    Summary

    Eddie solemnly saluted his phone as he clamped it into the holder on his handlebars and swung his leg over,

    ‘Fear not, Steve H. Your dildo is on its way!’

    Summary

    Eddie Munson, capitalist-hater and full-time menace, makes it a point to visit Scoops Ahoy three times a week—not for the ice cream, but to get a rise out of one Steve Harrington. At least, that’s what Robin thinks.

    Summary

    He’s pretty sure that’s when he reaches his breaking point. Everything that’s happened in the past however many days rushed into his brain like a shock of electricity. He feels his breath get shakier as he lowers himself down.

    A hand cards through the profoundly greasy hair and pulls him in. He’s a little lost in thought as this happens so he just goes with it. He feels a bit weightless, as though he’s in the bathtub, sight, sound, touch, taste, smell, all slightly out of reach. It’s a freefall.

    He’s falling.

    God knows when he’ll fucking land.

    Summary

    “No, man, I’m Eddie. Eddie Munson from algebra? We both flunked math horrendously and you kept bothering me for my notes, as if that was going to help. I’m what your old friends said about me. Y’know…freak drug dealer satanist Eddie Munson? That’s me.”

    “Oh,” Steve breathes out. “Oh”—he snaps his fingers on both hands and points finger guns in Eddie’s direction—“That’s why I’m here! Because you’ve got drugs! And I’m somebody who needs ‘em!”

    “Uhhh”—Eddie reappears in the living room, two glasses of ice water in his hands—“no, absolutely not. I am not selling anything to you, dude.”

    “Is it ‘cause of my face? ‘Cause that’s why I need drugs. It hurts.”

    Summary

    Jim is starting to put it together. The waiting all day to eat. The bruise on his jaw. The lack of money for food. God, the kid probably walked six miles to get here.

    Jim isn't stupid, he can connect the dots. But Jim also knows when not to push things. When not to rock the boat. When sometimes, even if it pains him, helping someone can be a lost cause.

    ---
    or How family isn't always blood and love comes in more ways than one.

    (or Steve Harrington getting the care he deserves, even if it does take a little while.)
