Summary
The creature huffed a little before there was a thump and then—a whine. The whine wasn’t the sound of the demodogs. No, it was the sound of just a dog. Dustin relaxed slightly but then there was a small bark. Nothing too loud as if the dog was out there, not trying to wake the neighborhood but gain his attention.
Dustin swallowed, Dart still flickering in his mind, before he moved, crawling on his bed to the window. He slowly peered through, and the dark hid a lot but, he could just make out a dog. It wasn't some Upside Dog version of a dog but a massive dog.Bookmarked by AliceoftheNorth

She looked at his hand, considering if it was worth it. She wanted to turn him down, but when she looked at his face, all she saw was honesty, not pity. Someone who just wanted to give her a break she couldn’t give herself.
“Why not,” Max said as she grabbed Steve’s hand and let him help her up.
What could have been changed by Max having someone else to talk to after losing everything?
Or: how Steve and Max developing a deeper friendship changes the way things would have gone.

Summary
“This is us, huh?” Steve asks her, reaching out to lay a hand between her ears. His face aches, and she has a bit of blood matted in the fur around her left eye; matching wounds. There’s black ichor and gore coated up her muzzle and down her ruff, and when she opens her mouth her teeth are large and wicked looking.
“Do you even have to ask?” she mutters, leaning her full weight against him.

Summary
Eddie Munson's missed too many classes to pass gym. The only option he's given to make it up and salvage the year is participation on a varsity sports team. In desperation, he tries out for baseball.
Everyone tells Steve Harrington that his fastball will take him places. Of course, the closer he gets to escaping Hawkins, the more the Upside Down seems intent on tying him down.
[The baseball AU where Eddie and Steve miss each other in high school but land on the same single A team.]
