Summary
He can't stay here forever. He's got to keep moving, right? That's the sensible thing to do. That's the only thing that really makes sense here. In his chest, his heart feels like a wild, rabbiting thing, irregular with panic. He forces himself to take a deep breath through his nose, the air rank and sulfurous. He chokes on it, spits, the taste in his mouth bloody and sour. When he gets to his feet, he stumbles — the pain in his side is awful, worse than anything he's ever felt, and he finds himself wondering how the hell Steve Harrington took similar punishment and shook it off like it was nothing.
"Okay, Munson," he tells himself through gritted teeth. "C'mon, man. Get your shit together."

When he wakes up in the Upside Down, Eddie has to do his best to survive. He camps out at the Harringtons' house, and he tries to work out a way to break through. This fic happens at the same time as at last teach my how to touch my dead. I think this works as a stand-alone, probably, but it'll make more sense if you read it from Steve's perspective first.
