    Summary

    “Why are you out here alone?” Ilya asks. “Who left you here?”

    Hesitantly, Shane’s eyes cast up at the apartment building. Ilya follows his gaze, confused.

    “I’m sorry,” Shane says softly, “I went home with someone.”

    Ilya’s head snaps in his direction. “What?”

    Summary

    Steve has always been turned on by fear. For as long as he can remember. He’s not even sure when or why it started, just that the adrenaline rush of fear registers the same as arousal for him. The drop that forms knots in the pit of his stomach. Steve doesn’t have butterflies, just that swoop of fear, the second of free falling, of flying, before reality sets in.

    He is falling. He is terrified. He is so, so turned on.

    He has seen the altar before, but never this close. It’s a stone slab about as big as a bed, with one anchor point at the top, for the manacles at his wrists, and a second, lower down, to secure his collar to the altar. It doesn’t matter that he chose this, because everyone tried to run, apparently, no matter how much they thought they were going to stay. They all tried to run.

    OR Steve sacrifices himself on the altar of a god and gets a lot more than he bargained for. like. a LOT more.

    Summary

    Hello. If you are hearing this message, the ship has disconnected from the network. Please reboot your system and consult the manual.

    Steve doesn’t know how many times he’s heard that message already. He’s too busy staring out the window of Starship Hawkins at the remains of what had been his crew’s shuttle. Well, not exactly his crew. He’d only been put aboard the Starship Hawkins three days before mission launch. Some people he knew from the academy, but most of them he was still learning their names. And now he was staring out the port window at a fireball.

    - Please reboot your system and consult the manual.

    “Oh my god! Shut up!” he screams and slams his fists against the windows, barely shaking the fortified glass.

    Summary

    “There was a fire. At the mall. I worked there? At Scoops Ahoy.”

    The way he says the last part sounds strange, like it’s really important somehow that Eddie believes him.

    “Okay,” he says, then adds, “Is that why you look like that?”

    Eddie’s never met a fire with fists, but he wants Steve to tell him what happened—not just assume.

    There’s a beat of silence, like Steve’s weighing his options, and Eddie knows a lie’s coming before Steve even opens his mouth.

    “Yeah. Building caved in. We made it out—Robin and I. Paramedics checked me over and said I couldn’t drive, so I decided to walk.”

    Almost ten miles, Eddie estimates. Sure. Totally normal thing to do in the middle of the night, battered and bruised, after escaping a fire.

    But he’s pretty sure that’s all he’s going to get, so he settles on, “Good thing I came along, then.”

    “Yeah.”

    -------------------------------------------

    Eddie doesn’t expect to find Steve Harrington half-dead on a dark road in the middle of the night — or to be the one he clings to after.

    The last time Ginger saw Black Beauty, she'd said, "I wish the end was come, I wish I was dead. I have seen dead horses, and I am sure they do not suffer pain."
