    Summary

    Three shots ring out.

    Steve hears them before he feels them; a warm, wet pain burning in his torso, intolerably excruciating.

    There’s a bundle of squawks and screams, outbursts of panic and anger, and it’s only when Hopper falls forwards to take Steve up into a slightly rough, protective hold, does he realize that two of those shots have lodged themselves in his own flesh and bone. (Realizes that he’d moved, instinctively, to shield El, despite never having spoken to her, who’d the gun had been so precisely pointed at, aimed for.)

    Steve Harrington watches his own blood pool and trickle over a series of hands pressed against him, small and large, soft and rugged, and for a moment, wants to stay like this. He can’t.

    Summary

    "When Steve presents as an omega at sixteen, his grandfather is the only one who reacts with anything other than disgust or disappointment. Instead, he very stoically presents him with a wrapped parcel at the family Christmas that year with strict instructions to open it when there’s no-one around..."

    Basically, Steve is spoiled rotten by the pack of pups he accidentally created to the confusion of everyone around him.

    Title from Angel Witch by Angel Witch from the album Angel Witch [1980] (shit you not)
    The album has mad Eddie vibes, I recommend it, but their later stuff isn't as good as the debut album imo.

    Summary

    Steve has been with Eddie and Billy for a couple months now, but they continue to learn new things about each other everyday. Steve learns that Eddie hates cilantro, having the unfortunate curse of tasting soap instead of the actual herb. He also learns that Billy's hair spray is the same as his, having seen him use it once when he was getting ready in the morning at Steve's house but brought his own can. He loves learning new little quirks about his boyfriends and can't wait to know them all some day, but until then they keep discovering. Today, Steve isn't the one who learns something new about either of them, it's their turn to see further into Steve's complex life full of secret DnD knowledge and metal song enjoyment!

    Summary

    The realization should be scary, but his perception of scary went down the drain after beating a demon with a baseball bat in Jonathan Byers' house in '83. And then being tortured by Russians in '85. So, being gay should be... it should be something bigger, he's well aware. But it isn't.

    Or: Steve Harrington likes boys and isn't freaking out about it.
