It’s the summer of 1985, and while everyone else in Hawkins is obsessed with Starcourt Mall, Hannah can’t shake the feeling that something is wrong. Lights flicker around her, the air feels heavier than usual, and even the woods seem restless.
Setting: A sprawling ranch in the heart of Texas — endless acres of sunburnt fields, dust trails, and the quiet hum of cicadas at sunset. The kind of place where secrets don’t stay buried for long.
Strange things have been happening again in Hawkins — flickering lights, sudden cold drafts, pets going missing. But this time, Hannah feels it before anyone else. She starts having vivid dreams: shadowy silhouettes, cracked earth, and Steve’s voice calling her name from somewhere she can’t reach.
Hannah and Billy are strictly just friends with benefits. When they fight, they fight like couples, harsh and ugly. Even when it’s just over something stupid. Both of them are too proud to admit they’re wrong.
*takes places during The Last of Us part 2 game. I want this to feel like Hannah fits perfectly into the gameplay and all the events that happen in the game happens here. Joel hasn’t died yet, this is taking place at the beginning on the game before Abby finds him*
Hannah and Steve have been best friends for years, but there’s always been underlining deeper feelings between them. Hidden glances at each other, touches that last entirely too long, always spending time together. After an event that took place in the upside down, they both confessed their love for each other and have been happily together since.
Hannah Clarke does not arrive quietly. She takes up space in Slytherin like she owns it—laughing too loud, partying too hard, and making enemies without even trying. Girls hate her. Boys want her. Pansy and Daphne claim her like she’s always been theirs. Mattheo Riddle doesn’t. He watches. He calculates. He loses control. A story about jealousy, obsession, and what happens when chaos meets something far more dangerous than confidence.
It’s Hannah’s birthday party, and one of her friends starts to have a bit too much to drink. Secrets about her crush on Riley start to be revealed right in front of Hannah.
Hannah and Kendall are going to visiting each of their families for Thanksgiving. Both completely different atmospheres. Hannah’s family isn’t very supportive of her “lesbian lifestyle” and belittle her feelings. Kendall’s family on the other hand is extremely supportive and welcomed Hannah into their lives with open arms. Hannah hates visiting her family and only does it when absolutely necessary.
Hannah meets Gunner at a streetcar race and they instantly hit it off. Now he wants her sitting pretty in his passenger seat during tonight’s big race.
Hannah is not a lady of banners or crowns, but she is beloved in Winterfell all the same. Known for her gentle elegance and steady kindness, she moves through the town like a constant—offering warm bread in winter, tending the wounded after harsh seasons, remembering names others forget. The smallfolk speak of her with affection, and even the guards soften when she passes.
Hannah Byers enters the summer thinking it will be her first “normal” one in years—just earthy outfits, sketchbooks, music from Jonathan, and spending time with her boyfriend Steve Harrington, who now works at Scoops Ahoy.
Hannah is the kind of girl everyone knows — the one who lights up every party, who laughs too loud, dances on tables, and makes sure every eye is on her. It’s not just for fun, though. Being the center of attention fills the silence left by parents who only seem to notice her when she messes up. Her grades, her future, her reputation — nothing ever seems good enough. So, she gave up trying to be perfect. Now, she’s just trying to feel alive.
Hannah March has always lived in the quiet spaces of the March household—the pauses between Jo’s thunder and Amy’s spark, the unspoken thoughts Meg carries, the worries Beth never voices aloud. At seventeen, she is thoughtful, sharp-eyed, and far more perceptive than her family realizes, often acting as the unintentional peacekeeper when Jo and Amy clash and the silent observer when love and longing go unnamed.
Hannah of the South is known across the Seven Kingdoms as a princess born of sun and fire—graceful, sharp-witted, and raised among silk banners and courtly intrigue. When political unrest forces her north, she arrives at Castle Black as an unwilling guest of the Night’s Watch, sent to negotiate resources and alliances the Wall desperately needs.
It’s the end of summer in the year 1985. Hannah and her family are just getting back from their family vacation a week before their senior year of high school.
