    Summary

    “I called your mom, by the way,” he says. “Told her I was picking you up.”

    “Are you taking me back?” Dustin asks, nervously. He didn’t really consider that calling Steve to pick him up might involve Steve dropping him off back to Hawkins. He really doesn’t want to be there right now, he feels too much, everything is too much, too big, the future looming over him feels too intimidating.

    “Not yet,” Steve says, and Dustin lets out a relieved breath. “I told her we can put you up for the night and then tomorrow we can figure out what to do, yeah?”

    Dustin looks at him, the kind slope of his mouth, the worried lines on his forehead. He suddenly feels bad for upending Steve’s life like this. Surely he had plans for the day, maybe work or school, something he had to do that now has been interrupted by needing to save Dustin, again, but from himself rather than from alternate dimension monsters.

    “Sorry, Steve.”

    or,

    It's senior year, and Dustin is having a hard time coping with everything. He runs away to Indianapolis in search of the comfort only his two best friends can give him, not knowing what he'll find when he gets to the other side.

    Summary

    Jonathan turns into a famous photographer, however he took more photos during the late 80s and early 90s. Photos of his family. These photos featured queerness at their center and could not be published. Now, some years in the future these stories can be told, so he publishes them in a book with the writing of Nancy.

    This is that book, this is their story

    Summary

    Sometimes it takes a coughing plague of black flower petals to realize you're in love with the nerdy metalhead you fought alongside at the end of the world.

    There's no way Eddie loves him back, right? (a.k.a Steve needs to learn that he's deserving of love)

    Such a good Hanahaki AU! I’m a huge fan of when writers use the canon stuff to make Hanahaki happen, like they did by making it Upside Down-related in this fic.

    Summary

    It looks like all the other notebooks in the pile. Another cheap composition book with a speckled black-and-white cover. Maybe a bit more weathered than the rest. The pages are well-thumbed. Eddie’s handwriting is a thick black scrawl, right from the start. Like his thoughts are too fast to be caught and fixed for good.

    This one is so fun, I love how the author wrote Eddie and his musings.
    Really feels like an actual diary!

    Summary

    What if Steve started to lose his hearing after getting beat up by Jonathan Byers back in s1? Watch the progression of hearing loss and Steve's reaction to it as he learns how to navigate a world he can no longer hear.

    Or - a sorry excuse to write some Steve fluff.
