Summary
And anyways, he always knew it wasn’t Eddie.
It’s part of why he hires Eddie. He keeps a close eye on him not because of that, but because he likes him, because he’s a good pup, because maybe Gary feels a certain responsibility towards him.
It’s because Gary watches him that he notices the way he acts and, more importantly, reacts.
Or: 5 times Eddie’s love for Steve shines through in what he says, and the 1 time it shines through in what Steve says.
Plus, a bonus scene. 😉Series

Summary
Steve thinks, silently, he could fall in love with this man. He’s halfway there based on scent alone.
“Oh, you know.” He keeps his tone light, pretends to look at the man holding him. Actually looks past him, to more shop windows. The man who was following him disappears down a side street, and Steve feels so relieved he nearly collapses.
“Oh, hell,” he breathes out, stepping back and gusting out a sigh. “I’m so sorry, fuck, he was- he was following me, and I wasn’t sure what to do-”

Summary
Steve turns to face him, smiling gently. “Aw, is someone still tired?”
“Someone’s not feeling well,” Eddie corrects gently. Steve’s eyes widen.
“Oh, honey. Amy, hey, can you look at me?” He places his palm on her cheek, and even there he can feel the heat radiating off of her.
“Mama?” Amy moves from Eddie’s neck to lean into Steve. “Mama, I don’t feel good.”
Or: inspired by my wife’s sickfic, Steve learns he has people to help him. No matter what.

Summary
Eddie frowns. “Baby… baby, do you not have traditions?”
Steve shrugs, plays with the hem of Eddie’s shirt. “I was alone a lot. My parents just didn’t think about me and Christmas in the same sentence very often. They’d send some things in the mail, sometimes, but they’d never come home.”
“Okay,” Eddie says, nodding. “So I’ll get mad about that later, but for now, is there anything you want to do for your first Christmas in our house with our baby?”
“I… don’t know,” Steve admits.

Summary
A year after Eddie Munson dies in the Upside Down, Steve Harrington finds him alive in front of the trailer he used to call home.
But Eddie is different than before. He has ears that peek, bat-like, above his hair and eyes that burn gold in the night, and the memories of his old life, his name, the relationship he and Steve once held, are gone.
Steve is left to pick up the pieces, to help Eddie adjust to his new normal, all while hoping that someday life can be as it once was.
**
“Eddie,” he pleads, “Eddie, baby—”
But Eddie’s eyes are already rolling back, his consciousness slipping as Steve holds him.
“Robin!” He doesn’t recognize his own voice, high and cracking and desperate. “Robin, help me!” He cradles Eddie’s face in his hand and supports him with the other, blood staining his shirt.
Steve doesn’t care. He doesn’t care about anything because Eddie is here. He’s alive. He’s different and bloodied but even as Robin approaches, even as she tells him this looks really bad, Steve, Steve breathes his first full breath since 1986.

Summary
MELISSA: "Greg, you're right by the red carpet, waiting for music’s biggest stars to arrive. Who are you most excited to see?"
GREG: "That’s a tough one, Melissa. Britney Spears is making her first appearance here in over a decade, which is huge. But if I’m being honest? Eddie Munson."
MELISSA: "Ah, yes—Munson, lead guitarist of Corroded Coffin, nominated for Best Song and Best Album tonight. Why him?"
GREG: "Well, we all know he loves the spotlight and never shies away from a little chaos. But the real buzz? The rumors that the openly out rockstar and notorious flirt might be debuting a partner tonight—potentially breaking hearts everywhere."
Or the one where Steve and Eddie broke the internet.

Vicious Mockery (never won a fight) by BatBratsAndTheirCrossovers
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
24 Nov 2024

Summary
Steve has never won a fight. He’s had his ass kicked left, right, and center. Hell, Johnathan has kicked his ass. Steve can bat a monster, but when it comes to people? Steve Harrington has never really won a fight.
But that’s because he’s getting put in the wrong kinds of fights. They think he’s a hammer, when really, anyone who grew up BFFs with Carol becomes a scalpel.
(Dustin gapes like a fish. “Holy shit, dude…” Steve would chide language if he thought it would do anything. “You just performed real life Vicious Mockery. I think that guy took psychic damage!”)
~~~
Or: someone thinks he’s tough shit and is messing with Steve’s kids. Cue the Boss Battle Music. Mama Steve rips the guy to shreds, as he should.
