Give my body shelter,
Cover me with all of you,
Take me as you please,
I surrender my heart unto you,
I can't hide these inexplicable feelings,
That you have ingrained into my soul,
My thoughts are lost in you,
The incessant need to feel you in me,
To hear your voice call out my name,
Claiming me as your harbour,
The one that guides you out of the darkness,
And into my light,
Bringing you back home to me...

“You here for Max?” 
Billy stopped about a foot from the passenger side window, close enough for Steve to catch a whiff of smoke, sharp mint, and some cologne Billy must’ve just applied for how strong it was. Cinnamon tones burned in Steve’s airways. He stole a glance at the open V of his shirt, telling himself it was a hunt for Starcourt scars. 
“How the fuck aren’t you freezing your ass off?” Steve shook his head in mock disapproval. "In case you didn’t get the memo, it’s February. And yeah, yeah I’m here for Max.”
Billy tilted his head to one side, and Steve could almost feel hot steam on his neck from the showers in Hawkins high, almost. It wasn’t quite the same. Billy sized up an opponent back then, an enemy, tried to draw out the infamous King Steve just to flaunt his superiority; now Billy just looked...tired. Apathetic underneath that killer grin. “Don’t worry your pretty little head about my ass.”
That brought a humorless smile to Steve’s lips. Rebellious and unable to resist what he called the “fuck it” impulse, he dropped his gaze to view said ass, every bit of its hard-earned curve. Steve used Ted Wheeler as inspiration for how impressed to be. “Whatever, Hargrove.”
That, surprisingly, earned a chuckle from Billy. Like he didn’t expect Steve to do it. “Cassidy.”
“What?”
Billy blew a steady stream of smoke away from his car, waited for it to fade, then shrugged. Steve thought it looked a hair too casual for someone who didn’t give a fuck. “Trying something out.”
“Oh.” Silence carried on for about four seconds (subjective four minutes) and Steve’s stomach twisted, adding nerves to a cocktail of uncertainty. He felt awkward knowing it must be his mother’s name, the one who left him all those years ago in Sunny California. “Yeah. I—it uh, suits you.”
Billy grinned with his teeth. That was more like him, inching dangerously close to the asshole from senior year and every bit as suave, but the tell—Steve noticed up close—was in his eyes. So blue now. Empty of that visceral, nameless thing that used to fog them up like storm clouds. Empty of a lot of things. 
A shell, he realized.
“Liar.”
He was right.
Billy Cassidy sounded all kinds of strange to Steve, like ill-fitting clothes or stiff shoes. Not like Steve didn’t get distancing himself from ‘Hargrove,’ though - everyone in Hawkins heard about how Neil dealt with the massive Starcourt shitshow of ’85.
It was kind of messed up, honestly. Billy had still been in the coma when the government showed up and Neil fucked off like a bat out of hell - ‘like Billy’s mother did’, Steve overheard someone say. At the local supermarket. 
Small towns, man. Small fucking towns.
There were other rumors, too. Darker ones made of human monsters and fake smiles, but Steve had no clue whether those were true. He felt guilty for even listening in the first place, because they weren’t the kind of stories he could (or wanted to) confirm. Only one thing was sure. Hargrove or Cassidy, it didn’t matter: Billy would resent any pity Steve showed him. So he swallowed it down.
“You could grow into it,” Steve offered instead. 
“That’s the idea.”
A pause. Then, since Steve felt like pushing it today—“So, you really staying in Hawkins? Thought you’d be halfway to California the minute your car was up and running.”
Billy cocked a brow. Steve noticed a small slit in the arch of it, unable to discern if it was style or something that used to bleed. “Hawkins is the shit hole of shit holes, but lucky for the shit hole, I’m staying a while. Not like my baby won’t get a taste of California streets again soon.” He took a leisurely drag. “Why? Hoping I’d get out of your hair?”
“Doesn’t everyone?”
Billy chuckled, but the sound was different than before. Like nails scraping pavement. “Precious, coming from the guy who visited daily when I was out cold.” The emptiness in Billy’s gaze didn’t disappear, still swallowed up any spark of life, but he continued to sound more like his dickish self with every sentence. A pink tongue poked out from between his teeth. “According to Max, that is. I’m touched. Really.”
Steve groaned as his cheeks warmed. Wished he could smack his forehead against something hard. Max Mayfield was a traitor. “Yeah, don’t get too excited. Your sister needed someone there in case you, I don’t know, tried to fucking stab her with another broken floor tile.”
Reflecting back, he had absolutely no clue what made him say it. Steve only got bits and pieces of what happened with the sauna test; the kids, Max in particular, hated talking about it.
Billy’s cigarette fell to one side. For a split second he looked stunned, like he’d been hit, and even though he recovered fast and scrubbed away all evidence with a smile like a concrete wall, Steve tasted guilt. 
He—fuck.
Steve scratched the back of his neck, fingers stinging. Not meeting Billy’s eyes. “Shit, man. I shouldn’t have—jesus.”
“Save it, Harrington,” Billy cut in, voice sinking an octave. Steve had expected it to sound angry, not resigned. Not hollow. “I know what I fucking did.”
Something churned in Steve’s stomach. Sickened him. He never thought about whether Billy remembered what the Mindflayer did with his body. He lit up with the sudden urge to double down on his apology, to explain he didn’t hold Billy responsible for all that shit, none of them did, but when he parted his lips? Nothing came out. The words got stuck somewhere between formation and the roof of his mouth. 
Mercifully, Max chose that moment to shimmy through the front door sideways, shattering the tension like a rock through a window.

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

i do unironically think the best artists of our generation are posting to get 20 notes and 3 reblogs btw. that fanfic with like 45 kudos is some of the best stuff ever written. those OCs you carry around have some of the richest backstories and worldbuilding someone has ever seen. please do not think that reaching only a few people when you post means your art isn't worth celebrating.

I cannot imagine having these hands without being able to touch you. My hands were made for touching you.

the men and boys are innocent too.
we cry "the innocent women and children" to appeal to the masses, to try and force their sympathy, but the men and boys are innocent too.
I have seen sons crying out for their mothers, their fathers, their siblings. I have seen them break down at the loss of their families. I have seen them cling to their dead and grieve.
I have seen fathers cradle their dead children, seen them kiss their faces and hold their little hands. I have seen them faint with grief when asked to identify the dead. I have seen them carry their sons and daughters. I have seen them fasting to provide what little they can for their families.
I have seen men and boys digging through the rubble with just their bare hands, I have seen them comforting strangers, playing with children, rocking them, hushing them, even if the face of such imminent danger. I have seen them cry, seen them grieve, seen them break down into each other's arms, seen them be selfless, beyond selfless, becoming something I don't have a word for.
I have seen the men who are doctors refuse to leave their patients, even when they have no medicine or supplies to give them, even when they're threatened with bombings. I have seen fathers who have lost all their children pick orphans up into their arms and proclaim them their child so they are not alone. I have seen men and boys digging pets out of the rubble.
the men are innocent too. the men and boys are being hurt and killed too. the men and boys are grieving too. the men and boys are scared too. the men and boys are fighting to save their people too. the men and boys deserve to be fought for too.

Angsty Starcourt Survivor Billy Headcanons I plan to incorporate
- Billy doesn’t get drunk after being flayed—barely even touches a drink at all, at least for a period of time. What used to be shit he did for fun, to forget, hail the new keg king, turns into a fear of losing control of his own body. He has trouble falling asleep for this reason, too, and even though he knows it’s okay, it’s safe now, it’s so damn hard to release consciousness without putting up a fight, because what if he doesn’t wake up as himself?
- Billy learned a lot about Vecna during his time as one of the flayed. He knows things about Will he can’t explain, became aware of Vecna’s distinct fixation on Eleven, sunk like a stone into a bottomless well of icy fury not his own—the eerie power of which he’ll never forget. Vecna didn’t plan on him living to keep this knowledge; Billy lives, anyway. If they meet again in season 4, they’ll have a lot to say to one another.
- Vecna controlled whether Billy saw what he was doing. Sometimes being flayed was like sitting shotgun; a tear might slip through, but Billy’s mouth and fists moved on their own, and he had a front row seat. Other times, maybe when he was close to someone who might help him, or when he would have fought too much, it was like being locked in the trunk of his car going 90 down the freeway. He doesn’t recall anything from those moments. However, because his body still experienced it, memories of what Vecna hid from him start leaking through.

I hate that the "Gen Alpha can't read." conversation so much because people are taking this as a chance to call children stupid and their parents monsters instead of having a very real discussion about how the education system is flawed by design, covid fucked up everything socialization wise, these parents having little access to child care and more work hours leads them to lean on things like tablets and phones to watch their kids more and more, teachers are more overworked and underpaid than ever leading to them leaving the profession in droves and that's only like the surface level issues. There's a myriad of factors at play here, not just that "The kids are spoiled screen-addicted brats with no imagination and their parents are childish spoiled millennials who just let coco melon handle everything."

advice i think we should tell children is that when adults say stuff like ‘now that i’m an adult i get really excited about stuff like coffee tables and bathrooms and rugs etc’ they don’t mean ‘and now i don’t care about blorbo and squimbus from my childhood tv shows anymore’ bc your average adult still loves all the same pop culture stuff they always did; they just have a greater appreciation for the mundane as well. growing up just means you can enjoy life twice as much now. you can get really excited about a new stuffed animal AND about a new kitchen sponge. peace and love
