    Summary

    Steve doesn’t think he’ll ever get the sickly metallic smell of blood out of his nose.

    No, really, he feels like it’ll never come out of his skin or out from under his nails or out of his clothes. He feels like it’ll just haunt him for the rest of his life, drift like cartoon stink lines behind him, acting as the worst shadow a person could have.

    He also doesn’t think he’ll get rid of the image of Billy pushing his own intestines back into his body, holding them in place with slippery, shiny hands. And he was still trying to forget about those demon dogs and that thing at the Byers’ house that night, forgetting the smell of dead animal and the feeling of slimy, mucousy spit and alien chirping noises. So now, his nightmares are oil-slick with Billy’s blood, and echoing with the sounds of his death rattle.

    Summary

    Billy learns early that if he can’t be invisible, he has to be dangerous. So he turns himself into something untouchable—sharp, controlled, built from whatever keeps him alive. Because if he lets go of that, he doesn’t know what’s left of him.

    “But if I gave up on being pretty, I wouldn’t know how to be alive.”

    At night, he sheds his name like a second skin. Not William. Not Billy. Not a Hargrove. Something else. Something that doesn’t feel. Something that can’t be broken.

    “I should move to a brand new city and teach myself how to die.”

    So he becomes Vecna—and calls it survival.

     

    Based on the song "Brand New City" by Mitski

    Summary

    In that moment, Susan is just glad that it’s over. But she doesn’t cry. She picks herself up and goes to Max’s room and hugs her daughter and holds on tight when she doesn’t let go.

    And she suddenly realises that sometimes words can hurt as much as punches. And that they leave wounds too, and these wounds may not be visible, but they hurt just as much.
