The One in Which a Time Loop is Fucking Exhausting. by badpancake
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
17 Jul 2022
Tags
Summary
It’s the first time in a while that he doesn’t know what comes next. He’s dove into the water hundreds of times. Screamed as his flesh was torn apart, heard Master of Puppets in the distance and held back tears. Felt Max’s cold, small hand in his as she laid in the hospital bed. There are things that always happen, no matter how hard he tries: El doesn’t arrive in time. Eddie dies. Max is put in a coma.
Steve fails. They lose.
“Steve, how many loops have you been through?”
His head is nodding, and his eyes are watery, and Eddie has approached him like a spooked animal.
“I lost count.”
AKA: The one where Steve Harrington is stuck in a time loop, and Eddie Munson is really fucking hard to save, or: fuck Volume 2, these bitches are in love.

“Wait, wait, wait. You, Erica Sinclair”—Steve brandished his spoon at her, flinging flecks of ice cream spit onto the counter, before flipping it back on himself—“want me to help Eddie Munson get some game?”
“You know, Lucas said it took you a while to get with the program, but this is embarrassing.”

Summary
"You promised! You promised Steve you wouldn’t do anything stupid and then you did the stupidest fucking thing you could possibly do!” Dustin’s voice cracks. He wipes the tears away from his cheeks with his palms.
“Dustin, don’t you think you should…” Steve starts.
“Don’t rescue me, Harrington,” Eddie interrupts. “I’ll take my admonishment.”
-or-
Eddie lives, Steve is merciful, and life in Loch Nora goes on in unexpected ways.

Summary
“I mean, what if I never find someone? People like… like me. I’ve never seen it end well.”
“Well, the first step is probably hanging out with someone other than your friend, right? Meet new people?”Will frowns. “But you still hang out with him. How’re you supposed to get over Eddie if you’re still hanging out with him all the time?”
Steve’s eyebrows shoot upwards. "Uh. What?"

Touched and a little confused after Will Byers came out to him, Steve decides he'll do anything in his power to make the kid feel a little less alienated. Including orchestrating a pretend relationship with Eddie Munson.

Summary
“What fucking happened to you? You didn’t even take your full fifteen. It’s only been twelve minutes.”
“It’s so stupid,” Steve moans, and slumps onto the stool behind the cash wrap.
“It usually is,” Robin scoffs, but there’s fondness in there if you peel back the derision.
“I saw this guy in the shark exhibit,” Steve mutters like he can’t believe he’s even saying it. “Like the hottest guy I’ve ever seen in my life."Based off of the prompt "Steve sees Eddie for the first time through the glass of an aquarium a la Romeo + Juliet" for the FICLET MACHINE collection!

Summary
"The fuck are you doing, Harrington?"
"Getting comfortable." Is the only response Eddie receives before Steve's head lands on his shoulder, half on his chest as he scoots up in the bed. Eddie freezes, mid air guitar solo, and frowns.
"Personal space, dude." He's so proud of his voice for not cracking when he says it, "Heard of it?"
Steve snorts and takes a puff, smoke clouding around his mouth before he blows it away, lips pursed in the air. "Don't think you're one to talk about personal space but I'll move if you want."

Summary
Eddie Munson isn't a very good vampire. He doesn't like to hunt and has never bitten a human in the couple of years since being turned. The problem is that animal blood can only sustain him for so long.
Chicago, Illinois, 1993. Eddie follows the recommendation of another vampire to visit a 'donor,' a human who lets vampires feed off them for a living. What he's not expecting is for said donor to be a ghost from high school past in the shape of Steve Harrington.
"The price is $50 per bite," Steve explained with what sounded like a well-practiced spiel. "That's teeth breaking skin. You choose where you want to bite, but if it's below the belt I'm charging an extra $20 per bite." He paused for a moment, leveling a scrutinizing gaze on Eddie until the vampire nodded his understanding.
Steve's eyebrows lifted. "I'm going to need verbal confirmation, please."
And oh, that tone did something for Eddie. He'd probably be blushing if he had enough blood in his system to reach the right places. As it was, he hadn't had a proper meal in weeks. So he was definitely lacking a human-like complexion.
Title is from "Dumb" by Nirvana. More details on tags in the notes!Series

“Alright, listen. You want to romance Max? It’s easier said than done.” When Lucas’s face falls, Steve is quick to tack on, “But it is doable. There are steps. Six of them.” He spreads his hands theatrically, bending a little at the waist as if setting the scene.

Summary
Eddie believes three core things about the art of performance. 1. all the world's a stage. 2. performance is both a weapon and a shield, he wields it as both. And 3. you can’t act death.
To quote Stoppard: “It’s not gasps and blood and falling about—that isn’t what makes it death. It’s just a man failing to reappear, that’s all…”
And Eddie had gasped and bled and fell about, and was foolish enough in that moment to believe that was death. But he forgot a crucial step: he reappeared.
Or: Steve is taking it day by day, flitting between the high school and the hospital and Hopper’s cabin, locking any thoughts of Eddie Munson away at the back of his mind. Meanwhile, Eddie is just trying to get out of the Upside Down, with nothing but a nail-shield and the world's worst company.

Summary
On shaking legs, Eddie slowly stood up and turned to face Dustin again. Though he had been expecting it, Eddie felt a punch in the gut as he took in the image before him. He saw himself, lying in Dustin’s arms, covered in blood. His eyes were wide open, staring into nothing. Unblinking. Eddie could feel bile rising in his throat. That was him. His body. He was dead, but somehow he was still here, still around.
Eddie sat down hard on the ground, eyes still glued to the pair in front of him.
“Fuck.”
(Or, Eddie becomes a ghost after he dies and, though he can't communicate through normal channels, tries to find his way back to the Party)

Summary
Steve Harrington never planned for Eddie Munson.
Steve was supposed to marry his high school sweetheart, have 2.5 children, and take over the family business. He was supposed to live a blissful life on a nondescript cul-de-sac, complete with a white picket fence and a closet full of tasteful polo shirts. He was supposed to make a graceful transition between being the golden boy and being the American Dream.
Mediocrity was what destiny had designed for Steve. Reality had other plans.
(Or, Steve and Eddie, against all odds, fall in love)

Summary
Steve jerks awake, sitting up so quickly that Robin almost topples over and staring wildly around the room. When his gaze lands on Eddie, he blanches visibly.
“Oh, shit,” he mutters. “Come on, no. Come on. Not again.”
“Harrington?” Eddie asks slowly. He does not love the way that Steve is staring at him right now. He really doesn’t. Steve looks like he’s staring at a ghost, a bloodied monster, like Eddie is something that should not exist in the light of day. “You good, dude?”

Summary
“Alright, well if you want to pretend to be boyfriend and girlfriend, I’m in.” Robin sighed in relief at Eddie’s words after he had straightened up from where he had been bent over the countertop in hysteria. He held a finger up, stopping her sigh in its tracks. “On one condition!”
Robin looked at him questioningly, cocking her head to one side. Eddie smirked sharply, licking his tongue over his teeth in a way that definitely didn’t make Steve’s stomach swoop.
“I get to be the girlfriend.”
