Wip Weekend: For What it's Worth Prom!

Hello hello!

This one goes back in time a bit from where the series is at present, and it throws the numbering off, so I've given up. It's about halfway done, I think?

“Maybe you pissed him off,” Gareth suggests, and now it’s Eddie’s turn to scoff. “Gary,” he drawls, just to watch the irritation flash across Gareth’s face, “trust me, if Steve were pissed off, we’d all know about it. It wouldn’t even be a question.” This much is true; Steve has never been shy about letting other people know when something has annoyed him, usually in the form of amusingly dry remarks (but occasionally in the form of energetic little rants that Eddie adores watching). Eddie is fairly confident that if he’d done something to upset Steve, he’d know it. At least ninety-five percent confident. Maybe ninety. Ish. He returns to the matter of the lack of a goodbye “kiss.” “But fine. Let’s just say, for the sake of argument,” Eddie says, turning back to Gareth, “that I pissed him off. How, pray tell?” Gareth gives an uncomfortable sort of shrug. “I don’t know, I just – like, wasn’t he Homecoming King or whatever last fall?” “Yeah,” Eddie says, waving his hand in a sort of ‘go on’ gesture. “And?” “And, I dunno!” Gareth tosses his hands up. “I just mean that he’s the sort of person who goes to school dances, and he probably likes them, and you’ve been sitting here all week calling people who like school dances morons and shit. That’s all I’m saying.”

Curious about a WIP?

more Wayne pov sequel pretty pleaseeeeee 🥺🌷

How could I say no???

First and Second and Third and Fourth and Fifth parts that are right before this one:

Linda's mouth is almost a perfectly straight line with how much she's pursed her lips the more he talks, but she doesn't interrupt and no customer calls for her, so he continues. "And you know what Richard Harrington was like. I know y'all only shared one school year together, but Janice wasn't any better, and she was your year, wasn't she?" Linda gives him one nod in response. "That boy's a product of them. I- You can't fault me for thinkin' differently." "So, when do you expect Eddie to end up in prison?" The question throws Wayne and fills him with anger at the same time. "Now, Linda, I ain't likin' what you are implyin'."

(idk if you're accepting multiple asks so feel free to ignore if not) also chapters 11-20 of epic Platonic soulmate mixtape 💃🕺

yes i totally am! everybody wanted so much starbara lol so I'm happy to share a little bit of some tweaked RaSEPSM lines.

Steve just shook his head and said, “Nah. If he can’t handle being normal about you liking a sport, he doesn’t get to know about the fun stuff.” El hummed, nodding. “So I tell him about the goat curse as a… reward? For being a good boyfriend?”

Also for wip weekend (im silly i got it wrong on the last one i think) June Writing 👀👀👀

Another snippet for Devi 💖 Until an hour ago my June Writing doc had three sentences in it 😅

Also, this is how bad my brain is. I start researching details for a fic and then get brainworms for something else. I went from looking for the price of a La-Z-Boy in 1985 to obsessing over the idea of the Harrington's getting a jacuzzi/hot tub.

“Your parents installed a jacuzzi?” “Yes!” Steve practically shrieks, his voice echoing through the store. Thank god Family Video is empty. Eddie pouts, his dimples indenting his cheeks as he runs a ring-adorned finger over the advertisement and circles the rounded edges of the jacuzzi. He then moves to trace the hairline of the handsome male figure in the picture, who has his arm around a pretty blonde and nursing a cocktail with his free hand. Steve rolls his eyes at the thought that such a fake and stupid picture could entice his parents into purchasing another outdoor accessory they will probably never use.

help me work on my wips this weekend

AAA QUINCY HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYY!!! 💕💓💗💖💞💝 hope you have literally the best day in the history of ever!!!

THANK YOU DEV!!! its been soooo fun i saw so many bugs at the bug museum. look at these LEAFCUTTER ANTS!!!!!! AND THEIR FUNGUS!!! the woman who ran it opened the enclosure so i could look really close at them. they were so fucking cool

[vampirebambi]

for the ficlet ideas thing, i personally can never get enough of haunted house/trail/attraction where eddies a scare actor and steves going with someone (robin or other teens, the kids, unnamed bad date, etc). au or canon compliant (i haven't seen post s3 pre s4 yet), i think itd be fun to explore steve fight-or-flight response he got from the upside down shit and eddie having a flair for the dramatic but also being able to tell how scary he should be for certain people (kids or nervous people needing more space than regular scare-lovers)(maybe he reads steves type wrong, maybe he's one of the only actors to get it right)

I said it on the post but i have to thank you again here cuz i LOVED THIS IDEA SO MUCH!!!

I tagged you but I'll put the link for it HERE as well!!!

Thank you so much again!!!!

aaaand Steve with OCD 💕

Okay, this one I actually don't have any text down for. I made a post about Steve having OCD last year and I really like the concept, and I want to turn it into more of a fic than a "guys, imagine with me" post

If I were to develop it more, Eddie would probably be a great way to explore the topic. Shipping reasons aside, he's the one coming in late, viewing Steve and his compulsions with fresh eyes. Everyone else has gotten used to Steve's "quirks" and they don't really think twice about them; in some cases, they've even learned to accommodate them.

They don't question why Steve needs to do things in a certain order, why he needs objects around the house to be in certain places, why he needs to tap the roof of the car three times before he gets in, they just know that he does. That's just Steve

And Eddie - well, look, he's not questioning it, exactly. Like, he's not one to cast aspersions on anyone else's coping mechanisms, it's just that he worries that these particular coping mechanisms aren't actually helping

Sure, on a good day, Steve gets to do everything in exactly the right order, everything is exactly where it's supposed to be, he gets to complete his routines and everyone is safe and he's happy. But when something gets interrupted--as it often does, because that's life--Steve tends to look like he's one shirt caught on the doorknob away from a complete meltdown

It's a delicate balance, and Eddie's starting to wonder if maybe he's the only one noticing that Steve could easily tip over the side

Or! I could go a sort of lighter route and make it, like, a 5+1 fic about Eddie noticing different behaviors Steve exhibits, and one time he learns how to help, or something like that. I haven't quite decided yet
