Summary
Steve knows the complicated jumble of feelings that Eddie is dealing with well–it’s the way he felt while Dustin told him not to worry about Max driving the car, pressing an ice pack to his battered face, the way he felt when he realized that, despite everything, they hadn’t been willing to leave him behind.
To be loved, to be shown love, is a concept that Steve still struggles with, even when he craves it desperately.

Summary
When Steve woke up in 1983 after dying in 1986, he had a few goals. Make Nancy Wheeler fall in love with him. Get into college. Save his friends. Save the world. Etc.
All this should have been easy, since he’s lived it before… right? Wrong.
Now, in spring 1985, Nancy Wheeler is very much not in love with him; Steve has been anxiously awaiting an admission decision from Indiana University; Tommy and Barb have been dead for months; and Jonathan Byers has started having bad, bad dreams.
Steve is just as confused as ever. (In more ways than one, thanks to Eddie Munson and whatever it is that they’ve got going on.)

Summary
When Vecna is defeated, Eddie’s still warm body is rescued, and the crew begin to make their escape, the seals on that plane of existence begin to close. Everything that existed before Will entered is destroyed, but things brought afterward are shunted back into the handful of moments in 1983 surrounding Will's capture. Robin and Steve, facing their death, find themselves waking in their younger bodies. Running on adrenaline, barely grasping the reality of their situation, their first impulse changes everything.
Three kids disappear that night. Small-town gossip does what it likes. For some, guilt sets in when the kids are rescued, covered in fresh injuries and scars.
Things change. Traumatized, Steve and Robin do their best to make sure it changes for the better.

Summary
“Are your parents spies?”
“What? No.” No, they’re just a space alien and a woman from the future who briefly was all of time and space, no big deal.
“Are they…no, sorry, can’t think of any better reasons for there to be a weird vault of futuristic technology in your house, Steve.” Dustin says his name with a strange sort of emphasis, like he wants to impress upon Steve that he knows exactly who his is and what he’s about and he’s not going to get away with any of his shenanigans while Dustin is about. Steve wishes Dustin would clue him in on who Steve is and what he’s about because he’s beginning to wonder who and what that is exactly, if he ever knew in the first place.AU where Steve Harrington's parents are the Doctor and Rose Tyler and somehow he's still fighting monsters with a baseball bat.
