Summary
Eddie Munson just wanted to play hockey. That's almost all he's ever wanted, since he was old enough to realize it was an option for him. And now he's at the top of his game, one of the best players in the NHL.
Everything would have been perfect... if it wasn't for the small matter of the thing he's got going with his long time rival, goalie Steve Harrington.

Summary
Steve makes a face at Eddie. “You've imagined doing stuff with a guy?”
“Yeah, man,” Eddie replies, spreading his hands wide. “Doesn't everyone?”
Steve tilts his head to the side as he thinks. Maybe not very often, but his freshman year when Davey Riggs had been swim team captain? Yeah, he had definitely imagined some stuff that had made trips to the locker room kinda awkward.
“Yeah, that's true,” Steve answers, nodding. “I wonder why everybody acts like it's so gross, though.”
In the summer of 1986, Steve and Eddie have some perfectly normal fun between a couple of perfectly normal dudes.

A Guide to Questionably Ethical Tattooing Practices by blissedoutvixen
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

Summary
Steve goes to get his first tattoo and gets a lot more out of the experience than he expected.
Essentially this is just an excuse to write sweet, subby Steve accidentally falling into subspace as a result of Eddie tattooing him and like, calling him sweetheart. It gets progressively filthier as things go on.

Summary
“Be good for me,” Steve says- almost a whisper. Quiet and gentle, as though he isn’t causing catastrophe through words alone, wrecking Eddie in his dorky minimum-wage uniform fleece vest. “I’ll see you soon, baby. Really soon.”
Eddie nods, words out the window. His brain is on the floor at this point, melted out of his skull as soon as Steve had leaned closer, thoughts pushed out and replaced with a ringing in his ears, a record on repeat of good, Eddie, so good, be good for me, baby.

Summary
Eddie wears it like a brand.
Steve’s warmth. He touched me, Eddie thinks. He touched me.
It wasn’t cold.
Somebody touched him and it didn’t feel cold. Didn’t hurt.
Fat lot of good it does, other than add yet another memory to- yearn? pine? despair?- over, but still. It’s something. It’s everything, maybe.
---
eddie comes out of the upside down with a missing nipple, an inability to warm up, and a beginning-to-get-concerning increase in his adverse reaction to touch. worse, still- steve harrington's magic hands appear to be his own personal cure-all.

Summary
Steve is looking at him, awed. He stares at Eddie’s ribs like they have the answers to all his questions etched between them. Like there’s revelation written in between the fading whorls where his wounds knit together over the past year.
He reaches out, soft and slow- the way you approach a wounded dog. Don’t bite me, his hands are saying- I want to show you gentle touch.
---
one year post-vecna, and eddie's trying really hard to repress his feelings for steve. he'd probably be very successful at that, if it weren't for steve interfering every single step of the way

Summary
“Sorry if you got a lot of shit about it. At school. From- you know.”
Eddie stares at him. “From… your basketball lackeys?”
“Sure. Yeah.”
Is this… is Harrington winding him up?
“Are you winding me up?”
“What? No. No!”
“Pardon my hesitance,” Eddie says, narrowing his eyes, “this is just- kind of unexpected. And by that, I mean- a bit of a mind fuck.”
Steve clears his throat, looks down at his shoes.
Eddie kind of dances from side to side, ducks down to recapture Steve's gaze. “And by that- I mean- cereal shopping with Steve ‘the hair’ Harrington while he apologises on behalf of high school jocks everywhere.”
---
Gareth's unintentional matchmaking skills lead Eddie to three new discoveries:
1. Steve Harrington is very bad at math
2. Steve Harrington is very fucking weird
3. Steve Harrington is dangerously easy to fall in love with- Language:

evidence of a love that transcends hunger by lesbianwithacat

Summary
The more they’ve walked, the more Ray has thought about it. And as the miles have gone by, Ray has started to think it doesn’t really matter anymore, does it? Queer, not queer, wanting Pete or not, none of it really matters when they’re this close to dying. He’s realizing now that what does matter is just what Pete had said before— this moment. If this moment was all he got, well. Ray wasn’t going to be known as the boy who wasted any more time.

Summary
His palm glides upward, unhurried, almost thoughtful. “It ain’t a crime to be selfish,” he says finally, voice rough with something that isn’t quite tenderness. “To indulge. That’s a fact of the matter.” He looks at Ray like he’s trying to drive the point straight through him. “Right here, right now—this is all we got left. Might as well.”
Ray needs Pete close all the time. It makes him a bit crazy.

Summary
“We stopped,” Garraty said, slurring a little. Still half asleep and tearful.
“Yeah.”
“Don’t let go of me, please.”
“I won’t.” McVries dug his fingers into the meat of Garraty’s shoulder. “I won’t.”
“Promise.”
“I promise.”

Summary
Steve’s still figuring Eddie out. Like how he'll wheedle and give Steve shit for an offhand remark or tone of voice. It’s not like Tommy, where there was always something darker looming behind his cocked brow or narrowed eyes. The wrong kind of look meant tipping the scales towards an inevitable violence.
With Eddie the wrong look will get cigarette smoke blown in Steve’s face. The wrong words will get teased and playfully flipped back in a way that makes it feel like Eddie’s gently humbling him. Like each time Steve’s face goes warm with embarrassment it’s another strike to the long-dead King Steve. It’s mostly harmless. It’s intriguing. It’s the type of game Steve wants to understand so he can play it back.
Or, a totally unoriginal post-s4 summer fix-it fic where Steve questions what he’s scared of, what he wants, and where Eddie Munson fits.
Plus—how did Eddie learn how to braid hair?

Summary
“You’ll have to forgive me if I don’t believe you, Harrington. Straight boys don’t get off thinking about dick. That’s an indisputable fact of the universe, and a key point in my own personal doctrine.”
And maybe Steve should laugh, shrug, call it a night. He should do that, re-examine all of this when he’s sober.
He doesn’t. Instead, he says, “Try me.”
Eddie lifts himself up on an elbow, turning to his side so that he’s looming over Steve when he says, “Just to confirm…”
Steve nods encouragingly, bolstered by the absence of a dismissive laugh, an awkward change of topic.
“You’re saying that you want me,” Eddie continues, eyes darting between Steve’s, “to talk about fucking a dude. To see if you get hard.”
—
Or; Steve’s pretty sure he could get hard while thinking about gay sex, even though he’s straight. Eddie’s just along for the ride.

Summary
Hop said it’s a bad habit he’s gotten himself into, these night drives. Patrolling the town when everyone’s asleep, nobody to ask the question of why Steve Harrington drives circles through Hawkins past midnight every night.
It’s nearing one a.m. and Steve sighs, because—shit. There's a van on the side of the road that wasn't there on his last lap.
He can’t drive off now. He’s already stopped. Already committed, so Steve swings his keys around his finger and sighs again. Opens the car door.
He comes to a stop a few paces away from the van. Raises his voice slightly when he says, “Hello?”
“Fucking—what, hello? What?” comes a voice from the other side of the van. “Who—jesus, if I’m about to get murdered, I swear to—wait. Harrington? Steve Harrington?”
—
Or; Steve patrols the streets of Hawkins every night, looking for monsters. One night, he finds Eddie.
