Summary
In the smoldering ruins of the MAC-Z, Will Byers unlocks a dark, latent power during a desperate bid to save his friends from certain death. In doing so, a door is opened that can never be shut.
Corruption creeps in with every use, twisting his mind and body, turning him into the perfect host for a monster that had claimed him as a child. Terrified he’s unraveling from the inside out, Will fights to hold on—even as the line between boy and monster begins to blur.
But there is one person who can see him, the real him. There is one person who still knows exactly who he is, and that person refuses to let him go.
Or: a story about power, possession, and devotion. A story where victory comes at a terrible cost, and a story where even in victory, the shadows in Hawkins hide something far, far worse.

Summary
He'd screamed back at Ben only once, mourning sharp and fresh on both their breaths against each others faces only inches from each other, desperate for him to understand that Peter wished it had been himself on that pavement divinely punished for an argument he could hardly even remember but would gladly die for if it meant May would have walked and how he still wished he were dead day after day because to see her empty shoes untouched upon the doorstep was worse than dying and he'd kill himself a thousand times to bring her back but how dare he suggest that Peter would be happier any other way than with them both.
And Ben had slapped him, then—and Peter thinks for the first time that perhaps he had lost them both after all.
---Aunt May goes after Peter that night, and neither Peter nor Ben were quite the same after that. Good and evil are just words. Monster. Martyr. Mortal. Other nouns and adjectives that don't really mean anything at all. Peter is like a definition. Ben is a passing thought. Tony Stark is an exclamation point.
And life is one big, glaring question mark.

Summary
Xie Lian wasn’t even sure who he was being sacrificed to, this time. In the past, it was almost always shared—overheard before the knife plunged, for example. But tonight, he was on a cold altar, waiting for the eventual end, and had roughly no idea why the mortals were so scared, so nervous, yet so relieved. On the other hand, he had never been granted the sight of something so beautiful before his slaughter—the wings of a silver butterfly danced right over his face, and landed gently on his nose, where blood slowly dripped. Xie Lian thought it was a very precious goodbye. Or apology, maybe. He found that he didn’t mind.
(or: xie lian is sacrificed to one of crimson rain sought flower’s temples. the aftermath is certainly something.)

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”
