Summary
Once a tight-knit brotherhood, the clones find themselves scattered across the galaxy. Echo, now a captive of the Techno Union, undergoes surgeries and interrogations as he tries to figure out a way to resist their efforts. Unaware that he is still alive, Rex finds himself concerned for his remaining ARC Fives, who has isolated himself on Kamino following their loss. Dogma meanwhile rises rapidly through the ranks, but struggles to command the respect of the other men due to his inexperience. Fox continues to keep secrets, but he finds that he may be juggling too many lies as the pressure of the war mounts. When Fives is given a solo recon mission to find out more about Death Watch links between the Separatists and spice muggling on Coruscant, his actions have consequences that reach as far as Coruscant.

Summary
During the Clone Wars, an ARC trooper found out too much. Naturally, he had to be taken out.
Only when it comes to Fives, things are never that simple.
Found to be Force-sensitive and uniquely gifted to cheat death, he is instead brainwashed into becoming an Inquisitor to serve the new Empire.But before that, he was one of the finest soldiers of the GAR.
Without Tomorrow is set in the days leading up to the Citadel Arc in TCW S3. Rex struggles with the relentless loss of war as he tries to look after his remaining men. Fox attempts to battle his own personal demons as he finds himself torn between Coruscant and his brothers. Dogma is excited to finally be deployed, but it isn't like how he'd imagined it to be at all. And Fives and Echo, the last surviving members of Domino Squad, know the price of war too well already. Coruscant seems like a good chance to recover from the latest campaign, but it isn't long before they're called to action again. Sent to Lola Sayu, the ARCs find themselves separated and forced to face their fears.

Summary
“Not into the whole superhero thing, then?” Steve asks Nancy.
“Of course she isn’t,” Jonathan mutters. “Nancy cares about real journalism.”
Steve raises his eyebrows. “And Spider-Man isn’t?”
“A man in tights swinging from webs?” Jonathan deadpans. “Definitely not, no.”
In which: Jonathan is the unfortunate Daily Bugle intern tasked with taking pictures of New York's new favorite superhero, Steve struggles with the trials and tribulations of maintaining a secret identity, and Nancy is just trying to do some actual goddamn investigative journalism for once.
Or, an au where Steve is Spider-Man.

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
“Don’t crack on me now, Munson,” Steve says.
“Aww,” Eddie replies, trying to make his tone its usual cloying flirtation, “didn’t think you cared, your highness.”
He twists his mouth up at the side. It doesn’t quite land on a smirk—he can feel the way it wobbles. If Harrington notices, he doesn’t call him on it.
With a roll of his eyes, Harrington responds, “like you said, no people means no help, means you’re all I’ve got.”
Or: Steve & Eddie get pulled into the Upside-Down and become reluctant allies. For survival.

Summary
It was really just his luck that a hulking monster lumbered out of the woods and directly onto his driveway. Just his luck that he threw enough parties when his parents were gone that the neighbors had long tuned out any noise that came from his yard. Just a nice cherry on top of the fucking cake that, even if anyone did hear him screaming when claws tangled in his jacket and pulled, Steve honestly wasn’t sure they’d have cared enough to bother anyway.
OR:
Months before El ripped open the gate at Hawkins Lab, the Demogorgon started ripping tears of its own. Months before it found Will Byers, it found Steve Harrington.
