Summary
“Yeah, but you’re entirely predictable. I mean, you’re a rich boy who’s good at sports and climbs the social ladder like it’s nothing. No way you like nerd stuff. You’re destined to be a douchebag, Harrington. The Munson Doctrine never lies.”
As he speaks, Eddie can see Steve’s frown get deeper and his eyes get darker until he turns his head away and takes a shaky drag of the joint. He lets it out, still shaky, and seems to be gathering himself. Eddie is starting to brace for a punch or kick or something violent when Steve says, “You’re just as bad, then.”
“What?”
Steve takes another drag, his shoulders relaxing, and he looks at Eddie. “You’re no better, Munson. As much as you’d like to think otherwise, you’re also predictable. I mean, you’re a guy who feels like an outcast so he embraces the role and doesn’t bother to think he could ever be wrong about someone he’s never actually talked to before. Seems like you’re destined to be a douchebag, too.”
For the first time in a long time, Eddie is speechless.

Summary
The guys all shot-pointed looks at Eddie, Jeff being the first to say “Eddie has a huge crush on this one NHL goalie.”
Eddie felt his face slide into a pleased grin as he nodded. “Steve Harrington. Toronto Maple Leafs.”
The interviewer's eyebrow crooked. “Oh yeah? You a big hockey fan?”
His mouth opened but Gareth beat him to it “No, you don’t understand. He had never watched a full game before this in his whole life. The only things he knows about hockey is what has to do with Steve.”

Summary
After a moment of this - Eddie, looking, touching, and Steve, melting into an embarrassed puddle - Eddie jerks upwards, abruptly breaking the weird tension (that he didn't even seem aware of) and tumbling off of the bed. He lands on the floor in a pile of limbs with a solid thump. Steve's too baffled to be concerned, and even if he wasn't, this is pretty par for the course for Eddie. It'd be weirder if he went ten minutes without doing something physical and dramatic.
"You good in there?" Robin calls from the room adjacent.
Steve snorts, and he sees Eddie crack a smile against the carpet, breaking character for a moment. "Yeah, Eddie just died."
There's a beat of silence on Robin's end, and then: "Again?"
And Eddie starts cackling.
When everyone survives and the world is no longer ending, there's not much to do but get to know each other.

Summary
When Eddie’s bassist breaks his wrist right before Corroded Coffin’s first big tour he’s forced to turn to desperate measures. Namely: hiring Steve Harrington, a former industry golden boy who’s since fallen from grace, stopped recording, and vanished from the limelight entirely. Eddie’s never met Steve, but he knows he’ll hate him. He’s heard all the rumors about the guy. He knows Steve’s type — preppy, arrogant, nepo-baby asshole.
Doesn't he?
OR: The not-quite-famous-yet rock-tour enemies-to-lovers AU no one asked for.

Summary
Eddie imagines that Steve Harrington probably thinks that he is real hot shit. On top of being a rich prom king, he is also an eroptomancer. A love seer. A soulseer, some people call them – someone able to see the weird magic that connects people in a predestined shit storm of a craps game. He probably thinks he’s real goddamn special. One in a million special.
It’s actually closer to one in five million, but who’s counting?
