Post season 3 pre-season 4

Something spooks Steve while he's waiting for the party to finish up at hellfire so he comes running nail bat in hand to check up on the kids

This obviously freaks out and intrigues the other hellfire members that don't understand why Steve Harrington would come running in with a homemade weapon and be doing wellness checks on the newest members

They start asking questions and it gets even more interesting because they mention NDAs that they try and talk around and being the skilled adventurers who have to put clues and solve plots together not unlike the one laid out before them they figure out it has something to do with the shit down Hawkins lab (and starcourt but they start with the lab)

So they go out for some urban exploring to see if they can't figure out what the hell was happening only to be met with Steve stepping out on front of eddies van before they can get too close to the lab

Steve has enough experience with the party to know there's no dissuading a curious nerd so he passes out weapons (you're telling these people aren't obsessively prepared for just about any situation I call bullshit) and giving out instructions before leading them inside

Of course there's monsters in there it's Hawkins if something can go wrong it will, he tells them to run and being faced with a monster for the first time they listen, until there outside and realize they left him alone with a fucking monster and run back to help him

Steve is injured but nothing life threatening but he heards them all back outside to the cars calls in a code red and tells everyone to meet back at his place

While they're waiting for everyone to show up Eddie tends to his wounds and gives him his whole you're not a bad dude speech and it's somehow more homoerotic than it was in the show (thanks wound care)

Illness has taken hold once more- and as a result I have the leisure in the midst my suffering to enjoy the finer things in life

what if dan heng is a dragon princeling in exile who's needed back at home for some inane reason but he's been exiled for so long no one in the luofu knowns how to reach him so they hire the IPA to track him down for a reward expecting himeko and welt except a girl calling herself a calendar day and a guy who was literally born last week is what shows up

but a deal's a deal so march and caelus set out to track dan heng and bring him back but they run into blade and silver wolf because the stellaron hunters are also looking for the princeling because as it turns out the luofu had gotten their hands on a stellaron and needs a receptacle but they've accidentally killed their last one and needs dan heng and they need him quick, before the stellaron explodes, and the hunters are looking for him to do a hostage exchange but hesta hears about this and demands him for study so when march and caelus finds dan heng it quickly becomes an escort mission to get him to this blizzard place to hide while himeko and welt and astra talk down hesta and extract a promise from luofu to not accidentally kill their next receptacle

but surprise!! kafka made caelus her receptacle and comes to belobog to collect!! cue boss fight, jing yuan descends in celestial fury to save the day, dispelling belobog's eternal blizzard via the lightning lord, and in the aftermath himeko and welt come and bundle their kids away and caelus makes jing yuan promise to let dan heng visit the express the next time they're in town

and like, three months later the express comes by again because hesta wants to check up on her collaborative research project (what himeko and welt strong-armed luocha to agree to) and dan heng has golden horns to match caelus' golden eyes and he agrees to join the astral express for their next trip and everyone teases caelus for his overprotectiveness towards the dragon princeling

The final chapter of my Hanahaki fic is up!!!

[thought-begone]

I guess the real glorious evolution was the homoerotic yearning we made along the way

[ideologyofone]

I’m sorry but I will truly never get over Ekko who lost his mentor and all his friends at a young age, then spent the rest of his childhood building a beautiful and strong community that helped get shimmer addicts off the streets and give them a new life that thrived off of trust, respect, and loyalty while slowly watching the girl he loves lose herself to her psyche and become an unhinged suicidal terrorist who he is unable to save despite repeated attempts at it. And THEN gets booted into an alternate reality where he learns he could have had EVERYTHING, the beautiful and thriving community, the education, his family, and the girl he loves and he heartbreakingly leaves it all behind because he knows he doesn’t belong there and he has to go back to save his people which he DOES multiple times at great risk despite knowing what overextending his z-drive could do only to end up completely alone in the end. The most selfless character in the entire series. That’s my boy savior.

I am incredibly serious right now when I beg you all, please, and if you have Twitter or Tiktok or whatever to please spread the word: click on an author's profile on Ao3.

You want to know if an author has written more? Want to know if they're still writing? Want to see more from them? Want to know if they've written a trope or kink or sex scenario you enjoy?

Click on their name. And look at their profile.

I cannot tell you how many times in the last six months someone has read a new or newer fic of mine and said they (a new reader who has read nothing else I've done) "can't wait to see what you do next!" I've written 50+ fics and over a million words already.

"I don't know if you're still writing..." click on my profile. I am. I literally wrote a 128k+ fic for that ship last month.

"Would you ever do X?" "Please do Y!" I already did. Click on my name and look at my works.

Archive of our Own is a library. It's an archive. Not social media. It is your responsibility to fight back against the laziness that corporate algorithms have trained into you.

Click my author name. Just click it. Just click it.

Before you demand more, or ask if a writer will do XYZ, or wonder if the author still writing, or anything - click on their profile. Click on the author's profile.

I'm not trying to be mean or condescending or anything like that. I'm just exhausted. It's disheartening and frustrating to repeat myself ad nauseam, because someone couldn't take thirty seconds to do the tiniest bit of work to see if I've written lately, if I've written more for their ship, or scan my works to see if I've written what they're asking for. Please. Please. I'm begging.

Click the author's name, and explore before you ask.
