SERIES RECS

"OSWDLS" Oh, so we DO love Steve... written by @sheisjoeschateau | ongoing This fic has quite literally changed my life. If you're looking for a long-standing fic with impeccable writing that just so happens to have an apocalypse!au then this is the possibly the greatest one ever written. In fact, check out everything Misha has written, you won't be disappointed.

RETICENT written by @dayasfilms | ongoing A reader insert fic that covers every ST season. Reader is an absolute badass that you're sure to fall in love with. I was shocked to discover this fic so late, it's my new obsession.

because of you written by @crappymixtape | complete Every single fic on this blog is sublime, but I had to pick one and this was my introduction. Enemies to lovers done right!!! Set in ST4, forced interactions that lead to requited feelings. Do I even need to say more?

Adventures in Babysitting written by @worth-the-chaos | ongoing Reader insert that will instantly have you hooked! Acquaintances to lovers, a dash of slow-burn, and the perfect pace <3

The Roommate Agreement written by @friendlyneighborhoodslut | unknown, last update Jul 20 2025 Modern!au where Reader moves in with her brother, Eddie, and Steve. Each chapter felt like an episode of my favourite show, highly recommended!!

Sweet Child of Mine written by @smokefurball | ongoing A new tale that explores Terry Ives awakening amidst the setting of ST5. This fic is already occupying space in my mind, as I'm sure it will for you. It also provides a beautiful insight into El/Jane's mind that we didn't get to see in ST5. - not a Steve x reader fic, I just love it

I'll Be There For You written by @supernovafics | ongoing Based on the tv show 'Friends', this roomate!au features a friends to lovers arc that will have you feeling giddy in the best way!

Like It's Love? written by @upsidedownwithemmy | unknown, last update Jun 5 2025 Soulmate!au where Steve and Reader find eachother in every life - this series is already heartbreaking but written so beautifully!
