Summary
In 1983, Mike Wheeler jumps off the Quarry and survives.
In 1987, Mike is in the Upside Down, caught in the thrall of Vecna's torment, and he falls again, this time, without Eleven to catch him, and with his friends and family too late to save him.
Will jumps after him, wraps him in his arms, and makes peace with his death if it means he dies with the boy he loves. The Quarry, barren of water in this realm, is just rocks and dirt, and as the floor rises up to crush them, the world goes black.
They open their eyes in 1985.

Summary
"Dustin?"
He snapped out of it, grabbed his backpack and small duffel bag and climbed out the window, not caring about the rain soaking his already damp day clothes. Now wasn't the time to think about who will see him, they have all seen each other at their worst, it was fine.
Despite having thought that, he felt a huge amount of relief when he saw that it was just Eddie in the passenger seat of Steve's BMW, looking as worried as the man himself. Eddie was also an important figure in his life, so a weight was lifted off his shoulders. He really didn’t want any of his other friends to see him like this.
Steve jumped out of the car and didn't hesitate to bring him into the warmest hug ever, one that Dustin didn't realize he desperately needed until this moment. He let himself cry again, but now he knew that everything will be fine.
or: Steve and Eddie officially adopt Dustin

Summary
“Does it hurt?” Eddie asks.
Steve quirks a brow, shoots him a look that would put Mayfield to shame.
“Okay, yeah. Stupid question,” Eddie says, cracking his beer and taking a swig. “Is it, um, is it bad? Like, do I need to take you to a doctor, or…?”
“No, it’s fine,” Steve sighs. He adjusts the can against his face. “At least it’s not broken this time.”
This time?
----
Steve shows up at Eddie's door with a handprint on his cheek and his heart on his sleeve. Eddie helps patch him up.
