if Coach Ted’s voice is peanut butter, she thinks Jamie’s must be honey. “It ain’t your fault, Phoebe. And I don’t think your Uncle Roy meant for you to hear what he said ‘bout your dad. But it’s kinda like that, see. No one wants me dad to come to our matches either.”
“But you want him to show up sometimes too?”
Jamie looks down at their clasped hands. “Sometimes. It’s complicated.”
