    Summary

    It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.

    Steve fails. They lose.

    “Steve, how many loops have you been through?”

    His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.

    “I lost count.”

    AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

    Summary

    They stayed like that until the song faded out to silence (for it was now one in the morning and the station was off-air, not that either of them noticed), and he then lifted his head to look the older man in the eye, and there was that unreadable expression again. Jeremy felt his stomach drop down into his gut; his mouth went dry, but he was still able to utter one word.

    “Stay.”

    ---

    OR, tired with parenthood and lonely, Jeremy asks Mick to stay during a bout of drunken stupour and, for some reason, he does. Featuring repressed emotions, domestic behaviour, a shit ton of sexual tension, and the past coming back to bite people in the arse.

    Summary

    About half a year following the events of 'Running Blind', Scout makes good on his offer to bring Sniper to visit his family in Boston during the holidays. Sniper agrees, and family shenanigans ensue.

    Things end up going about as well as they usually do for Scout.

    [Will contain many references to concepts detailed in Running Blind, so it's suggested to read that before diving into this one.]

    Summary

    Working under RED can be repetitive at times - but nothing like this.

    After a curse is fired his way, Scout is forced to live through the same day over and over and over again.

    It should be easy for someone as perfect as Scout to break the curse, right?

    As long as he doesn't have to confront the things he's been feeling towards Sniper it should be a piece of cake!
