Summary
He really doesn’t wanna go back to the room yet. He turns his head and sees the beach in the distance. Thinking back to better times back in L.A., his legs are taking him towards the sand before he even registers it.
The sound of the waves are comforting, the moon glimmering off the dark water. He closes his eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath.
Robby hears mumbling and opens them, turning his head to see where the hushed speaking is coming from. He’s surprised when he squints and sees Demetri in the distance, sitting atop a beach towel with his arms crossed and a scowl worn on his face.
(Or: A rewrite of the bar scene from s6 ep 8 with Robby leaving and coming across Demetri instead of getting drunk. Past feelings are revealed.)

Summary
In early June of 1998, Steve Harrington is kicked out and disowned by his parents. With Robin, his best friend, living in a dorm at college, he can't stay with her.
Nowhere else to go, he drives across the country and ends up in San Francisco to see a friend he hasn't seen in years: Jonathan Byers, who's dealing with his own struggles.
In the same city, Eddie Munson is working at a bowling alley with his best friend, Argyle Herrera—whom he also lives with—and Lucas Sinclair, who's just graduated from high school.
Jonathan, in an attempt to bring his younger brother, Will, out of the funk he's fallen under, takes him and Steve to a bowling alley for some fun.
The same one Eddie, Argyle, and Lucas work at.
It changes all of their lives forever.
OR: a somewhat angsty, somewhat fluffy story of romance, friendships, and found family.
(A no Upside Down, canon divergent au set in 1998, not a time jump.)

Summary
The final semester of Eddie's second senior year are some of the worst months of his life. Genuinely.
So when Uncle Wayne wins two tickets for a month-long cruise in a raffle, courtesy of the 'Creel Cruise Line', he encourages Eddie to take a friend and get out of Hawkins for a while, not able to leave himself due to bills.
Things start out fine, good even; possibly thanks to a cute boy who serves ice cream in a sailor suit. But when people start going missing and weird occurrences follow, Eddie can't even begin to predict the horror that will soon befall him, his buddy, Dustin, and the friends he makes on the isolated 'Creel Starcourt'.
OR: a Stranger Things slasher au set on a cruise ship during the summer of 2011.

It just so happens to be his letterman jacket.
Of course, he didn't think this would actually be a big deal.
Oh, boy, was he wrong...
