id : a digital painting in warm tones with visible brushstrokes on a dark background. steve is lying on his side, propped on his elbow with top surgery scars and an open billowy shirt tucked in dark trousers. he is gazing up at eddie, who is sat facing the viewer and yet looking slightly down at steve, his expression conflicted. his hair is loose with a few small white flowers tucked behind his ear, a white shirt with rolled up sleeves and a dark green waistcoat and dress pants. he is fidgeting with his hands on his lap./end id

my guest is gone and it is once again 3am. Behold! the twelfth night inspired steddie painting!

WIP Weekend | 7.17 - 7.19

It's been a while...

Seriously, it's been a hectic July. It's one of the busiest times of year for my job, so writing has been a struggle recently. Luckily, we are winding down with a lot of the high-stakes projects I've been assigned to, so that means more time and energy for writing!

Easing back into WIP Weekend with an All-SBB weekend! Send me an ask with your favorite Stranger Things GIF for a snippet of my SBB project!

To get you started, here's a snippet of what I've been working on...

"Steve?"

Steve tilted his head toward the quiet call of his name, cracking an eye open to see Eddie standing in the doorway of the little room where the toilet was. He was backlit by the bathroom sconces, Steve hissing at the stabbing pain that felt like it traveled through his eye into his brain, tilting his head back down to press his eyes into his forearms. He heard the soft click of the light switch and heard the shuffle of fabric as Eddie returned to the doorway.

"Are you…is everything okay, Steve?" Eddie questioned softly, reaching out as if to touch him but second-guessing and pulling back.

"Migraine," Steve bit out as he felt another wave of nausea hit him, groaning and trying not to gag. He didn't want to puke in front of Eddie, in front of anyone. The act made him anxious enough anyway, his body breaking out in a cold sweat as his heart rate skyrocketed. "Ed…out. G'na puke."
