Summary
A catalogue of drabbles and missing scenes of variable canonicity to the 'You Can't Catch Me'-verse. Some of these were written with the intent to be canon to that larger story, while others weren't, and some were simply an earlier iteration of story beats. Each chapter will be tagged accordingly.
Includes: poly pack, Michael being pure of heart and dumb of ass, vampire worldbuilding, and more!

Summary
Steve is a doe every young buck is sniffing out this year. Eddie is just such a young buck in the middle of the spring rut.
The brain cells might be a tad lacking when you replace grey matter for a pair of antlers.

Summary
A sex tape is…crazy. It’s totally crazy. It wouldn’t work, and it's worse than any of Steve’s other ideas because…well, because Steve is straight. And hopeful. And stupid.
It wouldn’t work.
“No way,” Eddie says. “I’m not gonna make a fucking sex tape.”
Steve leans down, gets in his face. Eddie’s breath hitches.
“Why not?” Steve asks. “You scared?”
In the months following Vecna's death, Eddie is facing triple murder charges and a lifetime in jail. With Dr. Owens gone off the grid and a town that hates him, that plea deal his lawyer offers him is looking pretty sweet.
Enter Steve Harrington, who is having none of that.

Summary
Steve is dying, but what hurts the most is watching how it's affecting his family, his friends, everyone around him.
Nothing seems to be helping - not his community rallying around him, not magic itself, and not the devoted attention of Eddie Munson. Eddie is a rock and a hurricane in Steve's life. Steve might also be a little bit in love with him.
Then, one day when all other options run out, Eddie introduces him to one Billy Hargrove, and Steve's already-screwed-up life might be taking a turn.
But is it for the better or for the more dangerous?
