summary:

“Don’t question yourself. You’ve got good instincts. And—” “What?” She sounded sharper than she’d meant, if not as sharp as she felt—sharp to the point of brittleness, frozen. A cracked and jagged plate of ice he was treading on. Soft-footed, like that made any difference. Unless it made all the difference: his smile had dropped, but his eyes met hers. “And you know about it,” he told her. “You always have.” [Nancy and Steve, after everything. But everything, of course, is never over.]

summary:

"You were there, you've always been there" Quite not what Nancy Wheeler expected to hear while walking towards the biggest and most dangerous adventure they had. But she would lie if she said her heart didn't skip a beat in that exact moment. She can't say she hasn't been imaging a moment like that either. She has, way too many times to waste her chance when it actually happens. Because this may be her last chance to fix all the unresolved tension between her and the man she jumped into a different dimension for without hesitating for one second. aka the 'you were there' talk but Robin doesn't interrupt and some things are said...

summary:

It wasn’t all bad. Some of the best moments of Steve’s life were caught up in the monster hunting and the dimension hopping. Maybe all the best moments. It’s impossible to really regret something that brought you together with everyone you really love. But maybe he was alone in that. ---- December 1990. Nancy asks Steve to help her investigate the case of teenage girl who has gone missing. Steve and Nancy solving a mystery tolgether, some mutual pining and lack of communication, some danger, realizing what we all already know (that they're still in love), and Lucas and Max getting involved eventually.

summary:

Years after all the Upside Down stuff is over, everyone has left Hawkins except for Steve. He knows he has to forget about his stupid dream, but he has never been very good at letting go. One day, some surprise visitors show up at his house in need of some help. Maybe his dream isn't as out of reach as he thought it was, at least not the most important part.

summary:

Nancy Wheeler has done everything right. She is the top investigative reporter at the Daily Planet, and therefore gets first dibs on every monumental story that walks through the front door. What she doesn't understand is why the chronically late and absent Steve Harrington keeps snatching exclusive interviews with the one and only Superman. Good thing Steve's her work partner and actually a pretty decent guy. And it certainly helps that he's cute. TL;DR: AU where Nancy Wheeler is Lois Land and Steve Harrington is Clark Kent | Superman

summary:

December rolls around, as it usually does every year, and Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler are still laid up in Hawkins Memorial Hospital, as they will be for a while—or so Nancy's been told. So it's up to her to look after Holly and Mike, if they'll let her, and deal with the doctors to sort out recovery plans, if they'll listen to her, and clean the house up from that total wreck of a night over a month and a half ago when the world almost ended. And also maybe kind of try to make Christmas feel like anything resembling the stretched out shape of a holiday at all. Nancy has a lot on her plate. Probably could use something to take her mind off it all. And Steve's been Christmas shopping anyway, so he may as well look around. Just in case.

summary:

It’s 1989 and Steve Harrington is Holly Wheelers coach and he finds himself invited to his first Wheeler Thanksgiving. I wanted to post this for Stancy week day 1 but I was on vacation at the time 🫤 Better late than never I guess!

summary:

With Vecna gone, the gang moves on. Except Nancy. It feels like she’s still stuck back where she was years ago, plagued with guilt so suffocating it threatens to pull her under. But there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Steve Harrington, the boy she let go all those years ago. But all her feelings are gone. At least that's what she tells herself. Slowly, over time, at each monthly hangout, she finds it harder and harder to run from her feelings.
