Summary
He was just one person in a sea of people, unknown to everyone, and everyone was unknown to him. Somehow, he liked it that way, and so, continued to squeeze past pairs attempting to chat to one another, having human contact for a fleeting moment before it was gone once more. He ducked under waving arms following the beat, skirted around held drinks, and finally reached his destination.
Contains angst, mentions of alcohol used as a coping mechanism, a focus on regretting one's life choices, and how easily things can turn around. Maybe spending the night in a club wasn't such a bad idea after all.
As always, these are their characters, not the irl Impulse and Tango
Now a completed work :))

Summary
Albeit confused, Tony frowns and questions, “Why aren’t you in bed, mister?”
“Why aren’t you?” Peter puts his hands on his hips, looking far goofier than ever serious.
(Or: Tony has a bad dream and Peter hasn't slept at all, and they're two idiots.)

And it seems Vecna isn't done cursing kids in Hawkins. -

Summary
Realization #1: Steve is wearing a costume. He’s dressed as Springsteen on the cover of Born In The U.S.A. The album cover is staring at Eddie from the stack of records by the speakers, and he flicks his eyes between the cover and Steve, almost laughing at how obvious the resemblance is.
Immediately after that, revelations two and three slam into him like an eighteen-wheeler.
#2: Bruce Springsteen is kind of hot.
#3: Steve Harrington is really hot.
A fourth and much louder thought echoes through Eddie’s brain: oh, shit.
(Many months ago, I wrote a tumblr post about Steve Harrington being a Bruce Springsteen enjoyer. This fic is about that.)

Summary
Being seventeen blows. Eleanor doesn’t know how those glitterbombs in Twilight stayed this age forever without tracking down the Volturi themselves to be personally annihilated. If she gets out of high school without killing anyone there, she’s gonna give herself a great big fucking gold star for her efforts.
“It’s a non-starter,” she tells the friendly little box that’s started popping up when she’s alone. “If there’s anything a Gen-Z kid can still learn from TV, it’s that killing kids at school is the fastest way to get your face on the national news.”
[You’re on a watchlist now.]
She snorts. “Bold of you to assume I wasn’t already.”

Summary
“I never thought you ever would want me. Not when — you had her. And you’re telling me that even if parts of you wants to go back because you don’t know how to be without her, you want me to help you not to because you’d rather stay if you could choose. Aren’t you?”
“I am,” he admits, his voice dripping in shame.
“And you think I’m hearing just that you want to go back,” she shakes her head.
“What should you be hearing then?”
“I’m hearing that you’d rather stay so much that you actually did tell me instead of disappearing into the night, that’s what I’m hearing. And why wouldn’t I hear you, when I do want you to stay and I think I know what took you to leave King’s Landing in the first place?”
