    Summary

    The Demogorgon was gone, and Will was home, but nothing in their lives shifted neatly back to normal the way they outwardly pretended it did, or hoped it would given enough time. Did the Upside Down ever really let them go?

    An alternate Season 2 that diverges from canon before the time skip at the end of Season 1. Heavily focused on Hopper and Joyce, though ensemble.

    An exploration of moving through loss, and the things people are willing to do about grief, and for love.

    Summary

    Arthur's got a good thing going, despite his shortcomings-- ex-con, smoker, teen father, recently dumped by his fiancée-- Like, he's got a job. A pretty good one. And his family, as odd as it is, can be pretty loving. He hasn't thought about suicide in a very long time, he's re-emerging from his depressive episode, and he's even eating better. So, why does he have to go to therapy?

    And more importantly, why is he infatuated with the new cowboy at John's Ranch? Why does Charles Smith have such a hold on him?

    The AU where Arthur gets the therapy he obviously needed.

    Summary

    Honestly, Arthur enjoys the kind of hand to mouth existence this life affords him. His wants and concerns a single track road, no doubts or anxieties clouding his way, it's simple. He's an easy man to please, so long as he has enough pocket change for smokes, to indulge in the odd bottle of whiskey and enough left for food in his belly. He doesn't want for anything else, doesn't know what he'd do if say tomorrow, someone were to drop a crisp hypothetical million bucks in his lap, honestly would just rather not have the headache.

    He works at a local dive, has done for the past five years or so. It's relaxed, but the routine keeps him in line. The joint proprietors, Dutch and Hosea, he's known for years though, has them to thank for cleaning him up, giving him a honest job, daren't think where he'd have ended up without them, probably prison if he's being optimistic, that or dead in a ditch somewhere.
