    Summary

    “So tell me, Thomas,” Lawrence said at last, each syllable dragging through the still air like the tolling of a distant funeral bell, “what is it your heart desires so fiercely it casts all reason into shadow?”
    Thomas faltered—but only for a heartbeat. When he spoke, his voice was low, resolute, tempered by neither fear nor hesitation.
    “He’s my best friend,” he said. “And I’ll see the world burn before I give up on him.”


    Written as part of TMRSS '25, inspired by my giftee’s prompt:
    TDC movie canon divergence where they rescue Minho, Sonya and Aris, but Newt gets captured, and they break into WCKD HQ to rescue him. (happy ending where Newt gets cured please) (bonus points if Teresa survives too)

    Summary

    Something quiet and tender softened the creases around Newt’s eyes, and Thomas’ big stupid heart caught in his big stupid chest.

    Careful, he wanted to say.

    Or: life in the Safe Haven is slow. Newt and Thomas are working on getting up to speed.

    Summary

    They had been planning for months, and Newt noticed the shoulders of the brunette were always tense, and his eyes were always far in thought as he stared off into the distance while other spoke. He wasn't the confident, slightly arrogant bastard Newt felt comfortable following, comfortable settling into second-in-command. No, he was distant, tense, and jumpy, something Newt wasn't sure how to handle. Thomas had always been so sure of himself, and now Newt wasn't sure how to help him, or if he even wanted any help at all.

     

    "If we lived in a different world," Thomas started, opening his eyes slowly to look at Newt. "I'd probably get down on one knee and marry you."

    Newt stared shocked for a moment, but a grin took over his lips and a blush crept up his cheeks from his neck. "Take me to that safe haven and maybe that can be arranged."

    Summary

    “Breathe, Tommy.”
    Ba-bump
    “Listen, there you go. Listen to my voice. I’m right here.”
    Bump-ba-bump
    “Just feel Tommy, that’s it. Feel my heart. ‘S just the same as yours. Good that, huh?”
    Ba-bump.
    “That’s it, love.”

    “You were dead,” Thomas speaks after a pregnant pause, his voice scratchy and raw from what he can only assume was his own screams.

    It hurts.

    “I had– I had pulled the trigger and it didn’t- it hadn’t missed, this time, Newt. It didn’t miss and you- fuck, ” He chokes out, a sob high up in his throat, the barbed wire digging further and further into his skin. The sobs come out harder, now, violent and unforgiving as they shake Thomas’ broad frame. And Newt— Newt can feel nothing else except for the anger making itself at home in his bones at the fact that Thomas, brave, and stupid, and so very beautiful Thomas was being terrorized by his own mind; its claws digging and forcing themselves into his head, and placing down roots unable to be weeded up.

     

    OR

     

    Thomas has nightmares. Newt helps. And then some.

    Summary

    As the crowds disperse in the twilight and the trucks drive away, Thomas watches Safe Haven’s massive front gates begin to close on the outside world with a huge dull groan. The sound of it settles deep inside his chest. "C'mon Tommy," Newt calls easily from the huddle of their friends, sunset lighting them up in a way that makes Thomas's heart squeeze, nothing more noticeable than the gold in Newt's eyes. Thomas turns, but can’t resist a final glance over his shoulder at the forests beyond the gates. He freezes.

    Because this is what Thomas knows.

    She’s not there, not really.

    "He refused to remember anything, to remember a world after Will. He didn't want there to be a world after Will.

    He assumed that's why he was now in his basement."

    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year and a half prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

    The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

    Summary

    “My name is Michael Wheeler, I’m 16 years old, and a year ago today, my best friend lost his mind.”
    Nobody understood why Will Byers started spouting nonsense about other dimensions, and especially not Mike Wheeler, his best friend.

    But then, a mysterious girl named Eleven reveals herself to Mike and shows him the truth: Will isn’t crazy. Vecna stole memories of the Upside Down from everyone in Hawkins, and they need to be restored.
    The party reunites to take Vecna on one last time, but when Vecna starts altering Will’s mind at a last attempt at power, things take a dark turn. Will Mike and the others be able to help Will hold on? And in a reality where anything could be fabricated, how can Will know what’s real… and what’s a trick of the mind?

    Summary

    Mike is no stranger to a little moral ambiguity, and mind reading is far more harmless than burying a body without telling anyone. So he dives in. Will smiles at him, and Mike prompts his brain to figure out why.

    He finds nothing.

    This is… odd.

    OR

    Mike gets telepathic powers randomly, three years after Vecna’s defeat. He tunes into people’s thoughts, expecting every guy’s mind to be like his. When he finds surprisingly few gay thoughts about best friends, he’s forced to re-evaluate and see if maybe it’s just him? (it is.)

    It doesn’t help that the one mind he wants to read the most seems to be set to a different frequency entirely.

    Summary

    He feels the physical embodiment of devastated, his already too strung-out mind struggling to wall up all the hurt, the rejection—he takes a deep shuddering breath and looks down at the shredded skin on his arms, at the sluggish way they’re weakly healing.

    There is nothing, nothing he wants more than to have Derek sweep in and make everything all better. He should have known, though, that something like that would never happen to him.

    OR -

    Stiles accidentally gets bitten, and everything goes to hell.

    Summary

    Stiles is home from Berkeley for the summer, but only because he promised the pack. He'd rather not see Derek, because whatever the thing was that they were doing, they're not doing it anymore, and it sucks.

    Unfortunately, he doesn't have a choice. The betas tried a magical remedy for Derek's melancholy, and now Stiles has a three-year-old who looks like Derek. Stiles doesn't know how to deal with that, and he definitely doesn't know how to tell the betas he and Derek were secret fuck buddies for a year and a half.

    Summary

    "Holy crap!  Why the hell did you lie to incredibly powerful magical beings with trust issues?  How was that Plan A?"

    Derek says, "We're not arguing about this, it's already done."

    "Like hell we're not fighting about this," Stiles says, indignant.  "What were you thinking?"

    "I was thinking it was worth the risk if it kept you alive!  And it worked, so drop it."

    "You had no idea that it was going to work!" Stiles throws his hands up.  Why is Derek the most frustrating werewolf in the history of ever, why is Stiles even helping him, why is this his life?  "Why did they even believe you in the first place?"

    Derek says, "You reeked of me," which is unfair.  Stiles only smelled because he'd gotten covered in Derek's bodily fluids trying to staunch the bleeding.

    Summary

    There's something weird about Beacon Hills that Stiles can't quite put his finger on. The way everyone in town knows his name the day he arrives. The way they insist the melancholic howling that echoes through the forest every night is just a dog. The way his dad denies getting a dog, even though Stiles comes home to find one sprawled across his bed, some big black thing whose eyes gleam red in the right light. The way that massive oak tree out in the woods vibrates under his touch, pulsing with sickly life.

    There's something weird going on in this town, and Stiles is determined to get to the bottom of it.

    Summary

    “So…” The man was at the door to a shed now. “The previous owners left everything, so I think there should be everything you need. But let me know if you need me to pick up anything, or if you prefer, you can buy it and I’ll reimburse you…”

    “Everything I need?” Stiles repeated. He had obviously missed something.

    “You know.” The man smiled again, a little more cautiously. He was looking at Stiles as if he were a bit mentally-challenged. “To clean the pool.”

    “To clean the pool,” Stiles repeated. He looked around. Then he looked down at himself, taking in his stained shirt, cargo shorts, and raggedy Converse.

    “Oh!” he said. “Because I’m the pool guy.” And that’s not what he meant to say at all. He meant to say, “You think I’m the pool guy.”
