It's been months since the Gate under Starcourt closed, and now the only thing the Party has to deal with is growing pains. High school isn't easy, and Steve wants to help them through it.
But the Upside Down isn't done with them. And this time, the enemy might be a little closer to the former subjects of Hawkins Lab than anyone suspected.Series

Summary
Steve returns home to find his house broken into by a psychic child. Had it been anyone else, they would have freaked out. But this wasn't Steve's first time with something like this. In fact, he had been the first escapee from the Hawkins Lab that had wound up at Harrington's home, almost ten years earlier. So, based on personal experience, he should be able to handle hiding both a superpowered girl in his home along with his own secrets.

Summary
“So, wait, I don’t get it,” he finally speaks up, nervously scratching the back of his neck, “If Victor Creel did all of this in 1959… why come back now? It doesn’t make any sense. It’s not even like an anniversary or anything, right? Why pick it back up again?”
Nancy parks her car, turning it off and leaning back in her seat as she looks over to Steve, “Told you it was a shot in the dark.”
Or, Steve goes to the library with Nancy instead, a scene we were robbed of.

Summary
This is a series of one-shots based on my other work Pretend Everything is Normal where the perspectives of other characters will be explored. I would recommend probably reading that one first, if you want to read this.
Steve Harrington seems like the epitome of normal. He's an athlete, a slightly below average student, well-liked by most people. However, as the Upside Down encroaches on Hawkins, the people closest to him start to realize that nothing is really normal. They just haven't figured out that applies to Steve too.
Or Steve is from the lab and is an empath, but nobody realizes that.
Rated Teen for now, but may change later, I'm not sure. I don't have a plan.

Summary
For most people, being impaled by a giant slab of serrated glass would mean game over. In Kon’s case, he’s just in a bit of blinding agony while Superman takes care of Metropolis’s latest Bad Guy Of The Week a few streets over.
No big.

While injured during a battle, Kon introspects way too much about his worth. Blood loss and feels ensue.Series
