Magic AU!!!! ✨

My friend! Hiiiiii! Thanks for the ask! ❤️

This is the thing I'm working on the most at the moment. So far it's 37k words of a world in which Billy has magic powers and some things happened like in canon and a lot of others didn't. Like the fact Neil sold Billy's car before they left California and the piece of junk he buys for Billy in Hawkins is haunted. Or the fact that there are a couple of people hell bent on making friends with the new guy in town. Like one Steve Harrington... 😱

Long snippet? Yeah!

"Sorry to bother you, could you please give a thing to your brother for me?"

"I don't have-"

"Your step brother," Steve amends. "It's for Billy."

God, they're so alike, these two. You so much as forget the step part and they immediately bite your head off, worse than if you accused them of a heinous crime.

Max crosses her arms on her chest and stands her ground, looks him up and down like he's a gnat. Like she hasn't decided yet how to get rid of him, but has a few painful options in mind.

Steve places his folded piece of paper tied with red thread on the top of the nearest box and steps back.

"Just give this to Billy, please. It's nothing bad, I swear. Thanks."

He starts walking away and hears Maxine's steps move from the lawn to the sidewalk, she calls:

"Why should I?"

Sounds like she's insulted by Steve. By his assumption that she will do what he asked her to.

He turns around and walks backwards towards his car, puts a bit of King Steve in his smile as he says:

"Because you're curious to see what it says. What Billy will do."

*eyes fic anxiously* This is gonna be massively long... And with some good ol' cosmic horror here and there because we're worth it!
