    Summary

    A year before Will Byers disappears, when Steve is 16 years old, he dreams of the Upside Down. The dream, a warning, means that high school plays out differently. Steve learns ahead of time who he actually wants to be, what to care about, and that he can be brave about a lot of things he wouldn’t expect--including Eddie Munson.
    --
    This is my excuse to rewrite Steve Harrington at Hawkins High, who deserves to feel true friendship and to play Dungeons and Dragons. And, of course, a nice love story with Hawkins’ hottest.

    Summary

    “Are your parents spies?”
    “What? No.” No, they’re just a space alien and a woman from the future who briefly was all of time and space, no big deal.
    “Are they…no, sorry, can’t think of any better reasons for there to be a weird vault of futuristic technology in your house, Steve.” Dustin says his name with a strange sort of emphasis, like he wants to impress upon Steve that he knows exactly who his is and what he’s about and he’s not going to get away with any of his shenanigans while Dustin is about. Steve wishes Dustin would clue him in on who Steve is and what he’s about because he’s beginning to wonder who and what that is exactly, if he ever knew in the first place.

     

    AU where Steve Harrington's parents are the Doctor and Rose Tyler and somehow he's still fighting monsters with a baseball bat.
