When was the last time you got proper sleep?

Forever ago, it seems. 

Your mother was considering giving you sleeping pills. You were nineteen years old now, attending community college, and, unlike the rest of the members of the party, you hadn't moved on. 

It still haunted you. 

Eddie was gone. You couldn't just get over that. Many innocent people died. Max died, for a moment. Eleven had saved her.

They were too late for Eddie.

You often sobbed at night, wondering why this was happening. Over the years, you should've gotten used to it. Grief was funny like that. Trauma, too. 

Then, it began.

When you finally managed to fall asleep, Nightmares began. First, it was at Eddie's grave. 

"Eddie," you sobbed."I just wish you hadn't died. You should be here right now."

"So much simplicity. I thought you loved me, y/n."

You turned. stood there. But he wasn't your Eddie. "I do," You said."I do, Eddie."

"I don't think you do. Otherwise, you wouldn't have let me die that day."

You're crying. You think about that day every goddamn day of your life. It haunts you. Whoever this was, they wanted to torment you. This felt real. It was less of a dream and more of a reflection. 

"Please, Eddie, believe me," you pleaded. 

Eddie takes a different form.

"You don't belong with him. You belong to me." 

Vecna.

You try running, but it's no use. It'd been a year, and you had almost forgotten about Vecna, but you knew that he was hiding.” 

You manage to wake up after that. But more nightmares just appeared. You just couldn’t exactly get him out of your head.

Why did Vecna like tormenting you?

It was a strange kind. He wanted to own you. And he always came in the monster form. You had no idea what he was like as a human. All you knew was that he might use it to trick you.

That’s what it was, deception. You just had to make sure not to fall for it.

When 1987 approached, you wondered if it’d ever change. It became sort of like an apocalyptic world. There was a curfew, and half of Hawkins was a well-military unit. Ever go past any of the limits, but you wondered what was behind the gates sometimes, and what the military might be doing.

Other than that, the sides you were allowed on remained mostly the same.

But not Vecna.

In a dream, you were at the creel house. You ran as fast as you could. A blonde-haired man in all white was after you. There was some blood on the white uniform, and his hair was slicked back. He was angelic. But you knew that this, too, was deception.

That wasn’t his real form at all.

You ran as fast as you could until you stopped at a cave—the only place he had never touched.

For a moment, you saw vulnerability, but only for a split second. You  knew of a weakness. At least a small one.

Still, his actual whereabouts weren’t known. He didn’t spawn and do anything for a year. It was clear he was waiting. 

Waiting for what? You apparently.

Nonetheless, you weren’t going to let that happen. 

Well, not if you could help it.

Your little brother was in middle school. Often, you waited for him to finish before picking him up. That was part of the deal you had with your mother, anyway.

But it gave you a routine, so you needed this.

However, only a few feet away was a man. He wore a suit and a vest. What stood out was his eyes. They stared deeply at you.

A warm smile formed on his face.

At this point, it's been a few days since your last nightmare, and you thought it had finally stopped.

It hadn't, not completely. 

You felt tempted to go up to the man who was saying hello. But you were in your car. And in about twenty more minutes, your brother would get out.

Well, it was better to be polite.

But your gut was telling you not to. So you just wave as you roll down your window and wait for your brother to get out of school.

The man still caught your attention, which was probably the intention. You turned back, though. You don't have time for that. 

"Oh, do you see Mr. Whatisit, Y/N?"

On your way home, you ask," Mr. Whatisit?" Your brother nodded."Mhm. He's nice. Though I don't really talk to him much. He just lingers and waves. He's always there when you come to pick me up, though."

You hum, trying not to act slightly concerned. You were. Was that the man's name? It was clearly a reference to A Wrinkle in Time and possibly a fake name.

Even so, you felt drawn to him somehow. It was strange; there was a sense of familiarity. 

You couldn't explain it, and your mother would get you locked up if you even brought it up. So you kept your mouth shut.

As for the party, things seemed to be going decently for them. Dustin, though, wasn't. Like you, he was grieving Eddie. It wasn't like you could. Everyone believed he was responsible. 

Consistently, there were moments that were called 'the crawl', and that was the times they'd check if Vecna was there. Though the spots never were places he'd be. He was hiding in a spot that couldn't be found. 

But here was, appearing to you, in your nightmares.

You were talking to a therapist about your trauma. But you obviously hold back, since they can't know the truth about the upside-down, eleven, and everything. 

But it helped anyway. You barely mention Eddie because there's a bias against him. The therapist, too. It's not hard to tell.  Hawkins hadn't been the same since Vecna came around. Now the world was shifting, and not in a good way.

You worked alongside Steve and Robin. It was a fun job and you always wanted to work in radio, so it worked out.

except lately, it was clear you hadn't been getting the best of sleep.

"y/n, are you okay?" Steve asked.

"I'm fine," You insist."I just didn't get much sleep last night, but it's nothing."

it wasn't nothing.

But you didn't want to worry them with your nightmares, although that seemed stupid to hide it, you just didn't want to say anything, or start something.

"I think we're all on edge," Robin said."Vecna hasn't been found, and the Military loves keeping us in the dark." You weren't a fan of the military anyway, but especially now.

It was always the same.

you enjoyed the routine for the most part, but still, you wanted something to happen in your life. maybe not vecna, but something new.

Or maybe you liked the thrill that you got from fighting and action.

Vecna liked to torment you, in the worst place possible, your dreams. You were the most vunlerable during that time. and you couldn't do anything about it.

On one of your free days, you were at a park. You didn't know why you went, but you needed time.

You saw 'Mr. Whatsit' again, standing over near you. You decide to go up to him.

He seemed, weird, but you wanted to be nice.

"Hi," You said.

"Hello," He replied. "Are you following me? You bluntly asked. "I was just observing," He smiles."I'm Mr. Whatsit."

You nod, giving him your name.

"I want to help you."

You can't trust him. You can't. But his voice, the way he speaks to you, makes you want to.

"How?" You ask, wondering what he would want from you. If he wants to help, he probably wants something in return, whoever he is.

He smiles."Come with me. Let's walk." You nod, taking his hand. Yeah, it was probably the stupidest thing you've ever done in your life. But, at this point in your life, you're desperate, and in a terrible mindset.

"There's danger in Hawkins," He tells you. You turn."I know. Monsters, right?"

He nodded as a response.

You realized then, where you knew him from.

When you got a better look at him, you freeze. how could you be so stupid? Was it just because he was hot? Probably, but that wasn't the point.

"I'm going to go, sir," You said."I hope you have a lovely day." He stops you. "Let me talk, hm?" He says. You let him.

"I've got a home not far from here. This world isn't safe at all, and is dangerous. There's monsters," He said."Come with me, and I'll protect you. I'll even protect the children."

You felt tempted by it, since he'd be helping everyone else too. But when you looked at him fully, you know who he is. You shake your head quickly and you bolt, but don't see his smile drop as you do so. Hell, you don't look back.

Your brother mentioned later that night, that Mr. Whatsit was going to save them. Realizing Vecna had some sinister plan for the children, you decide it's a good enough time to tell the crew. They had to know.

But you had no time.

"The Party, Code red, I repeat, code red, over."

"HELP!"

You place it on the ground and rush to your brother. "Y/n!" Your brother frowned. A demogorgon was in his bedroom. A demogorgon. "Run!" You insist.

"Leave my brother alone," you scream, grabbing anything in your room, dodging a few more attacks. But it was stronger. You had nothing really, and you feel it grab your leg, pulling you up.

You grib on the end of the bed frame, gripping as hard as you could. But it was no use.

you thought that since it wasn't after you, it'd let go. it only pulled you in closer, though.

You screamed one last time, as your arms let go.

The demogorgon had taken you.

You don't remember what happened next after that. Next thing you knew, you were in a home. A beautiful one. The Creel house. You remembered it.

You stand up, taking a look. You were in a bedroom. You saw a dress laid out for you, like it wanted you to wear it.

"I hope it's all to your liking."

You were startled by his voice. And he remained in human form. "I wasn't given much of a choice here," you frown."you just... ambushed me. were you even intending to take my brother?"

He remains smiling."Perhaps, perhaps not. It doesn't matter, you're staying here now. Away from the rest of the world."

And I'm stuck with a monster, You thought.

You stare at the dress, deciding your best option for now, was to comply.

Compliace was going to be your survival.

And if he starts kidnapping kids, then maybe you'd have a better way of stopping the monster.

For good.

AU where Shen Yuan transmigrates as Wu Yanzi he doesn't really know/remember the character because at the trail in PIDW he was mostly mentioned as the demonic cultivator SQQ studied under , he figures out time and is like 'ok great i won't get killed by Binghe and an NPC like me can't really mess up the plot right'

He is very wrong he stumbles on Qiu household and sees Shen Jiu and big brother instincts kick in, massacre happens (I mean i'm a demonic cultivator the whole murdering people thing should be fine very in character right?') he doesn't want to hunted down by other sects and such though so demon land?

He ends up with Shen Jiu in demon realm he's able to find ancient texts and other demonic cultivation tools and all the demons are just watching this cultivator happily talking to his disciple and getting insanely OP (SY has zero idea he keeps comparing himself to Binghe power and doesn't realize how much he outstrips everyone else) everyone's terrified of him,. man keeps talking about the endless abyss and they're pretty sure he's been there.

He ends up dragged into things when sects go to war against TLJ because ZZL seeks him out he's the strongest cultivator ZZL knows so hopes he could free his uncle. SY big brother instincts are in and of course, he's not sure who this demonic noble is (he isn't paying attention to politics without Binghe involved it all be canon fodder anyway whats the point?) so he shows up out strips everyone ends up saving a woman whose poisoned and pregnant , it's easy to heal he's seen many poisons that target demonic nature then strolls over destroy a mountain and it's on;ly now that he starts putting things together...

TLJ is a heavenly demon not a snake demon.... the cultivator is his partner... she is pregnant... half heavenly demon babayyyyy....OHHHHHH...he might have fucked up the plot.

He isn't sure how much...but Binghe's going grow up with parents as a prince he's sure he'll still be demonic harem master stallion protagonist but with a nice childhood...and no cang qiong sect and scum villain (...man has still not realized SJ is SQQ)

SY does make a stop and finds a washerwoman he maybe suggests as a nanny for the newborn prince. (Look if he gets to give Binghe a happy childhood he makes sure his adoptive mum is there to)

LBH grows up hearing about heroic demonic cultivator who saved both his parents and fucked up Huan Hua palace (He didn't kill them Binghe's wives will end up there... he just stole all their treasured and destroyed their wealth they now have to rely on their talent and skill... they're fucked OPM is suffering) he has the biggest crush and is going to marry that man... he will fight his cousin for him.

Shen Jiu highly respected demonic cultivator is watching the little beast follow his master (basically his dad and Shen Jiu has had to chase off so many suitors...sooo many) around with heart eyes while chilling with his succubi jie jie's and arranging at the sight... he's going to leave until the little beast goes back home.... maybe he'll do his favorite hobby of baiting the Bai Zhan peak lord... or tormenting Yue Qi either is good.

If you're advocating for minors to access abortions without parental/guardian knowledge, you're complicit in covering up felony level criminal acts against children and why you're advocating for that really needs to be questioned.
