Fuck it Friday x 2 times
I said fuck it and started 2 wips in one day
Meet basketball start Tommy au
Btw huge thanks to @hippolotamus who helped with Tommy's statement 💙
And meet teacher of Tommy's nephew Buck. Justin is mastermind and real ally to his uncle and favorite teacher
Justin’s favorite person always was his uncle Tommy. The man always made him laugh, spoiled him rotten and never made him feel bad about his bad marks, long rants or constant fidgeting. The man was always a warm and safe place Justin knew he could come to when he had some moments with his parents or just wanted to spend time with the coolest person he knew. But Justin also always hated how lonely his uncle was and the older he grew the more he could see how not ok with it his uncle actually was, no matter how he played opposite in front of his sister.
Justin knows part of the deep loneliness his uncle feels is because of how long he was in closet, not letting himself be real him, to love who he actually wanted and then some man he dated wasn’t best so Justin long ago wanted to help his uncle, but never could met a man he would consider worthy of his cool uncle, but also who was definitely into men. Till he met his new science teacher Mr. Buckley.
The man conquered Justin with his huge smile, warm eyes and desire to know and help his students and create the environment, where they all can feel happy and respected. Mr. Buckley wanted them all to have a chance to learn at the maximum level of their capabilities and encouraged them not to study for the sake of grades but for the sake of interest in science and study itself.
He also was the first teacher in all 10 years Justin spent in school who didn’t make any comments about his fidgeting and bad homework, but told him to stay after the lesson week after and asked if he ever was tested for ADHD, and offered Justin to talk to his parents. And that’s how Justin finally found out why he always felt different from others. It’s because he is different. But it’s not a bad thing.
After that Justin knew he needed this man as his another cool uncle and Mr. Buckey’s ig showed he was definitely into men.
So Justin started working.

Season 1 AU. After the events at the Byers house, during that time when Nancy has broken up with him, Steve decides he's turned over a new leaf and so must everyone else. Nicole, Carol, Tommy H. He catches Tommy getting into a fight with one of Eddie's sheep and tells him to knock it off.
Eddie who was about to come in swinging is impressed. And maybe develops a little crush on new Steve.
Steve starts becoming a hard ass on and off the court, pushing his friends to be better people and in Tommy's case a better player. The coaches at first tell Steve to go easy on the team, but when they start seeing the results, they back off and let him at it.
He pushes Tommy to get counseling from Ms Kelly for his anger issues. And it works.
So Steve starts branching out and targeting other bullies and not just his friends.
He breaks up what he will later learn was a deal gone wrong between Eddie and a football player, causing Eddie to blurt "Marry me!"
Steve laughs and tells him to buy him dinner first.
Eddie is mortified. And all the Corroded Coffin boys make fun of him for it.
But Steve starts popping up wherever Eddie is and his poor little cynical heart can't handle it.
Steve is being nicer to people. Including a certain blonde trumpet player in Mrs Click's class. He tells her he has a problem remembering names, but asks her for help in the class (he lost his study buddy, Nancy and picks Robin.)
Now Steve can't be everywhere and so the bullies start being more slick about it. Taunts and sneers. Hip checks and "accidental" tripping.
But one of these bullies target Gareth, a freshman. One of the varsity basketball players, a senior.
So Steve challenges the guy to a game of one on one. If this dude loses, he'll give up his place as captain and make it Steve. If Steve loses, he'll give up basketball and his one man mission to stop the bullying.
Nancy who was in the hall at the time turns to one of her friends and asks her if that was as hot as she thought it was it. The other girl can only nod.
Everyone shows up to this game. And the bully is confident. There is no way that this scrawny little junior is going to best him.
Only for Steve to win.
Everyone is stunned.
Afterwards, Eddie asks if that date was still on the table. Steve laughs and says he'd been waiting all month for Eddie to ask.
Nancy who was one her way to ask Steve to take her back, is upset when she overhears this conversation. She lost her chance with Steve.
Which of course changes season 2 because now that King Steve is king for a different reason, Billy's antics get shut down fast. Not just by Steve, but Carol and Tommy, too.
The possibilities are juicy on how else it changes things.
*ETA: Story here.

I'm taking a break from my regularly scheduled WIP to bring you this Scoops Ahoy AU one-shot. It's a long one.
Eddie was about to enter Scoops Ahoy when he saw Steve in front of the counter, his back to him. He was in full uniform, hat on top and all. He was practicing drawing his scoop like he was a cowboy. Eddie's eyes wondered over his backside, giggling at Steve being a dork, and his heart was beating rapidly. Yeah, he liked that a lot, especially the legs attached to the ass. Steve twirled around and smiled at Eddie. He drew his scoop and pretended to shoot him. Eddie clutched his chest and dropped to the floor. He heard Steve’s laughter ring out, and it was the best thing in the world. Shit. He liked Steve Harrington. Eddie jumped up and took off, barely listening to Steve screaming behind him.
"It was just an ice cream scoop!"
Eddie ran all the way out into the parking lot and jumped into his van. He turned it on and thought about where he wanted to go, and then he cursed. Shit, he was supposed to meet Jeff here for a movie. He turned off his van and jumped when someone knocked on his window. He yelped when he saw that it was Steve Harrington. Eddie looked at him wearily before rolling down his window.
"Making special deliveries now, Cap?" Eddie asked, hoping he was actually as calm as he thought he was being.
"Only for people who drop their wallets," Steve grinned, holding up his wallet.
Eddie squeaked and went to grab it, but Steve pulled it back with a grin.
"Never took you for a bully, Harrington," Eddie smirked.
"Seriously?" Steve asked.
"Yeah, a little bitchy? Yes. Bully? No. Not even you would do that. Too busy hiding secrets in that hair of yours," he said, his eyes twinkling.
"Oh. And what secrets are hiding in your hair, Munson?" Steve asked, leaning on the frame.
Eddie trailed his fingers across Steve’s arm. Shit, was he really flirting with him?
"How about you climb into the back of my van and find out?" Eddie asked.
He surprised both of them with that question. He didn't think that he would be so forward. Steve grinned.
"Okay, but I only have fifteen minutes," Steve said he set his watch.
Steve started walking around to the other side, and Eddie quickly scrambled into the back. He flopped onto his back and onto the blanket he kept in the van. Steve opened the door, crawled into the van, and closed the door behind him, lying down beside Eddie.
"So, I have to ask," Steve said, leaning on his elbow. "Why did you run away when I shot you with my ice cream scoop?"
"Uh, there was a bee. A really big bee," Eddie said.
"A big bee, huh?" Steve asked.
"Yeah. I, uh, I really didn't think I ever liked bees before, but I saw this bee, and it was actually kind of cute. A cute dorky bee," Eddie said. "It scared me how much I liked this bee."
"So, was this bee blue, white, and red?" Steve grinned.
"Hmm, you cracked my code," Eddie said. "Damn."
"So is it the fact that I'm a jock or the fact that I'm a guy?" He asked.
"I've always liked women, and I never even questioned it even when other people assumed it about me," Eddie said. "And they always did."
"Funny, people always assumed I was straight even though I wanted them to think otherwise," Steve said.
"I'm obvious. You're not," Eddie grinned.
Steve laughed and placed his hand on his chest, dragging his nails gently across his chest.
"So, you really didn't think I was an asshole in high school?" Steve asked.
"No, mostly because I know how much you tried to stop the basketball players from beating the shit out of us," Eddie said. "Even Tommy Hagan was harmless. He was all talk and too much of a chicken shit to actually do anything about it. Plus, Gareth told me all about how you once stopped Tommy Hayes from beating the shit out of him."
"I fucking hate that guy, him and Jason Carver both. I tried to go to Principal Higgins about it, but he seemed like he was really out to get you. I don't what the fuck that guy's problem with you is but I kind of wanted to kick his ass," Steve scoffed.
"There's a picture," Eddie grinned. "So, did you always know you liked guys? I mean, I should have known at some point, right?"
"I don't think that you can put an exact time frame on something like this, especially since it's different for everyone. I was reading a parenting book, and it suggested that you shouldn't compare your child with other children because they grow and develop at like different rates," Steve said. "I figure that probably works the same with sexuality too."
"Why were you reading a parenting book?" Eddie asked.
"Oh, these kids that I babysit have been having nightmares, and I've been trying to figure out the best way to help them," Steve said.
Eddie pinned him down and climbed on top of him. Steve looked at him in surprise.
"You're the fucking cutest," Eddie said.
He leaned down and kissed him. Eddie mewed softly against his mouth when Steve kissed him back and grabbed the back of his head. His other hand was pressed against Eddie's lower back. Eddie kissed him roughly, rocking his hips against his. He liked the feeling of Steve���s lips against his and the way his hands felt in his hair. He definitely liked the way his hand felt against his backside. His entire body was buzzing. Eddie reached behind him to grab Steve’s hand and moved it so it was cupping his butt. Steve chuckled against his mouth. Suddenly, the van door flew open, causing them to break the kiss. Jeff stood there, staring at the scene with wide eyes.
"Hey, man," Eddie said casually as he continued to straddle Steve Harrington.
He couldn't explain this one away, considering Steve’s hand was on his ass.
"What?!" Jeff exclaimed.
"This is exactly what it looks like," Eddie said.
"I didn't know that you were into guys," Jeff said, looking at them both.
"Is this going to be a problem?" Steve asked with wide eyes, and Jeff laughed.
"No, man, I'm gay," Jeff said, and Steve breathed a sigh of relief.
"You didn't know I was into guys?" Eddie asked with a scoff. "I didn't know I was into guys."
"So, new discovery then?" Jeff asked, and Eddie nodded. "Want me to close the door?"
Jeff wiggled his eyebrows at Eddie. He was about to reply when Steve’s watch went off. Eddie frowned.
"Damn it!" Steve cursed. "I have to get back to work."
"We were making out longer than we thought," Eddie said with grin. "Can we do this again?"
"Yeah, you got a pen?" Steve asked.
Eddie dove towards the front of his van, grabbing a pen out of a cup holder. Steve whistled at his ass and Eddie cackled as he turned around, handing Steve the pen. Steve grabbed his arm and began writing numbers into Eddie's skin. Once he was finished, he bent down and blew on the ink to let it dry, looking directly at Eddie while he did it. Eddie shuddered as his breath hit his skin.
"Call me," Steve winked and hopped out of the van. "See you . . .?"
"Jeff," he replied.
"Jeff," Steve said, nodding at him and walking off.
"Wait, my wallet!" Eddie exclaimed.
"Check your back pocket!" Steve yelled.
Eddie frowned and checked his back pocket. Sure enough, his wallet was there.
"You sexy magician," Eddie muttered.
"Dude, that thing with the number was insanely hot," Jeff said. "Are you going to be able to concentrate on the movie?"
"I'm going to do something to screw this up. I know it!" Eddie exclaimed and buried his head into the blanket.
A couple of weeks later, and so far, Eddie hadn't screwed anything up. It was going well for him and Steve. He had called Steve that very same night, and they had talked for an hour before agreeing to meet at Steve's house for their first date. The asshole had cooked him dinner and everything. Eddie had insisted on cleaning the dishes with Steve, which had turned into them splashing soapy water at each other. After that, they sprawled onto the couch to watch TV, which had turned into a heavy makeout session that had Eddie losing his shirt and Steve nibbling on his tattoos. According to Steve, they're hot. Now, here he was bouncing into Scoops Ahoy to visit Steve. Steve’s co-worker, Robin, rolled her eyes at him.
"Hey, Stevie, is it your breaktime yet?" Eddie grinned.
"Yes, and for the love of God, do your little drug deal in the storage closet," Robin said. "If you must."
Steve grinned as he pulled Eddie into the break room and then into the storage closet, turning the lock.
"She thinks I'm selling you drugs," Eddie laughed as Steve pushed him up against the wall.
"Yeah, I got you something," Steve smiled and started digging around in his pockets.
"Yeah, you do," Eddie wiggled his eyebrows.
"No, not that," Steve snorted. "Although, maybe later if you're a good boy. Here."
He pulled a bumblebee pin out of his pocket. Eddie grinned and took it, an overwhelming wave or affection for the guy in front of him. He quickly added it to the pins on his vest.
"Thanks, Stevie," Eddie said and kissed him softly before cooing at him. "Sweet boy."
Steve blushed as he fiddled with the pin on his vest.
"I was hoping to ask you a question, and I'd get if you don't want to or if you want to keep thing the way they are but - ," Steve said.
"Will you be my boyfriend?" Eddie blurted out.
"Yeah!" He exclaimed, his eyes bright. "That's what I was going to ask you."
"You should know that I've never wanted to be someone's boyfriend before, not until you came along," Eddie said. "I don't know even know how to be a boyfriend."
"We'll figure it out together," Steve grinned.
Eddie kissed him, pulling his body close to his as he wrapped his arms around his neck. Steve smiled against his lips, slipping his tongue into his mouth. Suddenly, the door opened, and Robin burst in.
"I need help - Shit!" Robin exclaimed.
"I, uh, lost something," Eddie said.
"What? Did you lose your keys in his mouth?" Robin asked.
"I might have," Eddie scowled.
"And you searched for them with your tongue?" She asked.
"It's really good search method," he said.
"Try again," she said.
"He really wanted a discount," Eddie said.
"Hm, that's a little more believable," Robin said.
"Steve," Eddie whined.
"Relax, Munson, I'm a lesbian," Robin said.
"Really?" Eddie and Steve grinned.
"Yeah, I hate to pull you away from your boyfriend, but there are a lot of customers now, and I need help," Robin said softly. "Oh, did you know that the lock on this door is broken?"
"I do now," Steve replied.
"Nice bee pin, Munson," Robin said.
"Thanks, my new boyfriend gave it to me," he said, batting his eyelashes at Steve.
"That's cute," Robin said. "He pinned you."
"I know! We're sooo going steady. I'm hoping he'll give me his letterman and takes me to the sock hop," Eddie squealed, batting his eyelashes again.
"Okay," Steve rolled his eyes and pushed them out of the closet. "You two are not becoming friends."
"We're all becoming friends, Harrington," Robin replied.
"Oh. Well, that's okay then," Steve said softly.
And friends the three of them did become. Eddie even invited them to see their band play at the Hideout. They had both enjoyed it immensely to his delight. Robin and Jeff had hit it off, most likely laughing about Eddie and Steve. Eddie didn't think that Steve would pull him into the bathroom and get on his knees for him. He didn't think he was that good, but Steve, apparently, thought differently. Steve had been a big hit with all of his friends, especially when he remembered Gareth by making note of the fact that he didn't have his braces anymore. The only thing left to do was introduce Steve to his uncle. Coming out to Wayne had been easy because it didn't change anything between them like he thought it would.
"You're my nephew, and I'm still your uncle. If I didn't give up on you when you robbed that truck full of weed, then there is nothing you can do or be that's gonna scare me off, son," Wayne said.
Now, here they were, waiting for Steve to arrive. He should have been here by now. Eddie was pacing the floor of the living room, his stomach in knots.
"Relax, son, he's going to be here," Wayne said.
"I feel like something is wrong. Something is seriously wrong," Eddie frowned.
Suddenly, there was a loud mechanical roaring sound like the sound of a helicopter. Eddie and Wayne walked outside to find several military looking helicopters flying overhead. Eddie quickly scrambled on top of the trailer to see where they were flying. Eddie blanched when he saw the smoke, and he quickly scrambled back down.
"What?" Wayne asked.
"There's smoke coming from Starcourt," Eddie said. "Steve works there. I need to go!"
"We're both going, and I'll drive," Wayne said, clapping a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"I knew it, I knew it," Eddie kept muttering as they drove.
When they pulled up to Starcourt, they found a military blockade in front of the mall. They were denied entry as soon as they walked up. Wayne pulled him aside.
"I'll distract them. You go find your boy," he said.
Eddie looked at him doubtfully for a moment before Wayne started yelling at the guards. Eddie took the opportunity to run past them.
"STEVE! STEVE?!" Eddie shrieked as he fought through people's arms.
He was full on sobbing, his eyes blurry with tears. He didn't notice until he ran into Hopper.
"Munson, what the hell are you doing here?" Hopper asked.
"I'm looking for Steve. Is he okay? He's not - tell me he's not - " Eddie started to babble.
"EDDIE?!" Steve’s voice sounded from across the parking lot.
Eddie let out a strangled sob and ran across the parking lot. He threw his arms around Steve’s neck, hugging him tightly. Steve was stunned for a moment, but he soon wrapped his arms around Eddie, hugging him back just as tightly. Eddie pulled back slightly, but not out of his arms.
"Oh my God, baby, what happened to your face?" Eddie asked and then sighed. "It's okay. You don't have to talk about it right now. I'm just glad you're okay."
"Steve. . .who is this guy, and why did he just call you baby?" A curly haired boy in a hat asked.
"This must be Dustin," Eddie grinned.
"Oh, you talked about me?" Dustin asked with a grin.
"Dustin, this is Eddie Munson," Steve rolled his eyes.
"Oh! He's the friend you wouldn't shut up about," Dustin said.
"You wouldn't shut up about little old me?" Eddie batted his eyelashes at him and paused. "You can tell your kids, I don't mind."
"Eddie's my boyfriend," Steve said.
"Boyfriend?!" Dustin and the kids exclaimed.
"Eddie, the redhead is Max Mayfield, El Hopper, Lucas Sinclair, Mike Wheeler, and this is - "
"Will, right?" Eddie asked.
"Oh my God! You're the guy from the music store!" Will exclaimed excitedly.
"Huh?" Steve asked.
"Mom! It's that guy from the music store that I told you about!" Will said excitedly. "The one who took the baseball for me!"
A short woman with brown hair and brown eyes came wondering over.
"You're the one who did that for my boy?" She asked.
"Yeah," Eddie said.
"Thank you. I'm Joyce Byers, by the way," she said and hugged him tightly. "Did I just hear you're Steve’s boyfriend?"
"Yes," he said.
"Oh, that's so great. I'm happy for you, Steve. He sounds like a great guy," Joyce said. "You guys are cute."
"Thanks, Joyce," Steve smiled.
"I didn't know you were gay, Steve," Mike said, not unkindly.
"We're bisexual," Steve and Eddie said in unison.
"We like both," Eddie explained when some of them looked confused.
"You can do that?!" Lucas exclaimed.
"Yes, idiot," Max said. "I think it's so cool that you're both bisexual."
"We think so too," Steve said.
He felt Steve leaning against him, and he looked over at him in concern.
"I'm going to get this one to a hospital," Eddie said.
Robin parted her way through the kids and stood on Steve’s other side.
"I'm going with you," Robin said.
"I don't need to go to the hospital," Steve said.
"Yes, dingus, you do," Robin said.
"I'm not taking no for an answer, sweetheart," Eddie said.
"Okay," Steve said as Eddie slipped an arm around his waist.
His uncle was waiting by the van, and he grimaced at the sight of Steve.
"You okay, son?" Wayne asked.
"He will be once he gets to the hospital," Eddie said.
"You must be Wayne. I'm glad to finally meet you. Wish it was under better circumstances, though," Steve said.
"Me too, son," Wayne said and helped Eddie get him into the van.
Robin climbed up front while Eddie climbed in the back with Steve. He pulled him into his arms as Wayne drove off.
"You scared the hell out of me," Eddie whispered.
"Sorry," Steve replied.
"Nothing to apologize for," Eddie said. "I'm glad you're here."
"Me too," Steve said.
"Steve - I, uh, - " Eddie said nervously.
"Yeah?" Steve asked.
"I love you," Eddie whispered.
Steve picked his head up and gazed at him. It was true. He loved him. This time, he wasn't going to run away or sabotage it. The only direction he wanted to run to was towards Steve.
"I love you too," Steve said.
Suddenly, there came a loud sniffle from up front.
"Uncle Wayne, are you crying?" Eddie asked.
"No!" Wayne exclaimed, and Eddie cackled. "Shut up, boy!"
Eddie threw his head back and laughed. His life was complete.

This stupid "Your Name" Bucktommy AU won't leave my brain, and while I don't have enough faith in my writing skills to actually write the damn thing (and it would be my first fanfic... ever?? and that's a project that seems a bit too big for me lmao), I DID write down what I'm picturing some of the "rules" Buck and Tommy have for each other while in the other's body. Mostly just for fun. (Because Tommy would be switching in 2006, the iPhone does not exist yet, so all of his notes are written in an actual physical journal. All of Buck's notes would be on the Notes app of his phone)
TOMMY: 1) Evan, stop running into burning buildings when you don’t have to while in my body. If I wake up in a hospital bed for the fifth time this month, I might actually lose it.
its part of the job to save as many ppl as possible. also u don’t even feel the pain when i get injured in ur body.
You’re right, I don’t. Unfortunately, the pain from having a wooden beam fall on you doesn't just magically go away when we swap. Just... be more careful? Please?
fine. i’ll try and keep ur hospital visits to a minimum.
2) Can you stop flirting with people on calls? Or at the very least give them your number and not mine? In the last week alone my contact list has nearly doubled because you keep giving people my number.
dude its not my fault you’re more popular while i’m you. just think of it as me being ur wingman! how u dont have a girlfriend is beyond me btw. hot chicks love firefighters and ur a good looking dude
Jesus Christ, Evan. For the last time, I’m single by choice.
3) Don’t shower while in my body
already dont
4) Don’t go to the bathroom while in my body
done
5) In fact, unless you’re at work, don’t change any of my clothes while in my body.
fair
6) Do you really need to spend so much of my paychecks on cooking supplies? I have enough pots and pans already.
whats the point of a pantry if its half empty. be thankful ur getting actual food now via my leftovers instead of the utter tragedy that was the state of ur fridge when we first started swapping places.
7) Don’t make a scene while at work.
your boss sucks ass and his stupid orders are going to get people killed. im not gonna listen to him if hes making bad calls while lives are on the line
Evan.
8) Don’t pick up the phone when my dad calls.
got it
BUCK: 1) quit going to eddie’s basketball pickup games. he keeps inviting me while i’m in my own body and its getting harder and harder to come up with excuses as to why i can’t go. it's kinda awkward.
I thought you’d be more grateful, Evan. You’re the coolest guy on the court when I’m you.
2) are you making movie references when ur me? bc chim keeps asking when i got so “cultured” and the other day maddie asked when i watched the princess bride.
You haven’t seen the Princess Bride? I’m leaving you a surprise for tomorrow. Check your couch when you wake up.
did you spend my OWN money on a dvd??? i don’t even own a dvd player. i own every streaming service imaginable.
3) keep the finger guns to a minimum?? idk why you do them so much but both hen and chim have said smth abt it
4) if u get a call from someone called connor or kameron on my phone just let it go to voicemail its personal stuff and i'll deal with it
Evan, you could have told me you agreed to be a sperm donor yourself. Finding out because Connor and Kameron showed up at the fire house was more of a shock than finding out over these memos would have been.
they did what?????
5) don’t talk to my parents
Done.
6) No rule about undressing?
dude idc. i’m not gonna stop you from taking a piss in my body if u need to. as long as you like. don’t have sex with someone while you’re me? oh wait hang on i DO have a rule about undressing
7) DON’T HAVE ANY RANDOM HOOK UPS IN MY BODY.
Wasn’t planning on it, but good to know.
#if anyone DOES actually wanna write this au go ahead#i probably wont myself for reasons stated above#tommy kinard#evan buckley#bucktommy#911 abc#911

Surprise, Billy
Summary: You and Billy are met with Ghostface.
Warnings: Ghostface!AU, no pronouns and no description of reader, character deaths (not reader), stabbing, blood, slight steve x reader
WC: 720
AN: first stranger things fic ahh and also first scream au! feedback is appreciated pls and thank you <3
“You got nothin’ to worry about,” Billy puffs up his chest, “I’ll protect you.”
“Thanks, Billy.” You gave him a feeble smile. Though your expression was strained, he still gave you a wink before moving to check the latch on your bedroom window.
Recently the town had been plagued by a series of murders. First, Barbara Holland and Nancy Wheeler, then Carol Perkins and her boyfriend Tommy Hagan, and, most recently, Jason Carver. Everybody was panicked, the cops couldn’t get a lead on the serial killer (whom they’d named ‘Ghostface’ due to witnesses reports about the figure’s mask), and your classmates were getting antsy with the assigned curfew.
After overhearing you talking to your friends about your parents leaving town for the weekend, Billy offered to come over to your house tonight to “protect you.” He insisted even after you declined, walking away with an “I’ll be over at 8!�� before you could get another word out.
He had taken an interest in you almost immediately after moving to Hawkins and kept trying to get you to go out with him. It’s as if the word ‘no’ didn’t exist in his vocabulary. Now, he was going over all the windows in your living room, making sure they were locked while boasting about how he thought the panic over the serial killer was stupid. You followed him throughout the house, smiling and nodding, hoping he would stop talking, finish quickly, and leave.
A sudden BANG! broke your train of thought.
“What was that?” Billy asked, turning away from the window to look at you, eyes wide.
“I don’t know..” You replied, confusedly. “Sounds like it came from outside.”
He stood still for a moment, listening for any other odd sounds before turning back to the window. You looked at your watch, blocking out his rant about “all the good players on the basketball team ending up dead” when another sound grabbed your attention.
“What the hell.” Billy muttered under his breath as he creeped towards the doorframe that led out to the hallway. “That was not outside.”
“What do you think it is?” You asked him slowly. “Do you think it’s the killer?”
“No,” he scoffed. Still, he hesitated before stepping out into the hallway, head frantically swinging back and forth.
You followed him as he walked slowly through the house, examining each room. Once the kitchen was deemed clear, he turned to you, cocky smirk back on his face.
“Nothing here.” He said smugly. “Guess I scared-”BANG He yelped, spinning around, now face to face with Ghostface. You let out a gasp, watching with wide eyes as Ghostface slashed his knife towards Billy. He managed to dodge the attack, roughly shoving the killer away before turning towards you.
He grabbed your arm, forcefully pulling you through the house to the front door. You stumbled in the darkness of the hallway as you tried to keep up with his speed. Your heart felt as if it was about to burst and your hands were shaking from adrenaline. As the both of you rounded the corner, you could see the glow of the streetlight through the windowpanes of the door. Like moths to a flame you raced toward it, safety a mere ten steps away.
Just as you reached the entry way, the masked figure appeared. Billy flinched back, only to crash into you, your chest hitting his back from his abrupt stop. That moment was all Ghostface needed to swing his knife into Billy’s chest. Billy fell to the floor and Ghostface followed.
You squealed as he brought the knife down again, and again, and again until Billy’s blood was splattered all over you and the walls, and his wailing pleas finally stopped.
Ghostface stood from his kneeled position over the body. He wiped the bloody knife against his sleeve before reaching towards his mask. As the white mask was pulled off of his face, his hood fell and you were met with Steve Harrington’s grinning face.
You burst out a laugh, matching his grin.
“Holy shit!" you giggled, "That was a good one!”
He laughed along with you as he stepped over Billy, taking your bloody face into his gloved hands and giving you a searing kiss.

An AU where Steve doesn’t actually suck at basketball, and captains a pretty good team. The week Billy got to Hawkins, Steve was having an off week, okay? But he gets his shit together.
So when Billy joins the actual team instead of playing them during gym class, it’s a whole other game. Harrington runs a tight ship. Every player has to bring their best at every practice. Every meet. Every game. Billy’s still the best player they have, but the court belongs to Steve Harrington. And the team is loyal to him. In the court he runs them haggard, but off the court he’s the team dad. Need a ride? He’s there. Grades are slipping? He’ll find you a tutor. Girlfriend trouble? He’ll bring the beer. We’re all in this together, team.
After he beat the shit out of Steve, Billy’s surprised he made it on the team, but Steve even shook his hand before his first practice, welcomed him in front of the team, bruises all over his face. If Steve’s good player, he’s a better strategist, and his actual talent is keeping everyone in line. Once, when Tommy was still in his jealous snit over Wheeler and throwing fouls everywhere, Steve gave him the mother of all dressing downs in front of the whole team.
“Are we a team or what, Hagan?” Steve said, hands on his hips.
“We’re a team,” Tommy mumbled, eyes cast to the floor.
“Are we a team, WHAT?”
“We’re a team, Captain!”
Billy had to fight down a boner through the rest of practice that day.

Part 2 of My Steddie mean girls au
Part 1
Steve feels like an asshole.
He really didn't mean to do this. What was the point really? To be popular? How stupid is he. He ruined his only chance at real friends. And for what? To mess with Carol? Yeah sure she's a bitch but why does that matter? And Tommy? Yeah he doesn't even really want him. Steve just wanted to get back at Carol.
God he's pathetic.
And Eddie. Jesus fucking christ. Eddie. He's been so nice and sweet to Steve and he just basically threw it all away. He took a bit fat dump on their friendship and a chance at something more for nothing. And Robin, she was so kind to him too. He shakes his head. He needs to fix this now.
Steve gets up, wipes his face and takes the canvas with him. He doesn't even glance at the painting knowing if he did he would stare at it for hours. As soon as Steve is 10 feet from his house he can feel the music pumping through his feet. Shit. The party, he thinks. He sighs as he walks closer to the door.
When he walks in the music screams in his ears. God I'm going to get a massive headache after this. One of the basketball players comes up to him, Steve thinks his name is Jake? Jason?, something with a J.
"Hey Steve. Had a good time with Hagan, huh." He said sluggishly.
"Umm, yeah I guess." Steve replied wanting to get away from him.
"You guess? Tommy told me you loved it."Jason? said.
"Loved what?" He was so confused they only ever kisse-.
Oh. My. God. Did Tommy tell people they fucked?
"Ummm, you guys did fuck. Right?" The guy - Jake? No Jason definitely Jason - said.
"No?! What are you talking about? We barley even made out!" Steve replied slightly frantic and a little angry at Tommy for lying.
"OK, jeez. Just asking! That's just what I heard. Don't shoot the messenger and all that shit." Jason mumbled as he began to walk away.
Steve stood there in shock and anger. He couldn't believe this. He needs to think but he can't because of this stupid fucking party. That's it he can't take it anymore. Steve power walks to where he knows the radio is and full on unplugs it. He gets on top of his fireplace and screams at the, now confused, party-goers.
"That's it! Party's over, guys! Go home!" He yells over all the protests. He sees Tommy and his friends stare at him with annoyed looks. Steve watches as Tommy tells his friends something and goes to walk towards where Steve is. "Dude, what the fuck?!" He says.
"What?" Steve replies slightly confused but with left-over irritation spilling from his voice. "What do you mean, what? You stopped the music and told everyone to go home!" Tommy argued but Steve thought it was pointless because he was, So. Fucking. Done. "And?! It's my house and my party. I can do what I want." Steve huffed, "Now, get the fuck out of my house, Tommy!" He practically yells at him.
Tommy just stands there in shock not knowing what to do. "Well?! What are you waiting for? Leave!" Steve yells this time. Not just at Tommy, but instead at everyone who stayed standing there like complete idiots. They all scramble to get their stuff and rush out the door. Tommy shakes his head and starts to walk away. Before he leaves he tells Steve, "You are not as cool as I thought you were." Then he walks away with all his friends. They keep looking back at him and giving him looks.
Steve feels like a total fool. Who was he to think that Tommy was an actual good person? God he's a complete buffoon. As time went on and the last people trickled out he began to clean. After around 5 minutes later he felt a tap on his shoulder. He quickly turned around.
The face he saw was definitely not one he'd thought it would be.

Alright gay people. Be prepared to lose your shit:
Ronance Lemonade Mouth AU
Nancy is Stella!!! Because I said so!!! Nancy deserves a rebel era and I can so see her being upset about the arts funding being cut for sports, including journalism. Electric guitar player Nancy my beloved >>>
Robin is Olivia, the shy, socially awkward songwriter and singer!!! Going to have her living with Steve as opposed to a grandma or something, but keeping the cat (who ironically in the movie is named Nancy). Might keep the her dad is in prison part? Undecided on how I’m translating Olivia’s background to Robin.
Speaking of Steve, he gets to be Charlie, the drummer! Keeping the pretty hair and parental pressure, but instead of wanting him to go to Stanford or play soccer, his dad wants him to join the insurance firm.
Eddie is Wen because Stella/Wen friendship > Nancy/Eddie besties ofc. Rather than coming in with rap, he adds amazing guitar riffs and heavy metal elements to the band’s sound. His family trouble involves settling in with Wayne, rather than dealing with a new stepmom.
And Mo was hard to decide, but!!! Our own Chrissy Cunningham. Her mom puts so much pressure on her to be the perfect daughter and Mo’s relationship with the one guy translates far too well to Chrissy’s relationship with Jason. Chrissy bass player arc omfg.
The rival band includes Jason, Billy (the one shitty guy who always starts drama), Tommy H, and Lucas (mirroring the basketball team here). Lucas tries to settle the drama throughout the AU.
The story begins when everyone gets detention. Robin and Chrissy were skipping class, Nancy blew up at someone about a news segment. Eddie got mad at a teacher, and Steve hit someone with a basketball (on accident).
The music teacher is Joyce and she leaves them all alone and that goofy little music moment happens and they all sing together.
Instead of Mel’s Lemonade, hear me out: Argyle’s Lemonade.
Robin has severe stage fright, but the band helps her get through it, especially Nancy. She and Steve live together. Eddie is often over to help with lyrics. She has an old ass cat that’s the last thing she has of her mother, just like Olivia.
Nancy gets to be rebellious in this fic. Her dad thinks she should just settle for a white picket fence (when he bothers to pay attention to her at all), her mom doesn’t really fight it, so Nancy rebels. She’s also getting the school newspaper together after the funding cut. Tell me this girl isn’t the kind to protest lack of free speech and the removal of the lemonade machine.
Eddie was only just sent to Wayne. It’s supposed to be temporary. In the same way Wen gets used to his stepmom, Eddie has to get used to Wayne and they do eventually grow closer. The scene where it’s revealed that Wen’s stepmom is moving in is instead Eddie arriving home to all of his belongings there in boxes and his parents nowhere to be seen—his stay is suddenly much more permanent.
Steve’s dad wants him to be an athlete (basketball) and join the insurance firm, but Steve just doesn’t want that. He quits basketball for the band and there’s some family struggle.
Rethinking the living situation, I may have Robin and Steve move in together partway through the story as opposed to the beginning, but I’m unsure where that leaves Robin. Her background is the hardest to work out.
Chrissy learns to stand on her own, gets away from her mom’s expectations, and sees Jason as the manipulative shitheel he is. Naturally she falls for one of the band’s biggest fans: Vickie.
Dustin plays the role of the AV kid that helps the band throughout the movie. He shows Nancy around in the beginning, explains the budget cut, and he makes the first vinyls for the band.
Nancy gets to rock Billy’s shit because I said so.
In the end scene, it’s Max and Lucas who save the day. Lucas leaves the rival band to help Lemonade Mouth out, Max is the first person in the crowd to start singing.
Steddie is established already. Ronance is the focus. Any of the Wen/Olivia scenes will be Ronance instead because I said so. Rumors circulate that Eddie and Robin are dating because Steddie keeps quiet and Robin isn’t out and the whole band finds it hilarious.

My Main Ships are Lumax, Stomarol, and platonic/qpr Stobin.
Also a big fan of Stoncy, Rockie/Rovickie, Buckingham, Elumax, Willumax, Delumax, Stancy, Greatwise, and plenty of polycule configurations.
I'm also a huge fan of transfem!Steve, and it is the ONLY time you will ever see me consider Stobin in an anywhere close to romantic light. Robin is a lesbian and no amount of Steve love is going to change that <3
Not really into character bashing, but also am into reading characters as nuanced and flawed. Not a fan of the flat characterizations that comprise of most of popular fanon.

Hi!! Could you tell me more about basketball player tommy?
Hi James 😊💙
I talked about it here
And a snippet:
“Yes, Eddie it’s true, but can I ask you a question?”
“Oh my god, Buck, is Tommy Kinard listening to our conversation?”
“Yeah, he-he is here and you’re on speaker.”
“Fucking hell, why didn’t you you tell me?” Eddie screams in the phone with his voice a little higher, but then he takes deep breaths for a little and with normal voice speaks again. “Hi, Mr. Kinard, yes, of course, you can ask me your question.”
“It’s just Tommy, Eddie. And how did you find out about us?”
“I saw the picture on the twitter firstly not even understood it was Buck and scrolled, bu then was like ‘wait, i know this head and shirt’, and scrolled back and here is my best friend on romantic dinner with Tommy Kinard and I called him because how dared he hide it from me for 9 months,” by the sounds on the phone Tommy can say Eddie moves inside his house while he takes his phone and opens twitter, searching for the post Eddie talks about. “Waaaaaait, you two didn’t know about the photo? So it wasn’t feigned ignorance from TMZ about who is in the photo with you, Tommy? You two didn’t plan to be out like that?” Now is the moment Eddie’s voice gets angrier just when Tommy sees the photo and shows it to Evan, who’s eyes go red.

Sir Steve, Knight Protectorate Part 2
I am absolutely thrilled with how well the first chapter did. Thank you everyone for your support. If you requested to be on the tag list and aren't that means I ran out of room and so so sorry.
You can follow me or the tag #knight protectorate au, as that is the tag I will be using for the series I do with this verse. I hope that helps!
Here we get Steve to the rescue and Eddie instantly heart-eyes. Poor Jeff.
Part 1
~
Steve was getting more push back then he thought he would, but at the same time it was from the people he was expecting.
“Admit it,” Carol said, “you know I’m right. The only reason Tammy is involved in any thing music related is because Mummy Dearest is paying for it all. Her singing is horrible.”
Steve tried to hide his smile, but he really couldn’t.
“See?” she shrieked in glee. “I just don’t know why you won’t let me tell her. Someone needs to before she gets into her head she’s going to be famous or some shit.”
“Because it wouldn’t do anything but make her mad,” he reasoned. “Then she’d tell her mom, and her mom would tell your mom and your mom would ground your ass because they are in the same golfing club or some shit.”
Carol blinked at him for a moment or two and then shrugged. “Yeah, all right. You have a point. But I can still mock her behind her back, right?”
Steve threw back his head and laughed.
“Just keep it between us, yeah?”
She tilted her head to the side and then shrugged. “I guess I could do that.”
He heaved a sigh of relief and was just grateful for the smallest concession she was willing to make.
Everyone knew Carol was still saying shit, but at least she was only saying it to Steve.
“God, Abby,” Nicole whined, “where did you get that dress the trash bin behind Melvand’s?” She laughed as Abby tugged on her the hem of her denim dress. It was wrinkled in that way denim will some times get when it’s put into shapes it wasn’t meant for.
“Fuck off, Nicole,” Steve barked. “You have a dress just like it, it’s just Levi instead of some off brand.”
Nicole’s jaw dropped and whirled on Steve. “Is this the thanks I get for finding that little creep for you?”
Steve raised his eyebrow in disdain. “Helping a guy out doesn’t mean you get to shit on everyone else. She isn’t hurting you. She’s just walking in the hall. And for fuck’s sake, she’s a freshman. We’re all gross at that age. Give it up.”
Nicole’s jaw clicked shut and she turned on her heel, running away. The gathered crowd laughed at her retreating form.
“It’s not funny, assholes,” he huffed. “Laughing at Abby being bullied is the same as laughing at Nicole getting told off for it. It’s still rude.”
The hall went deathly quiet.
Tommy came bounding up to Steve and Carol. “Larry Wiggins just got laid out by Munson trying to hassle him out of some dope.”
Steve grimaced. “Everyone knows that Munson doesn’t sell anything hard on school property. He likes avoiding felony charges.”
Tommy grinned, bouncing on the pads of his toes. “That’s what makes it so hilarious. Munson doesn’t even deal on Tuesdays so he didn’t even have weed to offer him to back off.”
“So Larry takes a swing at Munson and gets flattened for it?” Steve guessed with a heavy sigh.
“Yup!”
Carol giggled as Steve sighed again.
“One of these days a football player is going to knock that guy’s pearly whites out,” he said, shaking his head.
“Oohhh...” Tommy said wincing, pulling his arms up to his chest. “That would be ug-lee!”
Steve hummed his agreement.
~
Look, despite what Eddie’s teachers thought, he wasn’t stupid. After the incident with Wiggins on the basketball team, he had refused to do deals alone.
But then meathead jocks barely used their brains to drool, like alone think.
Eddie was on his way to his picnic table where Doug had been waiting for him when this football player came out of literal nowhere to slam him against a tree.
Eddie’s head swam as he tried to squeeze away his sudden double vision. “What the fuck, man?”
When he could see the captain of the football team, Bobby Vincent, was grabbing him by the collar and shoving him up against the tree.
Bobby pulled out a nearly empty baggie of weed. “You shorted me, asshole. You call this a gram?”
“It was when I sold it to you,” Eddie insisted, hands coming up to grab Bobby’s hand at his throat. “I don’t short. It’s bad for business.” He certainly didn’t short people who throw him around like a rag doll for crying out loud. He didn’t have a death wish.
“You’re going to give me a replacement for free,” Bobby sneered, “aren’t you, pretty boy?”
Eddie tried to yank on the football player’s hand to get him to release him, but the white knuckle grip refused to budge. “I can’t give you shit, man. My supplier would kill me. I’ve got more to think about then just one customer.”
He could see the punch coming and knew there was nothing he could do to stop it. He closed his eyes against the pain he knew was coming.
But the pain never came. He peeked out of one eye and was shocked to see Steve Harrington holding meathead’s wrist. They were both stock still. Which Eddie couldn’t figure it out, he had to open his other eye to see the full tableau in front of him.
Steve had a grip on Bobby’s wrist, that was certainly true, but that wasn’t what had the football player by the short and curlies. Oh no. In Steve’s other hand was a small but very deadly pocket knife. A knife that was current pressed to the ribs on the side of the raised arm. Suddenly Eddie was feeling weak in the knees for a very different reason.
“Hey, Bobby,” Steve said cheerfully, “you weren’t going to hit someone because you’re too shit poor to buy your own weed, were you?”
Bobby looked down at the knife in Steve’s hands and then back up at his face. Bobby snarled and moved to wrench his hand out of Steve’s grasp, but the blade dug deeper. He stopped again and looked over at Eddie who was just as shocked he was at the whole thing.
Like where the fuck did Steve get that knife and why was he carrying it in the first place?
“You going to stick up for this trash, Harrington?” Bobby hissed. “Wheeler made you soft.”
Eddie and Steve both look down at the knife in Steve’s hand and then back up at the football player.
“Just because I’ve been putting my foot down more on the bullying lately,” Steve said, pressing the knife a little further causing Bobby to wince, “doesn’t mean that this is new. I’ve always called you assholes out on it, but now I’m doing something about it. So why don’t you run along and tell all your friends that the king has returned.”
Bobby’s eyes went wide and he nodded. Steve released the wrist first and then stepped back. He waved the knife, indicating Bobby should get a move on and he did. He ran like hell.
“Marry me!” Eddie squeaked as his knees buckled in relief.
Steve dropped the knife and surged forward to catch him before he hit the ground. Just then Jeff showed up and stared at them for a moment.
“Uhh...” he muttered. “Did I miss something?” His tongue worried one of the brackets on his braces as both Eddie and Steve turned to him.
Steve turned a bright shade of red when he realized how this might look to someone else. He helped Eddie get his feet under him and then took a step back. He ran his fingers through his hair and side-eyed Eddie.
“Maybe ask a guy on a date first, yeah?” he murmured before taking off, scooping up the knife up on his way out. Leaving behind two very confused metalheads in his wake.
Well, one confused metalhead and one confused and horny metalhead.
Jeff turned to Eddie. “You want to tell me what the fuck that was about?” He jutted his thumb at the space in the trees that Steve had vanished into.
So Eddie told him.
“And um... I didn’t get my ass beat so...our King is some flavor of queer?” He meant that as a statement, but it came out as more of a question, because holy fuck that was crazy to think about.
Jeff looked at him for a long moment. “I understand you are currently having a gay panic right now, but um...shouldn’t you be more concerned with the fact that he had that knife on him in the first place? Because seriously, does Steve Harrington seem the type to be carrying around any kind of weapon?”
Eddie blinked a couple of times before he turned to look down the path both jocks had taken with a tinge more fear then he had before.
“That is a fair question, Sir Jeffrey,” he agreed. “But as it has saved this lowly jester’s ass, let’s give our king a pass, shall we?”
Jeff licked his lips slowly and then nodded. Because whatever happened to Steve that frightened him enough to start carrying a knife to school with him, he would much rather not know.
~
News spread fast. Steve Harrington was not to be trifled with and if you were caught bullying, he would make it his problem.
The faculty noticed, because how could they not. When someone makes it their one man mission to make the school safe for everyone, it wasn’t hard to see the changes wrought.
Only soon it wasn’t just Steve. The group that had included Nicole, Tina, Carol, and Tommy H. who were once the worst of the worst would patrol the halls between classes.
Eddie and his band of Freaks and Nerds were more than a little shocked when they were included in the protection. Because let’s face it, even other marginalized groups tended to push him and his friends around.
Well they tried. A couple of well aimed punches and threats of not selling to them or their friends usually got them to back off. But this was real protection, not just a cat puffing up his fur to look bigger and meaner than he was.
Hawkins High had an honest to Satan knight protectorate. Fuck.
Eddie thought those were only existed in fantasy novels and D&D campaigns. And if there was a gang of knights errant in Eddie’s next campaign with the names, Thom, Stephan, Nicolette, Caroline, and Christina, that was between him and the members of the Hellfire Club and no one else.
He thought he was going to catch shit for that from his friends, but apparently Sir Steve had won over their hearts as well.
However it was only a matter of time before the bullies got creative. Because some people just like to torture they find inferior.
They would hip check their targets into the lockers, always with a “Whoops!” and a sneer. They would knock their shoulders into them with a “Watch it!” and a smirk. They would whack books and lunch trays out their hands with a “Sorry...” and a grin.
Steve’s merry band would always check on the victim, but they really couldn’t say shit, because it could have been an accident. Though really, they weren’t fooling anyone but the teachers.
Eddie could see it coming to a head sooner rather than later and god, he hoped he got to witness it first hand.

Okay, so:
There's no Upside Down in this AU, but it is still the eighties, specifically the spring of 1986 (Jonathan and Nancy's senior year).
Jonathan and Nancy were childhood friends until seventh grade, the year his parents got divorced. Between having to take over a lot of household responsibilities, working, and dealing with a backlog of trauma, Jonathan basically withdrew from middle-school society and developed a reputation as a creepy, pretentious loner. Nancy still feels bad that they didn't keep being friends, but figures they have nothing in common now.
Nancy has no illusions about romantic love, having grown up witnessing her parents' loveless marriage. However, with type-A precision and thoroughness, she has organized Hawkins High School's Centennial Dance, and she needs a date. Steve, handsome and friendly and a star basketball player, fits the bill. He's indicated to their mutual friends that he'll ask her but, during a basketball game, Steve accidentally falls on top of Chrissy, cheerleader for a rival team, and immediately falls in love with her. Nancy's not happy about this, exactly, but she's furious when she learns that Steve's taking Chrissy to the dance instead.
Without the Upside Down wreaking havoc on his and his family's lives, Jonathan has found his social niche with the weird art kids, including his girlfriend Samantha. They get into an argument when he won't skip work to go to a protest in Bloomington; she accuses him of being a poser and a proto-yuppie, and he's too proud to explain that his family actually needs the money. She dumps him, and he's very sad.
Jonathan sees Nancy drunkenly laying into Steve at a party and is kind of a snarky asshole about it (mostly because Steve is a bit of a thoughtless dick to the unpopular kids, although not an outright bully, and it's fun to see him get a little comeuppance). Then he feels bad and offers to sneak her back into her house past her mom.
This gesture of friendship leads Nancy to decide that rehabilitating Jonathan into an acceptable date for the dance is her best chance of avoiding social embarrassment. Jonathan is initially incredulous at her offer, but agrees because he hopes it'll make Samantha jealous.
And so the fake-dating commences! Nancy fixes Jonathan's hair and he looks good. She starts taking him to games and parties, he takes her to punk shows because turnabout is fair play, and both their friend groups are shocked. Samantha is totally jealous.
To back up a bit, Jonathan's friends include metalhead Eddie and band geek Robin; Eddie's something of a provocateur, but Robin is still attempting to fit in (partly because she's trying to tamp down the rumors that she's a lesbian) and does a lot of extracurricular activities. This makes her more of a target for snide comments from the popular kids. We can also throw Argyle in there.
Without the Upside Down and Barb's tragic death, Nancy became popular in sophomore year and stayed that way. Barb, not wanting to be left behind, changed her style and appearance a lot so she could be popular, too; it worked, but she's not really happy. I regret to inform you that she's dating Billy...for now. Carol is Nancy's snarky, ultimately untrustworthy frenemy, who has an on-again, off-again thing with Tommy. Steve is also part of the in-crowd, of course, and there are a few other people to round out the numbers (Jason, Heather, etc.).
The fake dating, as it always does, becomes all too real. He reveals how much he admires her kindness, her drive, and her adventurousness. She gets to know and like her friends. He gets to know and like some of her friends (mostly Barb). She defends him to Samantha. They kiss (for "show"). They talk through how their friendship ended. Everything's good, until...
Carol, not liking the direction things are taking, tells Chrissy that Steve's family are Satanists to scare her away. At a big party, Steve, baffled and hurt, tells Nancy that she was right about love and asks her to the dance. Carol plays on Jonathan's jealousy and makes a move on him, arranging things so Nancy will think it was the other way around. The final blow comes the next day, when Samantha (having learned from Nancy that Jonathan's family is very poor and needs the income from his part-time job) tells him that she wants him back. Jonathan and Nancy agree to dissolve their fake-dating relationship, no hard feelings (but there are totally hard feelings).
Nancy, realizing that she no longer wants to go to the dance with Steve, turns down his offer and goes platonically with Eddie. She also cuts loose the shitty elements of her friend group, like Carol. Jonathan realizes that he no longer wants to be with Samantha, and makes a grand gesture at the dance. Who are they making jealous? Everyone, Nancy. Everyone.
There are subplots wherein (a) Robin stands up for herself and wins Barb's heart away from the cruel and pushy Billy, (b) Eddie pisses off the whole school (but in an artistically impressive way) with the power of rock, and (c) Robin and Jonathan have a brief falling-out because he's kind of condescending about her efforts to fit in without meaning to be.
Let's just skip the part of Drive Me Crazy where the leads' parents hook up at the end. You know what? We can have Surprise Byler instead.
I am torn on whether to include a scene where Jonathan or Nancy confronts one of their parents in a hot air balloon for giving them trust issues, not least because I don't think Jonathan could resist the temptation to throw Lonnie to his death.
I don't generally headcanon that Jonathan and Nancy were childhood friends or that one of them had a crush on the other pre-canon, but I think a Drive Me Crazy AU would absolutely slap.
#i could have replaced the dave/dee subplot#with the jason-chrissy-eddie love triangle#but eddie's more of a ray than a dave#actually jonathan's a total ray#look at his sweater and floppy hair#anyway i wanted more lesbians#drive me crazy#jancy#stranger things#jonathan byers#nancy wheeler#(oh and let's throw some steve/chrissy/eddie into the mix)

Just rewatched Spree and wrote a cross-over with Stranger Things, basically an AU if Steve and Kurt are twin brothers(English is not my first language pls be kind):
Steve does not like his brother at all.
Yes, they are brothers with same parents, and yes, they look almost identical, but other than that, they are polar opposite.
Steve is the prom king, the basketball team player, the most popular boy in school, Steve has great hair, while Kurt is the freak, weirdo, greasy-haired, socially unskilled loser.
Ever since they were kids, Kurt liked to follow Steve around, copying his looks and stealing his clothes, his freak younger brother had an unhealthy obsession with Steve’s popularity, but if Steve himself wasn't the smartest, Kurt was even more of a dumbass who didn't even have the basic human emotional intelligence, so yeah, no matter how hard Kurt tried to be like Steve, he always ended up be cringe, his brother never learned any of Steve’s charms.
"Go away, Kurt."
"Shut up, I'm talking to Tommy, not you."
And he never, ever listened. Sometimes, Steve felt that Kurt was like a kind of pathetic pest that creeped him out while made him feel pity, and sometimes he felt that God had made them brothers as a kind of punishment for him.
In short, Steve does not like Kurt at all.
Until Hopper called him and told him that Kurt had stabbed Tommy.
Shit.
"Your friend’s fine, the injury wasn’t fatal. He has already come home from the hospital," Hopper tells him, "but he'll have to stay." He eyed Kurt, who was handcuffed.
Steve should be angry, he should punch this fucking jerk and kick him out of the house forever, Tommy is his friend, how dare he? But it wasn't until Steve's brown eyes met Kurt's green ones, which were filled with tears, that for a moment, once again, he didn't know how to react.
"I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry! ...." His brother pleaded in that pitiful voice, "I .... I just wanted to talk to him so I pretended to be you, but he recognized me and he laughed at me, Steve, he called me a freak and I just…..I shouldn't have done that, I'm sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry ...." He sobbed.
He thought of when they were little, their parents decided to take Steve to the big convention in the city the following week instead of Kurt, so Kurt got angry and disemboweled Steve's rabbit that he just took in, at that time Kurt was crying and apologizing to him as he is now, it scared the shit out of Steve, and that's also when he knew something was wrong with his brother, but for some reason, he felt deep down that if their parents hadn’t been such assholes and care more about them, maybe Kurt wouldn't become like this.
"It's okay, Kurt...it's okay." So just as he had done then, Steve said sadly.
Kurt threw himself into his arms at once.
Steve sighed and patted him on the back.

shitty bullet point list for marching band au because i am having thoughts
Callahan is Drum Major
Connor is Junior Drum Major
Wilbur, Tommy, Tubbo and Fundy play trumpet
Eret and H play mellophone
Punz, Hannah and Ant play sousaphone
Puffy, Sam and Ponk play baritone
Niki and Jack play clarinet.
Bad and Skeppy play piccolo.
Ranboo and Foolish play saxophone.
Dream, Sapnap and George are color guards.
Quackity, Schlatt, Charlie and Karl are drum line.
Techno is the only person in the drum pit.
Phil is an alumni who just… shows up.
Most of them go by nicknames they got at camp, like titles, more or less.
Charlie never shows up to practice. Like, ever. Sometimes he fakes sick. Sometimes, he just doesn't go.
Tubbo keeps losing his mouth piece. It’s ridiculous.
Wilbur is the high brass captain, but acts like he's Drum Major.
Purpled and Punz are both 'mercenaries', meaning they play a couple different instruments and can fill in for practice.
Tubbo is half deaf from an accident when he was a kid, so he can't always hear how he sounds.
Wheelchair Technoblade.
Dream literally goes out of his way to hit people with props.
Sam keeps a pair of sticks in his locker because Quackity always loses his.
Foolish is incredible at saxophone, and has written his own song called "temple of undying".
Tommy does jazz, mostly.
Schlatt, Charlie and Connor were all best friends in elementary school, and still hang out a lot.
Techno and Dream are incredibly competitive, which is weird because Techno doesn't march and Dream doesn't make music, so there's really nothing to compare.
Wilbur made up the L'Manburg Anthem on the bus ride home from band camp, and now they sing it every time they are on the bus.
Fundy and Dream got joke married and then Dream started actually dating George, so Dream jokes he just gets that many bitches.
Foolish plays basketball in the spring.
Corpse is a football player who shows up to watch practice sometimes. Karl has very slowly been teaching him how to do simple cadences.
HBomb wore a maid dress to practice one time and Fundy threatened to quit band.
H now wears a dress to every practice he can.
Niki and Puffy are actually dating.
Wilbur is very single, but he insists he has a girlfriend named Sally who goes to another school.
Drista and Lani are middle schoolers who show up sometimes to insult their brothers.
Vikk and Lazar are college students who hang out around the field during practice.
Their show is heavily based off of Hamilton.
Bad found a candy egg in the locker room and started a cult.
Schlatt got really high one time and fell asleep, and everyone thought he was dead.
Jack keeps trying to sabotage Tommy by playing in his ear, but it doesn't work.
Somehow, Callahan always knows when people are talking shit behind his back.
Hermitcraft College marching band. That's it.

You thought I wasn't going to do anything for HarringroveWeek... Well, so did I! But then this bug bit me in the ass and I couldn't resist. This is the first chapter of that Modern!AU prompt I posted a few days ago, but it can be read as a stand-alone. Good luck to all of us.
I mix-and-matched a couple prompts for chapter one:
SURPRISE: Steve Harrington’s Closet During His Spring Break Party Cake Slice: Can of Pringles That’s Not Frosting: For the Very First Time
Rating: E Wordcount: 5.8k
Just to Keep The World at Bay
Post game parties are always something else.
They all start out the same: someone from the team invites a few others over, someone else's older sibling scores them a couple beers, soon enough half the school has taken over a schmuck's house and there's a keg in the backyard if they're lucky.
Tonight's schmuck happens to be Harrington.
It's the first party Billy's seen at his house since he moved to Hawkins in October, but it's been even longer since he's had any friends to invite over for so much as a tea party, according to Tommy.
It was the start of the basketball season, and the Hawkins Tigers were off to a good start. Couldn't not be, with Billy on the team. He'd scored half the points on that board, even if he'd just joined last month, and the team slammed back into the locker room hollering Billy's name and salivating for a party. Tommy's parents were home, though, and so were Jack's, and Tina's. And no way they were going to throw a party at Billy's house, even if Neil wasn’t home.
The locker room went silent then, and everyone looked at Harrington. They all knew his house was always free.
And wasn't that just like high school bullshit, throw you out one second and pick you back up when you're useful again? The team started buttering Harrington up right then, cajoling him, but it looked like there was no swaying him. Until Billy opened his mouth, that is.
"What, Harrington?" Billy said, buttoning up his shirt in front of his locker. "You scared you don't have it in you to throw a party anymore? Gonna watch Supergirl and go to bed at nine?"
Harrington stared at him for almost a minute with the same look he wore that night at the Byers house, that half-narrowed one that looked like he was coming out to play, before he said,
"Fine," with his voice tight, like his chest was coiled, like he wanted to spring on Billy. Billy wanted him to. "Nine. You dipshits find the keg."
Billy couldn't resist clapping him on the shoulder and saying,
“Maybe you got some fire in you after all, Harrington,” before following them out.
He was playing with fire, after the last time he said that exact sentence, but Billy was anything but cautious.
He was curious to see what kind of party this was going to be, what with Harrington being removed from the popular crowd for so long.
You wouldn't know that, looking at him now. Harrington looks good in a white t-shirt and jeans, beer in hand and bouncing to the music booming in the living room. His hair is everywhere, and there's a faint layer of sweat covering his skin, making him glow in the low light of the party, shirt sticking to his skin. Billy wants to lick him all over.
A girl comes over to hang on Harrington's arm, and he turns to dance with her, smiling wide and ducking down to talk in her ear, and Billy turns away. He'd been staring too long anyway. He knows better than that.
He makes his way to the kitchen, passes people making out in the hallway, sees Dan the Man over by the punch bowl yammering on to another player about pure fuel or whatever the fuck, and grabs another beer out of the ice packed sink. Pulls his phone out of his jacket pocket when it buzzes.
It's from Maxine.
neil passed out in the living room
He texts a thumbs up back and deletes both their messages from his phone. He'll have to sneak in through his window, now, and be more sober than he planned on being so he doesn't make any noise. Fucking wonderful.
His phone buzzes again.
ur welcome asshole
Billy just deletes the text and pockets the phone, moving out of the kitchen and back to where the noise is louder.
He downs half his beer before he's back in the living room, inserting himself into the crowd of dancing people. Billy doesn't spot Harrington again, and he tells himself he isn't looking. He lets himself go to the feeling of bodies pressing against his, lets the music make his ears thrum, gets his arms around a pretty girl or two.
Tommy finds him and drags him to the keg a while later, and Billy breaks his own record at forty-four seconds, relishing in the feeling of his lungs burning and begging for air, of the blood rushing to his head, imagines he's wiped out under a wave and is going to find his way above the water any second now.
Billy gets down hollering, spitting out beer, just like the first time, and Tommy's got an arm over his shoulder, yelling and filming them on his phone.
Billy gets his face close to the phone screen and licks the camera, yelling, "Fuck you, Hawkins!"
"Gross, Hargrove," Tommy wipes the screen on his shirt, but doesn't let go of Billy.
"I better not find that shit going viral."
"Relax, old man," Tommy says, dragging him over to a cooler of beers next to the sliding glass doors. "I'm not an idiot, my account's private."
Billy grunts, not entirely satisfied. Tommy may get away with posting drunk shit online all the time, but Billy sure as hell won't. His dad doesn't use social media, but Susan is on Facebook for her sewing club and some MLM shit she almost got caught up in back in California. He might snatch Tommy's phone later and delete it.
The beers are icy cold, at least, in goddamn December in Indiana. The backyard is full of people despite the cold, the same music from the living room playing outside. Figures Harrington would have fancy outdoor speakers to match his fancy pool, Billy thinks.
Someone else is trying to do a keg stand and failing, with a crowd of people filming them, and there are people dancing out on the patio and on the grass, either drinking or smoking or both. Some are just sat around talking, and Billy frowns when he spots Carol sitting on a pool chair and chatting with Harrington, of all people.
"What's going on over there?" Billy points to them with his beer.
