    Summary

    He sat down heavily in his chair, pulling his backpack across the table towards him, pulling his laptop out and opening it back up to the notes he was going back over again. He stared at it intently, the words swimming, and he shrunk the window down so he could open up his word document as well. The line to start his writing blinked in and out of existence while he stared. He knew it was pointless, and that he wasn’t going to get anything done, and he knew that within six seconds of having it open. He closed both windows, and opened YouTube, pulling his earbuds out, but only putting one in to watch some videos.

    He was only a couple minutes into his video when he heard the guy who looked like Luke shout he was going on break, and a hand holding a cup appeared on the table in front of him. The Luke-alike dropped into the empty chair across from him as Percy paused the video and pulled his earbud out too fast. They stared at each other for a moment before the man across from him sighed,

    “Ok Percy, how’d you find me?”

    Summary

    Newt remembers it. He remembers the sleek metal of the knife easily sliding into his flesh. He remembers the sickly black views running up his arms, making him crazed and delirious. He remembers dying. Which only makes him confused when he wakes up, cured and healed. What's even more confusing is when he wakes up, only to see dead people staring back at him.

    Thomas still feels the hilt in his hand. He feels the weight as Newt sank to the ground underneath him. He feels the last soft breath Newt let out. He remembers Newt dying. But he can't sit still. Not when danger is calling him. Thomas has never been able to resist the pull of danger.

    Summary

    Steve's changed quite a bit since that day he adopted six kids. At least, he'd like to think so. So when Carol and Tommy go through another "break-up" stage, and some creeps are eyeing his former friend, there is no way he is going to let them touch her. It starts with Carol, protecting her and shielding her from a bunch of creeps. But it just keeps going after that.

    Summary

    An unexpected tragedy in Robin's life leads to a strange arrangement to keep her in Hawkins: namely, a marriage of convenience between herself and Steve Harrington.

    ~

    “Nancy. Steve and I don’t engage in anything that could remotely be construed as romantic.”

    “I saw you sitting in his lap and feeding him pizza with your bare hands last weekend.”

    “What’s a little lap-sitting and pizza-sharing between friends?” she says dismissively.

    “Not the norm.” She shakes her head. “If you’re really just friends, that’s fine, but I’m worried Steve won’t see it that way, and, well… I don’t want you to break his heart.”

    “Not a heartbreaker,” Robin promises. “It’s sweet, though, you looking out for him.”

    “Funny how it seems like we keep trying to set each other up with him,” Nancy offers to lighten the mood. “I guess neither of us really know what he needs.”

    “I guess,” Robin says tightly, but she’s pretty sure she’s known what he needs since that night in the bathroom. She’s pretty sure he does too.
