I Wish That I Was Good Enough (Hold Me While You Wait) by StrangerSteddie

Summary
“Steve?”
“Yeah?” Steve stopped in his tracks, turning to face the older man.
Jim paused, taking him in.
The pale skin and bags under his eyes supported what he had been saying about not sleeping well. The poor boy looked like he hadn't had a full night's rest in months. Not only that but he was looking thinner - obviously he was not taking care of himself properly. It was concerning and Jim couldn't help but be grateful that a random passerby had called the police about a suspicious figure sitting on the edge of the quarry that evening. Who knew how long it would have taken them to figure out what was happening otherwise?

Now he has a peace treaty to obtain with literally all of the nations the Realms have been at war with because he has no desire to be at war any longer and they need allies and resources stat.

Summary
“Are you an organ thief?”
Robin made a choking sound.
“An organ thief?” Batman repeated, and now he sounded a little amused.
Tim nodded once, which was a mistake, because the pier rolled unnaturally under his feet.
“Important screening question,” he said.
OR:
Tim is high on pain meds, but is he going to let that stop him from saving Batman and Robin? Of course not.

Oh wow. Ugh. This hurt like a twisted knife.
The title alone is already perfect.
"August was a long time ago."
"(My child is dead.)"Those boys. I feel so so sorry for them. It's tragic.
John deserved it. He deserved to realise the extent of his neglect.
August was a long time ago. And he started asking in November.Bobby knew. Of course he knew. He was more of a father to them then John ever was.
I felt the fury of Jessica. When she slapped John- beautiful! But girl I'm so sorry for you.
Ofc John's reaction to the death of his two sons was chasing down the demon. Revenge was all he had left, all he knew. He felt like he had to but as Bobby put it: No, you don't. As if Mary would benefit from his revenge. As if his sons would benefit. As if John's revenge didn't destroy their life more than Mary's death ever could

“Sometimes I wish you would let us in, kid. You don’t have to bottle this all up and keep it to yourself, you know.” Hopper says softly.

“Did I ever tell you about the Russians?”
When Hopper receives an unexpected 2 AM phone call, he learns a lot more than he was intending to about Steve Harrington's past trauma. He's more than happy to help him work through it-one minute at a time.

There's… there’s something else too.

Even if it kills her.

Lisa Henderson didn't like Steve Harrington. Not at all.
Unfortunately for her, she had no choice but to navigate his unexpected return into her life when he started dating her best friend, Nancy Wheeler.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Lisa was also dealing with the fact that *literal monsters* actually existed in Hawkins and her little brother and his friends were harbouring a fugitive girl with superpowers.
So…keeping her own growing feelings for Steve in check as he won her friendship back should be easy in comparison, right?
Wrong.
(Little did she know, Steve was having the same problem with his own feelings)
