Summary
The gate is closing.
Dustin lands on the floor of the real-world Munson trailer, managing not to injure anything else this time, but he hardly notices as he sees the rift that has also split the world on this side begin mending itself. The roof and side of the trailer reform, sealing together as the vines and the very crack itself disappears. Looking back up, all Dustin can do is watch as the opening grows smaller and smaller.
"Steve!" he calls, helpless. "No, no, no, no!"
"It's okay!" Steve shouts back to him, even though Dustin knows that it isn't. "We'll find another way out! Get to Nancy and Robin!"
And the vines retreat into the ceiling as the gate seals itself, slicing the last of the hanging sheet in half and leaving almost no trace that a giant portal to another world was ever there at all.
*Or, Steve goes back for Dustin after everything and gets trapped in the Upside Down, alone with Eddie. But that is only the beginning.
This story is from Robin, Dustin, Steve, and Eddie's POVs, as they all deal with what happens now.

Summary
Three weeks into their delightful slog across Westeros, during yet another charming day of shitting in the woods, eating half-raw squirrel, and trudging his feet bloody, the single most dour and uninteresting woman Jaime had ever met in all of Westeros stopped in the middle of a field, drew a deep breath, and said, “When I was seven, my aunt came to visit with her son. My father told me that as the daughter of the house, it was my duty to show hospitality to my guests and to be gracious to them. I wanted to make him proud. So for three weeks, I let my cousin follow me around and talk to me about spiders.”

Summary
An unassuming middle class Chicago suburb is not where you’d expect to find the home of a certified rock legend, but that’s where I found myself when looking to interview the elusive Eddie Munson.
In stark contrast from his seemingly no holds barred, outrageous on-stage persona, Eddie Munson has remained a tough nut to crack when it comes to tying him down for an interview about more personal matters than music. He is notoriously private about his life offstage and has kept a fairly tame profile compared to many of his contemporaries from the Seattle grunge scene. But today I was granted the interview everyone has been after, the man himself is ready to let us in and let me tell you ladies & gentlemen, you’re in for a treat, Munson’s got a few bombshells to drop.

Summary
Steve pauses and looks ahead past his own car to see none other than Eddie Munson for the second time today. The lights in his beat-up dark blue Chevrolet are on, giving Steve a perfect look inside. Eddie seems to be getting ready to pull out of the parking lot, a cigarette in his mouth with smoke winding around the air and leaning back with his eyes closed against the seat. Suddenly, as if he knows he’s being watched, he looks up and catches Steve stopped in the middle of the lot, staring.
Eddie doesn’t flinch, just raises an eyebrow, his expression unreadable under the faint glow of the dashboard lights. The smoke curls upward, haloing his face in a way that makes him look more like a phantom than a guy who just bought records across the mall. For a split second, neither of them moves. Then Steve, still clutching his keys, shifts awkwardly and offers a small nod, casual, like he hadn’t just been caught standing there staring like a total weirdo.
Eddie tips his chin in return, something like a half-smile ghosting across his face. With a two-fingered salute, Eddie just turns up the music in the van and starts backing up his car.

Summary
All in all, Steve is doing just fine. Some days it feels like he’s carved his own red, beating, bloody heart out of his chest but mostly, he knows that life is about the art of losing things and he thinks he’s finally mastered that after all.
Four months was all it took to adjust to life in Maryland, life without a family or home.
At the beginning of the fifth month, Eddie Munson walks in the front door.

Steve’s mind is racing. Would it be possible to solve Eddie’s problem, and by extension, his own problem, without a lick of jail time for either of them?
It’s genius, he thinks. Even Dustin would be proud of him.

Summary
Rock band AU in which Robin, Eddie, Jonathan, Nancy, and Chrissy play in a band, and Steve has no choice but to hang out with the most annoying frontman in the world, Eddie Munson. Things escalate when they're forced to pretend they're in a relationship.
Modern AU, fake-dating (kind of).

Summary
Steve leans against the side of the boathouse and lets Eddie fumble with the cheap Bic lighter for a minute before he clears his throat and says, “You want a light?”
It's hard to read his tone. There's a bitter, suspicious, self-defensive part of Eddie that wants to lash out, but instead he grips the lighter until the plastic creaks and says, “Sure. If you have one.”
“Yeah.” Steve digs in his pocket and comes up with a nice Zippo. He doesn't hand it to Eddie; instead, he flicks the flame on and holds it out for him to lean down, and there's an intimacy to it that Eddie wasn't quite expecting. Like one of those old Leyendecker paintings. He imagines this tableau sketched out in clean art deco lines: the prom king and the freak. A study in contrasts.

Or: In which Eddie survives the Upside Down, and Steve Harrington turns out to be nothing like he expects.

Summary
The kiss is brief, only a second or two, not even long enough for Steve to really register what's happening before Eddie pulls away. Steve’s frozen in place, his arms still wrapped around Eddie.
Steve blinks down at him. "What?" he says stupidly. What?
Eddie closes his eyes, a weak smile on his lips. "Something to remember me by."
"You're not dying," Steve says. It feels like his mouth isn't attached to his brain anymore; the inside of his head is a dial tone.
"Of course I am," Eddie says, eyes still closed. "I'm dying right now."
"You're not, though." His voice keeps getting higher, for some reason. "You're not going to die here."
"Spare me the pity, Harrington, I know—"
"You're literally not dying right now." His whole body is hot. Is he sweating? "You lost some blood but they didn't get deep enough—I looked—you're going to be fine."
There's a pause. "I'm going to be fine?" Eddie asks, voice also going high and thin. "You're—sure?"
"Yes."
"Fascinating. Great. Are you—could you do me a favor, then, and maybe just—leave me here anyway?"
"What?" Steve says. The dial tone gets louder. "No. Why?"
"No reason," Eddie says, voice tight.

Summary
Steve’s still figuring Eddie out, including the ways Eddie will wheedle and give him shit for an offhand remark or tone of voice. It’s not like Tommy, where there was always something darker looming behind his cocked brow or narrowed eyes. The wrong kind of look meant tipping the scales towards an inevitable violence.
With Eddie the wrong look will get cigarette smoke blown in Steve’s face, the wrong words will get teased, playfully flipped back in a way that makes it feel like Eddie’s gently humbling him. Like each time Steve’s face goes warm with embarrassment it’s another strike to the long-dead King Steve. It’s mostly harmless. It’s intriguing. It’s the type of game Steve wants to understand so he can play it back.
Or, a totally unoriginal post-s4 summer fix-it fic where Steve questions what he’s scared of, what he wants, and where Eddie Munson fits.
Plus—how did Eddie learn how to braid hair?

Summary
“What’s wrong with what I wrote?” Steve whines, running his fingers through his hair until it’s all mussed up and falling into his face.
Chrissy snorts. “It sounds like you’re telling him his hair is frizzy and dry.”
“I said it was pretty!” He throws his hands in the air before crossing them and pouting his lower lip out.
Chrissy can’t help but laugh. She’s always liked Steve. He’s nicer than most of his friends, and he’s easy to talk to. But this is a side she’s never seen of him. She’s not sure anyone has; can’t imagine Carol or Tommy seeing him put his whole heart into something and not tearing it to shreds.
“Do you use conditioner?” she asks, throwing finger quotations around it as she reads it off the crumpled page.
Steve’s blushing again, cheeks all blotchy and red, rather unbecoming for the shoo-in for this year’s prom king. “Well, I thought you said you’d help!” he says, a little too loud for the library.
Or: a secret admirer au.

“Is that Steve fucking Harrington?”
“What’s it to you?” Mike asks snottily. Max turns toward him, already snarling in protection, but Wheeler’s got Steve’s head cradled in his lap, and he’s got his arms raised like he can shield him from this nameless threat.
“What’d you do to his face?” Eddie demands, almost whining, like Steve Harrington having his face bashed in is an affront to him personally.
Or: on the way to the tunnels with Steve Harrington passed out in the back seat, Max crashes into Eddie's van.

Eddie accidentally discovers that Steve Harrington can sing and proceeds to be completely normal about it.
The only issue is that Battle of the Bands is coming up, Corroded Coffin needs a new lead singer and Steve is entirely too willing to do anything he can to prove he's not the same person he used to be.

Vecna dies. So does Eddie. The world doesn't split open. In the aftermath, Steve goes home to an empty house.
Well. Almost empty.
Steve sighs, hanging his head. One more thing. Then he can go to bed.
The dirty towel can wait until later. He tosses it towards the bathtub without looking and turns to the sink, grabbing his toothbrush and toothpaste. When he looks in the mirror, Eddie’s staring back at him.

“You ask a lot of questions about me,” Steve tells him.
“Because you’re interesting,” Munson says, quiet and honest. “You’re a lot different than what I’ve heard.”
Steve hums, eyes closed. “Yeah,” he says, eyes fluttering open when Munson takes the joint from him again, “you are, too.

It’s the Steddie Tattoo Shop AU that nobody asked for!
Eddie gets the hell out of dodge and winds up working in a tattoo shop on Indiana. Maybe gets a couple more tattoos, couple of piercings too. Maybe gives Steve a lil crisis in the process when they run into each other a couple of years down the line.
Rating is for later chapters. You know there’s gonna be a little smut somewhere along the line.
