Summary
When Eddie Munson had to make a choice in the Upside Down, he knew what he had to do.
He just didn't know it would hurt this much. Didn't know he'd had to reckon with his own past before he'd be able to let go.
Didn't know he'd have to figure out where everything went so wrong with Steve fucking Harrington before, well, everything.(or: eddie munson gets the backstory he deserves.)

Summary
November 1983. Between unpaid bills, the supposedly straight jock he’s seeing, and letters from his convict dad, seventeen year old Eddie Munson’s got enough to worry about. But when Will Byers goes missing, it sparks a chain of events that will show there are more depths to Hawkins — and to certain people in it, like infamous Steve ‘The Hair’ Harrington — than he realizes.
/ or, the excessively long slow-burn in which Eddie is involved in the Upside Down from the very beginning.

Summary
A few months after the events of season four Vecna is defeated, at a celebratory party Eddie and Steve get a dare, fake date until one of them chickens out.
ten years later and neither of them have chickened out yet.
But Steve is tired of pretending, tired of knowing everything Eddie does is fake, tired of waiting for Eddie to leave him.
So he proposes, knowing it'll be the end of it all.
But Eddie says yes and soon enough they're preparing for their wedding, preparing for their life together, preparing for kids, and everything else Steve wants for a future with Eddie.
But all of it is fake.
Eddie wasn't supposed to say yes, and he certainly wasn't supposed to marry Steve.Bookmarked by retroklaus

Four's breath is caught in his throat as he slips out of his bed, cautiously taking a few steps forward, reaching out to touch this battered and broken image of himself with a trembling hand, but it's met with nothing, save for icy cold air.
It’s like this boy is… his own ghost.
or, Klaus lives a life of death after death. It haunts him.

Eddie was being kinder than he'd ever expected him to be, like if he pushed too hard Steve would run the other way. And if every bone in his body was telling him he should, why didn’t he want to?

Summary
Eddie doesn’t know why he’s working at Scoops Ahoy in Starcourt Mall. It’s very mostly because he and his uncle have been short of money and because he wants to punish himself for not graduating senior year the second year around. His uncle’s always saying that it’s okay, that he can manage. But Eddie can’t help but owe his uncle so much, so he can endure scooping ice creams in a mall full of people.
or: stranger things if Eddie worked in scoops and was present during all the chaos of s3.
The world revolves around Eddie Munson (especially from Steve's world).(The first two chapters r just rewrites of s3)

Steve Harrington is the golden child, and the king of Hawkins High school. Eddie Munson is the complete and utter opposite, moving to Indiana just before his junior year. Tommy bets Steve to befriend the new kid, and Steve finds himself agreeing to operation Ruin the Life of Eddie Munson.

And what happens, when Steve realizes that he's met his first genuine friend, too?

No Upside Down shenanigans until Chapter Eleven for this fic, and since Vol. 2 seemed to never drop and somehow mysteriously, Vecna was defeated and everyone lived happily ever after, we can make up our own stories! Nah, but this is canon divergent. Really just snatched up the Duffer's characters and said "Make them kiss.”
-This is complete. My Ao3 is somehow glitching, I’m not sure if all the chapters are visible, but they’re all posted on my end!-
(Additional note, you can read Eddie as autistic in this. It isn't outright said, nor is it tagged, but it is heavily implied.)- Language:

Summary
He huffs, lips quivering at the words spewing out of this thing’s mouth. Eddie gulps, forcing himself to look Vecna in the eyes. If he willed himself to stay behind and die for a town filled with people that wanted him dead, then he could face the monster that caused all of this in the first place.
“Are you him?” Eddie grunts through gritted teeth, red glistening on white.
Vecna tilts his head, taking two worrying steps forward, just a few feet from the man held captive. “I could ask you the same thing.”
*
Vecna gives Eddie another chance. That chance is laced with the sweet temptation of revenge.

Robin gave him a look. "You realize he just stole a bag of an M&Ms and a Sugar Daddy while you were distracted by his good looks?"
"I was not distracted! And you could have said something about him stealing!"
"It was more fun watching you. Are you sure you don't want to play for the other team?"
"It doesn't matter, 'cause he has a girlfriend. You just saw them together. And I don't like guys!"

Steve thinks Chrissy is Eddie's girlfriend. Eddie thinks Steve is the stupidest man alive since he won't respond to his flirting at all.

Summary
Dustin’s a hugger. And he seems to have put Eddie on a mental (or physical, the kid’s weird like that) list of people due for a hug, like, every day.
Eddie always laughs and scrubs at his hair and shoves him away, but Dustin always comes back again. Like some kind of loop. Like Dustin’s tied them together, and no matter how hard Eddie shoves, the kid comes swinging back around again. (Eddie doesn’t ever shove that hard, anyway.)
He gets used to it. The way Dustin always squeezes tight, once, twice, around his waist before he lets go. Like he’s making sure Eddie’s there. He gets used to the sweet smell of Dustin’s hair under his chin, like he uses some kind of chick product beneath his hat. He gets used to the consistency of human touch- the novelty of affection, for the first time again in a long time.
Part of him wants to cut it off now, before it ends on its own. (Eddie’s never been one for whom good things last long.) But then he gets an eyeful of Henderson’s wonky, joyful smile as he pulls away, already chattering on about- something, Eddie doesn’t know- and he can’t bear to stop it before its time. Not when Dustin is so generous with his affection, even to crazy freaks like Eddie Munson.

Summary
Eddie had done a lot of running recently. He’d run when Chrissy died, when Jason and his gang was hunting him, when the cops gave his name to the town and started a witch hunt for the freak. He’d run from all of it, and more.
He’d run from the lab. He’d run from Papa.
He couldn’t run any longer.
~*~*~
My own take on the 'Eddie is from Hawkin's Lab' theory!
