    Summary

    But even Garak had to admit there was a certain … charm to the image. Imagine! Dropping everything in one’s life, halting all activities but breathing and striving, to speed halfway across the galaxy and kick down a few doors to rescue an old friend he thought he’d never see again. Imagine being the one to do what others could not, for one who actually deserved it, and be the light in the dark for a moment. A silhouette of mercy in that doorway, not terror.

    Bashir gets kidnapped and tortured by aliens, and Garak drops everything to rescue him. But with the aliens messing with his mind, how can he believe that his friend would leave Cardassia just for him? And why?

    Summary

    He was no one’s choice of nurse, Garak reflected, even if Bashir seemed to tolerate him more than anyone else on the station did. Garak had been trained to inflict pain, not to ease it; to terrify, not to comfort. Bashir had shown Garak more tenderness and care than anyone had in many, many years, and the idea of trying to play that same role for the good doctor now was, frankly, a little intimidating.

    Not trying at all, however, simply was not an option.

    Summary

    Eddie doesn’t know when it went from the Harringtons’ house to Steve’s house in Eddie’s brain but that’s what it is now. It’s Steve’s space and seeing him smile uncomfortably when he opens the door, usher Eddie and Robin to the kitchen with a quick glance at the living room where the television is on, well that just doesn’t sit right.

    [Or: In November of 1986 the Harringtons come back to Hawkins, IN.]

    Summary

    Steve?” Eddie hissed.

    Steve dropped his hands from his face and whipped around. It felt like his heart had just jumped out of his chest, leaving him vulnerable to anyone reaching out and crushing it.

    Eddie was poking his head out from behind a nearby tree. Sporting giant red sunglasses, Steve's old jacket, and oversized work gloves, he looked absolutely ridiculous.

    “Uh.” Steve cleared his throat, relieved to find that his voice still worked. “Hey?”

    -

    In which Steve tries to fix himself after the world has already been saved.

    Sequel to laughing at the broken glass.
