More Steve Henderson AU!! I love love love your idea behind how Dustin and Steve end up so close--it's so fitting for what glimpses of Dustin and Claudia we get in the show

sngdjysynsnysngzngsmh thank youuuuuu i really really appreciate it!! your encouragement means the absolute world to me 🕺✨

anyway we finally started writing scenes today!! with dialogue and everything!! woohoo! this snippet is part of a missing scene after the tunnels in season 2

“Yeah, so lets get his car back before he wakes up and he won't notice it was ever gone” Mike interrupted, slinging the passenger door open. Max glared at him. “He’s going to notice. He notices everything with his car.” “And there's mud all over the sides” “And there's definitely going to be mud inside after we ride back” “And its pretty safe to say at least some of Steve's blood got on the backseat” Oh God they're screwed.

#turns out I'm secretly worse at writing descriptions than i thought #its like i know what happens and if this were a screenplay i could totally leave notes on all the little details #but this is not a screenplay and i have to filter what i add and what i leave for the reader to imagine #devon's steve henderson au #steve henderson au rambles #im really enjoying trying to translate how the kids act on-screen onto the page #like lucas has this mature-for-his-age 'just use common sense' way of speaking. more sure of himself than in later seasons #mikes got that almost whiny 'why won't you just listen to me' energy to his voice especially when hes voicing his ideas #dustins the most fun bc he goes from unnecessarily wordy in an effort to sound cool to very gentle and clear when steve wakes up in the car #max is also cool because throughout the episode its like shes going back and forth between opening up and closing off #shes usually pretty short with her words until she gets comfortable and then she adds emphasis to words with this look of amused disbelief #sgnsjgskg also this is for wip wednesday. i forgot to clarify earlier. oops
