Summary
A society-shirking young warlock with glamours galore and a desperate man willing to go to any length to rid himself of a familial curse. A gorgeous traveler woman feeling the unwanted pressure of marriage and a lovely duchess trapped in the confines of a boring, unfulfilling wedlock. An abuse-scarred barmaid with a fiery spirit and a calm, collected bounty hunter with secrets weighting his shoulders. This is the order that the stories will present themselves, and although they are intertwined a little bit there will be almost no real contact between characters, just background pieces.

Steve Harrington's Deaths (And The Times He Maybe Saved The World). by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Aug 2022

Summary
“I had another one.”
It stops the playful atmosphere instantly.
Not everyone tells him when they have a Memento. Lucas had kept to himself, and Will had refused to tell Steve about his dream. Some of them just tell him, softly, I remembered number one-seventy-three, or I had a Memento, last night. Sometimes it’s easier to just mention that it happened, acknowledge it and move on.
And Robin, for the most part, had done this. She hadn’t mentioned the details, because she’s sure that Steve is tired of hearing them, doesn’t want to hear his death from another person’s eyes, another person who is left with his body for a day before the loop dissolves into nothingness.
AKA: In the aftermath of it all, when Steve is learning what happiness means for him, people start to remember his deaths.

The One in Which a Time Loop is Fucking Exhausting. by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
17 Jul 2022

Summary
It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.
Steve fails. They lose.
“Steve, how many loops have you been through?”
His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.
“I lost count.”
AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

Summary
"This is just– bullshit!” Eddie yells.
You’re bullshit.
Oh.
Eddie’s face changes then. Goes from livid and scared, to something worried, regretful.
(Or: Steve finally tells Eddie how he feels.)

Summary
Steve frowns. “If you think I’m gonna go have sex with some girl when I know you’re upset, you’re crazy.”
Eddie barks out a laugh, disbelief and sorrow bubbling over into something akin to anger. Suddenly, he doesn’t care if Molly overhears them. “Well, I’m not upset, so, happy fucking!”
(Or, the fic inspired by Mr. Brightside).

Summary
“What if I kill you?” Eddie blurts, like a tool.
As if Steve’s been following his train of thought the entire time, he mumbles, “I'm too pretty to kill.”
And, like, what is Eddie supposed to do? Disagree?
“Yeah,” he agrees slowly. “Fair.”
(Or, Eddie and Steve are spies who keep running into each other.)
