Summary
Eddie can count on one hand (or rather, one single finger) the things that would rile him up more than the sight he is currently blessed, no, tormented with, enough to make him want to stab himself with the makeshift spear in his hand.
It's downright pathetic but also kind of impressive, how horny one can get even in the midst of fighting for their life but- if he's being honest to himself, Eddie would not mind dying if this is the last thing he'll get to see before the lights go out on him. There couldn't be a better way to leave this world.
"Eddie, watch out!"
Oh, right.
This is definitely not the time or the place to lose focus.

Summary
Eddie always thought it would be easy. That packing up his old life to start somewhere new would be a cause for celebration. Finally being able to leave this shitty town that caused him so much pain, finally getting away from the place where most of his nightmares are rooted - it's all he wanted for years. But now that the day has finally come, he feels a sadness much greater than any he's felt in a long time.
He doesn't know why he feels so torn, reluctant to sort through the few remaining things he owns to decide what's worth taking and what to get rid of.
Maybe he shouldn't have left the hardest part for last.

Summary
“Look, Harrington. If you’re here to give me the rest, be my guest. But make it quick, please. If you came to buy, sorry. Shop’s closed.”
That’s not how he’d normally confront his enemies. On any other day, he’d counter with overdone dramatics and a grand speech to get on their nerves, giving him at least a fifty percent chance of being left alone because he’s too much of a nuisance to be dealt with. But right now, he is really not in the mood to let his inner freak shine – he just wants this to be over and done with, wants to go home, lick his wounds like a kicked dog.
Harrington, on the other hand, seems to want to drag this out, takes his time to close the distance between them before taking a seat on the bench, unnecessarily close next to him.
“You look like you could use something to help you relax,” Steve says with a suspicious smile, “I might have exactly what you need.”

Summary
Eddie is deep in thought when a knock on his front door demands his attention. He didn’t expect any visitors today but isn’t surprised to find Steve Harrington standing on the steps, greeting him with one of his sunshine smiles before entering unprompted, pushing right past Eddie like he owns the fucking place.
And in a way, he does. Has become such a frequent guest in the Munson house that he doesn’t need to be told to feel at home anymore, just fits right in, easily, like he belongs here.

Summary
What they see, is what Steve wants them to perceive. A view that doesn’t go deeper than the sparkling surface of a lake reflecting sunlight, diverting from the sludge and cadavers concealed in the muddy water below.
Displaying the misleading image of the golden boy he never truly was.
... There’s only one pair of eyes he fears could break through the shield. The one that keeps following his every move, with a persistence that makes his skin crawl. Eyes so piercing, they’re cutting him right to the bone. Haunting him, even in his dreams, like he’s possessed.

Summary
Valentine’s Day felt like the perfect time for Eddie to give Steve the gift his boyfriend had been so patiently asking for. And so, he finally agreed to Steve taking some very spicy intimate pictures of him in the bedroom.
When they get developed, Steve is very enthusiastic about viewing them together. Of course, Eddie can never say no to him, even as the idea of looking at himself this way makes his cheeks burn.“I’m gonna be wriggling out my fucking skin the entire time, fair warning, sweetheart.”
“You’re talking like that’s a bad thing,” Steve chuckles, cocking his head. He places a hand on Eddie’s cheek and strokes it with his thumb. “As if you don’t love it when I make you squirm.”Written for Steddie Love Month day 14 prompt: camera

Summary
The song washes over him, and Steve blinks back tears.
He drives back through quiet streets, sees ghosts everywhere he looks.
Robin waving from the doorway of Family Video. Dustin flipping the bird outside the school gates. Nancy smiling shyly under the Hawk sign. The party piling out of his old beemer into Palace Arcade, Steve’s yelled warning at them to be back out at nine pm sharp if they wanted a ride home echoing through near-empty streets.
He turns away. Focuses on the road ahead, the road to home, to Forest Hills.
*****
Some nights, Steve can't fight the urge to drive laps of Hawkins and make sure there's no Upside Down stirrings, has to check. Some nights, he misses his old friends like crazy.

Summary
Branches snap under his feet as he runs, his breath fogging in front of him. It’s cold, but he’s sweating. Fear makes your body do strange things.
He was safe until he wasn’t. He was alone until he wasn’t.
He doesn’t know what’s chasing him, he just knows it’s toying with him. It could’ve attacked him minutes ago when he tripped over a vine. It could’ve attacked him only a few seconds earlier when he had to pause at the end of a trail and could practically feel the hot breath on his neck.
Steve’s losing steam and his chest hurts, and no amount of athleticism could have prepared him for running cross country in the Upside Down. It never gets easier.

Summary
Eddie Munson is sentenced to 25 years in prison for the murder of Chrissy Cunningham in July of 1986.
Despite everyone’s best efforts, the government did not seem as hellbent on helping him prove his innocence as they did to make sure everyone kept their mouths shut. Hopper and Nancy put more time into pleading his case than any of the fancy lawyers the feds sent to handle it.
Apparently, a biased jury and judge didn’t much care for whatever proof Nancy had.
At least he looks alright in orange.
or: The government fails Eddie Munson, but Steve Harrington gives him a dangerous thing: hope.

Summary
mutualism [myü-chə-wə-ˌli-zəm] · noun
the doctrine that mutual dependence is necessary to social well-being
Eddie Munson has a body that can bend, a body that can break, a body that can piece itself back together over and over again. He can’t help but seek out every thrill his newfound immortality brings, running away from danger no more. And when he first sees Steve again, he knows exactly what he needs from him.
Steve Harrington has a body made of rage, a body made of his father’s temper, a body made of explosives itching for a light. He can’t help but fight and claw his way to what he thinks may be a less lonely world with bloody knuckles and a half-crazed smile. And when he first sees Eddie again, he knows exactly what he wants from him.
Against all odds, they somehow make it work. This is, after all, a love story.
