Summary
From this prompt for the Criminal Minds Dark Fic Exchange:
"Spencer never told anyone he was sexually assulted while in prison - after getting out and starting a new relationship (or rekindling an old one) he's forced to confront what happened to him and acknowledge that he hasn't been coping in a healthy way" -

Summary
"He shrugged the exchange off and grabbed another coffee, his fifth that day his mind reminded him. He tried not to think about what he wished it was, if he didn't give it a name it wasn't real. Instead he focused on the slight bruising on his shoulder and tried not to smile, it was hard to admit but moments like that between him and regular assholes helped him feel more at ease with where his head was. If there was an excuse to be sad it felt less like there was an issue with him and more like his issues were justified. Spencer knew the figures, knew trauma could trigger mental illness and addiction but that some people didn’t have any trigger for their problems. Some people were just born with ghosts in their bones and ants in their veins."

They were dead.

Summary
It's been almost four years since Michael Shelley succeeded Gertrude Robinson as the Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute. Almost four years of relative peace and quiet, interspersed with the odd bout of supernatural bullshit. Michael is engaged, document storage is tidier than it has ever been, and things are looking... good.
But the Web has been biding its time, and now it's ready to make its next move. It may have lost the battle to place Jon in the Archivist's chair, but there are still ways to get its plans back on track, and it has plenty of pieces left on the board.
(This is a sequel to Break Me Like A Pattern. I recommend reading that first, or you will be very confused.)

Summary
They escaped the lab. They fought monsters. They survived the Upside Down.
Humans were far harder to defeat.
Jim Hopper and Steve Harrington are trapped in a Russian prison, held in brutal conditions. A violent and sadistic Russian officer fixates on Steve, and Hopper is powerless to intervene as the kid he used to lecture about parties and beer becomes a target of relentless torment. When a chaotic rescue mission saves Hopper but forces him to leave Steve behind, he makes a plan to go back for him on his own.
The Party doesn't abandon its own, though, and Steve belongs to them. With the kids, some helpful adults, and the teens who are still unsure how they've gotten dragged into so many life-or-death situations, Hopper heads back into hell to save the kid he failed.
This time, he'll die before he leaves Steve behind.

Summary
Finney Blake would be the first to admit that his life was not going the way he planned it. He lost Robin, he lost his childhood, and he would never look at another basement the same again. But before he could even begin to process the state of his life, some new friends from beyond the grave made their presence known. Now with powers that Finney couldn't even begin to understand, he and his friends begin to unravel parts of the world they wish they never discovered.

Summary
Steve Harrington always knew you can never escape your past. He just didn't think it could catch up to him this easily.
“How am I talking to you?” she asks. “Is this real?”
Steve nods even though no one can see him, the motion instinctive. “Yeah. Yeah, it’s real.”
He forces himself to keep going. “Are you hurting anywhere?”
“No,” Barb whispers. “I don’t think so.”
A beat.
“But it’s cold.”Bookmarked by rose_lighters
