Summary
He watched Mrs. Byers meet the young girl's eyes over her son's shoulders and he was suddenly hit with a crystal clear image in his mind.
Hopper. Standing with his back to the gate. Smiling softly, resigned. But filled with so much love.
Joyce. Watching, stretched impossibly thin. Understanding with a sense of grief, too terrible to name.
She turns the keys.
"Steve?" Jonathan is half out of the ambulance, using all of his weakened strength to keep Steve upright. "What's wrong?"
"Hopper. It's Hopper. He's gone." Steve doesn't know how he knows it, but he does.
-------------------
After the Battle of Starcourt, Steve struggles with the damages that the Russians left behind. In dealing with the aftermath, with the help of Robin and the Party, he uncovers a larger conspiracy at hand than just re-opening the Gate.

Summary
It was really just his luck that a hulking monster lumbered out of the woods and directly onto his driveway. Just his luck that he threw enough parties when his parents were gone that the neighbors had long tuned out any noise that came from his yard. Just a nice cherry on top of the fucking cake that, even if anyone did hear him screaming when claws tangled in his jacket and pulled, Steve honestly wasn’t sure they’d have cared enough to bother anyway.
OR:
Months before El ripped open the gate at Hawkins Lab, the Demogorgon started ripping tears of its own. Months before it found Will Byers, it found Steve Harrington.

Summary
Kim Minjae has been defining himself by the ways that he compares to others for so long that he's forgotten to figure out who he is. He wants to be great, so of course he thinks that he wants to be just like the embodiment of greatness he walks past in the halls every day at KQ Entertainment.
Kim Hongjoong doesn't know how to tell the Xikers leader that there are better things to want than to want to be like Hongjoong, and there are better things to be known for than to be known as a shadow of someone else. He hasn't slept in two days, and he's too stressed to make it coherent, but he tries to tell Minjae anyway.
