Summary
“And what about you? Are you in safe hands?”
Robby runs a hand through his beard. He thinks about Whitaker clinging on behind him on the bike. He’d hold on so tight that it was like he was trying to pull Robby into his chest rather than himself into Robby’s back.
“I don’t know about that either.”
-
Sick with their own separate miseries, Robby and Whitaker take a trip out to Nebraska together on Robby's motorcycle. They don't expect to find what they need in each other. And yet...

Summary
When Robby ambled in a little early for his shift, central was a hive of activity, Walsh calling back to Jack as she accompanied a gurney out of Trauma 2: "Learn from the master, soldier boy."
"When you find one, be sure to let me know, princess," he shot right back, but the note of fondness in his tone made Robby freeze. That wasn't their usual back-and-forth. That held warmth to it. An undercurrent of knowing. A joke shared between two people who'd seen each other naked. More than once.
Robby clocked Jack watching Walsh go—what the fuck—and then he went back into Trauma 2, debriefing with the team. It was the tiniest moment, nothing—
And yet Robby's whole understanding had just realigned. Jack and Walsh. What the fuck.

Summary
Is that the kind of person Robby thinks he is? Someone who would cheat? It’s strangely hurtful. If Robby had reached out and punched him in the ribs it might’ve been less painful than the ache he feels in his chest right now. Thou shalt not commit adultery. He doesn’t think you need to be Christian to know that’s one of the big ones. Not that Dennis is so religious anymore, but– he’s a good person. He likes to think he is, anyway.
Dennis stares at Robby, swaying lightly, and says, “Wait you– what, you think I’m dating Amy and sleeping with you?”
The day before Robby's sabbatical, he and Dennis have a misunderstanding.

Summary
Eddie and Steve have been spending a lot of time together since Vecna. They're co-parenting kids, getting high every night, and sleeping in the same bed. They basically share a wardrobe too.
He thinks this is dangerous, its like they’re married, the casual sharing of intimacy, this space between them which feels like something and nothing all at the same time. He thinks it’s dangerous for him to pretend Steve sees it the same way, that one day Steve’s droopy, kind eyes are going to see right through him and he’ll lose this. This being a side of Steve’s bed that is his, a nightstand where his rings always pile, a drawer of shirts in Steve’s bedroom that only Eddie uses. He can’t lose it, so he shuts his mouth, turns out the light, and watches the slow breathing of sleep fill Steve’s chest.

Summary
The real reason Steve never really dates anymore is this: the nightmares and the secrets behind them.
In the middle of the night, reeling from bad dreams, Steve properly starts on the mixtape Eddie made for him. Master of Puppets made Eddie feel invincible once. Maybe Steve can borrow that feeling for one night.

Summary
He turns, scooping up his sneakers as he goes, and climbs back over the rocks. Fifteen feet between them now, and their eyes meet. Steve’s got a paper bag of groceries under one arm, balanced on his hip like a sassy single mom, and he doesn’t drop them but he pales, looks like he wants to. Eddie sees his shoulders stiffen and he asks, hoarse, “Who died?” “You did,” Eddie tells him.
Ten years on, in a town in Nova Scotia, on the edge of the Atlantic, Eddie finds Steve again, and also maybe himself.

Summary
“Alright, Harrington,” Eddie says appreciatively. "But I still don't believe this vampire thing. Robin,” he calls to the comedy section, “I’m calling your bluff."
"How much?"
"Five bucks."
"Deal. Show him your teeth, Steve."
“Hey,” Steve objects, “I'm worth way more than five dollars.”
"Sure you are." Eddie reaches out and grasps Steve’s jaw. “Now let's see those pearls."
Or, Eddie Munson’s concentrated campaign against Steve Harrington’s sanity.

Summary
Eddie has wondered for a while if Steve knows what kind of signals he sends. He’s wondered if Steve realizes what kinds of things he implies while talking about his failed dates. Eddie ignores it because that’s safer than addressing it.
Until it’s clear ignoring it isn’t doing anyone any favors.
(Alternatively: Is it gay to sit in your boy best friend's lap while you talk about how bored you are with heterosexual sex? Depends on who you ask.)

Summary
"Shake. Release. Roll.
Nineteen.
'Ugh. Come on!' Steve yells with his head thrown back. 'I don’t even care anymore I just want to roll a twenty once!'
'Well a nineteen is still fair game, Harrington. Take your pick. I might even raise the bar for a twenty if you think you can handle it.' Eddie says, voice pitched low. Steve is only dazed for half a second, thank you very much."Eddie teaches Steve all about D&D dice. What they're for, and how they're used. He challenges Steve to roll anything higher than a 15 for a reward of his choice.
Or: Steve rolls a Nat 20 and subsequently gets his shit rocked for it.

We Should Just Kiss (Like Real People Do) by Oonionchiver
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
25 Jul 2022
Tags
Summary
‘Please?’
Eddie stops him again, this time by holding his face. Steve feels Eddie’s thumb moving over his cheek, he feels the cool metal of his rings. He feels everything except what he needs.
‘I’ve never loved anything the way I love you, Steve Harrington,’ Eddie says, dark brown eyes moving between Steve’s own. ‘This isn’t the moment, sweetheart.’
It’s not a rejection, but it’s not a kiss. Steve quietly cries, insides cut up on the broken shards of his stupid little heart and Eddie holds him, he holds him all night until they fall asleep together.

Summary
Eddie survives, but his entire life is locked away in the Upside Down forever (his books, his DnD stuff, his guitar.) Everything that wasn't on Eddie when Steve carried him into the ER, gone.
So naturally Steve starts giving him things. Handing Eddie back those little outward markers of who he is.

Summary
“What the fuck just happened there?”
“I could ask you the same thing, Harrington,” Eddie hisses, jabs a finger into Steve’s chest. “Did you honestly bring me along as your plus one? To a date? With a guy who really thinks the Sex Pistols were on to something?”
“What,” a date? Plus one? Steve doesn’t even know where to start. “What is a sex pistol?”
“What,” Eddie says, parroting Steve’s confused tone back at him in a way that sounds unfairly boneheaded, “am I doing here,
Steve?”

Summary
Because here's the thing: Eddie Munson has always been weird. Since Steve first saw him his freshman year, weird. But Steve Harrington has always liked him.
Eddie was older, and cooler, and everything Steve wasn't. For the longest time Steve just called it jealousy, called it anger. He called it anything other than what it actually was: a crush.

Summary
He’s stubborn, she’ll give him that, trailing her like a shadow out of the building and into the bitter evening air, apparently oblivious to the curious stares of onlookers.
“For fuck’s sake, Liv, just let me explain—”
She stops abruptly beside her car, turning to face him. Her voice drops to something low and lethal. “Oh, so you’re gonna tell me you didn’t fuck Flutura?”
He freezes, and the silence that stretches between them is confirmation enough.
“That’s what I thought.”Or: Olivia has a few things to say about Elliot's work ethics.
