Orion Hallow lives his life in the quiet margins, hidden away in a Brooklyn bookstore that doubles as a sanctuary. To the few who know him, he's a shy, soft-spoken kid who'd rather get lost in his mind than hold a conversation. But when he picks up a guitar, a different soul emerges-one with a voice that carries the weight of a sorrow and a talent far beyond his years. His carefully constructed world is built on one rule: let the music out, but never let the world in. That world, however, comes knocking when unwanted fame and certain actress stumbles into his gig and hears something breathtakingly real. As the fame begins to flow, so do the whispers-that his impossible voice sounds hauntingly familiar, an echo of a legend. When the world starts demanding to know his name, can a boy who only knows how to whisper survive the roar? ⚠️SLOW UPDATES⚠️ [SADIE SINK X MALE OC] [SLOW-BURN] started: 6/28/2025 finished: . . .

Nate Wheeler knew his perfect suburban family was a charade, a hollow frame for a family portrait. His bond with his twin, Mike, was an unspoken force-two sides of the same coin. With the rest of his family, he navigated a quiet, loving, but ultimately distant existence. His greatest struggle was the reflection of his father, Ted, that he saw in the mirror and heard in whispers. That same aloof, careless posture. He hated it, fighting the fear that he was destined to become the ghost his father already was, a perception that made some mistake his quiet nature for arrogance. But the Party knew better. They knew the real Nate: the quiet, empathetic kid with a dry wit and a genius for the practical. He wasn't the leader; he was the Artificer, the hands that built the impossible. His skills had helped them build the tank to find Will Byers, but they weren't enough to save Eleven from the Demogorgon, a loss that left him and the Party shattered, but specially his brother. Now, a fragile peace has settled over Hawkins. But as Halloween approaches, a shadow returns to haunt Will, and two new visitors from California are about to turn Nate's carefully managed world upside down. ⚠️SLOW UPDATES⚠️ Season 2: ✔︎ Interlude: ✔︎ Season 3: ✔︎ Interlude: ✔︎ Season 4: ✍︎ Season 5: ❏ (A/N: I DO NOT OWN OR CLAIM MYSELF AS OWNER OR CREATOR OF THE STRANGER THINGS UNIVERSE, JUST OF THE OCS.)
