Summary
Soulmates are destined by design and sacred by tradition; but they're not beyond interference.
With enough intent, a soulmate's mark can be hijacked by another; an act so vile it rivals murder itself. And yet, history records a dangerous truth: forming a soul bond, even a stolen one, can save a life if completed before death.
So when Eddie Munson, bleeding out in the Upside Down, asks for the unthinkable, Steve Harrington nods once and presses his bloody palm to the mark on Eddie’s neck. It saves Eddie’s life.
It also binds Steve to him forever.
(“Why did you do it?”
“Why did you ask me to?”) -

Summary
It’s Hallmark-movie-and–holiday-bullshit season, and Eddie Munson is forced to watch a Christmas horror story play out in real time: Nancy Wheeler, his platonic soulmate and chronically single partner in crime, is stranded in her quaint little hometown.
He’s seen enough seasonal rom-coms to know exactly what’s coming. No way is he letting some flannel covered farm boy trap his best friend in a heteronormative yuletide nightmare!
Eddie takes it upon himself to Grinch the entire holiday. But instead of saving Nancy, Steve Harrington thaws his frozen heart instead.

Summary
Wheeljack opens Brainstorms confiscated briefcase, thinking it's an old experiment of his own. Instead, he gets tossed back in time, right before Starscream is placed on a very public trial for the murder of his scientific exploration partner, Skyfire.
His past self sympathized but stayed out of it. That Wheeljack was on the fast track to becoming one of Sentinel’s top scientists, closely watched, and quietly warned that a single misstep could jeopardize his future.
The Wheeljack that spent the majority of his life as the Autobot's chief of engineering, and knows Starscream’s sentencing plays a huge part in igniting the war?
He’s interfering.

Summary
The bills won’t pay themselves, and with no options left, Eddie calls up some shady contacts and takes a job he should’ve run far away from. The gig's simple enough: recover the car, keys, and class ring belonging to the late Steve Harrington, out of the wreckage of the Starcourt Mall fire.
Problem is that Steve isn't dead--and Eddie knows it.
Steve has a long list of things he’d rather do than crawl back into Starcourt. Dental surgery maybe, or spontaneous combustion. But his car is on the line, and given Munson's stubborn inability to stay safe on his own?
Back down the rabbit hole Steve goes.
Now if only the lights would stop flickering...

Summary
A space bridge accident strands both Optimus Prime and Starscream on an unknown planet, filled with mechanical monsters. Once Starscream decides that immediately stabbing Optimus in the back is a bad idea, the two form an uneasy alliance. Just until they can get off this hostile world.
But cooperation breeds grudging appreciation (and even more grudging attraction). Each uncovered secret on this mystery world brings them closer to returning to endless war. Can they keep fighting as if nothing has changed? Or will they take the chance for something new?
Assuming the planet doesn’t deactivate them first.

Summary
“Rocky not explain question?” asked Adrian slowly.
“Busy,” said Rocky, sheepish.
“Had four years on ship.”
“Busy then too.”
Adrian skittered back and forth, which I think equated to a human throwing both hands up in exasperation. “With what question?”
“Science!”
“Whole time science question? Four years!”
“Is much science in universe!”--
Rocky has neglected to explain some very important cultural context to Grace.
