    Summary

    Exchange fic for the Steddie Winter Oneshot Exchange!

    “To holding out.” Eddie said quietly and took the shot, seeing Steve’s eyes widen slightly before his own shut quickly, Eddie’s entire body seizing at the strong burn of ethanol hitting the back of his throat. Steve waited a moment before taking his own shot, holding his breath for a moment before releasing it with a loud noise. Eddie wiped his mouth and Steve turned around to refill the glass. Eddie strained to listen, his ears thrumming with the din of his own heartbeat and the sounds of the house party. The man's voice was barely there, but Eddie heard it, all vim and vigour disguised in a whisper.

    “We’ll see about that.”

    -

    Eddie accidentally saves Steve's life which sets into a motion a sequence of events where Steve desperately tries to balance the scales. Eddie does his best to prevent that.

    Summary

    In 2073, the world is still moving forward despite arid climates and the quick relay race between man and machine. Within the walls of the hospital center at Vecna Labs, Steve Harrington has just woken up after an accident inside the depths of the classified sections of the lab. Stricken with amnesia, he is brought to Edward Munson’s home to recover and to be observed during his recovery after experimental treatments had brought him back from the brink of death.

    In Edward’s home, Steve finds question after question. Why does Eddie seem to hate him so much? What do all the observations have to do with his accident? What exactly is going on with his malfunctioning mind, and what does this all have to do with Creel and Vecna’s tech monopoly? All the while, Steve struggles with the feeling that there was something more to his relationship with Eddie that he can’t quite understand.

    Summary

    "He saw it there on the floor of Eddie’s closet. Robin and him were there to pick Eddie up for a party and the man had been arguing with Robin about what tapes to bring, her point being that no one was going to let him play any of his music anyway. Steve had been distracted by the dumb VHS tape. It was sticking out from under a magazine with a peeling label that had the word "NURSE" in all capitals."

    Steve finds a porn tape in Eddie's closet and decides to bring it home.

    Summary

    “I… We should go.” Eddie slipped out of Steve’s reach and made a beeline to the door, stopping to slip on his boots. Steve’s stomach nearly fell out of him. Had he fucked up so royally the night before that he couldn’t come back? No. The whole year, Steve had to remind himself. It had only been a night for Steve. For Eddie, it had been an entire year of pining and expectations that had been broken. That was going to take more than 5 dozen carnations, a compliment and a kiss on the cheek was going to fix.

    Steve gets his second date.

    Summary

    "In the inky black void of the inbetween of everything in the span of time, a formless creature floated through space, eerily and aimlessly. Fate, as some would call it. Created before mankind, over and over again. In the beginning as a freshly created being, Fate had been happy to watch things grow. They played with the ferns of an ancient world and watched life force itself into existence millions of times, different in every way. Fate knew hundreds of thousands of different versions of life, but it soon discovered a favourite.

    Humanity."

    Fate looks at the many lives of Eddie Munson.
