If I Only Could

Pairing: Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson Rating: Explicit (E) Notes: Y’all - this ship is living in my brain & I can’t get it out. This isn’t the last you’ll see of my Steddie work. They deserve all the happiness in the fucking world! Word Count: ~5K Warnings: There’s a tiny bit of smut in here, but it’s me writing, so when is that not the case? Summary:

He still felt the shocking cold of Eddie’s silver rings against sensitive skin. Steve didn’t know what he’d been expecting, but the soft touch was not it. None of the intimacy Steve shared with anyone else felt so all consuming. Until Eddie decided to close the space between them, Steve had only experienced kisses and caresses that were one dimensional. They were for pleasure and pleasure only. Eddie made everything technicolor, locking into all of his senses in a way that made Steve truly live the moment. Each second was to be admired and clung to, stored away for later perusal.

OR - a sorry excuse for a little fluffy PWP!

Excerpt:

“Robs, I think I’m going to take off.” Steve spoke as he pulled the dull vest off. Without the uniform on, Steve almost felt human again.

Robin’s answer was distracted when delivered a moment later – she looked like she was floating on happiness and endorphins, barely acknowledging him as he walked past. Steve shook his head with fondness, throwing a half-assed goodbye over his shoulder.

The cool night air caressed his skin, drawing up goosebumps that radiated and took over. His brain immediately connected the feeling to the previous evening where guitar calloused fingers ghosting over the back of his neck brought about the same feeling. Ducking into his car, Steve distractedly settled himself into the driver’s seat. Everything felt a little floaty, the recollection stuck in his mind making everything else disappear.

He still felt the shocking cold of Eddie’s silver rings against sensitive skin. Steve didn’t know what he’d been expecting, but the soft touch was not it. None of the intimacy Steve shared with anyone else felt so all consuming. Until Eddie decided to close the space between them, Steve had only experienced kisses and caresses that were one dimensional. They were for pleasure and pleasure only. Eddie made everything technicolor, locking into all of his senses in a way that made Steve truly live the moment. Each second was to be admired and clung to, stored away for later perusal.

Steve closed his eyes, leaning forward in his seat until he could rest his forehead against the smooth leather steering wheel. Taking a couple of deep breaths, Steve managed to get himself focused enough to start the car and get out of the parking spot before Robin saw the error of her ways and changed her mind. Now that he was free, Steve didn’t want to waste a second – Wayne Munson was working all night leaving Eddie all alone, and that just wouldn’t do.

For context: In that production of King Lear by the Royal Shakespeare Company, Sir Ian McKellen, playing the titular character in a scene where Lear has essentially gone round the bend, strips completely naked right there on stage. New York critic Michael Portantiere, noted in his review, “Special note for those who care about such things: In a brief nude scene, McKellen amply demonstrates the truth of Lear’s statement that he is ‘every inch a king’.”

#wow go ian mckellan #also a+ flirting there taron

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

The above scene is amazing but I also feel we need to take a moment to appreciate the fact that a respected theatre critic took time to mention in their review of this production of King Lear that Ian McKellen has a truly impressive penis

I love the different sorts of pleased Ian McKellen is here.

A Place Where We Can Lay Low

Will recognizes his inability to look at the murder scenes and not get stuck there early into the Garrett Jacob Hobbs case - instead of sticking it out and letting the ghosts catch up to him, Will makes a hasty retreat. He quickly makes a life for himself as a motorcycle mechanic, serving the locals and enjoying his solitude. Fate, however, can’t be denied.

Check out what happens when a fleeing Hannibal walks into Will’s shop with a repair need of his own.
