CW: Smut/Language/Supernatural. **Summer, 1986. Eddie Munson isn't sure if graduating or surviving interdimensional monsters is the bigger miracle. With a semi-cleared name and a legal job, he's trying his best not to run these days when danger looms. Eddie continues life as normal with his new Party, ignoring the demons that follow him home. Phoenix Deloria just needs a roommate to keep her apartment. Allowing an old high school acquaintance into her life pulls them both into a side quest and digs up ghosts of past and present. In retrospect, maybe striking up a "No Strings Attached" thing on top of that was a bad idea.

Rose Vila Wheeler comes back to Hawkins after her stay in New York. She expects Hawkins to be back to normal again, and after only keeping close touch with Robin, she comes back to see everyone completely doing there own thing. She wonders what happened with everyone, maybe they're all just grown up? //"Rose will you please just play this game just this once. We're short one player and you're the only person that I know will play." "Mike. I'm not playing stupid dnd with you and your friends. I don't even know how to play." "We'll teach you! You can even get a cool shirt like this one!" I look at Dustin pointing to his shirt that says 'hellfire' with a red devil on it. I smile at his desperation. "Can't you and Dustin go bother Steve or something?" Dustin dips his head low and sucks in a sharp breath, "I mean we could but he'll be harder to convince because he doesn't really like Eddie." I choke on my spit. "Eddie as in Eddie Munson?"//

After everything that happened in Hawkins, Eddie and his uncle move to sunny California, for a fresh start. Everything was going well until he met Aspen, that is. How could one person, alter the rest of your life, after just one conversation?
