Summary
"We need to talk," Lucas says quietly, breaking the silence after a long moment. He looks at Mike, his expression unreadable. "About what we saw. And what that thing knew."
Nancy meets Mike's eyes in the rear-view mirror. Her gaze is hard, questioning. Distrustful.
"Woah, woah!" Mike throws his hands up, nearly hitting Will as he recoils from their accusatory stares. The guilt is still burning in his chest, but defensiveness is a quicker shield. "Guys, I don't know what he was talking about! I thought the shadow was all in my head and lied about that, yes, but I'm not hiding anything else!"
OR: Mike's denial of his feelings for Will finally catches up to him as Vecna pulls out all the stops to ensure his plans come to fruition, hell-bent on disrupting the group's carefully maintained harmony.
Three weeks after Max's near-death and miraculous survival, the Party is unexpectedly dragged back into a world of nightmares. And this time, all of them getting out of this alive doesn't feel like it will be easy.
Not at all.

Summary
Vecna won, and Hawkins is fractured, the rifts leaving the town in disarray. No one would blame the residents for packing their things before the military prevents their escape. Unfortunately, our heroes do not have that choice.
How long will they be able to keep a grasp on any sense of normalcy? And what happens when the Upside Down begins to take its hold once more?

Summary
Margaret “Maggie” Bauman knows two things for certain: Hawkins never forgets, and dead things in this town have a bad habit of not staying gone.
1986 should have been calm after everything that happened. Instead, Maggie finds herself caught between old suspicions, unwanted attention, and a person who is making survival far more complicated than dying ever did.

Summary
This story is basically Billy’s perspective on his life in Hawkins and a little before that. I do use references from the Stranger Things book Runaway Max and from the show itself. The story starts at the Junkyard scene in season 2, then moves onto season 3 from Billy's POV, kidnapping for season 4, and finally, season 5 from Billy's, Steve's, Robin's, and Nancy's POV. What becomes of his life after that? Read and find out!
In this story, Billy has powers like El does. He also has a few medical episodes in a few chapters.
This is a warning for people who are squeamish about descriptive violence in later chapters. If you don’t like, there will be places you can skip to.
Seasons 2-5 used. This is my hot take. I don't put spoiler warnings on anything I write, purely because I don't care enough to. If you're consuming media when you haven't finished a show, that's honestly on you for spoiling for yourself. That being said, cheers and enjoy.

Summary
“You’re a real gentleman, huh?" Steve asks with a snort. "What do they say - best of luck to you meeting fate, but better luck to your soulmate?” It was an old saying you’d hear if someone wanted to suggest that you were a handful and your soulmate was in for a real challenge.
“Hey, I resent that!” Eddie grins. “I am a gentleman.”
“I stand corrected. You’re gonna make some fisherman’s daughter real happy some day.”
“Some fisherman’s daughter?” Eddie asks, laughing at the thought.
“Or fisherman’s son, whatever,” Steve says just as easily, chuckling while lifting the bottom of his shirt up again to wipe down the water rings on the bar top. Eddie chokes on his drink, averting his eyes from Steve’s newly exposed naval.

Summary
“But I’m not just doing this out of the kindness of my cynical little heart, Cunningham.”
Her eyes went wide and his smirk grew into a grin, “I want some reciprocity, Chrissy.”
“You do?” she swallowed, eyes still wide, hands now motionless but still gripped together, as she asked breathily, “What did you want… me to do?”
“Twenty-four hours.”
“What?” her eyes narrowed in confusion.
“If I’m gonna contaminate my very being by actually—” he mimed a dry heave and got a snicker out of her “—buying the fucking sheet music for a fucking Billy Joel song and learning it—"
“I already have the sheet music, you big baby,” she scoffed but he could see the tiny smile twitching at the corners of her mouth.
“Yeah, but I’m still gonna be tarnishing my reputation for you. So, I want twenty-four hours of your complete and absolute obedience.”
“Obedience?”
Based on a Tumblr prompt where Eddie strikes at deal with Chrissy but didn’t bother to read the fine print. What’s even worse is that he’s the one that wrote the fine print…
