Summary
Working a minimum wage customer service job dressed as a pirate was just about as close to rock bottom as Billy had sunk before. However, spending his days obsessively staring at the cute omega in a sailor costume working across the mall somehow made it all worth it.
Or
A sad excuse to make Pirate Billy slowly fall in love with Sailor Steve.

Summary
Post Barb's funeral, a brutal panic attack drops Steve right into a painful, stress induced partial shift. He calls the only person he thinks would be willing to help-- Lion Shifter!Billy Hargrove.
****
“Harrington.” Billy found Steve huddled in a corner, arms wrapped around his knees and visibly shivering…and partial shifted into the prettiest feline Billy had ever seen.“Oh holy hell.” Billy’s steps slowed and his eyes went wide when he caught a glimpse of porcelain fangs gleaming white behind red lips, the ripple of additional muscle bulging beneath Steve’s tight polo and twin tips of soft, furry ears peaking through the tangled mess of hair. "Look at you."
"B-Billy?" Steve blinked glazed, green and gold eyes up at him sluggishly. "Help me."
"Don't you worry, Pretty kitty." Billy knelt in front of him and reached to cup Steve's chin. "I'm gonna take care of you."

Summary
That's when Tommy realized he was, like, the worst fucking friend ever. Because Steve was an omega and they had learned in health class that omegas craved physical contact. And Steve, a secret male omega with shitty absentee parents, wasn’t getting any love at home and he couldn't exactly reach out and ask his buddies for some cuddles. No one but Tommy knew about him and Tommy sure as shit hadn't been offering to hold his hand.
So now here Steve was, getting a goddamn contact high because he was squished in between Davey Bower, who smelled like ball sweat and Cheetos, and Andrew Floyd, who looked like a fucking toe. But Steve was too blissed out on, like, happy omega hormones to care about that, and Tommy was the shittiest best friend in Hawkins.
Goddammit. Tommy was going to have to start giving Steve hugs. He was going to have to give him so many goddamn fucking hugs.
When Steve presents as a rare male omega he is forced to hide his status and question his worldview; he learns to be less shallow, more caring, and more open-minded. Tommy Hagan stays loyal to his best friend and is dragged kicking and screaming into being a better person too.
Just a little bit, though. Like, maybe 10% better.

Summary
Steve knew that he wasn't the most intelligent man in the world. He was never very academically gifted. He had never found any passion or hobby that required special knowledge. He didn't have any skills that set him apart from the majority, really. Something Steve did have, however, was social skills and he knew that he was good at reading people. So, he certainly never expected to be in a situation where Robin was explaining social cues to him.
Or: Robin makes an observation that leads to Steve's hot girl summer: the bisexual edition.
