Summary
'Neil means to say ‘sure,’ or ‘yes,’ or any variation from his years-long stock of customer service phrases.
Instead, his too nonchalant shrug appears hand in hand with something so far from bland, it’s practically a wedding vow.
“As you wish.” '

(or: the classic 'how do i say fuck you in flowers' remixed for a very anderperry secret santa gift)

Summary
Kathleen never set out to break one hundred years of tradition when she attends her grandfather's school. It's only for a term, what could possibly happen?

Summary
'This is his inheritance.
He will begin to find it in Carpe Diem, in crumpled drafts, and strips of moonlight that lead to the deep, damp woods. But for now that sanctuary is Neil, the sole heir to his father’s dreams...
And when he rises to stand upon his desk with a power unknown, he’s a poet, not a king; but in this moment Todd is both.'
*/
(or: Introspective Todd from Balincrest to young adulthood as he questions the old traditions of the heir and the spare, and exactly what that means for his own inheritance)

Summary
He didn't know what he was expecting, maybe some solicitors or a lost runner, but what he found wasn't anywhere on his list of possibilities. He pulled open the door and was met with Mike and Holly Wheeler. In their pajamas. On his porch.
"Jesus, man, I thought I was about to get murdered," he said as he let out a relieved sigh.
Or, Holly refuses to sleep after a nightmare without Max, so Mike takes her next door. Holly and Max have conversations about mind prisons, Santa Claus, and Barbie Dream Houses before falling asleep.

Holly wakes up screaming.
Holly wakes up screaming, but it’s the eighth night in a row that she’s woken up screaming, so her vocal cords are raw, and the scream is more of a whisper.
Holly wakes up screaming, sitting stick straight up in her bed, staring at the poster awkwardly positioned over the gouge in the wall, and feels a tear roll down her cheek.

Summary
“Will, I mean in this in the most platonic way, but,” Max begins. “You got, like, hot.”
Will flushes before her eyes. He turns bright red at record speed.
“I- what? No, I didn’t!”
Across the room, Mike snorts.
Or, Max hasn’t seen Will since the summer of ‘85. Despite Lucas going on about how he’s a sorcerer now, nothing could’ve prepared her for Will Byers, two years older and about half a foot taller. Surrounded by changes, the one thing that remains consistent is the way Mike Wheeler looks at Will like a lovesick idiot.
