    Summary

    Neil was always going to run, the choice to reveal his name and hidden designation never should've swayed Andrew, but they had.

    Neil had swayed him, and now Andrew can only reckon with the fact that he was stupid enough to want again.

    It's those thoughts that are circling his head when the car pulls up. It's not smooth, he watches as the driver goes over the curb, though Andrew doesn't care enough to tell them off for their horrible park job.

    Not until Neil fucking Josten practically collapses out of the driver's seat, beat to all hell and with red hair to boot.

    Andrew is at his side before his conscious mind realizes, his body already having made the choice for him. He smells blood, and fear, but they're overpowered by the sweet scent of strawberry sorbet pouring out from Neil's neck.

    His mouth starts to water as Neil practically folds into his arms, pupils blowing wide as he catches the heat scent of slick in the air. He has a second to curse before Neil is looking up at him, glazed eyes blinking heavily before getting stuck on Andrew's face.

    "Andrew," He says his name like no one else ever has, possibly ever will.

    Summary

    “What the fuck?” Steve blurts. Again. He's starting to lose count of how often it's been. “Who do you even think you are, you fucking weirdo?”

    The guy cocks his head in confusion, but only for a second. Then, that infuriating grin slips back on. He's handsome, in a dangerous and rugged way, with his wild hair and bruised lip.

    “Apologies, he rumbles. “Where are my manners?”

    And then, without getting up off the ground, he reaches out and takes Steve’s hand in his. Steve watches, heart in his throat and eyes wide with confusion, how the guy bends into a dramatic bow and reverently kisses his own blood off his raw knuckles.

    “The name is Edward. King Edward of the Woodland Mountains. Also oh-so-aptly known as Edward the Banished, though my friends just call me Eddie. And you, my dear …”

    He looks up, all glinting eyes under dark lashes and Steve needs to swallow against the lump clogging his throat.

    “You're going to be the one who saves me.”

    —--

    Or: A story about a reluctant hero, a cursed king, and a love that transcends space, time, and maybe even death itself.

    Summary

    It can't be.

    Steve Harrington is back in the hellhole that is Hawkins, Indiana - or maybe at some college halfway across the country, preparing to take over daddy's business. He's most certainly not wearing rollerblades and a pair of stupidly short shorts, waiting tables in a cheap twenty-four hour diner in Seattle.

    Summary

    Eddie wears it like a brand. 

    Steve’s warmth. He touched me, Eddie thinks. He touched me.

    It wasn’t cold.

    Somebody touched him and it didn’t feel cold. Didn’t hurt.

    Fat lot of good it does, other than add yet another memory to- yearn? pine? despair?- over, but still. It’s something. It’s everything, maybe. 

    ---

    eddie comes out of the upside down with a missing nipple, an inability to warm up, and a beginning-to-get-concerning increase in his adverse reaction to touch. worse, still- steve harrington's magic hands appear to be his own personal cure-all.

    Summary

    “Gross, Aaron.”

    A hand raises to flip him off over the back of the couch. 

    “I have to sleep there. I don’t want your germs all over it.” Kevin starts across the room towards the couch.

    “Fuck off,” Aaron says. Or tries to. He’s so nasally some of the letters sort of blend together. Kevin freezes. That wasn’t just a sneeze. Aaron is sick.

    “You’re sick.”

    “No I’m not.”
