Losers on Social Media pt 1/?

[tightropeflea]

After the events that had tipped their world upside down, Joyce moves away and relocates to a place where she spent her summers as a child. When Hopper and El come out for a visit, their lives change more than they ever expected. "Don't let the riptide wash away everything you've ever learned to love."

Rating: E (Sexual content, severe trauma that might trigger some folks)

I’ve waited to post something about Riptide, probably because I feel like a lot of Jopper fans have already read this one over and over. It’s long, it’s beautifully written, and it’s got some really great characterization in it! @jxpper does some really interesting things with Joyce and her trauma here, and the only reason I’ve not gone back to re-read it is because it hits really close to home, in a very realistic way.

For anyone who likes sequels, there’s a ‘sequel’ of sorts to Riptide!
