INTRO/FAQ POST | #STEDDIESPOOKTOBER TAG | LAST YEAR
@steddie-spooktober day 3: apples | rated: G | wc: 998
“Wow, he’s really good at that.” Robin remarks as Eddie sloshes back up out of the bucket with yet another apple caught in his grin, “Who'da thunk, huh?”
“Yeah…” Steve breathes, watching Eddie’s hair drip down over his forehead and down his neck, “He’s really good with his mouth.”
Robin chokes on her most recent swig of cider, “I’m sorry, what?!”
“Uh…” Steve feels his face turn hot, “Huh? I didn’t say anything.” He moves to turn away back into the Hoppers’ cabin, an excuse of the bathroom or a new mug of cider ready behind his teeth and Robin on his heels
“Oh no you don’t; you explain yourself this instant Steven Marie Harrington!” She demands, voice much louder than he’d like it to be, “What did you just say about Eddie Munson’s mouth??”
“Nothing that anyone—especially the Eddie in question—needs to hear! Quiet down!” He whispers in a harried tone.
He pulls her into Hopper’s tiny bathroom, snapping the door shut behind him.
“You have a crush on Eddie Munson?! Our Eddie Munson?”
Steve leans back against the door and sighs, letting himself sink to the floor. “Still too loud.” he says, not actually meaning it.
She must’ve been able to tell that he’s trying to stall, so she sinks onto the shallow edge of the tub to wait. One of her knees knocks against the bowl of the toilet, the other against the wall.
“I think I have for a little while now. Since spring break at least.” he confesses, now that he’s in the proper position to do so, here on the bathroom floor.
“You found time to get your first crush on a guy since figuring out you’re bi, and it’s during yet another upside-down related catastrophe.” Robin states rather than asks. “You’re something else, Dingus.”
“Gee, thanks for your support.”
“You have it always, obviously,” she waves him off, “Just surprised that the first I’m hearing about it is when your horny lizard brain tells me for you.”
“It’s been getting really annoying lately.”
“What, having a big gay crush on someone? I feel you.”
“No, lizard brain is being really annoying lately. But yeah, also that.”
Steve’s gaze is stuck on the slightly mis-matched piece of linoleum between his feet, but sees Robin nod her head in his periphery.
Neither say anything for a solid 45 seconds, until: “So what are you going to do about it?”
“Something… eventually… maybe…” he hedges, “Just ‘cause he’s into guys too doesn’t mean he’s into me.”
“Oh yeah, of course he isn’t.”
He rolls his eyes at the sarcasm. “I’m being serious Robin.”
“Me too.”
Steve finally looks up at her.
“Don’t give me that look, I’m being serious about my sarcasm, Steven. Of course Eddie’s into you; you saw how he was flirting with you during the whole Vecna fiasco!” Robin flails her arm around in emphasis, “How he’s been flirting with you ever since.”
“What if that’s not just for me though, he’s annoyingly charming to everyone!”
“He may be charming,” She grimaces (“Hey!”), “But that doesn’t mean he’s out here flirting with anyone!”
“He just feels comfortable with me.”
“Everyone our age knows about Eddie, Steve, and he’s still been his same dorky self with all them. You’re the only one he’s been flirting with nonstop.”
Steve opens his mouth to respond, but closes it again.
Damn, she’s got a point.
Eddie never calls Jonathan ‘sweetheart’, or Argyle ‘big boy’... he’s heard him say once that Hopper was his first crush when he’d had one too many drinks, but she’s right.. Eddie’s only flirty with him.
Steve suddenly feels all swoopy inside. And it must show on his face somehow, because Robin says “Ew gross, you’re thinking about him aren’t you?”
“No, I’m thinking about Hopper– of course I’m thinking about him!” Steve grins, then pushes him up off the floor. “Okay, okay, I just have to make it through the rest of the day, and I’ll ask him out tomorrow when he comes in to bother us for a free rental at work.”
He looks down at Robin, searching her face for any sign that it isn’t a good plan.
She nods, “Good. Now where are you going to take him?”
The answer to that one was simple, “Movie date at my place.”
Robin snorts, “A bit presumptuous, eh Stevie?”
The floaty feeling in his gut turns into a boulder, “I mean— That’s not what— Obviously I’d love it to—” he cuts himself off for the last time at the smirk on her face. “Oh fuck you.” He shakes his head in fond exasperation as he turns, heading back out of the bathroom.
Robin’s teasing him still when the back door opens and Eddie waltzes in, the round, decorative basket Joyce had been using to put all the apples people fished out of the barrel in his arms and a(nother? The same?) apple lodged in his teeth.
He spots them and puts the basket down on the island, spinning dramatically to lean onto the tabletop to face them.
His hand comes up to grab onto the apple, snapping off a bite and sucking away the juice as he takes it away from his mouth, “Hey Stevie, Birdie,” he says over a mouthful of crunching fruit.
Steve blinks once, then turns to Robin, “I’m not going to survive 'till tomorrow.”
Before she or Eddie can react, Steve is striding across the room and pulling his sodden friend to him in a tart, apple-flavored kiss.
Robin says something about being lookout, but Steve’s too busy feeling Eddie’s mouth on his.
Until Eddie pulls back that is.
“Shit– Eddie, I’m so sorry, I—” Steve stops when Eddie’s finger comes up between them.
Eddie chews once, twice, a third, then swallows down the rest of his bite.
Ah.
“Okay,” Eddie breathes once his mouth is clear. “Now, where were we?” He tosses the apple over his shoulder and descends upon Steve once again.

If You're Not Into It, Just Say The Word by lemmerman
Rating: Explicit Relationships: Steve Harrington/Eddie Munson, Eddie Munson/Gator Tillman Additional Tags: Sexual Roleplay, Handcuffs, Blow Jobs, Praise Kink, Daddy Issues, Explicit Sexual Content, Implied Consent, Sexual Fantasy, Internalized Homophobia
Summary:
When Eddie comes home to find a familiar piece of paper at the bottom of the stairs, he knows he’s in for a surprise in the bedroom. What awaits him instead of his boyfriend Steve however, is a mysterious stranger who looks just like him but claims to be Gator Tillman, a deputy from North Dakota who wants to arrest Eddie for deviant behaviours. But maybe, if Eddie plays his cards right, he can use those deviant behaviours he’s so famous for to get himself out of jail free, and get himself off at the same time.
Short little blurb under the cut!
the space around us
steddie | 370 words | G
for @steddie-spooktober week 1 prompt cozy
Eddie looks comfortable.
No, he looks… Well, no, comfortable is accurate.. so is cozy, and content and… settled.
Eddie looks settled
It's been a while now since he’s shared Steve’s space, shared this room with him. put up posters and scattered his notebooks and cigarettes and lighters across every surface.
There's a matchbook under the bed that’s been there for months now, just out of eyeline if you’re looking for it from atop the mattress.
There's a pile of vinyls stacked next to the rickety shelf Eddie insists will last a while longer, even with the giant record player carefully balanced on top of it.
And not just the bedroom, but the rest of the apartment too; the kitchen sink has dirty dishes in it that Eddie says 'just need to soak’, there’s a mismatched set of towels over the bar in the bathroom, a pair of boxers behind the door that he never finds when it's time for laundry, an obnoxiously floral-printed couch and well-worn leather armchair that have moved from curb to living room..
He’s spread out over this space they share, making it feel almost as alive as when Robin lived there with Steve, back before she’d moved in with her girlfriend Chrissy.
But, Steve thinks, Maybe cozy is the better word for how Eddie looks in this moment.
Settled low against the headboard, a mountain of pillows behind his back and shoulders, the warm glow of the lamp on the nightstand draped over him as his chin dips to his chest and book gets dangerously close to falling from his fingers entirely.
It’s the third time he’s done it now, and if what he’s witnessed over Eddie's time here, it’ll be the last.
Steve sweeps closer, silent as ever, and nudges the book just the inch in towards the wall it needs to not crash onto the floor when Eddie loses his grip on it entirely.
He leans in and touches his lips to Eddie's temple, whispering a goodnight he isn’t sure the other man hears.
Then, like every other night Eddie falls asleep in this room, he straightens, flicks a finger at the sparkling cloud hanging over the lampshade, and blinks away with the light.
ehehehe did anyone expect ghost!steve??
in my head steve both knows and doesn't know he's dead, hence the 'robin moving out' part even though it was more a necessity than a choice after steve died; and also in my head this is a modern au and eddie's from our time/later and steve's been alone in the apartment a while, not really bothering with knowing/being around any of the previous residents

sun-kissed | for @steddiemicrofic june prompt hot AND @steddie-spooktober summerween pop-up prompts pines and trickster
pairing: steddie (duh) | word count: 315 | rated: G | on AO3
In the end, it took practically nothing at all for Steve to lean forward.
It’d been a perfect day so far. 85 and sunny, a light breeze that pushed through the pines behind the Harrington home, the faint smell of coconut in their sunscreen, the hiss of pop cans and the sizzle of hot dogs on the grill.
Now, after the kids had gone and with Robin upstairs in the shower, Steve takes the time to clean up the few dishes they’d used, then leans his weight forward on the island, letting the A/C settle against his sun-warmed skin.
Eddie was sitting across from him, sunburnt and hair wild from the mix of sun, sweat, and chlorine the group’s day in Steve’s pool, going on and on about some new big bad he was crafting up for one of his games.
“A trickster, Steve! It’d be perfect; I could to do whatever I wanted to to fuck with them, and it’s part of the lore!”
He was grinning wide, nearly as bright as the sun had been earlier that day.
And that’s all it took.
Steve leaned forward, and kissed his friend mid-sentence.
Eddie’s lips are chapped, his cheek hot under Steve’s palm, and instead of panicking about what is happening, instead of thinking about how Eddie really should be drinking water right now instead of another pop so his lips will be less chapped next time, and that he should probably run upstairs for the aloe instead of making it sting worse with his touch, Steve just… keeps kissing him.
Eddie takes the half second Steve had reserved for the thoughts he wasn’t having to get with the program, shooting his own hands forward and holding Steve’s own sun-warmed face in his hands.
After another long moment, Steve pulls back, leans onto the counter on his elbows again, and says, “So, a trickster, huh?”
it's been so long since i wrote any steddie so i figured the microfic length would help!! 😅 hope you enjoyed this little thing!

@steddie-spooktober day 9: werewolf | T | wc: 1,735
🐺🌕🐾🐺🌕🐾
“I need a werewolf to take one look at me and go “I’ll have that” then claim me as their mate and never let me go.” Eddie says out of the blue.
The soda Steve was drinking stings the back of his nose as it attempts to avoid ending up in his gullet, and Robin automatically starts to pat his back sympathetically as he continues to splutter
The older teens are all over, just a normal kickback type thing after the kids had all been ferried out of Steve’s pool and over to the Wheelers’ armpit of a basement for the night. He and Robin are replenishing their snacks in the kitchen and Steve had been attempting to polish off his current can before grabbing another when Eddie’d said that. Stupid enhanced hearing.
And Robin didn’t even hear it; To her, it must’ve just seemed like Steve’s soda went down the wrong pipe or something.
The conversation in the other room continues on while he struggles to breathe. “Okay…do I even want to know?” Nancy asks, her voice tinged with disgust.
“You never read fanfiction, Nance?”
“No, can’t say I have.”
“Well I have, and having a hairy werewolf hottie decide you’re the one he wants? Swoon.”
“Is that a thing?”
“Everything is someone’s thing, man.” Argyle drawls out.
“Why?” Nancy again.
“‘Cause humans are weird.”
“No, no, I mean why werewolf?”
Steve tunes out Eddie’s response when Robin speaks beside him; “You okay, Dingus?”
@steddie-spooktober day 7: skeleton | G | wc: 641
“You said it’s in your closet?”
“Yeah!” Eddie calls back from the living room. “It should be on the…left? Side?”
“‘Kay!” Steve yells back.
He’s been over helping Eddie pack up his things from the trailer. It’s October already and the fall semester has started for Robin up in Chicago; now that Steve knows the shitheads are set for the new school year, Mike being the first of the group to get his licence (AND was willing to be taught by Steve so he at least knows Mike will be (somewhat) safe) to cart them all around in the Wheelers’ station wagon… he’s following her there officially.
Eddie is too, decided to tag along and “Get out of what’s left of Wayne’s hair.” as he put it.
So here they are, packing up Eddie’s things and shuttling some of Wayne’s back into the single bedroom of the trailer.
“Green suitcase, green suitcase,” Steve mutters to himself, a reminder of what he needs to be looking for in the bedroom closet.
As soon as he reaches the bedroom door, he hears the front one creak open, Eddie greeting Wayne with a “Careful old man, I can’t afford a hip replacement if you trip over my crap.”
Wayne’s soft snort of laughter is drowned out by the squeal of the metal-on-metal of Eddie’s closet door, and the loud “JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!” Steve let out at the sight before him.
Clutching his chest where his heart is hammering him to death from within, Steve looks up at the, what he can now tell is completely fake, skeleton hanging from the bar inside the closet.
“Steve! What the hell are you screaming abou— Ha! Wayne~!” he calls over his shoulder, “You got Steve!”
“Damn..” Steve hears Wayne mutter before yelling back, “Well if you’re gonna keep datin’ him, he better start learning our traditions.”
Steve freezes.
Eddie freezes (halfway back out of the closet with the skeleton dangling from his hand).
‘Am I that obvious?’ they each think to themselves.
Another beat passes, and Steve is the one to reply, “Not fair Wayne, The next time you get a scare like that, we’ll be putting you in an early grave!”
Wayne barks out a laugh, and goes back to whatever clinking around with his mug he was doing before.
Steve watches Eddie’s face fill with color. His heart is still beating a little too fast. “Listen, Eddie–”
“Good one Steve-o,” Eddie says, hurriedly, tossing the plastic skeleton back onto the now bare mattress before going back in for the suitcase, “Old man jokes will always land in this house.”
“Eddie, listen,”
“No need, Harrington, It was just an old man joke. Ha! See? Still funny.” Eddie’s face is almost purple.
“I’d love to date you, Eddie.” Steve says to the back of Eddie’s head, plain and simple. “This isn’t exactly how I wanted to break the news to you that I did but uh.. Yeah.”
Eddie finally turns back around, confusion almost dripping off his face. “You, Steve Harrington, want to date me. As in me, Eddie Munson, flunkie dealer trailer trash?”
“No, I want to date Eddie Munson, hot piece of ass metalhead with a big heart.”
Eddie drops the suitcase and pinches the exposed skin of his other arm. Hard.
“That… had to hurt.”
“It did, yeah.”
He drops his arm, continuing to stare at Steve like he was some sort of creature in a tank.
“You gonna say anything or am I gonna have to guess? ‘Cause let me tell you, man, I don’t have that great of a track record with things like th—”
Eddie finally puts Steve out of his misery and cuts off his rambling. “Don’t call me ‘man’ when I’m about to kiss you stupid.”
Steve blinks, “Okay.”
That plastic skeleton is known as Wingman from then on.

you | for @steddiemicrofic January prompt new
pairing: steddie (duh) | word count: 517 | rated: M | on AO3
The next morning, Steve finds himself awake much earlier than he would’ve liked; the light of the new day filtering through the blinds is still tinged with early morning darkness.
For a moment he just breathes it in.
Only a handful of hours before, he was alone.
Only a handful of hours before, he was convinced that the thing he wanted most in this world would always be an impossibility.
Now though, these wholly insignificant amount of hours later, he feels a shift in gravity beneath him, the warm body beside him pushing up to turn over.
“Sorry,” he whispers, “Did I wake you?”
Eddie blinks blearily over at him; his brow is scrunched in confusion, like he’s not quite sure how he got here.
“You okay, Ed?”
Eddie grunts, letting his weight fall unceremoniously onto Steve’s chest. “Mrmph.”
Steve chuckles, and Eddie shifts again, tilting his head up to poke his chin into the meat of Steve’s chest instead of his nose. “You’re thinking too hard.”
“Hmm.” he hums, snaking an arm out from under his boyf– lov– frien— out from under Eddie and over the soft planes of his back. “Go back to sleep, Teddy.”
Eddie’s nose smushes into his pec once again, and Steve can’t help but laugh, his chest causing Eddie to bounce slightly.
“Mmrughph!” he complains, louder this time, flopping an arm over him and pressing down slightly to stop him moving, “Tryin’ t’sleep, here.”
“Sorry, sorry.” Steve chuckles, squeezing Eddie tight to him. He shifts, and Eddie presses himself the rest of the way to him, his leg hooking over one of Steve’s and settling between them.
Eddie soon goes boneless again, Steve feeling each point of him as it gets heavier with sleep.
He lies there, with Eddie in his arms, and thinks.
Thinks about how they would never have been here now if not for Eddie’s penchant for popping up at Steve’s house randomly. That if he’d had anything else to do tonight, he wouldn’t’ve waltzed in just after dinner. That if Steve had any better hearing than he does, Eddie wouldn’t’ve walked straight into Steve’s room mid-jerk.
The utter horror of being walked in on (by his newfound crush no less), did absolutely nothing to quell the heat blazing through him, nor did it deter Eddie from recovering quickly enough to shut the door, lock it behind him, and climb onto the bed between Steve’s legs.
“This all for me, big boy?” He’d asked, voice low and eyes dark.
And for some reason, all Steve could do was laugh.
Laugh at being caught, laugh at Eddie’s complete acceptance of what was happening, laugh at his complete lack of hesitation.
Steve laughed, Eddie’s face started to shift from sultry to panicked, and Steve had sat forward and pulled Eddie to him, kissing him soundly.
They’d moved against each other for hours; kissing, grinding, coming, laughing some more.. It was the least scary a new thing had ever been.
Eddie shifts beside him again, “Whatcha thinkin’ ‘bout?” his leg hitches higher, feeling the effects of Steve’s reminiscing.
Steve smiles, “You.”
