    Summary

    Richard raised his brows. “Oh?”

    Anita highlighted something. Someone. “Oh,” she affirmed. She slid the open pamphlet across the table to him.

    The page was open to last names starting with M. There was a single golden highlight on the page, a long-haired alpha Richard had never seen before named Edward Munson.

    Summary

    The guys all shot-pointed looks at Eddie, Jeff being the first to say “Eddie has a huge crush on this one NHL goalie.”

    Eddie felt his face slide into a pleased grin as he nodded. “Steve Harrington. Toronto Maple Leafs.”

    The interviewer's eyebrow crooked. “Oh yeah? You a big hockey fan?”

    His mouth opened but Gareth beat him to it “No, you don’t understand. He had never watched a full game before this in his whole life. The only things he knows about hockey is what has to do with Steve.”

    Summary

    'He would get over it. He would be able to push this down deep. He did it all of his life. Every time he fucked a girl, and wished it was a guy. Every time he fucked his hand, and cried because he thought it could be Eddie. He was good at burying his feelings. He was good at pretending that he wasn’t bothered by these things. That he was fine.'

     

    Steve moves to Indianapolis with Robin and Eddie. Together they all find their queerness, and the rest is history.

    Summary

    After a moment, Steve pauses to pull away from Eddie. He reaches up and tucks a stray curl behind Eddie’s ear, and his fingertips trace along Eddie’s cheekbone on the way back down.

    Steve drops his head back against the pillow and sighs. “It’s been a long day, and I’m not really up for…”

    Chastened, Eddie sits back on his heels as embarrassment colors his cheeks pink. “That’s okay. It’s okay. We can just hang out. Watch TV. Or go to sleep. Whatever.”

    “That’s not what I meant.” Steve hooks his fingers in the hem of Eddie’s t-shirt and tugs him closer, until they’re almost nose-to-nose again. His eyes flick down to Eddie’s lips. “I’m just saying, I don’t need anything. What do you need?”

    Or: After Steve moves out of his parents' house and into an apartment with Eddie, he goes on medication to treat his depression. It's great, except for the part where it messes with his sex drive. Thankfully, Steve and Eddie are nothing if not resourceful. (Slightly aged-up smut, set in '89.)

    tl;dr: I’ve never been homophobic before, but whenever I see my gay roommate with other guys it makes me feel like shit and it’s ruining our friendship. How can I stop acting like an asshole and make things go back to normal?

    ---

    Steve moves in with Eddie under the illusion that he's straight. Straight, and weirdly, distressingly invested in his roommate's sex life.

    "Hello? Ed, is that you? What's all that noise? What's going on?"

    "Wayne, can you come pick me up ... I’m at a party at the Harringtons’ house ... I don't wanna talk about it, man … Can you please just come get me? Please."

    Eddie hangs up the phone and swallows down the lump in his throat.

    He refuses to cry in Steve Harrington's kitchen.

    Summary

    "But they definitely knew how to choke each other out. Insecurities ran deep and were easy to point out. Like mold on bread slices.

    So it makes perfect sense that they constantly argued too. Usually mundane situations. Things like: “Ugh, Steve! It’s my turn to choose what we watch, enough with the basketball!” and “Eddie, stop leaving your dishes strewn about!” and “No, I’ll pick up everybody and drop them off!” Though, these were quickly resolved. A deep breath taken, a compromise made, and a few warm pecks exchanged.

    However, on a slow Thursday evening in the middle of November, things go haywire."

    OR
    Steve and Eddie argue, and Steve uses a safeword to end the argument

    OR
    Somebody on Twitter, cannot remember who, was itching for a fic where someone has to safeword out of an argument. Thought it was a cool idea and it's been marinating in my brain for god knows how long. If you know who mentioned this on Twitter, please let me know!

    Update: I added a second chapter! So if you're seeing this again and are confused, that's why!

    My take on the Shovel Talks Trope

    Now with the help of Eddie, the Byers, and El, they get everyone else to recognize Steve's worth and to apologize.

    He doesn’t even bother to get out at first, just sitting there, fingers drumming against the wheel, staring at the front door like maybe the answer will appear in the peeling paint or the chipped screen. Maybe Steve will just appear in the doorway and explain it all.
    Of course, no one appears.

    Summary

    Eddie shuffles closer to him. Knows he shouldn’t, knows he should steer this somewhere neutral, somewhere more distant, something more akin to just checking in on a friend but he can’t, he can’t. Not when Steve’s looking bashful, not when he’s awkwardly picking up a bit of paper again and folding it anxiously, not when he smells like the sea on a summer’s day and honey-sweet all at once.

    “Seriously Steve, this is cool. Maybe you could make something for a campaign? Figurines are expensive, and honestly some of these are better. We could paint them, too.”

    Steve looks up at him then. Really looks, and Eddie’s heart gallops in his chest at the sight of those warm brown eyes.

    “I made them all for you,” Steve murmurs.

    *****

    In the wake of Vecna's defeat, with his friends busy with the aftermath, Steve takes up origami, tries to heal his scars in his big empty house , and falls in love with the alpha that comes to visit him daily.

    Eddie.

    Summary

    "If he’s being honest, Steve didn’t even know he had a breaking point with shovel talks until he gets his fifth one [...].
    It’s not even a shovel talk. It’s just a single sentence, said almost a month after [he] learned about their relationship."

     

    Steve receives several shovel talks once he starts dating Eddie. Eddie receives zero shovel talks. Why does everyone think Steve's going to end up hurting Eddie?

    Summary

    Steve has been in love with Eddie for years and it takes one look for Eddie to realize it. Eddie's been in love with Steve for just as long; too bad it's not as simple just confessing.

    Excerpt:
    "You're in love with me," Eddie gasps, a revelation and an accusation all in one.
    And Steve. Beautiful, perfect Steve, doesn't deny. In fact, he has the audacity to shrug sheepishly with one shoulder. "Of course, I am."
