    Summary

    “I had another one.”

    It stops the playful atmosphere instantly.

    Not everyone tells him when they have a Memento. Lucas had kept to himself, and Will had refused to tell Steve about his dream. Some of them just tell him, softly, I remembered number one-seventy-three, or I had a Memento, last night. Sometimes it’s easier to just mention that it happened, acknowledge it and move on.

    And Robin, for the most part, had done this. She hadn’t mentioned the details, because she’s sure that Steve is tired of hearing them, doesn’t want to hear his death from another person’s eyes, another person who is left with his body for a day before the loop dissolves into nothingness.

    AKA: In the aftermath of it all, when Steve is learning what happiness means for him, people start to remember his deaths.

    Summary

    It starts as a joke.

    The kids, they’re little shits, who make fun of him on the daily but he loves enough to take them to school and help with their homework. Drives them places when it's raining or cold or they can’t be bothered to bike and packs them lunches when he knows their parents have forgotten. Let’s them sleep in his house when those same parents are out of town, or when Joyce is at work and they can’t all sleep there, and the Wheelers are sick of all the kids spending days and days and days in the basement and like he said it started as a joke.

    A comment here and there about him being a babysitter, how far he’s fallen from King Steve to become an unpaid childminder, a joke that isn’t quite a joke after the tenth time. Then when he really falls into the roll, somewhere between the first experience of the upside down and the third, when not knowing when they are, if they’re okay, made his chest tight and his breath shorten until he can get ahold of at least three of them.

    Somewhere between there being just four of them to Eleven coming back and Max joining the group they start calling him mom.

    -

    OR the Party call Steve mom and he has feeling about it.

    Summary

    Something didn't feel right.

    Tommy wasn't sure what that was, what just didn't feel quite right, why certain things felt like wearing a shirt that was too tight, uncomfortable, a bit suffocating, why he wondered a bit too long on things he shouldn't even be giving a second thought, but he had google and few restless nights to figure it out, even if he (she?) ended up hating what they find out about themselves.

    (Basically, an MTF Trans Tommy going through the whole trans crisis + coming out experience)

    Summary

    “I’m going to slay you!” the kid shouted, eyes locked fiercely onto the dragon.
    Techno blinked. “Uhhhh…”
    “And you can’t stop me!” The kid swung his blade a bit for good measure. “My name is Tommy, and I’m the biggest man ever! And really strong! Like a knight! So we have to battle!”

    Or: Techno may be a man-eating dragon, but that doesn't mean he's going to eat a child. Come on. He has standards.
