The Fallen King and the King of the Freak

"Never shoved anyone in janitor closets before," Steve said instead. "Ahh, lockers then." Steve shook his head, "You could really hurt someone doing that. What if no one found them?

"I never wanted to hurt anyone," Steve breathed out, but it came out more snappish than he meant it to. OR~~~ Steve has to deal with the fallout of Season 2.

Six Times Dustin Had a Dog, and One Time He Had a Brother

The creature huffed a little before there was a thump and then—a whine. The whine wasn’t the sound of the demodogs. No, it was the sound of just a dog. Dustin relaxed slightly but then there was a small bark. Nothing too loud as if the dog was out there, not trying to wake the neighborhood but gain his attention. Dustin swallowed, Dart still flickering in his mind, before he moved, crawling on his bed to the window. He slowly peered through, and the dark hid a lot but, he could just make out a dog. It wasn't some Upside Dog version of a dog but a massive dog.

I don't know what you're hunting. It's not me, it's something else

Steve looks over her face, “I'm not having any of you at my place. Did you see the map, no way?” He states and it's one part of his reasoning but not the main reason. “Then come stay with one of us,” Robin says and it feels more like a plead than anything. He shakes his head and she looks angry now. “Stop whatever the fuck this is! We care about you! Let us in! We're safer in groups.” The words don't hurt as much as he thinks they should. “Not that much safer.” He spits back out and she blinks. “Max is as good as dead. Eddie is dead. And guess what! We were in groups!” The shouting makes his throat burn but he can't calm down. A Halloween Special!!! Happy Horror season <3
