Summary
Steve Harrington just wanted to go for a drive the night of November 6, 1983.
Just a drive.
He didn't expect to stumble across Will Byers running alone in the woods, let alone an inter-dimensional flower faced monster out for blood.
He definitely didn't expect to be dragged into something so much bigger than him that would flip his life upside down forever.

Summary
Sir Nancy Wheeler had long since accepted her fate. For the rest of her life, she was set to serve by Prince Steve Harrington’s side, sworn as his loyal knight. Her desires must be set aside; her duty and honor always taking first place.
Prince Steve Harrington knows his place in this world. His days of freedom are over, his future a bargaining chip for political power. All he can do is hope that he can find peace between himself and the woman he is being forced to marry.
But the Kingdom of Hawkins isn’t what it seems. Something dark lies beneath its dusty surface, and when Nancy discovers that Steve’s betrothed has taken it upon herself to investigate a strange willow deep in the forest, it is simply her duty as Steve’s knight to ensure that her future queen isn’t harmed.
Meanwhile, Steve has decided that the way to have a happy life is to make peace with his betrothed’s brothers, soon finding that charming the eldest prince will take nothing short of a miracle. And when he starts paying closer attention to the odd behavior of the youngest, he discovers that nothing in Hawkins is as simple as he thought.
Or; Hawkins is under siege. The royal betrothal is really the least of their worries.

Summary
Mike tries to wrestle out of Will’s grasp but he doesn’t even budge. He has his wrists pinned on either side of his head and his hips are straddling his waist. Mike wouldn’t complain about their position in any other situation, but right now all he feels is fear. Will’s eyes are that milky white again and his teeth are bared, chest heaving intensely. It looks eerily similar to him killing the demogorgons at the Mac-Z and it makes Mike want to hurl.
Mike has never been scared of Will. Mike knows the power that the boy holds, even dating back to his early teen years and his easy use of a shotgun. He knows Will is capable of being dangerous, but it’s never been pointed at him. He’s terrified now.

At a college party, Mike lets his unspoken insecurities get the better of him and accidentally mirrors the past. All he wants is to say the right thing, and all Will wants is for them to be ok. Unfortunately, deciding to talk about complicated feelings to your boyfriend while you're very drunk is a bad idea and so is acting like you're doing completely fine.
Activate emotional support from all the friends.

Summary
Will steps into the woods. Birds chirp around him, and squirrels run up the trees. It's been six months since Vecna was finally defeated, and now everyone is finally beginning to settle. Everyone except for Will. He can't seem to get out of fight or flight mode, and everything's been wrong. His body feels off, heavy and achy, while his concentration is shot. No one noticed when he stopped showing up to things, stopped answering his radio. El will chatter every night about what her and Mike were up to that day.
And it seems to take all of Dustin's energy to keep moving, and to show up himself. Lucas is with Max, and no one noticed when Will started to fade into the background. He knew if he stopped trying, this is what would happen. He knew as soon as he had to beg for their attention. It's ok though, he's always known his place. And now it's fine for him to step back, and let them all breathe without him. Every morning he takes another walk like this one, trying to chase away the ache in his joints that make it hard to move. Part of him knows that he should say something, that this isn't normal pain.
That something is seriously wrong, but he can't bring himself to.

Babysitting a bunch of kids - one of them psychic - and surviving junior year was already more than enough.

Neither was dealing with the comeback of The Upside Down... and the ugly dogs that came with it.But hey - what else can he do but fight the monsters and fall in love all over again?

Summary
“What are you reading?” Steve looked up at the person standing at the door. He blinked in surprise and shrugged.
“Nothing important.” He shut the book and shoved it into the bag beside him. He glanced back at the guy who was eyeing him curiously. Steve rolled his eyes before turning back. “Can I help you with anything? Customers aren’t supposed to be here.” The guy snorted then held out his hand.
“Eddie Munson,” he said, smirking. Steve smiled, the name rang a bell but he couldn’t quite place it. “I’m friends with Robin, she told me to wait back here.” Steve smiled and nodded, shaking his hand.
Eddie and Robin are friends and Eddie hangs around Scoops. It changes everything.

Summary
Will tugs at his hair in the mirror. His disastrous bowl cut's grown out a bit, and his shoulders have broadened. He can't stand to look at his face, the point of his chin, the eeriness of his eyes.
Pressure grows in his temples, behind his sinuses, tingling all the way down to his fingers. Power trembles, like it's a caged tiger anticipating release. He tamps it down anyways.
He's not a hero. He's- he's just a background character that got a little too unlucky.
Or, my take on Volume 1, Season 5. Hopefully I'll pump this all out before Volume 2 gets released, so I can pretend that this is canon and everyone lives happily ever after.

Summary
It's October of 1984, and Steve Harrington's life is completely normal.
A new sort of normal, but still...completely normal. It doesn't matter that there are still gaping holes in his memory or that Will is having more and more episodes because Steve has everything under control...right?
