I probably won't update this regularly, just whenever I have ideas. If you want to request a oneshot you can do so on my Tumblr, my username is yes-17-15. Also, there is no specific year this takes place in or age the characters are, it just depends on the oneshot.

“Was it an original?”
“You don’t recognize Sabbath? Black Sabbath? Ozzy Osbourne?”
Altar boy tilted his head to one side like a confused puppy.
“That’s devastating, altar boy.”
“Steve.”
“Huh?”
“My name’s Steve, incase you feel like serenading some more, and, uh, I’m not an altar boy.”
“No?” Eddie’s eyes flicked over him. “You look like one.”
“I’m surprised you’d know, I doubt you’ve ever stepped foot inside a church.”
“And what? You’re gonna change that for me?”
Steve let out an amused exhale. “I suppose no one’s past saving, but you might be a close call.”
“Lucky for you, I didn’t ask for saving. Long live the devil, baby.”

Summary
Sheriff Hopper gripped the podium. Cameras flashed and reporters trained their video camera's on his extremely annoyed face.
“I am once again reminding everyone that we do NOT have a serial killer in Hawkins. I have consulted with specialists from Indianapolis and Chicago and the three recent deaths do not match the patterns of a serial killer.”
“Sheriff, the murders seemed to stop after the disappearance of highschool dropout Eddie Munson. But Phillip Carver’s son Jason is still missing. What do you say to the concerns of Hawkins townsfolk that there may be a copycat killer on the loose. What is the Sheriff’s department going to do to stop this killing spree?”
:::Heavy Sigh::: “Jake, you can quote me in your rag: thusly ‘There. Is. No. Serial. Killer. In. Hawkins. Copycat or otherwise. Our hearts are with the families of those who died and we are continuing our search for Jason Carver and Edward Munson, both of whom are still considered persons of interest in our ongoing investigations. If anyone has any information about the two young men and their whereabouts, they are encouraged to come forward.”

Summary
Steve's been the sole owner and operator of Steve's Sweets in Bloomington, Indiana for the last few years- ever since he graduated and left Hawkins in his rearview mirror. His experience at Steve's Sweets has been perfect. He's had Robin Buckley, bookshop owner and his newfound platonic soulmate as his neighbor-to-the-right, and Mrs. Crossley, an elderly woman with a yarn shop, as his neighbor-to-the-left.
Mrs. Crossley is getting up in years, though, and her decision to sell her yarn shop leads to a change Steve was not anticipating, and one he certainly doesn't welcome.
Corroded Coffin Tattoo and Piercing is Steve's neighbor-to-the-left now, and with the new shop comes its owner, Eddie Munson. Eddie is brash, loud, and possibly the worst person that Steve's ever met.
Eddie just wants a new beginning. Steve just wants Eddie to stay out of the way.
Neither of them expect to grow and change along the way, but sometimes the best opportunities come out of the things we least expect. -

Summary
“I love you.”
Robin keeps breathing. It’s not loud, but it’s so much more than what she’s grown used to. Her apartment has been mostly silent since May. It’s been empty since Mike stormed in a few weeks ago, the magazine with Robin’s interview rolled up in his hand, only to find her sitting at the kitchen table with tears in her eyes, already reading it.
Nancy has been so alone for so long—was ready to be alone forever in penance for what she did. But she’s not. Robin is here, somehow, despite all the times Nancy pushed her away or let her go.
“I’m so in love with you, Robin Buckley.”or, the celebrity fake dating au, Nancy's POV
