Summary
"I pray to the sun, to this last minute of life: let my enemies pay with blood for what they did to me—I'm just a killed slave, easy fistful of death. But you, o humans, o human things—when a man is happy, a shadow could overturn it," Cassandra, 'Book of Agamemnon, the Oresteia'.
In which a girl is reborn into the world of Stranger Things and has to deal with the fact that she very much wants to keep away from anything with rows and rows of teeth. But then she goes and gets attached. And people get attached to her.
She needs to deal with monsters, doesn’t she?

Summary
Beth is eight years old and watching Scooby-Doo reruns with her little brother when she remembers that she died. Blood and twisted metal swim in her vision as the screen goes to static, and Jonathan’s too busy whining at the screen to notice the way she stops breathing.
Eventually, she lays down on the brown carpet and goes back to watching cartoons.(Jonathan is her little brother, and it’s her job to look after him while Mom watches Will.
Jonathan is six, and Beth is eight, and Beth is nineteen and dead.
She figures she can break down later, when he’s not there to see it.)

Summary
The general public spent 30 years thinking nothing of Steve’s presence in pictures beyond him being ‘that one hot dude in the background’ because whatever, he was just another part of Corroded Coffin’s entourage.
Imagine the scramble on the band’s subreddit to reexamine every picture he’s ever been in when, the day gay marriage gets legalised in Indiana, Eddie posts a picture on Instagram of the two of them with the caption “Finally. We’ve been engaged since 1989.”
(Because of the formatting is infinitely clearer on desktop or tablets than on mobile)

Summary
“Are your parents spies?”
“What? No.” No, they’re just a space alien and a woman from the future who briefly was all of time and space, no big deal.
“Are they…no, sorry, can’t think of any better reasons for there to be a weird vault of futuristic technology in your house, Steve.” Dustin says his name with a strange sort of emphasis, like he wants to impress upon Steve that he knows exactly who his is and what he’s about and he’s not going to get away with any of his shenanigans while Dustin is about. Steve wishes Dustin would clue him in on who Steve is and what he’s about because he’s beginning to wonder who and what that is exactly, if he ever knew in the first place.AU where Steve Harrington's parents are the Doctor and Rose Tyler and somehow he's still fighting monsters with a baseball bat.

Summary
“And you must be Will the Wise,” Eddie greeted him when the other kids had finally let go. “I heard all about you.”
Will the Wise arched a single eyebrow at him. “You did.” It wasn't even a question, the kids voice dry and doubtful.
Will kind of hated him, Eddie thought, and then immediately wondered what he'd done to deserve that because while he was very used to random strangers hating him for no fucking reason, he'd kind of hoped this particular random stranger would be an exception to the rule.
Joke was on the kid, though, because Eddie loved a challenge.
“Most powerful wizard in all the land,” he said, cracking a smile that he hoped was disarming enough as he offered his hand.
Will glanced at it for a moment, then at his face, his eyes narrowed ever so slightly. Assessing him. Eddie wasn’t too worried, though, simply wiggled his fingers and waited for Will to make the next move.
He did.
A surprisingly strong hand grabbed his own, shaking it firmly.
“By the by,” Eddie tagged on in a low voice so that only Will could hear, planning to go all in, “I personally thought Zombie Boy was a pretty badass name.”
