Summary
"Because- I really missed you. I missed my best friend.”
Dustin stilled, but the tears welling up in his eyes didn’t.
“I missed my best friend, too.” Dustin smiled softly.
Steve nodded, fumbling with the makeshift spear in his hands nervously, shifting his thumb up and down and up and down and up and down and Dustin finally looked up from the man’s hands to see the lump in his throat and the tremble of his lips.
“And I was angry, because he didn’t deserve to die. I told him don’t be a hero and he went right ahead and did the stupidest but bravest thing he could. It was a dumb call but it was the right one and he did save you. I Just sometimes want to believe he was dumb and he did it for nothing, because then I can be mad at him for leaving."
OR
A rewritten version of the “You die, I die” scene because they deserved to dig deeper, and Steve deserved to grieve too and have his own problems beyond just missing his friend. And he we deserved a sprinkle of steddie + a teeny bit of my own personal headcanons. So I wrote them the more emotional and lengthy conversation that they needed but didn’t get for the sake of time.

Summary
“Good morning Hawkins! This is WSQK the Squawk here to brighten your gray post-Christmas hangover. It’s looking like a cloudy day with low chance of snow, medium chance of gale, and even lower chance of the military delivering the holiday cheer that we’ve been promised. Like, seriously, guys, I know you’re listening. A sock per household? That was the best you could do?”
“Well anyway, have no fear Hawkins, because your friend, entertainer, and DJ Robin Buckley, aka Rockin Robin! has a surprise for all of you! You see, a few geniuses in my social circle, who have insisted on anonymity – real classy if you ask me – have made a truly amazing discovery.”
“And what is that, you may ask? Well they found the soulmate frequency.”

Or, Steve dials into his soulmate frequency and finds Eddie Munson

Summary
“What?” Robin eyes him. “How hard did you get hit in the head, dingus?”
Quietly, Steve asks, “Is it okay to like both? You know, girls and guys?”
***
Steve Harrington has liked Eddie Munson for quite some time. Eddie Munson thinks "King Steve" is hot...but why tf would he ever admit it? When their paths cross through Dustin Henderson in the fall of 1985, things snowball until they are forced to face their feelings and save the world.
Reimagining of season 4 (and prior) because I miss Eddie. Eventually follows season 4-ish. I take some liberties: first and foremost, Eddie doesn't die because he deserves better.
