Summary
The engine dies so quickly that at first Jonathan thinks they’ve lost power again. Then he suspects it’s some kind of animal, a stray cat, and that Steve’s just done an emergency stop to avoid hitting it.
Except Steve’s not looking out the front. He’s turned to the side, frozen.
“No,” he says. It’s quiet, almost calm. Like he’s objecting to something that’s just flat out wrong, impossible.

Summary
If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.
Or: The year is 1992; and Steve Harrington meets a monster, has a breakdown, fistfights a government official in a Wendy’s parking lot, and gets an unmarked post-card — not necessarily in that order.
Or: a buddy comedy that’s also a nightmare that’s also a love story.

Summary
When Nancy tells Steve about Eleven, he starts searching the woods every single day to find her. He doesn’t know if she’ll recognize him- it’s been years since he escaped the lab- but the thought that his little sister could still be out there, cold and alone and starving, hurts more than he can say.
He finds the cabin by accident.
OR
How Hopper ends up adopting two super-powered kids who wind up saving the world at least once every year.

Summary
“Sorry, little brother,” he says. His thumbs trace the muscles in his neck. “You know. It was a neat trick. But I’m afraid you just aren’t that special, in the end.”
Or: In a world where after Eight escapes, and before Eleven, another child makes it out of the lab.

Summary
He thinks about the relief in Eddie’s voice when he said he had a hunch about Steve’s whereabouts, like Dustin is the chosen one for understanding what makes Steve tick. Eddie’s joked about it before; he’d called it “sibling telepathy” when Dustin had silently communicated his popcorn order at the movies, and he’d nudged Steve in the ribs when Steve’s nose wrinkled meaning Gross, dude. Then Steve had huffed a laugh, nudging Dustin back. Okay, okay. I’ll pay for it, you little shit.
But Eddie gets Steve, too, Dustin thinks; that’s why he called him. And yeah, it’s different than the way Dustin understands Steve, but it’s significant enough for Eddie to make the cut of Steve Harrington Interpreters in Dustin’s mind.
