    Summary

    After eight years of absence, grief, and quiet survival, two lives shaped by loss continue forward on separate paths—one through words, the other through silence. Set between Hawkins and a distant land of waterfalls and wide skies, this story explores longing, fate, and the kind of love that refuses to fade, even when distance and time try to erase it.

    Told through moments of memory, waiting, and gentle hope, it is a story about learning how to live again, finding home in unexpected places, and trusting that some connections are never truly lost.

    Summary

    A collection of stories about Mike, Eleven, and their relationship through the years. Mostly one-shots, definitely not in sequential order. Since they're all written between seasons, some of the older ones might not be fully canon compliant. Also, consider them unconnected to each other unless specifically stated otherwise (although I guess, if you squint, you could assume they're in the same continuity... ish...).
