Hi, I've been searching for a particular Harringrove fic for a while, but I'm at the end of my rope and need some help. In the fic Billy is still partially possessed by the mind flayer and hiding in El's abandoned cabin. Nobody knows he's there, but Steve keeps having visions/dreams of Billy and Billy's past. He leads everyone to the cabin where they find Billy and then take him to live with Steve and Robin who are roommates in college. Any help finding this fic is greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Hi! I don't know this fic, maybe someone else can help?

Hi! I'm trying to find a Harringrove fic on AO3 that I would go back to a lot but for some reason can't find it for once. It was an a/b/o fic with both Billy and Steve being alphas. I think I was like 14ish chapters and the first word/one of the words in the title is the word, "what," I think. It was a lot of Billy pulling Steve's pigtails and eventually Steve realizing he wanted to both have control and relinquish it. Features a scene of Jonathan and Steve biting each other and Billy seeing that. It's one of my favorite Harringrove fics and I'd be really sad if I couldn't find it again

Hi! It's been a while but I think that's what a wicked game you played (to make me feel this way) by brawlite & ToAStranger. It's restricted for AO3 users only, so make sure you're logged in when you look for it :)

Hey there! Im trying to find a fic I read a while ago Where the party knows about Billy and Steves relationship and they each threaten Billy individually. Steve finds out and is pissed. Ill be so thankful if you can find it. Have a good one :)

i'm sure there are several fics with that premise but this sounds like Shovel Talks (Dig In Deep) by lilies_in_a_vase or maybe Five times that someone gave Billy the shovel talk by Thei

[stevebillyrecs]

hey this is random but i cannot find this one ao3 fic i read. im pretty sure Billy was Steve’s dealer and they would smoke weed in Billy’s car and get McDonald’s after. Weird but I like specifically remember Billy got a milkshake and Steve didn’t. In another chapter they did acid (and again went to McDonald’s) and Steve had a bad trip. Sorry if this is too vague I just cannot seem to find it!

hi! i think this might be Lo/Hi by FreshAfterDark & nastea?

[stevebillyrecs]

i have been looking for this fic i read a while ago, i think it was sometime between june and august of 2019. i can't find it AT ALL ugh. it was very angsty, and probably between like 7-20 chapters. billy had a "friend" and when max was younger she had a crush on this guy, and ended up telling billy's dad out of jealousy. billy's dad and a bunch of locals killed him when they lived in cali. it has steve/ billy but centers on max' guilt. ik this sounds dark but pls help it was so well written

i remember this! it’s songbird by @jaybugwrites which is indeed very well written (and they’re currently writing a sequel!)

[stevebillyrecs]

hey i don’t know if you’re active but i can’t find this one fic. steve’s mom is an artist and she has a painting of him right after he got beaten up by billy and steve also draws a little. sorry that’s not a lot of detail but hopefully you know what i’m talking about?

anon i know exactly what you’re talking about but I CAN’T FIND IT. i think it was part of a longer fic, slow burn, steve takes billy to visit his mother in the city and they go to her art exhibit and share a bed... oh man i remember loving the way steve’s mom was written in that.

anyone know which fic this is?

[thinger-strang]

i am almost 100% certain thats a part from this fic, like way later in the fic, but this is one of my favorite fics, its called dont tell me theres no hope at all/together we stand, divided we fall by straight_outta_hobbiton (idk if they have a tumblr) but yes its so good

[stevebillyrecs]

Steve has an epic plan to Get Back At Daddy after his parents don't embrace his new-found bisexuality. An epic, epic plan, inspired by his favorite camboy. There's no way this can go wrong.

The Ghost in You by lemonlovely ( @lemonlovely )

When Billy wakes up handcuffed to a radiator, he's pissed the hell off when he realizes the kids think he's been possessed again, and locked him up to burn it out - but the horror of it becomes real when it's in fact Steve that's been Flayed all along, and he has some plans for Billy in mind.

On New Year’s Eve Steve is on the road to Indianapolis while Billy is on the road to nowhere. They never intended to cross paths that night. But when fate throws the two rivals together and they get caught in a snowstorm they have to set their differences aside and team up in order to survive.

After all, the most important thing in a blizzard is to keep warm.

Steve's Hair (is full of secrets) by elysiumwaits ( @elysiumwaits )

"I kissed Billy," Steve repeats, and the rest of it falls out in a rush. "At the quarry last night. I kissed him, and then I ran away, so now he's going to see me looking like a-a jelly octopus, or whatever Henderson called it, and Billy will not want to kiss me again if he sees me with peanut butter and bubblegum in my hair!"

"You're a disaster." Robin buries her face in her hands. "Like, legitimately. You're, like, competing with the tornado we had two years ago at this point, but you're worse. How can you be such a disaster?"

Steve has an unfortunate run-in with some bubblegum. Billy comes to the rescue.

Just Another Day by mrhiddles ( @mrhiddles )

“You know then?” Steve asks him, staring him down.

Billy’s eyes shift between his face, his shirtlessness, and then back to his eyes.

“Yeah. You gonna let me in or what?”

Will Byers didn't die. El closed the gate and Steve kept the kids alive. Then Steve wakes up the next day to do it all over again...and again, and again. Until one morning, Billy shows up at his door saying he's been living the same day over too.

“So, that’s my large pizza with extra sausage?” Billy asks him.

Steve hurriedly retrieves the order slip from inside the bag. He smooths it out with slightly shaky hands and squints at the list.

“Uh— No, actually,” he answers. “Says here you got an extra large with, uh, regular sausage.”

[stevebillyrecs]

OK, so a while ago I read a fic where Steve was raising (i think) duck eggs? and Billy gets really attached to them. I don't know how many chapters there is but I really want to find it. Maybe you'll know what its called?

i think you mean Mother Duck by shadower01!

“He can cheat on my mom and literally defile the sanctity of marriage, but, y’know — he draws the line at me potentially being gay, and you being my gay lover.”

“I’ll take your last name if we ever get married, just to get under his skin,” Billy mumbles.

“The pastor’s gonna ask anyone if they object, and he’s gonna raise his hand and say, ‘It was Adam and Eve, not Billy and Steve.’”
