If I can’t go hide in the woods for a week and come back an ancient druid with horns and infinite knowledge then what is the point in living this life.
This idea really only works as a tumblr post rambling to someone about a fic, but it aches, so I’m sharing.
Standard issue setup where Steve gets thrown back in time so he can fix things. One minute he’s trying to keep the last of his friends alive in the final fight, the next he’s waking up in bed in 1983, a day before Will would have gone missing.
Will is safe and home, but has horrible nightmares for a few weeks. After the first night, when he told his mom and his friends about it - the monster and the creepy place he went and the cold - they have nightmares too. It’s strange that they all had dreams, but Will has always been a good storyteller.
Nancy and Barb get stuck on babysitting duty for the kids, where they mostly gossip about how Steve broke up with her one day and became a social outcast within two more.
Was anyone going to tell me the song I’ve been blasting for years was a Hannigram fan song?? Or was I just supposed to read it on AO3 in an authors note?
