Summary
Mike moves first- she hears him yell, strangled, screaming her name repeatedly, and every single one feels like a knife wound.
The pain is abominable- it’s worse than the time she’d had to rip part of the mind-flayers diseased flesh-creature right out from under her own skin on the floor of the Starcourt mall. Worse than anything Papa ever put her through. Worse than Henry’s unnatural force pinning her to walls, trees, vines, attempting to crack her bones, send her back to their maker.
She watches Will struggle and scream. Dustin actually wrenches himself free of the soldier holding him- but she’s impassive.
She is a soldier. A weapon.
She is ending the cycle.
She closes her eyes, and allows fate to take her.
Only-
It-
Doesn’t----
Through an unexpected twist of fate, El survives the end of the upside down.
But after several years of running (and learning to live along the way), she ends up back in Hawkins' orbit again- and just as things begin to look very bleak, fate intervenes again through the arrival of an unforeseen ally (one Dustin Henderson: college student, single-dorm-room-occupier, and excellent friend to those in peril).Series

Summary
Despite all of the insanity around him, Steve can feel only one thing.
The sensation of something - someone - behind him, on the ground, where they’re huddled together.
There’s something under the truck, he thinks. Oh god, there’s something here. I was right, and I didn’t check.
Something followed us out.—
Life after Vecna's death is everything that Steve expected it would be: new job, new house, new beginnings.
He’s fine, honestly.
Everything is fine - other than the fact that his new home in Forest Hills feels under constant watch from something in the shadows, he keeps finding animal corpses drained of blood around town, he can’t hold a relationship down to save himself, Dustin keeps leaving him increasingly concerning cryptic phone messages… and there’s some sort of sinister entity occupying the woods near the Creel House.
So, fine. Totally.Series

Summary
Steve is in a bit of a crisis. Everyone around him is moving forward with their lives, they have moved out, met new people, and he is still in Hawkins, going on date after date and looking for a connection that he just can't find. After one too many dreams about a dead boy he takes his truck and RV and hits the road, trying to run away from ghosts and expectations.
He never planned for his truck to break down in the middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania.
He never expected to go look for a mechanic and meet a ghost.Bookmarked by millennial_nicknack

Summary
“One chilly September morning, Eddie Munson decided to have a smoke before school, and the timeline branched …”
Shortly after season four came out, I decided I wanted to rewrite it with the premise that Steve and Eddie were already dating, but I also wanted to show how they ended up dating, and ... Two years later, the story is finally done at over 313,000 words. This is my magnum opus. I want to print this, bind it, and be buried with it. I hope others find as much joy reading it as I did writing it.

This is a "clean" version of my s4 rewrite Steddie fic "Be Kind, Please Rewind" I'm uploading for my mother and anyone else that's interested! (Mom, don't click that link 😅)
