Summary
In 1983, months before Will Byer's disappearance, Steve Harrington goes missing.
It's not big news and the police say they know where he's gone, but they won't share anything else. It's something Steve is grateful for. After all, if anyone found out he was in a group home for troubled and unwanted kids, rooming with one Eddie 'The Freak' Munson, he'd never be able to go back.
But as Eddie pushes his buttons and his therapist forces him to untangle some of his twisted thoughts and memories, Steve realizes maybe--just maybe--he doesn't want to go back to normal.

Summary
“Hey, kid, what are you doing here?” the kind blonde woman asked. Steve stared up at her with a frown, crouched down next to a dumpster in New York, 1974.
“You can’t make me go back to the doctor’s. I don’t like it there.”
“Not a fan of Doctors, are you?” the man in a leather jacket said, crouching down to the little kid’s eye level. His smile bounded playfully with amusement.
“No. They don’t let me run!”
“Well, kid-“ “- I’m Steve, and I’m not a kid - ” “- Steve the Kid, then - I’m The Doctor, and this is Rose Tyler. Do you want to come run with us?”— In which Steve Harrington ran through space and time, stared into the Heart of the TARDIS, and claimed his name.
Now, it’s 1983 in Hawkins, and he’s still running.Series

Summary
“Are your parents spies?”
“What? No.” No, they’re just a space alien and a woman from the future who briefly was all of time and space, no big deal.
“Are they…no, sorry, can’t think of any better reasons for there to be a weird vault of futuristic technology in your house, Steve.” Dustin says his name with a strange sort of emphasis, like he wants to impress upon Steve that he knows exactly who his is and what he’s about and he’s not going to get away with any of his shenanigans while Dustin is about. Steve wishes Dustin would clue him in on who Steve is and what he’s about because he’s beginning to wonder who and what that is exactly, if he ever knew in the first place.AU where Steve Harrington's parents are the Doctor and Rose Tyler and somehow he's still fighting monsters with a baseball bat.
