Summary
AU set during episode 4 and onwards. Both canon-compliant, and also not canon-compliant. I think you can consider this a fix-it.
After noticing the third sarcophagus, Jake Lockley, with the help of Marc and Steven, breaks out and finally meets the two properly as they journey through the Duat in order to balance their scales. However, with Jake on board, how do things go from there? Does Steven fall into the Duat again? Does Marc end up in the Field of Reeds? And what about Harrow…? Fate changes if you just move something by an inch, after all.
Or: A Jake Lockley centric fic where Jake doesn't get left behind in the trip through the Duat, and the Moon Knight system gets to learn and grow with each other through their emotional journey, discovering long-buried memories, tragedies, secrets and triumphs, and uniting to fight Harrow and Ammit once they revive. Basically... I wanted to see more Jake Lockley, dangit, so I'm giving him the screentime he deserves.

Summary
In late January, 1984, Robin saw Steve Harrington stand stock still in the middle of the sidewalk, staring at a house with twinkling Christmas lights. She thought it was weird, but wasn’t going to comment and was about to walk around him when she realized his hands were shaking and repeatedly clenching and unclenching. And, because Robin could never leave well enough alone, she placed a hand on his shoulder.
Or, Robin and Steve meet post season 1 and begin their friendship early, despite Robin's confusion at how exactly it happened.

Summary
"Hiding. So fast, the moments gone. Eddie thinks a little about his last Hellfire Club session, ‘There’s no shame in running.’ About the way, Nancy had whispered, ‘Running keeps us alive.’ The night he became an Official Monster Hunter. Fingers curled around a makeshift spear, staring down the edges of her sawed-off Shotgun.
Steve leaves a few hours later, a hollow smile on his face compared to the one that Eddie witnessed, kept all to himself, hardly a handful of hours before. “See you tomorrow, Dragon Slayer.” And he’s gone; he shoves down the fear that he’s not coming back this time. Because he is, Steve Harrington is a hider. Not a runner.
He’s not like Eddie.
If Eddie knows nothing else, at least he knows that."
---Or,
March stripped Steve of his two coping mechanisms, rage, and an untuned, upright piano locked away in a back bedroom. Plucked from his fingers like a rather cruel parent with children’s toys.
In the aftermath, all that’s left to do is to figure out how to exist.It’s far harder than it should be.

Summary
“We'll just have to show you! I mean, If you don´t believe us, we just have to show you that he does in fact take care of us and that he is no longer a jerk.”
“Are you setting up a challenge, Henderson?”
“Yes?”
“Alrighty then! Let's see the new ex-king of Hawkins!”
Or where Eddie Munson doesn´t believe Steve Harrington has changed. It only takes a challenge to show him he has.
