Summary: Joyce adopts Eleven without even thinking about it - it makes such perfect sense to her and the Byers boys that they don't even discuss it, it just happens. Right there, in the parking lot of Starcourt Mall, El becomes family. And then it's getting home and sleeping and then extracting pieces of herself from the ruins of Hopper's cabin, and trying to figure out what "home" means now.

Summary: “I made a friend today,” Will announced happily, as he bounded into the kitchen with his brother trailing behind him.

“She’s invisible,” added Jonathan, with a subtly sarcastic flourish of the hands. At nine years old, he’d mastered the art of making fun of his little brother without spoiling his games.

She gave him a grateful and in-on-it smile.

“No, she’s sy-kick,” Will corrected. “Her name is El.”
