    Summary

    It’s 1986, and Steve falls in love with a boy who is leaving.
    It’s 1990, and Eddie comes back home.

    Steve spends a month alone in the Upside Down and comes back changed. He’s quieter and all he wants is to tend to the land with his new powers… and to tend to Eddie, if he’ll let him. [Description by tolkeintrash. Alternating POV and timelines, (mostly) canon-compliant, includes tarot-inspired art and recipes.]

    Summary

    This is a really bad fucking situation.

    Eddie would know.

    Jaw working, he leans in, says, ‘You’re not my type.’

    And when he draws away, Steve is laughing, like it’s genuinely funny. He’s got this light sheen of sweat over his skin, it’s glittering. His hair moves, he pushes it back with his hands as his hips sway in time with the rhythm like he’s commanding it and he moves like a siren; a creature who exists only to lure.

    ‘I’m everyone’s type,’ he tells Eddie, like he just knows it and pities Eddie for lying. ‘To fuck, at least.’

    How one person can know you so well without knowing you at all?
    This is another masterpiece from Az.

    Summary

    ‘Blood?’ Eddie says again.

    Eyes black but for the slice of iridescent white in the centre. His teeth are sharp, his hands are weapons and Steve thinks maybe he’s made a mistake doing this without telling Eddie first. Eddie’s focus lowers, it moves to his left hand which is…

    Oh fuck.

    It’s dripping blood onto the floor.

    ‘Shit,’ Steve says, takes a single step back, swallows. ‘Eddie, I’m so sorry, fuck.’

    Eddie can’t seem to look away, can’t bring his ethereal gaze back up where it belongs. Steve thinks he should run, he should flee. A tiny part of him knows Eddie will chase him. Eddie will catch him, outrun him easily.

    It's more than a little fucked up how that thrills him.

    Why I didn't bookmark it before? No f idea.
    Vampirish Eddie and monsterfucker Steve have a GREAT time. Until they don't. And then they do again.

    Summary

    Thank you.’ Eddie lays his hand on the back of Steve’s exposed neck, right below his hairline. His skin is cool, it’s soothing.

    Something kind of unlocks in Steve’s middle.

    Like a bad bone cracking in half.

    Like a rotted dam giving way to the weight of the water.

    Summary

    “Hey newbie. Ever worked in a bar before?” the guy asks with an easy smile. Steve snaps his eyes up to meet his, and shit they’re pretty. The greeting would be charming from anyone else, perhaps even from the guy himself if he’d not overheard the exchange moments before, but Steve’s insides curl at the condescension.

    “Yeah. For about five years. Thanks. And my name’s Steve,” he responds, voice clipped. He yanks at the ties of his apron, knotting the bow just a little tighter than is comfortable. He’ll have to adjust it later, but the man’s dark eyes are roaming over him like he’s something edible, and there’s no way Steve’s going to give any indication whatsoever that he’s prey.

    “Nice to meet you, Steve. I’m Eddie.”

    Steve can’t prevent the way his face scrunches in confusion, because surely not. There’s no way that this is the Eddie. Sure, he’s not exactly hard on the eyes, but from the little Steve’s experienced of him so far, he seems like a major ass. The way Bridget had hyped him up, anyone would think fucking Jon Bon Jovi worked here.

    OR

    when the upmarket cocktail bar Steve's working at goes out of business, he finds himself in desperate need of a job.
