“How’s school going?” Joyce asks.
“Good. It’s…going good,” Mike replies. She nods and sips her hot chocolate.
“Mrs. Byers.” She looks up at him and Mike feels his heart beat faster. “Why did you make three hot chocolates?”
She takes her time to answer. “I don’t know,” she replies after a while. “It felt like the right thing to do today.”
Today. Today’s weird, Mike thinks.
“It’s March 22nd today.”

Summary
He’s pretty sure that’s when he reaches his breaking point. Everything that’s happened in the past however many days rushed into his brain like a shock of electricity. He feels his breath get shakier as he lowers himself down.
A hand cards through the profoundly greasy hair and pulls him in. He’s a little lost in thought as this happens so he just goes with it. He feels a bit weightless, as though he’s in the bathtub, sight, sound, touch, taste, smell, all slightly out of reach. It’s a freefall.
He’s falling.
God knows when he’ll fucking land.

Summary
Steve Harrington is a failure.
His parents know it, and his ex-girlfriend, Nancy Wheeler, knows it too. That’s why she helped him get a job at Mindflyer Magazine. But after one too many mistakes, Steve’s job is on the line, and the only way he can save his ass is by participating in an app trial and writing a piece about the experience.
Hellfire Inc. is a tech company that has just developed a new relationship app to help you find your soulmate. After determining the matching percentage, it guides you through 5 weeks of dating to make sure you and your soulmate are ready to start this new relationship.
Founder Eddie Munson hasn’t been seen in public in five years, and now he’s about to be the test subject of his new app to try and maintain his board seat. He just didn’t expect to match with someone so different and yet so incredibly enticing.
They are supposed to be opposites, but Dustin’s calculations project that Steve and Eddie are soulmates. Can they work through their differences and find some common ground for the experiment’s sake, or will they end the whole thing hating each other?
Or worse, will they end the whole thing in love with each other?

Summary
The Starcourt Mall has been nothing but ashes for decades-at least, that's what everyone in Hawkins says.
But when y/n and her two best friends slip into the mall's abandoned loading dock, they wake up to flashing neon, bustling crowds, and the summer of 1985 in full swing.
The countdown has already begun: in seven days, Starcourt will burn, and the three of them must find a way home before they're trapped in the past forever.
The more they search for answers, the more they uncover about the mall's secrets... and the strange force that brought them there in the first place.

He's King Steve, Steve “the Hair” Harrington. He's an all-American boy growing up in the heartland. And he's spent years working very hard to keep it that way, because the truth is the last thing he is, is normal.
No, Steve Harrington has a dark past he's desperate to escape, however that gets much harder when Will Byers goes missing and Steve just can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong in Hawkins, something that's pointing straight to his past. But everything will be fine, right? All he has to do is pretend everything is normal.

Summary
Logically, Will knows that he, a sixteen-year-old boy, should not be this excited about getting his parent’s approval to go out past seven pm on a Friday. He probably shouldn’t even need their permission anymore. But Will’s life has never been that simple, that normal. Neither had El’s. And sure, some people may consider their parents overprotective or obsessive, but those are the people who look in on them from the outside. The people whose children had never been kidnapped or hunted down by the government.
But Will and his family had moved to Hawkins to get away from all that shit. And now, he could play DnD, El could hang out with her new friend (albeit secretly), and they didn’t have to worry about governments and monsters – they didn’t even have to be home until nine.
Their biggest worry here is wanting to make friends with a group of kids that had been arrested once or twice. Right?

Summary
The terrible, awful thing about finally getting what he wanted — namely, Mike — is that now he wants more, the selfish creature that he is. When he was younger, he’d been able to convince himself that kissing Mike, just once, would be enough to last him a lifetime. Foolishly, he’d thought that he could relish that single kiss and live a peaceful life, one where Mike was still his friend and nothing changed but his feelings would dissipate.
Instead, they grew; they’re still growing, Will fears, growing bigger and bigger each time Mike and him get together, because every sound Mike makes when Will kisses him makes Will want to find ten more little gasps and whines and groans, and each time Mike twists their fingers together and pants against his skin Will thinks about how much better it is than the time before.
will and mike are - something, and will's not entirely sure what. whatever they are, he wants more, but he's not sure if he can have it.

Summary
Eddie Munson marches on stage that night, glammed up and dizzy, and squawks. Right at the audience! Gone is the suave, confident frontman who wears his body like he designed it, who winks at interviewers who poke and prod at the queer subtext in his lyricism. In his stead is an extremely (unwillingly) drunk man, who cannot for the life of him remember how to be a rockstar.
It was a disaster, to say the least.
But it was also really, really funny.
(Or: Eddie Munson steps away from the spotlight and takes up hosting a radio show. He quickly strikes up a strange friendship with a frequent caller. Oh, and his neighbor just so happens to be the most beautiful man Eddie's cynical eyes have ever seen.)
