Summary
And then, above everything else, there is the crux of it all. Evan.
Evan, who has stopped sneaking out every night, but seems to be sleeping about as well as Tom. Even if he goes out, he always finds his way back before Tom is done calling every possible friend he can think of. He’s surprised when Mary Glanville tells him she hasn’t seen Evan since the storm. He makes a note to find the right time to ask Evan what finally made him freeze PJ out, if that even is what happened. He hopes, at least, that Evan cut that awful boy out of his life.
in which tom should know better than to pray in the dark of his house.

Summary
When Tom had first framed Ruth’s death as a trolley problem, it had seemed simple: one life weighed against thousands. But like every trolley problem, the simplicity fell apart the moment he looked closer.
What if it was not one person, but two? What if they were not strangers, but people he knew—people he loved? Would he still pull the lever then? And what if the trolley was not already racing toward them? What if saving those two lives meant choosing, deliberately, to send it toward everyone else? What if protecting them required him to take an active role in condemning the town?
For Tom, the answer was simple.
or
A continuation of the finale of season 1. Tom rushes towards town hall where he knew Dr. Morgan to be, Ruth bleeding and falling in and out of consciousness in his front seat. Once at town hall, he finds out what happened in his absence. Panic and mayhem. Videos with long forgotten truths. A death in a tunnel at the hands of...It.

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Summary
Will Byers is not a wizard. He’s a sorcerer.
Unfortunately, sorcery comes with side effects — nosebleeds, power surges, and a cold that refuses to go away.
As Will catches a mysterious cold after unlocking his powers at the MAC-Z, Mike Wheeler steps in to take care of his best friend. Because that’s all they are. Just friends. Obviously.
A post–Season 5 fix-it bringing back THE REAL Mike Wheeler (aka the one in season 1 and 2) complete with caretaking, slowburn Byler, mutual pining, and the kind of love that flickers the lights.

Summary
“Why did you punch him?” Mike asked, his voice getting stronger, putting the last pad down on the edge of the bathroom sink. He turned back towards Will, still sitting on the edge of the tub. Their eyes met again. “You’ve never fought before.”
And Will couldn't do anything but stay quiet and look away again (avoid, avoid, avoid–)
Mike sighed, clearly getting frustrated. “Come on, Will, talk to me. What's going on with you?”
He tried to catch his eyes, dipping in front of him to get into Will’s view, but he stubbornly kept his eyes away, down towards the ground. He didn’t really know why. He just– couldn’t. The cold of the bathtub seeped into his gripping hands.
“It’s nothing,” he bit out through clenched teeth.
“I don't believe that.”
“I’m fine, I can manage.”
“I don’t think breaking someone's nose is ‘managing it’, but okay.”
Or: In a quiet, vulnerable moment in the Wheelers' basement bathroom, an unknown anger courses through Will's body.
