the spider on the wall by hanyusoft

Summary
Steve had a bad feeling, and this wasn't the first time it had happened.
For as long as he could remember, he had always had hunches. Hunches about events that hadn't even happened yet but warned him before the shoe could drop. He was used to them. To the bad omens. To the anxiety they brought.
Maybe, that's why he was as tense as a coiled spring when they entered Hawkins Lab, as gray as decayed as the rest of the Upside Down. But not even a hunch could have prepared him for what happened that day. He couldn't have braced himself for the party splitting up. He couldn't have braced himself for an argument with Dustin, much less the boy's violent reaction at him bringing Eddie into the conversation.
He couldn't have expected to crack his head open into the ground, nor the world that waited for him when he opened his eyes once again. Neither the spider that bit him, or the powers that would later bring him.
And when this peculiar world welcomed him, he couldn't help but wonder.
Was that Munson? In a big sign? Wearing a hero-like costume?
And why on Earth was he blond?

Summary
It doesn’t matter that he gets virtually no sleep, or that his grades are at an all-time low. It doesn’t matter that he jumps at absolutely everything and that he thinks he’s going crazy. And it certainly doesn’t matter that his parents are back in town. Non of that matters because life has never been better for Steve Harrington… at least that’s what he tells himself anyway.
-or-
I actually put Steve through hell.

Something is wrong with Steve Harrington... hell, if anyone can pinpoint just what though.
Steve Harrington dies with a plate to his head at the age of 18. It’s not the plate that does it, but the plate certainly helps the process along.

Summary
The first time you touch your soulmate’s skin directly with the palm of your hand, a soulmark will brand itself onto your wrist.
Steve and Eddie never had any reason to shake hands and they're certainly not close enough to touch each other casually.
So when Eddie pins Steve to the boathouse wall, pushing him back with his open palm he nearly drops the broken bottle then and there at the sensation of his soulmark spark.
You gotta be kidding, right?Steve stares down at the bare inside of his arm. He longs for nothing more than to find HIS person. The one who's destined to be with him, destined to love him.
Does he even have a soulmate waiting for him? His parents didn't.
His love is bullshit anyway. Nancy's harsh words still ring in his ears on a bad day.- A Soulmate AU S4 retelling

Summary
Jonathan Byers didn’t believe in soulmates. Not in the sense that they didn’t exist. He knew they were out there– in theory. He wasn’t naive enough to think that he’d actually find his. He also didn’t buy into the belief that you couldn’t live a happy life without finding your soulmate. He didn’t know anyone who had found their soulmate and they all lived perfectly happy and normal lives. There was just one benefit of finding a soulmate. Colors. The moment a person and their soulmate touch, their worlds are flooded with vibrant, beautiful colors. Without that person, you were stuck in a world of black and white. When Will goes missing, finding his soulmate is the last thing on Jonathan’s mind that is until he punches Steve Harrington in the face and his world is flooded with color.

Summary
“He’s coming home with me when my shift’s done.” Mrs. Hagan spoke up before the doctor could even finish. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw both Hopper and the Doctor look at the two of them in surprise. “You’re parents aren’t home, are they honey? Another work trip?”
Of course, she knew. She always knew. She’d been angry at his parents since he was ten and they started leaving him with a series of inattentive nannies. She’d taught him how to cook, do his laundry, and get stains out of the carpet when his parents started to leave him alone at fourteen. She’d been more of a mother to him than his own for years.
He’d missed her so much this last year.
Or, Steve is suffering from a concussion after season 2 and someone needs to watch him for a week. The Mom of his old friend Tommy Hagan, a nurse at Hawkins General, volunteers. The next week is one of the most awkward of Steve's life.

Summary
In a scientific study, a control group is used to establish a cause-and-effect relationship by isolating the effect of an independent variable. In contrast, the experimental group is where the independent variables are introduced, which may alternate depending on the nature, type, or anticipated outcome of the experiment. In the case of the experiments performed at Hawkins National Laboratory, scientists experienced a near-total loss of the control group. But what only a handful of people knew was that many of the members of the experimental group survived...and now they were being targeted.
Also known as a "Steve has powers" fic, because I just love those! Enjoy!

Summary
Steve nods toward El, drawing the kid’s attention there. “That’s El, my sister. If you take a look at her wrist, you’ll see a number there. Eleven.” The kid’s eyes widen at that. “Mine too. I have one, just like you.”
He pushes his sleeve up, unlatches the watch. There’s a special product he’s supposed to use to take the concealer off, but after so many days, it’s flaking anyway. It’s not hard to drag his nails over the fake coloring until the ugly black markings underneath pop up. He angles his wrist, giving the kid a clear shot. He hears his breath catch. Steve’s had too, when he’d read the kid’s number and put two and two together.
“I have one just like you,” he repeats. Dustin lets the kid raise his own wrist, pressing it close to Steve’s. The two three-digit figures sit there, next to each other, mirroring their twin. Steve sucks in a breath. “You feel things that you shouldn’t, that aren’t yours. None of the scientists know it, but you can change them too. You’re stronger than anyone else can tell. Do you know how I know that?”
Little Number Seven nods and whispers, “‘Cause you’re me.”
or, Steve is from the lab. His child self shows up in his living room. This is a problem.

Summary
“I told you. Dangerous jobs are my thing. Maybe, for once, Byers won’t try to beat me to the punch.”
“That’s not funny,” her voice is barely a hiss. She says something else that Dustin can’t quite make out.
What are they saying? What is she doing? Did she convince him that it’s an idiotic idea yet? She’s not actually considering it is she?
Steve wouldn’t do it. He can’t. Dustin won’t let him.
——————
During their short downtime in the Upside Down, Dustin overhears a conversation not meant for him. It leaves him uneasy.

"He knows she can’t be seen protecting a failure like him and that this is her way of looking after Sanji, but there’s a small part of him that wants so badly for Reiju to do something, anything more. She doesn’t have to fight on his behalf. Even a kind word for him in front of everyone would ease the sick feeling in his stomach.
Does he deserve her kindness in the first place?"

Summary
Sanji couldn’t look at him for long.
Not like this.
He turned away, shoulders stiff, walking a few paces toward the tree line—back rigid, fists clenched, as if the act of holding himself together physically could stop everything else from unraveling.
But his voice, when it finally came, was hoarse.
“…You weren’t supposed to see that.”
Sanji hated it. He'll say it over and over again till the day he dies. He hated using his hands to fight. So why when he is left with no choice to pick up a sword is he harassed by Zoro?
