Summary
"Can I ask, then," Hisirdoux continued softly, "why do you come back here if it's not what you're looking for?"
Aja sits silent for a moment, thinking. "I guess..." she starts, glancing back up, "I stopped caring whether or not these were real, because the things that are real are much, much scarier."
— or: Sometimes, in a world devoid of hope, it falls on us to create our own. -

Summary
“Please, Doux. Don’t do this to me.” The amulet gleams with weakening sparks; Jim knows that it only has so much energy left to give to him. Still, he grips the artifact with vigor and sets his jaw. “I am not going back to the others without you. Do you hear me?”
— or: As Jim knows from his own experience, stalklings and storms don't mix well. He expects nothing different from this encounter, but he didn't count on Douxie getting caught in the crossfire.

Summary
"I recall you once asking yourself what kind of a hero you'd be if you sacrificed everyone else for your own sake. Yet here you are, tampering with a power you can't even comprehend, because that desire to play hero eclipsed any concern you could've had for the people you might be hurting in the process."
Douxie stops, inches away from Jim. His shoulders shake with barely contained fury. "Tell me, Jim. Who does that remind you of?"

You can put it all on me, you can laugh and you can bleed by steveharringtoned
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
Phil Callahan has made a large variety of strange arrests in his time working as a cop for Hawkins, Indiana. Daylight skinny-dippers; a small group of old ladies who’d attempted to rob the corner shop with their umbrellas, a guy who’d stolen a total of eighteen gnomes from his suburban neighborhood.
But pulling over Max Mayfield driving her brother’s Camaro at the ripe age of thirteen was pretty insane. Sure, kids will be kids and kids will be crazy. Until Steve Harrington crawled out of the backseat, clutched his knees and horror-movie hurled blood all over his boots and shit got crazier.
That took it from a minor concern to oh, fuck. Callahan has to take this kid to a hospital.

Summary
"Steve," he corrects.
"Steve?"
"I saved your life. Least you can do is call me by my name," he shrugs.
And Eddie laughs.
And Steve just thinks oh. Oh fuck.
(Or, Eddie is Steve Harrington's almost.)

And it's then, alone in the darkness, with no one to be quiet or careful for, that Steve drops the act.
(or Steve Harrington will act ok after nearly being eaten alive but he's not ok and his bff isn't either)

Road Looks Rough Ahead (We’ll See It Through) by aktura for stayaway99
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
26 Jun 2022

Summary
Now that Steve’s not bathed in the otherworldly light of the Upside Down, he looks fucking awful – nothing at all like when Dustin last saw him on the shore of Lovers’ Lake – and when Dustin grabs him by the shoulders and pushes him back down against the mattress, Steve doesn't put up a fight, which honestly does not make Dustin feel any better.
Or: It’s strange how fast things started to spiral once Steve began going on dates again, looking for that one perfect girl, and Dustin joined up with the Hellfire Club.
Or: In which two idiots have a long overdue talk about their feelings (or come as close to talking about their feelings as two idiots can manage).

The One in Which a Time Loop is Fucking Exhausting. by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.
Steve fails. They lose.
“Steve, how many loops have you been through?”
His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.
“I lost count.”
AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.
