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
Phil Callahan never meant to play the role of responsible adult, but when he of all people clocks that Steve Harrington needs one, he begrudgingly steps up.
Too bad the gig comes bundled with local chaos gremlin and suspected lawn flamingo thief, Eddie Munson.

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
Together, they turned to stare at Harrington, who had hunched further into himself now that Eddie was gone from the table.
“If he turns on us I’m blaming you.” Gareth grumbled finally, and tried not to let the smile that broke out on Eddie’s face effect him.
“Glad to hear you’re on board, Garebear.” Eddie said, patting his shoulder hard.
AKA the entirety of Hellfire, prompted by one Eddie, “herder of misfits, freaks and geeks” decide to expand their circle to adopt a jock instead.

Summary
Steve this, Steve *that*—Eddie’s had enough of his newest sheepies’ hero worship of the guy, and it all comes to a head when they’re distracted at the most sacred of events: Hellfire. Apparently his majesty is under the weather—time to storm the castle and end their serfdom.
(Jokes on Eddie, because one look at sickly, pathetic Harrington has him ripping up his Munson doctrine faster than you can say ‘m’lord)

Summary
Graduation is on the horizon, and Eddie is determined to go out with a bang: Gen Con here we come, baby!
Only, nerd shit cost *real* shit, and the Hellfire Club is forced to reckon with raising funds for their dreams in a more legal and balefully pedestrian way: a bake sale.
Eddie’s already put his blood, swear, and tears into the club, what’s a little dignity for the greater good?
(His dignity goes fully out the window when Steve Harrington shows up in a much too tight Hellfire shirt.)

Summary
In which Eddie stands ranting on a cafeteria table, and Steve, fed up with life, rants back.

Summary
Santa Clause isn't real.
The North Pole doesn't look like it does on the TV specials, and if it did, elves would be short, jolly beings covered head to toe in themed outfits.
(Except Santa is real and the North Pole does look pretty magical. Steve knows, because Steve's last name might be Harrington, but his mother's last name is Clause--and just because she rejected her roots doesn't mean he does.)

Summary
Eddie doesn't know what's going to kill him first: a military invasion, evil demon flower dogs, or Steve Harrington's painted on jeans.
Either way, his faked heterosexuality isn’t making it out alive.
OR: Eddie Munson has a very bad, no good, terrible day trying to survive in the dead Chief of Police’s abandoned cabin with the Hellfire Club, The Party, and Steve “Most Slappable Ass” Harrington.

Summary
Rumors of Steve’s pending engagement threaten to splinter the post-Vecna bliss with a harsh dose of reality:
1. Steve Harrington is nothing more than a bargaining chip to his parents.
2. His friends can’t relate, or worse, don’t understand.
3. The most unlikely of people can show up in your corner. -

Summary
Wayne repays his debts. Never missed a payment, never been late in his life. So when Hopper calls up out of the blue with a favor?
Well, he’s built up quite the debt for getting Eddie out of trouble.
He just didn’t expect payment in the form of babysitting one Steve Harrington, battered, bloody and hunted after the mall fire.
So long a he can keep everyone safe—Steve (from the people hunting him), Eddie (from himself), and his own damn self (from a house full of teenagers), he can keep his perfect record as a man who repays his debts.

Summary
Valentine's is a cursed day, made for the perpetually single and broken hearted. Hawkin's yearly charity auction, which offers up a chance to go on a "date" with everyone from the mayor to local heroes, is just one more way to make the capitalistic nightmare holiday, worse.
Luckily for one Eddie Munson, fate, nosy children, and sheer spite have earned him a one way ticket for the Steve Harrington Date Experience.
Like many of cupids victims, Eddie Munson never knew what hit him.

Summary
““You think Harrington and the kids are wrapped up in some kind of crazy conspiracy that's eating them all alive and because you have a compulsive desire to solve every mystery put in front of you, you can’t leave it alone. This is starting to become something you should really like, work on man.”
“You need to drop out of that AP psychology class.” Eddie demands with a sniff. “It’s rotting your brain.”
AKA
15 days before Christmas, Steve Harrington flinches when the lights strung along the arcade flicker.
20 days after New Years, he almost takes Eddie's head off with a frying pan.
In-between, they start becoming friends.
(And after, they become something more.)

Summary
People have an odd habit of beating the ever loving shit out of him before deciding he's their alpha.
A part of Steve knows that's really not how things are supposed to go, but then, when has anything in his life gone the way it should?
At least Eddie only threatened him with a bottle.
(An urban fantasy/werewolf AU wherein Eddie is constantly boggled at the fact that Steve Harrington, of all people, not only leads a Pack of completely dysfunctional children -and one teenage, band geek witch- but also seems to have decided Eddie is ALSO one of his.
Worse, he kinda likes it.)

Summary
Red Alert's a security risk. Likely the worst one the Autobots had. A weapon, just waiting for the right Decepticon to figure out how to use--and Inferno could no longer be kept at his side, 24/7.
So he knew it was coming. Long before Ratchet called him into his office, sat him down. Gave him an overview that showed just how bad things had gotten. The truth Red Alert hadn’t wanted to see, but made himself face anyway.
As carefully as a medic could, Ratchet laid down the invisible bomb between them.
They were going to give him another sparkmate.

Summary
“We were just having fun.” Atomizer says, but the words have a thread of doubt in them, one that widens as Trailbreaker doesn’t get up.
“Fun you are ruining.” Getaway snarls, plating flared and spike swinging as he takes an aggressive step forward.
And yeah, Whirl is definitely gonna cut it off.
