Summary
“Huh, you know, I never thought about it like that,” Eddie says, out of the blue.
Buck glances up from his plate, “About what?” he asks.
“It actually makes sense— Us being together, I mean,” Eddie explains, casually, gesturing with his hands.
Buck almost chokes, “What?”
(Or, everyone in New México calls Eddie gay, assuming he’s with Buck. He thinks they might be onto something…)

Summary
Steve this, Steve *that*—Eddie’s had enough of his newest sheepies’ hero worship of the guy, and it all comes to a head when they’re distracted at the most sacred of events: Hellfire. Apparently his majesty is under the weather—time to storm the castle and end their serfdom.
(Jokes on Eddie, because one look at sickly, pathetic Harrington has him ripping up his Munson doctrine faster than you can say ‘m’lord)

Summary
Steve turned around with a grin and propped his elbows up on Munson's desk. Then, before he could really think about the words coming out of his mouth, he said, “Guess that makes us married then, huh darling?”
Munson, of course, stared back at him blankly, but instead of backtracking or something, Steve batted his eyelashes for good measure, really hamming it up.
Munson blinked at him once. Then twice. Then he raised an eyebrow and said, deadpan, “What the fuck are you talking about?”
***
In the last month and a half of Steve's senior year, he gets paired up with Eddie Munson for the final project in Mrs. O'Donnell's Home Economics class. The assignment? To take care of a fake baby for four weeks. For some reason, Steve finds himself surprisingly excited. Eddie, not so much.

Summary
Bakugou Katsuki is not a fan of the whole soulmates thing.
There are several reasons for it, really. It’s stupid to guage who your life partner would be off marks on your skin. It’s stupid that he has to deal with the marks on his skin. He’s read tons of shitty fanfictions (not something he’s proud of, but who cares?) with all kinds of different versions of soulmate marks, so why does real life have these ones?
Why do your soulmate’s most insecure, dark thoughts have to be tattooed on your skin?

Summary
“Yeah, are you sure it’s a good idea to be telling people that story?” Jim says, eyeing Izzy a little warily. "About a shark biting your leg off?"
“It’s not a story,” Frenchie says at once, before Izzy has a chance to say anything at all. “Don’t you remember? That big old shark that took his leg off?”
Jim blinks, and exchanges a look with Archie. “Frenchie, what are you talking about?”
__
In which Frenchie supports and embellishes Izzy’s shark story, to the understanding of absolutely no one. Set in a vague in-between time after s2ep5 but before ep6.

Summary
Steve makes his first mix tape after Nancy calls him bullshit. He's sick of always being kicked around or tossed aside, and he's especially sick of the way it makes him feel. So, he turns on the radio and starts recording any song that makes him feel good. He grabs a marker, some tape, and names it his Rainy Day Mix.
After that, he can't seem to stop making mix tapes; it becomes a form of therapy for him, and, in the end, it's the best thing he ever did.

Summary
“I had a cat in California,” Billy says, apropos of nothing.
Suddenly, Steve forgets all about the towel he was looking for. “Really?”
“Yeah, Russian Blue.”
“That’s awesome,” Steve enthuses, not having the slightest idea what a Russian Blue is. Knowing Billy, it’s probably like the name of some shit band he likes that he decided to name his poor cat after.
Billy narrows his eyes at him. “How do you not know how to take care of a cat, Harrington? They’re like the easiest animals on earth.”
“What? No, that’s so untrue! Mr. Kitty has been staring death rays at me and today he - “
“Mr. Kitty?” Billy bursts out laughing.
Steve briefly considers drowning himself in the sink. “Screw you, man. Mrs. Henderson named the cat, not me.”

Summary
Steve's on an off-world team with three people who are infinitely smarter than him--a marine tech, a whosawhatsit engineer, and a xenobiologist with a bad attitude and a lamentable inability to keep it in his pants.
He doesn’t know if whatever he’s doing here means anything, or is worth the high likelihood of getting all his good years sucked out of him by space vampires, but, honestly, there was never going to be any normal for him, anyway.

Summary
‘I’m sorry’ will never be in Billy’s vocabulary. They are just two dirty words that liars and cowards use. But he knows what it means to be sorry.
Billy picks up a butterfly bandage, holds it between his fingers for Steve to see. Waits for Steve to drop his chin in a nod, and then presses it into place against Steve’s busted eyebrow. It’s the best Billy has to give.
This probably isn’t going to work out. This thing Billy’s been trying to have with Steve since he got to Hawkins. Steve’s got these soft edges where Billy’s all blunt and sharp.
Billy drags his fingertips down the side of Steve’s face, presses his thumb against the scar he didn’t leave, and lifts a brow. “How many fights do you lose, Harrington?”
Steve grins, a half-formed thing that is sharp and sad at the same time. “All of them.”

Summary
Post Barb's funeral, a brutal panic attack drops Steve right into a painful, stress induced partial shift. He calls the only person he thinks would be willing to help-- Lion Shifter!Billy Hargrove.
****
“Harrington.” Billy found Steve huddled in a corner, arms wrapped around his knees and visibly shivering…and partial shifted into the prettiest feline Billy had ever seen.“Oh holy hell.” Billy’s steps slowed and his eyes went wide when he caught a glimpse of porcelain fangs gleaming white behind red lips, the ripple of additional muscle bulging beneath Steve’s tight polo and twin tips of soft, furry ears peaking through the tangled mess of hair. "Look at you."
"B-Billy?" Steve blinked glazed, green and gold eyes up at him sluggishly. "Help me."
"Don't you worry, Pretty kitty." Billy knelt in front of him and reached to cup Steve's chin. "I'm gonna take care of you."

Summary
“Reason number two to protect your neck…” Billy murmurs as his mouth drifts lower and lower, down to Steve's jugular.
“…Is because an enemy could just…”
He presses his teeth against vulnerable skin. He can feel Steve’s pulse pick up, can smell the adrenaline in his bloodstream.
“…Rip out your throat.”Or
Steve and Dustin become werewolves, Billy finds his mate, and the Party fights a big ol' monster.

Summary
Steve has magic, he just doesn't know it. He doesn't believe Dustin no matter how many times he insists that Steve's food is magic, because that is preposterous. Slowly others start to recognize that Steve has magic too, and then Billy comes along with accusations of a love potion when Neil gets a hold of some cookies Steve made and starts acting nice.
-
Steve expects a lighter to be tossed at him or even just lit and held up in front of his face, instead a flame sparks to life at the end of the cigarette held between his lips. Steve sucks in with a startled delighted laugh. He has seen Billy do this from afar, use his magic to light a cigarette but he has never seen him do it up close.
“That’s so cool.” Steve says before he can stop himself, face heating, why is it that he can never just be cool around Billy? “You ever do that to pick up chicks?” Steve asks, trying to save face and feeling like even more of a dumbass.
“Trying to pick you up.” Billy mumbles under his breath before making a show of coughing.
“What?” Steve asks the words too low for him to make out, he tries to sink into his jacket, shoulders around his ears as Billy starts laughing, sure he is being laughed at.
