Summary
" “You just need to… not be noticed for some time, alright? Let things settle up here, prove to the bosses that you can be a stickler for rules. And Way needs someone to keep him earthbound.” Brian picked a brown folder of the top of the stack nearest Frank and handed it over. “This is the papers for your relocation. He’s-”. A pause, “His conclusions have been out there lately, but he’s bright, skilled, so we don’t want to have to let him go. Keep him on track and you’ll be back on the ground floor in no time.” "
Introducing Gerard as the basement recluse feeding of conspiracy theories and old coffee, Frank as the action seeking loose gun lacking toy boats, Mikey the mystery and Brian as the boss with the headache at the end of the day.

Summary
Eddie made a strangled disbelieving noise, expression flickering. “You are not apologizing to me right now, for like, feeling a normal way about stuff. I can’t believe you.”
Steve pushed a shaking hand through his hair. His heart rate no longer in his ears meant he felt he could at least think a little more clearly. “Maybe it was the heat. Doesn’t always have to be something messed up, right?”
Eddie gave him a placating nod. “Sure, heat exhaustion is a helluva thing.”
It had been happening a lot recently. The… forgetting. Zonking out. Whatever. He was pretty sure he was just extra exhausted, it had been a few weeks since everything but it might have just been the adrenaline or something finally wearing off. Sometimes it was like he just forgot someone was speaking, or couldn’t remember for a moment what they’d been talking about. Like blinking out of a fog maybe.
It does not get better, in fact, it actually continues to get worse.

Summary
Steve's feet stumbled more than walked, but Hopper didn't care. He half-carried, half-dragged the kid toward the emergency room doors, his jaw clenched so tight it ached. Every step felt like it took too long.
As the two of them started to slowly stumble to the front of the ER, Hopper took a brief moment to think about it. Took a moment to think how despite everything—despite barely knowing the kid, despite all his preconceptions and assumptions, despite the amount of times Steve had purposefully acted like a smart-ass punk just to piss him off—Hopper had realized something tonight:
Steve Harrington was a good kid.

Summary
He throws the car in park and removes the key before leaning forward slightly to rest his forehead on the steering wheel. The car shakes as the kids scramble out of it, slamming the doors closed behind them. Each resulting WHAM sets off fireworks behind Steve’s closed eyelids.
He just needs a minute. One minute of silence. Then, he’ll go inside to wrangle the kids and clean up before Mrs. Byers gets back.
A hand lands on his shoulder and he jumps, whipping his head to see who’s touching him. Pain floods over the left side of his head and down through his neck and shoulders. He presses a hand into his left eyebrow, trying to chase the pain away with the pressure.
Dustin still sits in the passenger seat next to him. His hand tightens on his shoulder, eyes blown wide.
“Steve, hey, you okay?”

Summary
When Eddie’s dealing drugs at one of the famous Harrington parties, he somehow ends up having a weed-high hook up with his high school crush who he’d always thought was straight as an arrow.
Years later, after the events of season 4, Eddie has narrowly escaped death and is now friends with said crush, who remembers nothing from their night together.
Steve is going through it, and by it, a frustrating sexuality crisis while deep in denial after surviving monsters from another dimension.

Summary
Steve Harrington has always been restless. Bouncy, that’s what his mom used to call him. He mostly learned how to tamp down on the physical manifestations of his restless energy in front of others because it turns out that if you’re relentlessly yelled at or humiliated over something, you eventually try to avoid said thing. And if that grew into a creeping sort of anxiety that seeped into him as the years went by, well, he learned to ignore that too.
Then Steve walks into the Byers house and finds out that monsters are real, monsters with teeth for faces that literally rip through the fabric of reality, and, well, he thinks the anxiety that Nancy (amateurly) diagnosed him with is perfectly warranted. All of the sudden, being home alone while his parents are on vacation or business trips is no longer exciting. Now, instead of being happy to have the whole house to himself, walking through his dark and empty home makes his heart race, and he swears he sees shadows slinking along the walls in the dark. He keeps the lights on in every room in the house for a long time.
Or
What happens when Steve meets Eddie before season 4, adopts Max as a pseudo sister, and just cannot sit still?
