Summary
Step one was to get people to like him, because he could tell from the smell of the recycled, closed-circuit air that this wasn't the kind of place where you could steal a guard uniform and sneak one or two prisoners out. He was going to need everyone he could get.

Summary
When he was a child, Todd Anderson dreamed of leaving small-town Connecticut behind and making it on his own in the big city. The small-town gossip and the hum of cicadas would fade into the privilege of anonymity, replaced by the sounds of sirens and traffic—signs of life. There would be no more late-night drives to sit in a parking lot, staring at streetlights. No more comparisons to his older brother—the youngest financial director in the history of Miller Davis Insurance, as his parents constantly reminded him. What Todd didn’t factor into his dreams, however, was what to do once he got to the city—New York City, in this case. Leaving his parents’ house had been an impulsive decision, spurred by yet another argument about career goals and how his brother actually made them proud.

Summary
My dearest beloved,
It is with great relief that I finally write to you. I think it doubtful for my words to ever reach your ears, but spare me this chance to lend you a piece of my thoughts — and only a piece, for I must write with caution lest I be discovered.Neil, amidst his own internal emotional conflict, accidentally stumbles upon letters Todd had been writing in secret to an unknown recipient. Neil (an idiot) continues to intrude on Todd's privacy by reading each new letter in secret, continuously agitating over their purpose.

Summary
“You know I’m a little bit in love with you, right?” Sokka says after a while, muffled into Zuko’s hair. The other boy makes a little noise of surprise and stiffens up for a moment, but then he melts back into Sokka, as if he’s trying to eliminate every bit of space between them.
“Really?” Zuko whispers.
“Really,” Sokka says, raking a hand through his hair.
“Oh,” Zuko says. “Well, that’s good, because I’m a little bit in love with you too.”
---
Or, in a world where you start having prophetic dreams about your future with your soulmate after you first meet them, Sokka and Zuko struggle to find their place. (They'll find it eventually, I swear.)

Summary
Soulflowers are the beauty in pain, the soulmark left from a scar on your soulmate. Its a gift from the spirits and its supposedly meant to pair you with your perfect half. Sokka's calling bullshit though and Zuko would be inclined to agree. Soulmates aren't supposed to be fighting on opposite sides of a war and really shouldn't try to kill each others' friends. Well, Sokka's friends. Zuko is too awkward and honor-driven to actually have any.

Summary
Sokka heard that story before. Of course he did, the turning point of Zuko's destiny, the single bravest and most noble (or stupid) thing he's ever done. He retold the thoughts that went through his head back then, the repercussions... but he left out a single detail.
And it's that detail that changes everything.I need to see his soulmark. Sokka thinks, heart hammering in his chest.

Eddie just wanted to play DND in an actual haunted house. He didn't think it would ACTUALLY be haunted.Or: Steve ate shit in the tunnels and now he's stuck in his house with the girl who died in his swimming pool. Also this little rat man keeps visiting.
Set somewhere after season 2 and before season 3Currently undergoing light editing in terms of prose/bits of writing. Plot will remain unaffected, I'm just unhappy with how some of this is worded. Currently editing: Chapter 5

Summary
All Cody wanted from the Jedi was a competent, fair general; so that he could focus on keeping his men safe, and maybe trying to live up to the name Jango Fett had bestowed on him.
Nothing could have prepared him for Kenobi save for the experience itself: crashing across the galaxy, from caf-and-stims-fueled battlefield highs down to heady fluorescent ship-side lows.
But then, he supposes, this war had a habit of exceeding his expectations, in all the best and worst ways. This is that story through Cody's eyes.

November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.

Summary
Steve Harrington was the absolute master of mixtapes. No one understood it, but he just knew what worked. And, of course very few people actually had one of the coveted Harrington Mixtapes. A scattered handful of crushes, girls he’d tried to impress in high school. But there was a small collection of mixtapes in Hawkins with real meaning. Given to good friends and trustworthy allies.
Robin held the mixtape record for a long time, holding three mixtapes in her possession by the time Vecna attacked them all.
At least, Robin held the record until the end of the summer of 1986. The summer Steve dedicated to creating a mixtape for Eddie Munson. And maybe, maybe he just so happened to fall in love in the process.

Summary
“Look, I’m just asking, okay? Not– I don't mean anything by it. But, uh.” His eyes darted back and forth, then he leaned in close to Steve. Steve had gotten used to that, kind of. The guy had no concept of personal space. “Are you flagging?” Eddie finally finished.
Steve shook his head slowly, eyes narrowed. He had no idea what that meant. He had no answer. “What?”
Eddie leaned away from Steve, facing forward again and nodding. “Okay, got it. That answers my question. Carry on.”
-------------------------------------------------
A (mostly) innocent question leads Steve Harrington on a journey of self-discovery, friendship, sex, and romance.
