This is Round Four of the Artist Claims for the 2024 round of WIPBB. It is the final round open for claims before the fics are given to pinch hitters, so if you want something, claim it ASAP!

You may claim up as many fics as you want this round. If you want only one fic, please fill out the form once with your top choices. If you want two fics, fill out the form twice with your first choice in the first form submission with one unique ID and the second choice in another submission with a different unique ID. Just repeat this process if you want more than two fics.

The form is located at https://forms.gle/yh1XAzkA5r1oG4QN7.

Round four of the art claims will go on until August 29th. I may be slow on sending out the matching emails, but when a fic is claimed I will strike it off the list.

Title:
Pairing/Characters: Sakusa Kiyoomi/ Miya Atsumu
Rating: Explicit | E
Warnings/Tags: Non-con/Rape Fertility issues, SA resulting in pregnancy, Alpha/Beta/Omega dynamics
Summary: There was no denying the fact that Atsumu was an alpha. He was strong, unbelievably strong, dominant, confident. He wasn’t nurturing, sweet, or soft like a stereotypical omega. And sure, there were always outliers. Not every alpha was hardwired to be an asshole and not every omega was born to be a parent; but Atsumu's smokey smell gave him away in a heartbeat.

But if Atsumu really was an alpha, then why did Sakusa find himself to drawn to him? Why did he like his scent so much? Was it just that Sakusa was gay? Or was it something else?

Pairing/Characters: Eddie Munson / Steve Harrington
Rating: Explicit | E
Warnings/Tags: Graphic Violence dubious consent, period-typical homophobia / homophobic language, explicit relationship between 17 year old and 18 year old, suicidal ideation, bullying
Summary:
August, 1983:

Steve Harrington -- the man who would be king -- fell from the gentry's grace at the inaugural jock party of Eddie's senior year after Carol Perkins and Melissa Cargill caught him sucking off Tommy Hagan in the senior Harringtons’ suite. The Saturday soiree went from giving head to getting heads rolling as the coup d'etat kicked off. The moral majority had found Harrington on his knees, and they intended to keep him there. There was no forgiveness from his former friends; there was no atonement allowed for knowingly and willingly performing such an evil act. He was expelled post-haste from the sanctimonious sanctum of Hawkins’ high school high society.

Months before Will Byers disappears, Steve Harrington is outed, bullied, and shunned. Eddie would be overjoyed to find another gay kid in Hawkins if it wasn't THAT gay kid.
