    Summary

    Steve Harrington has turned out to be a lot like a stray cat―the particular genre of stray cat Lonnie insisted Frog was: The kind that’s not really a stray at all, but looks so cute and sweet and pitiful that you can’t help yourself.

    Once Jonathan paid him a little attention, he wouldn’t go the hell away.  It was impossible to just ignore him, since he seemed to like being ignored―it must’ve been the thrill of the chase.  There was a solid six months where he was almost always on the phone or in Jonathan’s bedroom, flipping his fucking hair around and drawling translate this for me, Byers.  What’s our friend Robert Smith saying?

    Jonathan has tried throwing rocks at him, metaphorically speaking; he’s been mean and he’s been honest; he’s left the most pessimistic parts of himself in charge.

    And somehow, despite it all, Steve is still here.

    Summary

    Steve made his choice, hiding behind his too-big Letterman jacket and later that overpriced Members Only while his friends went out of their way to make Jonathan’s life hell; or what he thought, in the ninth grade, was hell.

    Hell actually came two years later, when they dragged Will’s body out of the quarry.  When Lonnie came home.  When his mother sat him down like he was three years old again and said, smiling tightly, I’m going to have a baby.

    Benjamin, the magnificent life-fixing-grief-resolving-replacement-baby, was born nine months later.

    Summary

    The air is too clean in hell.

    Silco breathes laboriously, pulling in a lungful of air through his nose, exhaling out of his mouth, at a slower pace than any living man would. The air on his tongue tastes thin, like the atmosphere from high up in the mountains. So unlike the gritty thickness of the undercity or even the saltwater breeze of Piltover. There are no scents here, no traces of pheromones to suggest an inhabited area. It’s pure. Untouched by humanity.

    Summary

    How do you pick up the threads of an old life after losing everything you lived for? Vander grapples with grief and parenthood, being the rock everyone else needs while no one is there to save him from his ghosts. If you’re too tired to think, then you’re too tired to grieve. If he mends his community maybe that hole in his heart will start to fill. That is, if his guilt will let him rest.
