Another WIP that ibis is refusing to let me work on ¬_¬

Karma deserves a nice and friendly bestie and Kenji is the perfect candidate. Some sunshine for the traumatized boy ´꒳`

[liightsnow]

I can’t believe one of the plot points in Hannibal was that he couldn’t get Will pregnant so he baby trapped him with a teenager? I feel like he could have asked him to dinner before he tried all that.

[liightsnow]

how many times did Will fantasize about getting pushed against this ladder for him to have a visceral reaction to Hannibal cornering him like this? slut, whore, harlot.

[liightsnow]

When Eddie comes out to him, Steve makes a big mistake. His first reaction was to thank him for trusting him, which is what Robin told him to do in this situation.

But his second reaction was to say “I also like guys.”

Eddie blinked at him, clearly confused and defensive, like maybe Steve was making fun or not taking him seriously.

“Uh. You do?”

“Yeah man! I mean, no one else knows, but yeah.”

Eddie smiled and thanked him for trusting him with it, said they should hang out more, and recommended a queer bar in Indy if he needed a safe place to explore.

And Steve smiled and nodded like he couldn’t agree more.

As soon as Eddie was gone, he rushed to the phone in his kitchen and called Robin.

She called him an idiot, a dingus, a bisexual disaster —whatever that was—, and told him he absolutely wasn’t allowed to go to a queer bar without her.

She did at least agree to keep up the lie until he could find a way out of it without Eddie thinking he lied to hurt him or something.

But he started hanging out a lot more with Eddie and finding that they had more in common than he originally thought.

Eddie took Robin and Steve to the queer club and Steve…felt at home, felt welcomed, felt like he belonged. Robin kept giving him these looks all night, and Eddie kept dragging him to meet people who he cared about, and one of the guys on the dance floor kept pulling him out there to dance with him.

He felt free and alive and-

Queer.

It hit him as the guy, Paul maybe, was pulling him closer by his waist as his hips rocked to the beat of a song he didn’t recognize but felt like something he wanted on a mixtape. It hit him that he liked this because he liked dancing with Paul like this. He liked this because he saw himself visiting more, even without Eddie and Robin. He liked this because he could picture making out with Eddie in the bathroom.

He froze.

“You okay, sweet thing?” Paul asked him.

“I think I’m in love with my friend.”

Paul’s eyes widened momentarily before patting Steve’s hip. “Is he gay, honey?”

“Huh?” Steve was already trying to find Eddie in the crowd. “Oh, yeah. He’s here tonight.”

“Shouldn’t you be dancin’ with him then?”

Steve finally looked back at Paul, who had his hands on his own hips now, teasing smile on his face.

“Yeah. I should,” Steve thanked him, apologized for any misleading, which was immediately brushed off. Paul was here to dance, he didn’t much care for who he was dancing with.

“Send that beauty over here. She looks like she needs some lessons,” Paul pointed to Robin, who was still looking a little nervous despite the friendly bartender handing her sodas every time he passed by her.

“She’s gay, man.”

“So am I! Doesn’t mean we can’t dance!”

Steve laughed. “You’re right.”

He walked over to Robin quickly, avoided getting pulled back into the crowd.

“I’m in love with Eddie.”

Robin rolled her eyes. “I know, dingus. You literally risked your entire reputation to come to a queer bar to try to impress him.”

Steve balked. “That’s not what this was!”

“Uh huh. Well he’s sulking in the bathroom if you wanna go tell him.”

“Sulking? Why?”

“He saw you dancing with that guy. Think he assumed you were interested in him.”

“Not a chance. I prefer long hair and ripped jeans,” Steve winked. He turned to walk towards the hall with the bathrooms when Robin stopped him.

“Don’t do this if you’re not 100% sure,” she said seriously. “Eddie really likes you and it would destroy him if you were lying to make him feel better.”

“I wouldn’t do that,” Steve started, but stopped when Robin gave him a look.

“You’ve literally been pretending to be queer for the last two months because he came out to you and you accidentally came out to him. You’re lucky it wasn’t a complete lie.”

“Yeah but I wouldn’t fuck with his feelings like that.” Steve knew what it was like to be led on. He wouldn’t do that to Eddie. “I’ll be careful with him.”

“And be careful with you.”

He saluted her as he walked away.

When he found Eddie sitting on the counter at the sink in the bathroom, he was swinging his legs back and forth and humming something distinctly less pop than what was playing on the dance floor. No one else was in here, but that didn’t mean no one would walk in.

He walked over to Eddie and placed a hand on his knee.

Eddie immediately stopped kicking his feet and looked up.

“What’s with the face?” Steve asked, reaching up to touch the line between his brows that always appeared when he was pouting.

Eddie shrugged. “Just not feeling it tonight I guess.”

“The music isn’t really your thing. Kinda surprised you like this place,” Steve said as his hand drifted down to his wrist. “Seems closer to a small club than a bar.”

“You seemed to be enjoying yourself.”

Eddie’s tone was sharp, laced with jealousy. Even if Steve hadn’t had his realization five minutes earlier, he would’ve seen what that was from a mile away.

“I was until I realized I’d rather be out there with you.”

Eddie snorted. “I don’t really dance.”

“But you’d dance with me if I asked, right?” Steve’s fingers circled his wrist and he tugged Eddie off the counter. “Even if I asked you to do it right here with no music?”

“Steve, what are you doing?”

“Dancing. Or trying to.” Steve rested his hands on Eddie’s hips and started swaying them in sync with his. “It is hard without music.”

“Why don’t you go back out there?” Eddie’s hands went around Steve’s neck.

“Because you’re not out there. I don’t wanna be where you aren’t.”

“Steve-“

“You know I didn’t actually know I liked guys until tonight?” Steve huffed out a laugh. “Well, I really like this one guy. Not sure about others yet.”

Eddie was silent, but didn’t push Steve away.

“He was hiding in this bathroom though. I didn’t really think he’d join me out there, so I brought the dancing to him,” Steve winked.

“You like me? You? Like me?”

Steve nodded.

“And you just realized this?”

“Kinda.”

“In a queer bar?”

“Mhm.”

“That’s pretty gay, dude.”

Steve snorted and smacked Eddie’s chest. “That’s the point.”

Eddie moved in impossibly closer, no room for Jesus between their chests anymore. “So you lied when you came out to me?”

“I panicked! But it doesn’t actually count as a lie if I’ve seen the light.”

“Was it a rainbow light? Or the reflection of the disco ball in the glitter shorts Perry was wearing?” Eddie joked.

“Perry!” Steve smacked his own forehead. “He’s nice. Made me come tell you how I feel.”

“Oh. He did?” Eddie seemed shy for maybe the first time ever.

“Yeah. Said I should come dance with you if I’m in love with you.”

Steve hadn’t felt like this in a while, and hadn’t left his heart on his sleeve like this in even longer. As Eddie’s face went from shy to shocked to flustered, Steve thought about how long he’d been dancing around these feelings.

But no more dancing around them. Now it was time to dance with them.

“Can’t believe you just said you’re in love with me in the bathroom of a queer bar. Don’t even think they clean this place,” Eddie laughed, letting his forehead fall against Steve’s.

“I’ll tell you again outside.” Steve kissed his cheek. “And in the van.” His nose. “Your house, my house.” The corner of his mouth. “Everywhere.”

Eddie licked his lip, skipping over a soft kiss for a hungry one. It was hot, desperate, impatient. Everything Steve hadn’t known he needed.

Then again, he hadn’t even actually known he liked guys until tonight. Maybe he was just late to learn things about himself.

[liightsnow]

okay but has anyone written a no upside down au fic where big ol doe eyed Eddie Munson takes his first 'intentionally going for the gay scene' trip to Indy, totally inexperienced and deeply unaware of how attractive he is being hit on from everyone with working eyes until he's saved by--

Steve Harrington?!

[liightsnow]

You're telling me we've got a character called Steve in a time were Stevie Nicks would've been on the radio a lot and I'm just what? Supposed to not make her genderfluid? Stevie is a baby girl and we love them.

[liightsnow]

it makes so much sense to me that if steve is genderfluid then robin is too. this is probably dumb, but makes perfect sense to me

[liightsnow]

It's the hottest day of summer, and the air conditioner in Family Video is broken. Steve and Robin have their cheeks pressed to the counter.

"Robin, I'm feeling a bit girly today. Can I borrow your gender?" Steve muttered.

"Only if I can borrow yours," Robin muttered sleepily.

"Done."

"Do you guys do this a lot?" Eddie asked in amusement.

"Sometimes," Steve replied.

"I fucking love you guys," Eddie snorted. "I'm going to make you guys special pins."

"Hey, Eddie?" Steve asked.

"Yeah?"

"Are you a hallucination?" Steve asked.

"No?"

"Then why, in God's name, are you STILL WEARING SO MANY LAYERS?!" Robin shrieked.

Steve and Robin had shredded their clothing to the point that they no longer looked presentable. They had turned their pants into shorts, lost their tops, and buttoned up their work vests so they weren't flashing everyone. It's not like there was anyone to flash. Meanwhile, Eddie was wearing his usual crazy amount of clothing.

"Yeah, you're making me hot," Steve muttered.

"Oh, I am?"

"Steve," Robin whined. "Lift my arm and hit him with my hand."

"I would if I could lift my own hand," Steve sighed. "I can't breathe."

The door opened, and Keith walked in.

"What the hell are you guys still here for?" Keith asked.

"Huh?" They asked, peeling their cheeks off the counter.

"I told you guys that since the air conditioner was broken that you didn't need to be here. No one is coming in due to the heatwave anyway. I did tell you, didn't I?" Keith asked.

"No!"

"Pool?"

"Pool."

Eddie followed them back to Steve’s house and watched in amusement as they headed straight for the pool, stripping off their vests.

"I'm going to beat you there, Rob Harrington!"

"Not if I beat you first, Stephanie Buckley!"

"You guys switch last names, too?" Eddie asked in amusement.

"Duh!" They exclaimed as they threw themselves into the pool.

Rob spat water out of his mouth like he was a fountain. Meanwhile, Stephanie was wagging her eyebrows at Eddie, begging him to join her. Eddie shrugged before stripping down to his underwear and jumped into the pool. He was grateful they let him get a glimpse of their wonderfully weird platonic relationship. As he gazed at Stephanie through the haze of romantic interest (yeah, definitely romantic), he hoped they would let him stay.

"Hey, asshole! If you want to lust after my best friend, her tits are down there!"

Eddie glared. If it hadn't been for the heat that got to them, Eddie definitely would have disposed of Rob. Plus, Stephanie wouldn't have approved.

[liightsnow]

eddie would come out to steve as trans after months of being his friend and have to explain what it meant and steves response would be "doesnt everyone feel like the other gender sometimes tho?"

eddies internal monologue like "ik what u are steve harrington"

[liightsnow]

Argyle: bro you didn't tell me Nancys ex was a girl.

Jonathan, looking over at Steve: He's... not? Dude, Steve's a guy

Argyle: I called her a girl to her face and she didn't correct me. That's a girl.

Jonathan: Dude I think you're just stoned

Meanwhile, Stevies been having a fem day. So when Argyle correctly gendered her she just went with it- because holy shit the gender euphoria.

[liightsnow]

AU where both Max and Steve are genderfluid and have a strong sibling dynamic because they bonded over being genderfluid without even knowing the word. Robin’s the one who eventually tells them it’s called genderfluid when Steve confessed to her after she confesses being a lesbian. The first time Eddie accidentally shows up during a girls night, his brain short circuits for a moment because Steve Harrington has sparkly purple nail polish and a pink frilly skirt with an oversized white sweater and he though Steve was a cishet man and that brings a whole lot of new possibilities to the table because Steve is definitely not cis so there’s a possibility he’s not straight and what if…

Max, after Steve and Robin, tells Lucas first. He’s confused at first but he’s so supportive and he tries to include Max in with the rest of his friends when they’re doing activities that would be concerned more boyish. He tries teaching her basketball but instead learns to skateboard with him because he can tell they don’t enjoy it like he does (they both still play basketball sometimes though). Max shows up one day with his hair braided like a crown one day, courtesy of Steve, because he didn’t like how long it was that day and Lucas says he likes it up like that.

One day everyone’s over at the Byers house having just a fun hang out day (because sometime they just all needs to be together and make sure they’re all safe). Steve, Eddie, and Robin haven’t shown up yet, but the rest of the party is there. Max has on a blue bracelet but that’s not an odd sight at all. What gets them is Lucas using he/him pronouns when talking about Max. The younger party was going to question it, but Steve walks in and Steve wearing a a skirt is much more of a pressing matter for them. Lucas takes one look at Steve and the pink bracelet she’s wearing that he knows Max made, looks over at Max who nods slightly, and he just nods back. Erica does not care, though she does wonder if that’s why Steve was so willing to play dolls with her when Steve used to babysit. Nancy is simply smart and hangs out with Robin too much to not just already know what’s going on, even if she doesn’t exactly know the word for it. Argyle is just Argyle, he knows and doesn’t give a shit and just says “That’s a pretty skirt my gal” and goes back to whatever he was going. And Steve looks so nervous suddenly because Dustin is yelling and Mike looks actually kind of disgusted and Will and El and Jonathan just look sort of confused and Hopper and Joyce aren’t even in the room, they’re in the kitchen, so she can’t immediately see their reaction. Robin, Eddie, and Max are quick to plant themselves between Steve and the rest of the household, Eddie getting Dustin to shut up for two second while Robin and Max are glaring at Mike who actually takes a step back. The commotion fully stops when Hopper comes in yelling asking what’s going on. He doesn’t see the skirt since Eddie and Robin are in the way, but Joyce does along with how scared Steve looks. They lock eyes for a moment when the room is completely silent and Joyce can see she’s two seconds from a panic attack. That snaps her into her mama bear mode and she’s instantly tells everyone to sit down and points towards the small group and says they get the couch. She looks over at Hopper and goes “Shut it” because she already knew he was about to ask what the hell Steve was wearing and that was the exact wrong thing to do. He stammers a little in defensive before she shuts him up with a glare. She turns back and makes sure everyone is paying attention and says, “This house is a safe space for everybody. If Steve wants to wear a skirt, he can wear a skirt. You can have a chat with me if you don’t like it.”

Steve fidgets with the edge of her skirt before Robin takes it as she clears her throat and croaks out, “Stevie.”

He can see the confusion but Max jumps in and clarifies with, “She prefers Stevie.” She addressed it to Joyce but goes right back to glaring at Mike because she still hated the face he had pulled. He looks mildly terrified now and Max thinks that’s a better look.

Nancy and Jonathan just nod, Jonathan now knowing because he and Argyle had a gender talk when they realized they were non-binary. Though Stevie isn’t looking up from her hands Joyce gives a look that all the Hopper-Byers know means she’s proud. Hopper still looks like he’s not processing a thing. Dustin pipes up, “Did you and Max swap genders or something?” Eddie facepalms with an audible smack, Max roles his eyes, and Robin and Stevie both smile a little because Robin has jokingly made that comment before. And Stevie and Max just share a look and both explain that, no, their genderfluid, meaning they’re sometimes a guy and sometimes an girl and sometimes something in between. And they’re both a little shocked when Jonathan of all people explains that the something in between is called non-binary and something visibly clicks with Dustin because his eyes widen and they say “I thought I only felt like that” and Eddie kind of feels terrible because he wishes he could have helped Dustin sooner.

And when all of this is said and done and El asks if she can paint Stevie’s nails at some point and Hopper is still kind of confused but gives his full support and Eddie pulls Will into a conversation about being gay because Will looked so hopeful that he wasn’t alone and Mike explains that no he wasn’t disgusted, that’s just his natural confused face and Max finally eases up but still shoots him a glare or two for scaring Stevie, Joyce pulls Stevie aside and hugs her. “You are so strong sweetie, thank you for telling us.” Stevie doesn’t sob but there are suddenly tears because her mother never hugged her or told her she was proud, and she’d actually probably hate her if she found out about this, and Joyce goes to grab some tissues and her eye liner because she didn’t notice Stevie was wearing it before but now it’s running down her face.

El goes up to Max hugs him and asks if that means she’s the only girl left in the party of boys and Max laughs but explains that yes, but only for days he wears a blue or green bracelet. El smiles and says, “I still want to be your friend, no matter what gender you are.” Max nods and tried to act like that doesn’t mean a lot to him. Then El says they should give Mike a makeover for scaring Stevie and they both laugh and Max let’s their hair down and swaps their blue bracelet for their green one and they both go back to El’s room to grab some nail polish and scrunchies.

(In the end, Max and Steve are genderfluid, Jonathan and Dustin are non-binary, El and Robin are both bigender (she/they), and Eddie is trans (ftm). Everyone is super supportive and loves them all very much.)

The idea that people in Yokohama know to not make kenjI upset means that it has happened in the past- most likely when he first joined the agency..

All I want to know is who and how, it was most likely a mafia member bc I can't see Kenji going crazy on a random criminal or civilian.

The funniest answer is Mori himself and until I get answers I am going to say it was Mori. Because the idea of him getting his ass handed to him by an angry, feral child is always funny.
