Summary
Steve stopped stock still and stared at Eddie.
“Don’t,” the other man warned, holding up a finger.
Steve gaped at him. “What are you wearing?” he asked in something akin to horror.
“I said don’t,” Eddie repeated desperately. “It’s fucking… I had a clothes disaster! Okay?!”
Robin emerged from the back and barked out a laugh.
“Oh my God, you’re dressed like Steve!” she cackled. “Gross!”
Or five times Eddie made Fashion Choices (and one time Steve did something about it).Bookmarked by Lydia_Austen

Summary
‘Why are you telling me this?’
Steve snorts, takes a sip of his beer, ‘you’re like my only friend who isn’t 15 or my ex-girlfriend.’
‘What about Robin?’
‘She’s the one who told me it was a thing. To like both. Also, she doesn’t really like hearing details about girls so she definitely doesn’t want to hear about boys.’
‘You’ve got details about boys to tell her?’
‘Not yet.’

Steve and Eddie start hanging out; this is how it goes when the hanging out becomes something more.

Summary
Steve’s helping Eddie pack up his room at the trailer. The feds have given him and Wayne a deadline to get their stuff together, salvage what hasn’t been destroyed by the earthquake, before the place is impounded for their sinister experiments, and it's rapidly approaching.
Steve’s by the chest of drawers folding up t-shirts and Eddie is getting distracted by all the shit he keeps finding under the bed. When he gets to the bottom of the box, trying to decipher his chicken scratch 5th grade handwriting, he realizes Steve’s been quiet for a while. He turns to tease him for slacking off but Steve really has stopped packing, surrounded by neatly folded piles of black t-shirts, the bottom drawer of Eddie’s dresser still open and flicking through a magazine. No, that’s not quite it. He’s absorbed by a magazine.
Fuck.
*
Steve finds one of Eddie’s dirty magazines, Eddie makes an offer, revelations are had.

Summary
“What are you doing?” Steve asks, sounding parched and shaky.
Eddie frowns. “I… shut the door? Like you requested?”
Steve frowns back. “Yeah, I meant for you to be, like, on the other side of it,” he explains. When Eddie just looks confused, he adds, “Why are you here?”
Eddie cocks his head, almost hitting the toilet in the process.
“Well, I found you sitting here in the dark on the bathroom floor, Harrington,” Eddie explains patiently. “I was, you know, mildly concerned but I can leave if you want me to.”
It’s like that “oh my god they were roommates” vine except with mental illness and the excruciating catharsis of being known.
