    Summary

    Eddie Munson apparently didn't get the memo that you can't just bite the people you're interested in. But Steve decides that he's surprisingly willing to hear him out.

    Summary

    “Well, in my experience,” Raylan said, brushing off his hat and staving down the sick surprise that had twisted his gut at the sight of Boyd’s name. “There’s one thing most folks have in common, irrespective of time passed or time changed. They stay dead.”

    Summary

    The music feels like it’s echoing around Eddie’s skull with how loud it’s gotten and he fumbles over the counter for the radio, batting at the volume dial. It never fades out though, and he reaches for the cord, yanking it free from the wall. “It was so— fucking loud,” Eddie rubs his temple, “Sorry, I’m sorry.”

    Steve is staring at him as if he can hone in on what exactly Eddie is thinking. He offers up a shaky huff of a laugh, “Radio was fine, Ed, you barely had it on.” He plucks at the plastic netting on a bag of apples when he tells him, “I wish you would move in with us. With me and Robin.” It’s a burst of a statement.

    Eddie can't shake the shadows of Hawkins, even if he runs away

    Summary

    The magazine is… interesting.

    It’s clean, for one, looks like it was barely removed from its plastic sleeve before it was abandoned here. Secondly, it has quite possibly the funniest cover Eddie’s ever seen on a skin mag.

    TITS! the title reads in exuberant block letters. The hottest new male erogenous zone for the late 70s continues to blaze into the new decade. Herewith, a sizzling nine-page pictorial saluting those magnificent masculine mounds of pleasure.

    Eddie snickers into his fist. A pictorial salute to pectorals, indeed. Fucking man mounds, Jesus Christ.

    Then he gets to the centerfold and the laugh dies in his throat.

    Eddie finds a magazine, then he finds a man.

    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.
