Summary
“But I...?” Hargrove asks, after long enough for Steve to go nose-blind to the furyragekillmaimkill scent, the Alpha’s jaw set and hands clenched in his pockets and eyes so easy, so blue, so- pretty. God, Steve should stop looking. Should look away, any second now. “Spit it out, doe-eyes. Don’t got all day.”
God, he has to stop looking at him.
“You call me Captain,” Steve answers, finally breaking eye contact to look instead at Hargrove’s fingers flicking his lighter again and again. Steve hopes the words say what he can’t: you were kind to me. From the way his fingers still, and the soft, barely-there pleased surprise blooms in Hargrove's scent beneath the rage, Steve thinks they might.
Or: Billy moves to the deadest part of the United States, meets the prettiest boy he's ever fucking seen, starts writing poetry, and everything - literally everything, from common courtesy to the food chain in Hawkins to his already-rocky home life to something so basic as his secondary gender - goes to fucking shit. For the better. Steve has panic attacks, spends most of his time alone, and swallows everything he's ever felt on reflex. And then he meets Billy, and everything gets, well- better. Much better.

Summary
In a life tainted by magic and evil, Jim makes his way from a young age as the apprentice of a powerful medium and her monster slayer husband (though a lot of his training seems to revolve around fetching rare and expensive liqueur...).
Eventually, the stars begin calling to him, whispering of an unnatural enemy. Something will have to be done about that. Something will also have to be done about the stubborn Vulcan who thinks one shared childhood adventure makes them friends.
Before all that, though, Jim finds a peculiar key.
(This takes place in a universe where Coraline and Beyond Belief happened in the same world, a lot of time passed, and now the events of Star Trek are happening. So not a crossover but like...a blending? An influence? I don't even know.)

Summary
They meet Jim in phases, and through him find each other. Once the layers begin to peel back, though, the future bridge crew of the Enterprise finds more than they ever could have dreamed. When the fight to keep him starts in earnest, the cadets and officers of Starfleet begin to learn that not all wars can be won.
Because long before he had friends, Jim had Family, and the Scaretta crime syndicate didn't survive to the 23rd century by letting go of its own.
Jim Kirk will always be a frustration to Spock--even when that's not his name.

Summary
“Yellow sandals covered in sand.” It was all that Billy could see. “She was pretty.” Her laughter twinkled like windchimes, like the sound the sun would make if it made a sound when it was reflected by the water. “She was really pretty. And you…” He was crying. Why was he crying. “You were happy.”
Billy stood up, facing the monster. He failed in facing a monster before, and the one person who had given him warmth and love had died because of it. He wasn’t going to let that happen again.
So when it advanced against Eleven, Billy stopped it. Bare hands. He felt himself screaming but wasn’t sure of what. In the end, he could only stop it for a few moments before the pain came.
She was the last thing he saw before everything went black.
___
Billy woke up.
“You’re late.” Maxine threw his bag on his face, looking grumpy. “Neil’s starting to freak out.”
Alternatively: the do-over fic nobody asked me to write, but I wrote anyway. Oops?
