Summary
Basically requested by Soupnazi. She wanted to see a story from me from Spock Prime's POV observing young Jim and Spock's relationship.
Spock Prime (Selek) views Jim and Spock's complicated growing relationship as a mostly biased observer.

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Summary
“But it was like—looking at a piece of art, you know? Like, just looking at someone and thinking, how do they even exist? That level of… awe, almost.”
Will thinks about Mike in the back of Argyle’s van. About the jut of his cheekbone, the glimmer in his eye. The curve of his lips. Still, even through all that—hiding something. Just like Jonathan said. A beautiful mystery, wrapped up in one of the most complicated packages Will’s ever seen. “Yeah,” he murmurs, resting his chin in his palm. “Yeah, I get it.”
“Wheelers, huh?” Jonathan murmurs, with a slight smile. “Got some kinda spell over us, man.”
“God, tell me about it,” Will groans.

Summary
“If you had the chance to change it, would you take it?”
“To change what?” Mike asked.
“Everything. To go back to the start of all this shit and do things differently. Make the happy ending you deserve.”
Joyce bit her lip. “What exactly are you offering us here?”
“A second chance, like I said. You would go back in time – your consciousness and memories from the present day will be transferred into your past bodies. It would be like rewinding everything that’s happened so far back to the point where it all began.”
Or; everyone gets sent back to the beginning to rewrite their fates.

Summary
No-one asks to be a Second-Timer. Life is hard enough once - to go through it again, bearing the memories and regrets of a lifetime, would be bad enough even if it wasn't a social stigma.
Jack doesn't know why he's suddenly waking up screaming and bearing scars he never earned. He doesn't know why he apparently died young and terrified, full of regrets. He just knows he's not interested in being sent away to programs for Second-Timers, even if he might meet other kids like himself, and he doesn't want to keep remembering the life he'd failed to live properly the first time.
He does wish he could remember who Alexander was, though, and why he'd died thinking of him.
