Misha, your realm is literally a safe haven for Steve Harrington x fem!reader ships 🚢 not to be dramatic, but like…
Steve x Babe Bauman = the most beautifully written, angstiest ever enemies-to-lovers pair with a juicy backstory that is literal screenwriting-level perfection in terms of having solid backbone and actual cause for the heated rivalry. Like, the Duffer Brothers mega missed the boat on this like wtf?? some of gotta tell ‘em.
“Oh So We Do Love Steve” is the goat 🐐
Steve x Hopper daughter = HOTTEST FWB TO LOVERS EVER. Sheeeeeezus, this was a ride. Like the fat that they get the best fairytale ending ever after four years of not telling a soul about what they had going on that entire time?? Her grief about losing her dad, the physical injury she suffers from turned miraculous recovery because of STEVE’S DAD?? WHO’S NOT JUST A RICH ASSHOLE?? 😭 the way Steve calls her Hoppette?? 10/10 needs to be a movie.
“Tell Me What You Need” made me mad that Jim Hopper never had an older daughter in the canon ST series. 💞
Steve x Ren = the most devastating, poetically written pair in ST AU fanfic history. Like I mean it. The way that he’s so cynical and jaded, suffering from serve trauma and PTSD and is like guarded to a fault, while she’s just the most angelic human being? Daughter of a baker? Cinderella girl turned survivor? Forgiving to no end, even when the person doesn’t deserve it?? How she loves her brother no matter how much he resents her? How she is so loyal to Steve, but never told him that she’s in love with him until TELLING THE ENTIRE NATION before she’s throwing into the Hunger Games with him… so that people will sponsor him and help him to survive? 💔💔
“I See Fire” is the only so-called ‘rewrite/remake’ that the whole entire THG series should be given, and it’s because it’s brilliantly customized to include other universes like ST and the Purge. I’m shook.
Steve x Nicole!reader = genius rewriting of an existing character that barely got screen time in the canon show. Like what the hell?! SO GOOD? Making her and Steve childhood best friends and having it carry all throughout the show… I really can’t wait to see where else the story goes because it makes me rewatch season one and see it completely different.
“You’ve Always Been There” is clever fanfic writing big time and very underrated.
• I know you’re still working on “At the Château” along with the “Manny Steve” series, but just know? I’m hooked. Subscribed. Enrolled. Permanently stuck in your sphere.
Love, Jules
