#Hop definitely arrested Eddie or lectured him in the past for his shenanigans but Eddie doesn't care

[missingexaltation]

Hopper being harsher on Eddie than any of the others post-Vecna because..."hell the kid's a drug dealer Joyce, and he's always around our kids."

The others run rampant, kids and older teens alike, but the second Munson is out of his sight, Hopper gets all itchy and concerned. It's his cop mode, he can't just switch it off around people he knows are bad for his family. He's being cautious.

So he thinks nothing of it when they're all around for a movie night, and Munson's disappeared. Hopper finds him outside, round the back of the house. But he's not smoking pot or snorting cocaine or breaking into anyone's car or anything.

He's got his tongue down the Harrington kid's throat.

The Harrington kid that Hopper hadn't even noticed was also missing from movie night. Because he's a good kid.

And Hopper backs the hell up and retreats back into the house, hopefully before he's noticed. But Eddie definitely saw him, and finds it hilarious.

#wish we'd seen some Hopper and Eddie dynamics tbf #neither are perfect and you just KNOW Eddie would wind him up the wrong way #Hop definitely arrested Eddie or lectured him in the past for his shenanigans but Eddie doesn't care #just like 'i know that boys up to no good' then BAM...it's the queer kids #and he can't say anything because he knows Will is probably gay too...so his reaction to steddie is panicked #'Well Joyce...you were right...it's not drugs that Munson's doing' #eddie munson #steve harrington #jim hopper #steddie #stranger things
