Summary
There are more questions than answers. Gareth suspects that will always be the case. He's never going to know. Nobody's ever gonna tell him what really happened in Hawkins. He knows there's nothing left for him there. But he thinks maybe he needs to see the aftermath for himself, in person, with his own two eyes, because as much as he wanted out of that hell hole all throughout high school, it still feels incredibly unfinished.
So, that means he's going home. Back to Hawkins.
Or: Gareth goes back to Hawkins, and finds a home there.

Summary
“Where’d you hear it,” Harrington says, finally.
Eddie gestures up. Around in a circle. Then just watches his hand travel in the air, distracted by his own rings. “Thanks man, yeah, that helps so much,” Harrington says, meanly, when the pause stretches on. “Great fucking talking to you.”
“Does it matter where?”
“Kind of why I asked,” Harrington says.
Eddie pushes himself upright.
“Your—young squire,” he says. “Has a lot of—biology homework. Of late.”
“Fuck,” Harrington says.

Summary
Where does a dead girl fit in a world that has already mourned her?
That's one of the many questions Chrissy has to answer after El brings her back. Luckily, she's not alone. Her new best friend, Eddie, came back with her. Still, there's only so far friendship can take her as she navigates this new reality.
Some roads must be traveled alone. Other roads, well, it would be nice to have someone else along for the ride. Someone who knows what it's like to have nightmares that feel too real. Someone who can look past the scars and see the soul beneath.
A recovery narrative first, a romance second, Where the Sunflowers Grow explores the impact of friendship, chosen family, and love.
Written for the Stranger Things Reverse Big Bang 2024.
