    Summary

    November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.

    / or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.

    Summary

    “Hey,” he says, loud enough for Jonathan to hear him.

    Jonathan jerks a little, like he’s not used to being addressed, and looks over at him. “What?”

    Eddie rolls his toothpick around with his tongue, choosing his words carefully. Not carefully enough, though, it seems, because the next words that drop out of his fat mouth are:

    “How long has your brother had a thing for the Wheeler kid?”

    (Or: The one where Eddie becomes to Will what Steve is to Dustin.)

    Summary

    Soul flowers aren’t a ticket to true love, he knows that well enough, but they do mean importance, significance, permanence. And so far no one has ever loved Steve significantly or permanently enough to leave some. Maybe that means he’s broken. Maybe that’s why he can’t leave any for her.

    So Steve lets Jonathan take Nancy home that night, and tries not to feel too bitter about the matching bracelet of roses on Jonathan’s hand.

    Summary

    Mike doesn't know when he started caring why Steve and Eddie are friends now, but Dustin has made him curious. Eddie and Steve were enemies before, sort of. So why are they now best friends? They've just got to do a bit of surveillance to work this puzzle out. If Mike accidentally finds out he has feelings for his best friend along the way then... well, shit.

    “At least I’m not using binoculars.” Mike shoots a derisive look over at Dustin. “Like we’re not in the middle of the high street, if they spot us how are you going to explain away those, huh?”

    “Bird watching,” says Dustin. “My new hobby.”

    Lucas punches him on the arm. “God you’re so fucking stupid.”

    “You gave them to me!”
