    Summary

    What do you call someone who you share your every thought with, who knows the deepest feelings in your soul, who has seen below the surface, seen you ugly and naked and angry and sad, who sat with you for hours and hours, who endured torture in a Russian bunker, far below the earths surface, with you? What do you call that?

    Summary

    They’re quiet, then, breathing in each other’s exhaled air and exchanging it with their own. It would be romantic, if it was 1985. If Steve hadn’t yet known the feeling of taking a punch by a man trained to throw them. If Steve was still a puppet of a person, too big for the body he was born into yet too small to try to crawl out of it.

    But it’s not, of course. It’s 1987, and he still sees the swirls of the Starcourt ceiling when he closes his eyes. It’s 1987, and he still cries when Back To The Future comes on.

    It’s 1987, and his best friend is leaving for college in the morning.

    -

    Or, wouldn't it be funny if this was the last night Steve and Robin ever talked?

    Summary

    "I need you to train me."

    He's pretty sure his brain just malfunctioned. 

    "Me? I- I don't know how any of your..." he gestures at her wildly, "how your magic juju works."

    "It's not magic."

    "Same difference. I don't know shit about it."

    She huffs, frustrated, bouncing on her feet with anger, a teenager again. An annoyed teenager, at that. God, no wonder she and Dustin are friends. 

    "It's not that. It's... Lucas said... Lucas said you helped him train. For his basketball trials last year."

    ********

    Or:

    Eleven asks Steve for help training to beat the obstacle course. Enter: Coach Harrington. Turns out they have way more in common than they expected.

    Summary

    My attempt at a hypothetical season 5, telling the tale of the survivors returning to Hawkins and preparing for the final showdown to close the gates for good. Themes are a bit more adult than some may be used to.

    Summary

    Steve's love for Robin is not quiet. Neither is hers. The two are a chaotic mix of sarcasm, gentle touches, late-nights talks, shared, trauma, and love. As the two navigate life as adults they must also look within themselves and navigate the new revelations and changes that result simply from growing up.
