Joyce Byers - the woman with it all, or so they think. Jim Hopper - the man who lost it all, or so they think. Joyce, a seemingly happy woman who has the 'perfect' family is really stuck in an unhealthy marriage and her escape... the new hot cop in town called 'Hop' - BUT her and 'Hop' are only friends... or are they? Soulmates destined to meet one day, both with lots of walls built to protect and only each other can help them overcome their defences before they can finally be together - but it definitely won't be a smooth ride to happily ever after thats for sure... Mature themes or language may follow.

Stronghold noun 1• a place that has been fortified so as to protect it against attack. Set sort of in the middle of S3 without any of the actual plot of S3 lmao

After Lonnie leaves Joyce with a six-year-old Jonathan and a one-week-old Will, she ends up exhausted and in a little bit of trouble.

Series of Jopper Oneshots from my AO3 page - Gallifreygod! #1 Jopper 2/1/19

Joyce and Hopper deal with their trauma while also coping and not doing so good at fighting each other's feelings for each other away which leads them to be closer than they imagined.

A short Jopper one shot that takes place on Halloween. 👻🎃 Basically just fluff. Also a little El, Will and Jonathan. In this story s3 never happened and Hopper never asked Joyce on a date.

Things have finally calmed down a little in Hawkins. Joyce and Hopper got that date, and now they're starting to settle into their new, calmer life. There may be some bumps in the road along the way, but they already have a smooth shot at happiness. (Lots of Fluff! I love these two.) #1 In Jopper tag 9/30/19 Cover was made by my awesome friend @Silverfalcons !
