  2. Summary

    These are a series of unrelated fics - some are longer than other and some I may want to go back to at a later date - which were all for the 15genres1prompt challenge on LJ.

    My prompt was "chemistry" and my genres were: friendship, angst, comfort, fluff, romance, reverse-fic, hurt, science fiction, pirate, western, adventure, horror, crime, fantasy and erotica.

    Two of the fics from this challenge are in my avengers_tables series. They are Tea is Drunk to Forget the Din of the World and Winter's Bite.

    Summary

    Three shots ring out.

    Steve hears them before he feels them; a warm, wet pain burning in his torso, intolerably excruciating.

    There’s a bundle of squawks and screams, outbursts of panic and anger, and it’s only when Hopper falls forwards to take Steve up into a slightly rough, protective hold, does he realize that two of those shots have lodged themselves in his own flesh and bone. (Realizes that he’d moved, instinctively, to shield El, despite never having spoken to her, who’d the gun had been so precisely pointed at, aimed for.)

    Steve Harrington watches his own blood pool and trickle over a series of hands pressed against him, small and large, soft and rugged, and for a moment, wants to stay like this. He can’t.

    Summary

    In which Steve Harrington steps up for a group of kids who needed him. He hadn’t expected the upside down and all its horrors to give him the family he’s always wanted, but he’ll be damned if he lets them go now.

    Summary

    "I need you to train me."

    He's pretty sure his brain just malfunctioned. 

    "Me? I- I don't know how any of your..." he gestures at her wildly, "how your magic juju works."

    "It's not magic."

    "Same difference. I don't know shit about it."

    She huffs, frustrated, bouncing on her feet with anger, a teenager again. An annoyed teenager, at that. God, no wonder she and Dustin are friends. 

    "It's not that. It's... Lucas said... Lucas said you helped him train. For his basketball trials last year."

    ********

    Or:

    Eleven asks Steve for help training to beat the obstacle course. Enter: Coach Harrington. Turns out they have way more in common than they expected.

    Summary

    Before that night in the Creel House, Steve wrote a series of letters for the Party. “Just in case,” he said when giving the stack to Nancy, hoping they wouldn’t be needed.

    More than a year later, Steve is still in his Vecna-induced coma and the Party has read their letters so many times they can probably recite them from memory.

    Or: a Steve Harrington-centric Stranger Things 5 rewrite.
