sfw, just fluff, taking care of stevie bc he deserves it
"What's that green one there?" Steve asks inquisitively over your shoulder.
"'S a clay mask," you tell him, meeting his gaze in the bathroom mirror. He looks admittedly a bit intrigued, but you know him well enough to know that he'd never ask to try it; whether out of bashfulness or insecurity or both.
"Can I put some on you?" You turn to ask, "Makes your skin nice and soft."
"That explains a lot, huh?" Steve grins, running the backs of his knuckles along your cheek. You raise an eyebrow in expectation, waiting for him to answer your question. "Sure, okay. Yeah," Steve chuckles, conceding.
You instruct him to lay on your bed, wanting to make the most out of the opportunity to pamper him. Once he's settled, you straddle his hips gently, squeezing the mask out onto the brush you usually use to apply it to your own face.
Steve scrunches his nose at first, "Feels weird," he breathes, unnecessarily quiet as if you might come to your senses any minute now, "Cold."
You huff a laugh, "I know, sorry, baby."
"S'okay," Steve sighs softly, letting his eyes drift closed. You think it must feel amazing, how gently you're applying it. He doesn't even know it's on purpose.
Steve rests with his head in your lap while the mask dries on his skin, your fingers threading softly through the dark brown of his hair. Little puffs of air escape his lips, more rhythmically the longer you spend playing with his locks.
"Don't fall asleep on me, Stevie," you say softly, leaning down to kiss the crown of his head, "Still gotta wash the mask off."
All you get in response is a quiet hum. A grunt, more like.
"It's dry, baby, c'mon," you shake his shoulders lightly, urging him to come with you back to the bathroom.
"Wanna stay here," he says sleepily, maybe a little petulantly. The smile it brings to your face makes your cheeks sore with how long you've spent encouraging him to let himself be babied. You're happy to do it.
"Alright, stay here--" you grunt softly as you rise from the bed, returning to Steve with a warm, wet washcloth from the sink.
Steve's eyes remained closed as you wipe the mask from his skin, the cloth coming away a pretty shade of mint green. You whisper to him all the while, even if you're not sure he's awake to hear you.
So pretty, baby
Love taking care of you
Love you.
He hums lightly when you finish and climb off of his lap, grabbing at your hips for you to stay.
"Let me put this in the wash first--"
"Leave it on the nightstand, I'll get it later." He murmurs in response.
And he just sounds so sweet, you couldn't deny him if you wanted to. Doomed from the start.
I think we're all in agreement that Steve is a certified loverboy, I think it's Eddie however, who is the clingiest. I think he doesn't really like to let you out of his arms, I think he enjoys holding you close to him at any opportunity he gets. Just like a koala in human form
i WOULD have agree with you there, diva
i'd like to psychoanalyze why he's like that because i'm insane, and i wanna say it's because he has, say it with me, mommy issues
idk if it's established in the show what exactly happened to her, but i feel like the fandom has collectively decided that she's dead (pls do correct me if i'm wrong)
i feel like eddie would always kinda, carry that with him. he's lost a lot of people, so it reaches beyond the point of normal clinginess and turns into more on an anxiety thing. he just likes to keep you in his sight
Underrated steddie dynamic is Steve being his confident slutty flirty Casanova self rolling a nat 20 on charisma so to say and Eddie over in the corner, breathing heavily through his nose and staunchly reminding himself of His Principlesā¦his Morals
havenāt forgotten about you, pookies. a little āthe summer I got hotā selfie dump beneath the cut. iāve been living my best life š«¶š» will be diving back in deep here once fall rolls around š¤
being a poc sucks because sometimes a movie comes out about discrimination and they'll have The Racist Guy, a character who's clearly meant to embody oppression and prejudice against minorities. and then you open up tumblr and everybody's like omg i could totally fix Racist Guy trust me guys!!! Racist Guy x reader 20k spicy slowburn #canoniswhatimakeit here's a massive gifset for Racist Guy he's just soooooooooooooo hot. you guys look like this
also if you say anything about it they'll be like omg just let people enjoy things!!!!!! like sure ok yeah. but this character does not exist in a vacuum, they exist in a piece of media that is making political commentary, commentary that you are pretending doesn't exist by blorbofying him. it's still weird
Eddie has a pet bird and every time it sees Steve or someone says his name, the bird whistles and make kissy noises.
Eddie canāt believe that his own feathers and blood is outting him but Steve is just like, āWhy is your bird attracted to me? How would that even work? Like logistically.ā
Steve, a five year old that is clearly allergic to cats, wheezes on over to the police to inform them that heās keeping this cat he found. His eyes are watery and he keeps sneezing, and that cat has a collar.
Finders keepers isnāt going to work here.
āBut I want her,ā Steve wheezes with tears. āThey donāt even know sheās gone! They donāt - they donāt love her like me.ā
Itās about this time that Wayne Munsonās menace of a nephew appears out of nowhere, soaking wet and covered in mud.
Eddie has a toad he fished out of the quarry and he throws it at them before telling Steve to, āRun! Run before the fuzz takes your cat!ā
Steve and Eddie run to Forest Hill where they make a lot of noise, wake up Wayne, get in the truck with him, and drive on over to the hospital. Wayne doesnāt like the way Steveās wheezing even if the kid tells him itās normal.
āItās like a purr,ā Steve tells him. āCause I only do it āround animals. Cause I love āem.ā
And then they walk through the door to the emergency room and find Hopper standing there with his arms crossed.
Son of a house representative and a senator, Steve Harrington is not trying but is still somehow managing to fuck up both his parentsā re-election campaigns.
āIām just saying,ā He shrugs. āIf the thing that doesnāt get you re-elected is me having some fun with my friends than you must not be good at your job.ā
āYou committed treason.ā
āActually, I saved the world. Maybe mention that when your opponent calls me a loser in a debate instead of agreeing with them.ā
āYou were also caught hotboxing in a van with a man that was accused of multiple murders.ā
āThose charges were dropped and we werenāt hotboxing,ā Steve says. āWe were fucking.ā
