Summary
“So I was beating the shit out of him, and hitting him with a big stick, too, and it was the first time I thought, ‘I could kill this guy.’ I just saw it, like on a screen — that if I hit him once more, that was going to be it.”
In which John hits Bob Wooler once more.

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
Steve ends up being cared for by Hopper after escaping the Russian Base under Starcourt Mall. He feels like death and probably looks just as bad, and has no one to go home to. But Hopper cares for him, and for once he feels safe. Even after the hell of … however long that torture had been.

Summary
Vaguely, over the sound of a bland pop song playing in the background, he hears the squeak of a pair of sneakers come to a halt at the other end of the aisle. He turns his head toward the sound… and promptly fumbles the tube of Pringles he’d been reaching for. He bats at it with his hand in a futile attempt at catching it, instead knocking it further toward the ground like a spiked volleyball.
He clears his throat.
“Um.” The tube rolls across the linoleum and comes to a stop at Tommy Hagan’s feet. Steve stares at it for a long, agonizing beat of silence, then he looks back up at Tommy’s face. “Sorry.”
Tommy raises his eyebrows, and Steve’s heart kicks in his chest.
Steve and Tommy haven't talked in nearly three years. After everything, maybe the best way forward is back.

Summary
Steve’s fight with Billy is exactly the kick in the pants Tommy (and Carol) need to make amends with Steve. Now if only Steve and his weird security detail full of bratty middle schoolers made it easier to talk to him.
The Steve/Tommy/Carol post-s2 fic that no one has been asking for but me <3
