Summary
"Adriana?" Eddie sputters out.
If you asked Eddie to guess who was on the other side of the door when the doorbell rang, his first guess wouldn't be his youngest sister. It wouldn’t even be in the list of his guesses.
The youngest Diaz smiles, teasing and eyebrows wagging, "Hello, Edmundo."
-
Or: Eddie’s trip to the Zoo with Buck and Christopher, becomes a trip to the Zoo with Adriana. He ends up losing some things along the way, but earning something more important.

“Come on, Rav. Have a little fun. Sing with me!” Buck pats his knees, keeping his eyes focused on the road, “Live your life with arms wide open. Today is where your book begins. The rest is still unwritten!”
“Are you—” Ravi squints at him, “Are you fucking quoting Natasha Bedingfield right now?”
-
Or: Ravi celebrates fifteen years being cancer free. Buck takes him out for a drive.

Summary
“How did you manage to get this anyway?” Buck asks to fill the silence, “You already had the bat, you know.”
Eddie’s lips twitch, “It’s from when I punched the wall.”
Buck nods, chewing on his own lips. He’s not really sure what to say, “Well, good punch.”
Eddie stares at him, blinking like a cat before he cracks a small smile. Oh? Buck straightens up. It’s a small smile, it’s not the eyes crinkling, gummy smile. But it’s a smile.
Or: Eddie has his breakdown. It leads to healing, forgiving and brand new chances.

Summary
The doctors start prepping them, as a flood of interns come into the room to watch two grown men be pulled apart like two meats on a stick.
“That x-ray is giving soulmates.” One of the interns says as they inspect the x-ray still hung up on the wall.
“What the hell does giving soulmates mean?” Buck murmurs against Ravi’s shoulder, quiet enough that it’s just for them.
Ravi laughs.
Or: Buck and Ravi get pinned together by a rebar pole. They get a few stitches, a broken arm and a platonic soulmate in exchange.

Call Me a Fool (When Night Comes Down) by That_Silly_Fox
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
28 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
Vecna is dead. Fried crispy, by all accounts. But that doesn't mean the Upside Down is done yet.
Steve, however, has other problems. Now that the Party made it out with everyone alive, his brain has developed the habit of reminding him that Eddie Munson exists. And that Steve might have a capital 'T' thing for him. A thing that is not capital 'P' platonic. Which he can totally handle. It's not like he'll do anything stupid, Steve knows better. Call him: Steve 'Rational' Harrington.
Maybe he should be thankful that they get a few months to figure out life again before it all goes to shit. Until he gets the phone call that drags him into the thick of it again. But maybe this is the last time. God, Steve really hopes this is the last time.
(OR: A 'what if...' Season 5, where Eddie Munson is a little worse for wear but a-okay and Steve Harrington has time to consider a few things)
(OR, OR: Summer is on the way, meaning movies, pool parties, and a few too many beers... At least until the Upside Down claws its way back, because this is Hawkins, Indiana, and stranger things will always happen)
(OR, OR, OR: The (Second) Vanishing of Will Byers)

Summary
The man standing next to Nancy blinks, eyebrows rising as he scans the room.
“Wow,” he says in a shockingly deep voice. “I…was not expecting everyone to be here.”No one else says anything. Steve thinks maybe he did get drugged again because what the fuck? This guy sure looks like Steve, if he was older and with an impressive scruff of beard. But this guy’s muscled, with jagged scars peppering the skin not covered by his t-shirt. Surely it can’t be.
“Holy hell,” Robin breathes. “Time shit.”
AKA: Season 4, but this time the universe gives the gang an unexpected heads-up.

Summary
“Then I almost left the sandwiches in Eddie’s van!”
Robin gasps dramatically, cradling her half-eaten PB&J against her chest. She’s in a much better mood now, after one and a half sandwiches, more apologizing from Steve and his dramatic retelling of this morning’s events.
“Which would be just my luck today, I swear! But Eddie wouldn’t let me forget them,” Steve says, his smile turning dopey the moment he brings up Eddie. He knows this because he sees Robin rolling her eyes. “So I grabbed them and then I-”
And that’s when it hits Steve. What he did. Almost an hour after the fact.
The fact being- He kissed Eddie.
or Steve accidentally kisses Eddie during what’s already a disastrous morning
