Summary
The summer is coming to an end, and as the weather begins to change, so does life for Charles and Erik. Erik's starting a new job, Charles is starting a new season at the daycare and life can't get more domestic than looking at real estate listings on lazy Sunday mornings while arguing over which Farmer's Market to visit. A crisis at the daycare, however, proves that Charles doesn't do anything in halves. Suddenly house-hunting and a longer commute are the least of Erik's problems and he and Charles are forced to make some hasty decisions about the future of their relationship. (Also, Tony meets Steve, Steve meets Charles, and Charles' mother meets Erik.)

Summary
If you had asked Steve Harrington five years ago what he would be doing after high school, he would have believed wholeheartedly that he would be following in the path his father laid out before him. At age 20, however, Steve found himself breaking free of the mould he had been raised to fit.
His closest friends were a bunch of nerdy children he babysat, the girl he had thought he was going to marry had broken up with him (and he was glad she did), he had been rejected from every university he applied to, he was working a minimum wage job, and he was fresh off the back of his third near-apocalypse.
With the Spring Break of '86 on the horizon, Steve can't help but let himself feel hopeful. After all, how much worse can things get?or
Stranger Things 4, but Steve is an active protagonist who finds himself falling in love with Eddie Munson, of all people, as the world begins to end yet again.
or or
The characters of Stranger Things rewritten with (hopefully) realistic emotional responses to their trauma, growth, communication (except for when they're idiots), and agency.

Summary
“I didn’t know you smoked.” Eddie looks at him tentatively.
“Didn’t until ‘86,” Steve answers, letting the feeling of the cigarette between his fingers anchor him into reality.
“I see a lot has changed for you in ‘86.” Steve snorts, still not returning Eddie’s fixed gaze.
“Are you just going to ignore me for the rest of the night?”

Steve Harrington's Guide To Planning a Party (Without Blowing Up) by Anonymous
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
In a way, Steve was kind of grateful for the swift intervention.
He knew now, after all, that most people in the world didn't have the ability to pick out people's emotions, and in a town like Hawkins he wouldn't have lasted long if he commented on every feeling he encountered. It was the reason why despite everything, he had turned out normal, despite all of life's attempts to turn him into something other than a popular somewhat dim-witted jock.And then one day he’d walked into the Byers household and been slapped in the face with the most godawful aura he'd ever experienced in his life, and he just knew he wasn’t going to be coming back from this.
or:
Steve has secret powers, which isn't really an issue except he's now dealing with his unexpected feelings(tm) for one Eddie Munson and suddenly things just got a lot more complicated. Also, he has the nasty habit of blowing shit up when he gets stressed which makes the whole 'secret' part of his powers hard.
The situation is totally and completely under his control, he just has to plan this stupid 'We saved the world (again)' party and he should be fine.
Totally fine.Series

10 Ways Link can make it up to that Divine Beast on his own by TheMagicianPosts

Summary
Based on Kleric’s video; “10 ways Link can make it up to that divine beast on his own”, We follow Link in his endeavours to prove to Revali how far spite can really take a man.
“Maybe we should just settle this one on one—But where…? Oh, I know...! How about up there?!”
Revali pointed his wing towards the ship parading the skies. Vah Medoh gleams in the distance. He spat at him with malice.
“Oh, you must pardon me—I forgot you have no way of making it up to that Divine Beast on your own!”
Whatever Revali said after fell onto deaf ears. That Pompous Rito needed to learn what flightless really meant, if he truly wanted a battle in the skies, Link would give him just that. There was a reason he was considered Hylia's chosen.
It was not his merit within combat that gifted him the title of hero but his fearless, albeit reckless, courage, and unfortunately, Link did not understand what limits were. His courageous spirit that possessed him had travelled through time, traversed the dark dimensions between, and defeated the demon known to all as Ganon however many times as needed.
How bad could a little flight up an oversized mechanical Cucco be?

It can’t be that bad, he thinks. There’s no way he would have done that. But the doubt still lingers, turning into full-blown anxiety as he scrolls down his twitter feed, finally arriving on his latest tweet.
Lan WangJi ✔ @lan_wangji
Some of you have never fallen in love with a boy only for him to go missing after his parents die and pine away for three years waiting for him to come back, then continue to pine when he’s back after you realize you’re too scared to confess, and it shows.

Summary
An ill-fated parent teacher conference reunites Jin Ling's wayward uncle with Sizhui's father. AKA: A matchmaking disaster as told by Jin Ling, Sizhui, and Jingyi.
Jin Ling knows he’s in deep trouble even before reporting to Headmaster Lan’s office, but the words “your uncle will be here soon” still strike the fear of God in him. His only consolation is that Jingyi and Sizhui’s guardians are also in the office, Jingyi’s mom already lecturing her sheepish-looking son. Lan-ayi only stops when Sizhui’s father, a quiet and tall man in white, clears his throat, causing her to engage him in one-sided smalltalk.
This is a disaster. Jin Ling had spent such a nice break at home for Mid-Autumn Festival, and Fairy’s presence had soothed his homesickness after returning to boarding school in Gusu. He knows pets aren’t allowed, but who is going to report Jin Ling when his father pays good money for a private suite in the dorms? Then there was the incident with Jingyi, a box of mooncakes, and a door left ajar. Long story short, he spent an hour chasing Fairy down the halls with Sizhui and Jingyi before finding his dog nosing up to a very angry Headmaster Lan.

Summary
"I am a shadow..."
Beginning this year, all heroics students will take a new, one day course called "Shadow Training" during their first year. With a few teachers for assistance, the class will descend into the shadow realm to confront their shadows. A shadow is the manifestation of all the parts of yourself you hide. By confronting these parts of themselves, students will eliminate any darkness within themselves that could lead them from the path of a true hero. Course taught by Judgement Hero Umbra (Himeyo Maki), but other teachers (including each class's homeroom teacher) will act as assistants and guides within the shadow realm itself while Umbra keeps watch outside.
This fic will be updated once per week on Tuesday. It's going to be long! It's a passion project made by several wonderful people. We hope you enjoy!

Maybe after tonight he’ll think they’re better off as friends, or just not spending time together at all, maybe he’ll- No way, Tadashi, we’re not going there, he tells himself firmly. He’s always had those little worries in the back of his head, telling him all about how he could never be good enough, but in the end Tsukki chose him, right? This’ll be fine.
