There were only 2 acceptable endings for Robin in HIMYM.
1. She and Barney stay together because they are actually perfect for each other. They have similar values, they support each other, and they are an excellent laser tag duo.
2. Robin and Barney split up because as much as they love each other, their life goals are incompatible. Robin goes on to decide she prefers being single, and although she sometimes gets a little wistful about what might've been in her love life, she is enjoying the crap out of her life. She's an award-winning journalist who travels the world, meeting all sorts of interesting people and having so many adventures. When she's in NYC, she still spends time with her best friends- her family- enjoying their happiness while they enjoy hers.
Either of these endings would have been PERFECT for her. Instead, the writers decided to force Ted and Robin together, no matter how their ending splinters the story around them. Malvados...👿

Celebrity Crush AU
idk why but the idea that in an alternate universe Raven somehow was never told Batman or Robin's secret identity and as a teen developed a not-so-slight crush on the very private, animal-loving billionaire Damian Wayne is almost as enticing as Robin KNOWING she has a lock screen of him and follows his socials and every so often cryptically dropping hints about his ideal gf which ofc is just him describing Raven.
Raven: *comes to training with a slight lovesick smile on her face*
Everyone else: WTF 😶
Robin, internally: Ah, I see she's seen my post about preferring bookworms for their inquisitive minds. Excellent. In two weeks I shall proceed to phase 2.
Alternatively,
Robin, painstakingly spending an hour crafting the perfect post for Raven to stumble on later: This is exactly how you flirt. Father simply has no idea what he is doing when it comes to women. Thank goodness I didn't get this from him.

The spicy six are hanging out at Steve’s getting high when Robin decides to mess with Steve and Eddie, thinking they're both straight. She decides to make up something so ridiculous:
Robin: Steve says he thinks about you sometimes when he's making love to himself.
Eddie: What?
Steve: One time.
Eddie and Robin: What?!
Steve: I thought about bangs, and your face just appeared beneath them.
Robin: 😳
Eddie:

Robin, panicking: We shouldn't have come. I knew it. We shouldn't have come.
Nancy: We had to. There's safety in numbers.
Robin: Well, there's also death in numbers, Nance. It's called a massacre!

Robin falls asleep on the way back to the Wheeler house, Nancy driving of course.
Nancy doesn't wake her, instead she gets out, rounding the car and opening Robin's door. She unbuckles Robin's seat belt, which finally causes her girlfriend to stir.
Robin let's out a soft groan, and Nancy gently shushes her, "it's okay Rob, go back to sleep, I got you."
Robin mumbles something, well her mouth moves but the words; the words are indistinguishable sounds.
"You gotta speak up if you want me to hear you baby." Nancy's voice is sickeningly sweet and soft, "wrap your arms around my neck. I'll carry you up to my room."
Robin does as she's told, almost on autopilot as Nancy slides her own hands between the seat and Robin's back, the other going for her legs.
"What about your parents?" Robin manages to fight off enough sleep to make her words telligible.
Nancy shrugs, lifting Robin into her arms, "my mom kinda likes you...I'm not sure if she's caught on that we're actually dating, but she definitely favors you."
"And Ted sucks." There's this stupid goofy grin on Robin's face, and Nancy bites one side of her lip, the other side mimicking Robin's goofy smile.
"Exactly. Now let's get you up to my room."

The Real™ way Selina Kyle joined the batfamily was like this:
Batman and Robin were chasing after Catwoman in the dead of night after she stole jewels. They are all leaping across rooftops until Catwoman hesitates at a jump. It is rather large, larger than the rest and it would cause a lot of damage if she missed, but if she tried, she might be able to calculate this right as to not get injured. But before she can do that, two figures come up behind her.
Batman: Give up, Catwoman, you're a coward.
Robin, devilish smirk: Some might even say you're... A pussy
Batman, turning around, not even facing Selina anymore: *gasp* Robin! Where did you learn that from! If you say that again, you'll be grounded- no it isn't funny, as your father, I will not tolerate that language, you are a child!
And during all this, Selina is just watching while internally like 'this dude needs some help raising his kid, like he is a mess' and then in true cat fashion, she just domesticates herself into Wayne Manor

Steve's Part Robin's Part Nancy's Part Eddie's Part
Tumblr media
Nancy pressed down the wrinkles on her skirt as she stood in the kitchen. She had a pot of milk on the burner to warm up, but she found herself oddly anxious. Steve, Eddie, and Robin were coming over and despite looking forward to seeing them, it almost felt like she was entertaining some big-wigs rather than her friends. It had been over a year since she had seen everyone in person, and she hadn’t been playing host then. But the four of them had spent plenty of time together at her house, they had saved the goddamn world together, for Christ’s sake. Still, she hadn’t had anyone over since her and Jonathan had broken up last summer. 
It felt weird to be back in Hawkins after all of that, even if the break-up had been amicable. Their lives were just moving in different directions and Nancy felt like she was holding Jonathan back while at the same time, Jonathan seemed to feel the same way. 
She wanted a career. 
Jonathan wanted a family.
They were both supportive of the other’s hopes and dreams, but it didn’t feel like they met at any junction when it came to big life choices. As sad as it was, it had been the right decision. Jonathan deserved happiness and somewhere along the line, Nancy stopped being the person that could give that to him. 
So… she was single. Single for the first time since she was 15 and that felt ridiculous. She didn’t know how to navigate that, but she was a capable woman, and she had no doubt she’d figure it out… so long as everyone stopped asking her about it.
There was a rapid knock on the door and Nancy went to answer it without a second thought. It couldn’t be anyone else other than Steve or Eddie—Robin didn’t hit things that hard. Plus, no one else was going to be out in this weather. It hadn’t snowed since yesterday, but it hadn’t melted either. Not many people braved the roads in these kinds of conditions unless they had all-wheel-drive or a death wish. 
Nancy opened the door to Eddie, who was shivering and had his back turned to the door.
“--Die, I swear to god, Eddie Mun–”
Nancy looked from Robin who was struggling up the path to the curly mop of brown hair in front of her.
“Why would he die?” Nancy asked, genuinely curious to know what they were talking about and if there was an actual reason to be concerned over Eddie’s well-being.
She didn’t get a proper answer as Eddie pushed his way into the house, hardly offering a hello as he chattered and kicked his boots off. She didn’t exactly expect decorum from Eddie, but a hello would have been nice. At least Robin and Steve had stopped to say their hellos.
Suddenly everything felt busy, but Robin and Steve fell right into step as they hugged her. It was familiar and warm, and many of Nancy’s worries disappeared as she shut the door behind them. 
“Glad to see you guys made it in one piece,” Nancy half-laughed, amused that their antics were so high-spirited considering they’d been on the road for the last hour at least—and a flight before that. Nancy herself had gotten in four days ago from New York and had plenty of time to settle. She hoped it was just as easy to settle into a conversation with them all as it had been to fall back into old habits around the house. 
It was fun how at home everyone seemed to be, though: Robin sitting on the floor and Steve and Eddie cuddled up on the couch together. They all lived together, so there was no doubt that they’d have a rapport with one another.
Still, her worries about being “the odd man out” didn’t come to light as they asked about her parents and she enthusiastically talked about Holly and her school play. It was so funny to see Holly being a proper young woman now; she was in elementary school and while she was still quiet, there was a bit of that feistiness Nancy loved to see. She had taken note of it when Holly had directly told her that Mike and Nancy were not allowed to come to her performance tonight. 
“Oh!” Nancy declared suddenly as she stood up. “I made cocoa, I forgot, one second.” 
Actually, she had made warm milk, and more accurately she had left it on the stove unattended.
She rounded the corner into the kitchen with some haste as she beelined it for the stove. The milk hadn’t boiled over yet-–which was a relief-–so she took it off the burner right away and grimaced, hoping she hadn’t burned it. 
Robin came in shortly after, and Nancy offered something of an awkward laugh before putting the pot of milk to the side.
“Almost ruined it,” Nancy said quietly, and then gestured toward the cupboard where they kept the mugs.
“They won’t know the difference,” Robin chuckled conspiratorially before retrieving the mugs.
Nancy watched her quietly while pulling out the tin of cocoa mix. Robin had changed her hair and she was dressed as odd as ever. But it worked. It wasn’t exactly fashionable, but it was stylish. Her hair was cut harsher than it had been in high school. The front was about as long as it had been in ‘86, but she had cropped up the back, so her hair was cut at an uneven angle, and she still had her beach waves. It was… rebellious, but in a subtle way that Nancy enjoyed.
Robin was… pretty. She was pretty in a way that boys wouldn’t find attractive, but that Nancy found herself appreciating. She had been thinking about this a lot lately, and she wasn’t really sure how she felt about the whole thing. Furthermore, she was single now-–single for the first time in years–and she had never… experimented. At least that was the phrase they used in school when she talked to some of the more “out-there” writers that seemed to match Robin’s style.
Oh, you’ve never even tried going with a girl?
Sue is fine, as long as you’re cool with her liking girls.
You’ve got to have life experiences if you’re going to write about different people’s lives.
Nancy wasn’t sure how she felt about all of that, but she wasn’t particularly close to any of those girls, and she had learned quickly that New York had a lot of queer people. The only thing that had gotten them to keep her on the level was when she mentioned her ex-boyfriend’s boyfriend who was in a metal band and her lesbian friend from high school. 
That seemed “edgy” enough to keep the conversations going, but Nancy hadn’t been single up until recently, and the last several months had been spent with her nose in her books trying to ignore and get over her breakup. It had only been as the semester was ending that Nancy had really started to think about other possibilities. 
Robin was… queer. She knew her. Was that pushing things? 
You were allowed to have flings and one-night stands, but it felt weird thinking about it toward a friend. But then again, Robin and her weren’t crazy close. They got along well, she liked Robin, but that was probably pushing things. What was her intention behind all of this, anyway?
Curiosity. 
Robin was chatting to her pleasantly, and Nancy smiled as she poured the warm milk into the mugs that Robin had fetched. She couldn’t believe she was thinking about this kind of stuff about Robin. That hardly felt fair-–it was messy, but Nancy had learned that she was a messy person when she tore away the layers of properness. She had always been someone who had shocking parallels. 
Nancy walked the cocoa into the living room behind Robin and handed her spare mug over to Steve before sitting down on the couch opposite them. Robin peppered her with questions about school and Nancy talked about her classes and potentially doing an internship in the summer. Boring stuff. But it was a nice distraction to stop her thoughts from spiralling.  
“How about you?”  Nancy asked pleasantly, curious how school was going to Robin up in Chicago.
“Oh! Just my uh, just my basic credits. I haven’t really decided, not properly yet, well, maybe I have. I don’t know? It’s a big question. I might be transferring to another school outside of Chicago, but I have to think about whether it’s worth it and I haven’t really checked if my credits are going to transfer yet, but uh, Vickie was saying she was thinking of going to… Columbia State, so….”
Nancy blinked with mild surprise at Robin’s response, staring at her a moment. She banished any thoughts of flirting or otherwise with Robin, especially as the conversation turned to Vickie. 
“Vickie? Vickie Newberry from school?” Nancy asked, not accusatory, but unsure how to react to the news. 
“Her high school sweetheart,” Eddie sighed, making himself sound overly dramatic.
“Oh… that’s sweet. Are you guys seeing one another?” Nancy questioned, looking from Eddie as Steve prodded him back to Robin, who was blushing.
Nancy didn’t want to admit that she was surprised and unfairly jealous in some small way that Robin was going with Vickie. Robin deserved happiness and Nancy’s chances of ‘having a fling’ were slim to none, so really it wasn’t fair at all to have her stomach flipping with annoyance and loss. 
It was good. Robin deserved that. She should have a girlfriend. She hoped Robin had a girlfriend, not only for Robin’s happiness but for Nancy’s prudence as well. 
Robin seemed to have intentions of heading over to Vickie’s place within the hour to visit, and Nancy didn’t mind entertaining Steve and Eddie by themselves. It made sense for Robin and Vickie to get together. They had been in band and Nancy had heard some kind of talk about Vickie from Steve in the summer of ‘86 before he had moved to Chicago with Robin. Nancy had heard that Vickie had stayed in Hawkins after her father’s death. That was all she knew about Vickie, though, they had never been friends in high school. 
When Robin did eventually leave-–knocking over an empty plate of cookies in her haste—Nancy said her goodbyes properly and tried not to smile when Steve gave Robin a pep-talk. It was charming to see Steve and Robin interact, and she was happy for both of them. Steve had never been like this with Tommy or Carole, and for the year that they had dated, he hadn’t really replaced those friendships with anyone else. It made Nancy think of Barb and how she had never really replaced that friendship either.
Nancy brushed off the pit forming in her stomach and waited for the door to close before turning on the vacuum that Steve had fetched for her. It was a quick clean up, and really she didn’t mind all that much that Robin seemed to be a tornado of clumsiness when her nerves got to her.
“Don’t you think you should ask me?” Eddie said finally when Nancy turned off the vacuum. She looked at him puzzled before she realized that he was talking to Steve.
“Offering a 3 am walk to Robin’s in the middle of the night if she blows things with Vickie? Don’t you think you should ask me?” 
Steve huffed at him as he sat down, slinging his arm around the back of the couch.
“You expect me to not go over to Robin’s in the middle of the night if she blows her first big, like, in-person thing with Vickie?”
The argument wasn’t all that serious, and Nancy rolled her eyes with amusement before putting the vacuum away. She liked this little window into Steve and Eddie’s relationship, it was charming. They seemed to argue a lot, but none of the disagreements held any weight. It wasn’t ribbing—not quite what she’d seen when Steve or Eddie interacted with her brother’s friends—but it was affectionate tormenting or something like that. It was also charming to see that Steve wasn’t backing down from his promise to Robin. 
“Snowing, by the way,” Nancy said as she tucked her skirt behind her knees and sat down again.
“Oh—yeah, you owe me,” Steve said, pointing at Eddie accusatory. “What did you say? There was no way we’d get stuck here? You’d eat your shorts or something like that?”
Steve was grinning at Eddie, who was rolling his eyes and looking properly annoyed. Not too much had changed then, Eddie still hated to lose.
“One of you going to start singing Santa Baby?” Nancy asked, leaning back on the couch and watching the two boys. Robin had to deal with this all the time? It sounded like they never stopped talking.
“Do I need to make up the pull-out bed in the basement?” She asked on a slightly more serious note. If the car was going to stay here, it would make sense for them to stay here.
“Let’s just see if it lets up,” Eddie offered, bristling slightly, obviously still keen on being right.
Steve rolled his eyes, but ultimately dropped it. It felt honest, and Nancy liked that; she had never been able to be fully honest with Steve. She regretted that. As friends, though, she was glad Steve was willing to let her make it up to him.
So much about Steve and Eddie seemed the same as it had been when they left Hawkins, but then again, Nancy could see so much growth. Both individually and as a couple. There was not quite an air of maturity as there was an air of ease. They were comfortable with one another. They played off each other’s faults and ‘isms in a natural, almost rehearsed, way. Rehearsed like you’d rehearse live jazz; none of it was planned, but you jammed together enough that you knew how to riff. 
Nancy wondered idly if the boys would be interested at all in doing an interview with her that she could submit for a class, or maybe even publish. 
The phone rang and as Nancy got up to answer it, the power dimmed and flickered for a moment. The call seemed to drop instantly, and the house went quiet.
All three of them looked up at the ceiling before Eddie hopped up and leaned over the back of the couch to open the curtains.
“Jesus, it’s really blowing out there now…”
“You sure you still want to wait?” Steve asked, obviously trying not to sound smug.
“Might as well wait,” Nancy offered before walking into the kitchen and fishing in the junk drawer for a flashlight. She wasn’t going to sit there and then stumble around in the dark if the power ended up going out.
“If it’s bad enough that you can’t leave, you can just sleep in the basement,” Nancy instructed, walking to the hall closet to grab the candles they kept there. “And if it lets up, then you can leave.”
Steve chuckled as she walked back into the room and deposited her handful of ‘emergency’ goods on the table.
“What?” She asked, sitting back down on the couch to enjoy the dregs of the cocoa.
“Just funny,” Steve offered, smiling at her. “Nancy… always prepared.”
He sounded charmed, as if he was reminiscing over something. The look made Nancy blush, and she glanced down, feeling a bit embarrassed for being called out like that.
“Reminds me of high school,” Steve replied, which made Nancy huff.
High school was two—nearly three—years ago now. For Steve, that meant it was almost four years ago. It felt like it was forever ago, and yet it was still crisp in her mind. 
“You should see her handbag,” Steve commented, gesturing to Eddie as if he was about to launch into a funny story. “One time-–I swear, it was like six times in one day-–I asked for stuff, and she just always had it handy. Pen, check. Dental floss? Check. I think I asked for a water bottle? You had that too. And like, what else—it just kept getting weirder, I swear. You had like a little compact screwdriver in there, and a pen light. You had a damn fork in there once. I think the weirdest thing you ever had in there was like first thing in the morning you came to the track field, and I was complaining that I was hungry, and you were lamenting with me and then-–like a magician or something-–pulled a jar of peanut butter out of your purse. Like, a whole jar! I remember absolutely losing it.”
Nancy flushed more at the memory as Steve laughed heartily and Eddie stared at her with amused awe.
“You remember that?” Nancy groaned, covering her face. She was unable to help herself from laughing, too. It had been so long ago she was less self-conscious about it, but Steve had laughed so loudly in public that it had embarrassed her horribly at the time.
“Wait, wait, you’ve got to tell me the story behind that,” Eddie insisted, his expression intense and his smile wide.
“It’s really not that interesting,” Nancy replied, getting a handle on her emotions. “I just… it was after school the day before, and I was really annoyed that Mike and Holly kept eating all the peanut butter when like it was my preference for breakfast, but they wouldn’t leave me like any, probably on purpose on Mike’s part. So I just… my mom bought a new peanut butter jar and I just put it in my purse without anyone noticing, so I could have it for breakfast the next morning and then… totally forgot about it.”
Nancy covered her eyes and laughed some more, finding her actions to be so childish now. She had only been 15 at the time, but it felt like that was a decade away.
“Spiteful, I like it,” Eddie grinned, crawling up onto his knees and peppering her with more questions. 
The evening continued like that, and the weather did eventually let up. It was still snowing, but the wind had died down, and the debate of whether they should stay or go arose. Eddie was all for going before he remembered he had forgotten his coat at home, and walking in this weather without proper winter wear was bound to be hellish. Steve was flip-flopping on the pros and cons of staying or going, the least of which was how cold the basement got at night. Nancy couldn’t help but think that the Munson’s trailer was bound to be worse.
“Well, just borrow my jacket,” Nancy finally offered, getting a bit sick of the boys arguing back and forth about whether or not they should leave.
Eddie blinked at her owlishly until Steve nudged him.
“You’d probably fit,” Steve chortled, smiling at his boyfriend.
“It definitely won’t!” Eddie declared, and Nancy thought she maybe saw a hint of a blush before she got up to grab her winter coat. It was large on her, and she had purposefully bought an oversized parka for New York so she could layer more easily. It was purple with white trims, and she could see Eddie’s nose curling as she walked in with it.
“Just try it,” she scolded. Steve was staying surprisingly quiet as she held back her own grin. 
Eddie huffed with annoyance, but eventually did take the jacket and tried it on. The zipper strained a bit, but it fit, and Eddie turned to look at Steve indignantly. 
“I hate you,” Eddie muttered, tucking into the collar of the coat. Steve was seemingly unable to hold back anymore, and he snorted a laugh.
“Really cuts a nice figure on you,” Steve complimented, indicating toward Eddie’s waistline and how the coat tapered in fashionably.
“Okay, we’re staying here, I’m not wearing this,” Eddie huffed, trying to undo the zipper.
“Careful! This is new,” Nancy scolded, trying not to smile as well and make fun of Eddie by mistake.
“Babe—sweetheart, don’t. Come on, it’s one walk, no one is out,” Steve encouraged, taking Eddie’s hands and stopping him from ruining the coat. “Plus, I’ll take it as an ‘I told you so’ instead of eating your shorts.”
“I hate you…” Eddie repeated, flushing bright enough this time that Nancy was able to clock it.
Nancy grinned at the two boys, finding it incredibly endearing that they argued like this. They were so catty with each other, but there was also so much softness between them. As cheesy as it sounded, it made Nancy feel as if romance wasn’t dead.
With Jonathan and herself, things had worked their way into a routine, and while there was comfort in that, things hadn’t been lively anymore. Nancy wanted lively. Even if it was short-lived; she was 20, and she was allowed a short-term thing. None of her friends from school were getting married yet anyway, even if the pressure was there from the outside. She wanted her career… maybe she could get used to starting a romance short-term wherever she went. Maybe experimenting could be less taboo. 
Maybe she’d talk to Robin about this and ask her thoughts on dating girls. Just in general. Not her specifically. 
Nancy sighed as she saw the boys to the door, holding out an old pair of Mike’s gloves for Eddie and one of her father’s beanies.
“Be safe,” Nancy said pleasantly, smiling at Eddie and Steve as Steve put on his winter boots.
“Thanks, Nance,” Steve said back, leaning into her for a hug. He gave her a squeeze and Nancy laughed a bit at the intimacy of it.
“If we’re able, we should do something else before we all skip town,” Steve offered, looking at Eddie, who was miserably stuffing his hair up into his hat so it wouldn’t blow around.
“Yeah, that’d be swell. Real peachy,” Eddie grumbled, standing there like a soaked cat, sulking.
Steve shoved him in the shoulder and Eddie stumbled slightly before looking away with a flush, obviously regretful of being so dismissive. He was just in a sour mood and Nancy wasn’t all that bothered by it, Eddie was just like that.
“You’ll have to return my coat before I leave anyway,” Nancy reminded them, and Eddie rolled his shoulder forward slightly as if he was hiding.
“Yeah, I… thanks, Nance,” Eddie said quietly and Nancy smiled at him softly. Out of the three of them, Eddie was the oldest, but he was also the one Nancy felt was the most like a little brother for her. She already had one of those and Eddie was more mature than Mike, but she had a similar protective feeling toward him.
“Be safe,” Nancy encouraged, hugging the side of the door as Steve joined Eddie out on the stoop, the two of them bundled to the nines. “Call when you get in.”
“We will,” Steve confirmed, casually-–and easily—taking Eddie’s hand. It was strange for Nancy to see them being affectionate out in public like this, but with Eddie so bundled up, no one would know who he was-–no one would likely recognize Steve either.
“Night,” Steve offered as he stepped down and offered his other hand to Eddie to help him. Eddie said something vaguely condescending, and Nancy felt her heart warm slightly.
“Night,” she repeated quietly and then shut the door.
Nancy ran her hands over her skirt and flattened down the wrinkles before glancing at the sitting room and the mess left behind. There were still crumbs that needed to be cleaned off the couches and treats that should be packed away so they didn’t go stale, but Nancy felt good, seeing the imprint of her friends in her childhood home. She had been worried they had fallen out of sync with each other, but it had taken little effort to fall back in step with them all. For having been alone for the last six months… that was a comfort larger than Nancy could describe.

“give it up for eddie munson, a free man at last!” robin yelled, holding her glass up in the air as everyone cheered.
“i was in jail for two days.” eddie said, sipping his beer.
“it was the worst two days of my life.” you pouted, putting your head on his shoulder.
“yeah cause fighting interdimensional monsters is so fun.” steve said, rolling his eyes.
“don’t be such an anti-cupid, steve.” nancy teased.
“yeah,” robin said. “young love is beautiful.”
“hear that, baby?” eddie asked you, pecking you on the cheek. “we’re in love.”
“‘course we are.” you said. “i wasn’t gonna call up my asshole cousin to get harrington out of jail.” 
“woah, woah.” steve protested. “what is it? hate on steve day?” 
“no, that’s february 4th.” robin said.
“that’s your birthday, robin.”
“i’m assuming you won’t get me anything, so i took matters into my own hands.”
“you’re so — ”
the two began arguing as an annoyed nancy got up to escape to the bathroom, leaving you and your boyfriend virtually alone.
“thank you.” eddie said. “i don’t think i would’ve been here if it wasn't for you.”
“don’t thank me, eds.” you said. “i was lying before, i would’ve done it for anyone. including steve.”
“i’m not talking about the lawyer,” he said, turning around to face you completely. “i mean, that was really fuckin’ helpful, and i immensely thank you for that, but i’m just talking about in general. believing me ‘n shit.”
“i’ll always believe you.”
“yeah, you say that, and i’m really flattered, but i’m just saying it would’ve been really easy to not believe me. But you still did, and you got everyone else on board… if you didn’t then i probably would’ve been face down in a ditch, bludgeoned to death by the basketball team or something.”
“i’ll always believe you, eddie.” you repeated, cupping his face in your hands. “even when it’s crazy, or unbelievable, or if everyone else in the world doesn’t – i’ll always be right here.” 
he smiled, his cheeks squishing in your hands. “i think you’re way too good for me.”
“so i’ve heard.” you laughed. “i missed you so much.”
“can’t go two days without me, baby?”
“after all this shit,” you said, “i can’t go two minutes without you.”
“‘m not opposed to that.” he said, releasing his face from your hands and resting his head in your neck. “you can’t get mad at me for blastin’ my music at 2 am when you’re tryna sleep, though.”
you grimaced. “maybe i’ll just sleep at my parent’s house.”
he whined dramatically, the vibrations on your skin giving you goosebumps. “fine, but you’ve gotta listen to somewhere in time with me, ‘kay?”
“i guess they say love’s all about sacrifice...”
“that reminds me.” he said, looking back up in your eyes. “i love you too.”
“was waitin’ for that.” you smiled, pressing your lips against his. what started as a teethy, chaste kiss turned deeper when he slid his tongue in your mouth.
“woah, gross!” robin yelled, pulling the two of you out of your moment.
“thought you were pro-love today, what happened?” you asked.
“that was before i saw eddie’s tongue enter your mouth.” she said, fake gagging. “now i’m disturbed.” 
“that’s a funny way of sayin’ you’ve never been frenched before.” eddie said, laughing at his own joke.
“gross.” robin mumbled. “dudes are gross.” nancy laughed and threw her arms around her, patting her shoulder in reassurance.
“mmhmm,” you said, the cheap beer you were drinking finally hitting your head at you leaned into eddie for another kiss. “let’s show ‘em how it’s done, munson.”
he smiled and kissed you again, dramatically ramming his tongue into your mouth over and over until he could hear steve and robin’s cries for them to stop.

back on my timber/berkon agenda and lately ive been picturing this scenario where tim wants to introduce bernard to his friends but isn't that ready to come out to bart, cassie and kon yet so he's like "hey everyone this is my close friend bernard he's tagging along today hope nobody minds" and yeah nobody does!!
bart finds bernard's conspiracy theories incredibly amusing and eggs him on, cassie is highkey surprised at how much info bernard has gathered and lowkey wary because bernard's like... Really Good at gathering clues and shit from blurry footage and drawing conclusions, too bad his mind always wanders off in the wrong direction bcs like he's This Close to figuring out a lot of shit. and kon!! kon!! he just genuinely has a crush at first sight. bernard's smart and easygoing and has good banter and honestly pretty attractive so kon's like... trialing after bernard like a lost puppy. they stop to grab a bite and kon (not so) subtly asks if bernard's involved with anyone and bernard is like "uhhh well there's this guy i like!!" because he's not gonna out tim like wtf but also... he's in a relationship and it's hard to toe the line between being like "yes i love my bf sosososomuch" and not giving too much away. anyway kon kinda bites the inside of his cheek and goes "well how serious is this guy, do you know? because if he's not gonna ask u out then he's holding the line" and tim (who has spent the whole day following after his best friend and his boyfriend stewing in jealousy but unable to say shit about it) is like "OKAY BERNARD'S MY BOYFRIEND HE'S TAKEN BACK OFF CONNER" and he drags bernard out of the restaurant
anyways superboy challenges red robin to a duel for bernard's hand in marriage like a day after and bernard spends the next two weeks holed up in his room trying to figure out why the fuck two vigilantes that up until this point appeared to be best friends are now in an open feud with one another.

Steve being a mean girl
A snippet of what I'm working on for my next coming part of 'Bark At the Moon' though if you don't want to read it that's fine you can read this scene all by itself :) It isn't in the fic yet but will be when I'm done writing
Link to Bark At The Moon
TW; The word queer is being used in a derogatory way and is only used once and is in the first paragraph under the keep reading line.
Tonight was like any other night. Steve sitting up on the front counter, feet up reading something while he waited for his shift to be over. Robin had finished stock hours ago and was sitting far as possible from Steve. But still near him. She was doing some crossword puzzle, her hair freshly cut into a bob as they both stay in silence. Neither of them hops up when they hear the familiar bell ring. 
Steve simply glances up over what he was reading. Seeing that it was some group of bitchy girls. All of them were younger than him and he can't help but roll his eyes at the way they were acting. Silently reminding himself that they were in fact still children. Looking down at his paper he doesn't pay any more attention to them until he hears them mumbling things. His senses were heightened and he could hear everything they were saying.
"Can't believe they let freaks work here." One of them whispers to another. Steve assumes they were talking about him, he's heard far worst and didn't really care. The girls were trying to keep their words silent and hushed except for one. There was always one.
"Poor guy has to sit next to a queer all night. Honestly, they should pay him more for compensation." The girl's voice is obnoxious and Steve can hear Robin's fidgeting become far worst. Her face is red and Steve was getting pissed. His wolf was fully prepared to literally eat the brunette with horrible eyeshadow on. He could also feel the anxiety raising from Robin whose hands were starting to shake around the crossword she was working on. Not really looking down at it anymore, her eyes may be but her mind wasn't.
Steve moves sitting up as he acts casual. Humming as he acts like he didn't hear the girls. Moving and scouting them for a second, eyes flickering back to Robin who was trying to sneakily look up from where she sat to see what he was doing. Her eyes were watery and that was all he needed to commit to what he was doing. 
He watches the girls go to a blind spot, an area that the managers have been trying to get a camera on for a while. But no one was trying to steal stuffed animals. As it was far too easy to get caught. Steve gasps loudly, causing all of the girls to turn around to look at him with confusion. He knocks all of the teddy bears down on the ground on purpose. Watching them all jump back. 
"Oh my god, I can't believe you girls were trying to steal." He gasps. "And all for a teddy bear? God, I'm going to have to call the cops. Hey Robin, how fast do you think the cops can get here for shoplifting!" Steve yells loudly. Staring at all of the girls that have gone a bit pale. The one that had decided to open her mouth earlier was moving to open it again. But before she can he's gasping as he picks up one of the makeup pallets that was set on the shelf next to the teddy bear. All were outdated and from February, but the store was still determined to sell them. 
"Oh honey, no wonder you're trying to steal this terrible makeup pallet as well. It's okay, not all of us have good taste when it comes to doing makeup. I have a friend, her name is Carol. I can give you her number if you want to learn how to mask being a bigoted piece of shit better." He says with a pout of his lip. "Or did I just use a big word for you babe?" He's being dramatic in the way he talks. Cocking his hip out with purpose as a grin works its way to his face. 
Most of the girls were starting to cry, and the ring leader's face was red from what was most likely embarrassment. It's been a while since he's had to be a mean girl but damn did it feel good. He was doing it partially for himself, but mostly for Robin who didn't deserve the shit they were trying to give her. He knew that she might not like what he was doing, but he knew if he didn't do something then the silence of saying nothing was going to do more harm than embarrassing her. He runs a hand through his hair as he sets the makeup back down on the shelf as he hums. 
"So, this is how it's going to go. Either you A, cooperate and give me the stolen merchandise and give me and Buckley your names and ID's so you can be permanently banned from the store, or B, you don't cooperate and we call the cops. And trust me, I don't think Chief Hopper will be too pleased waking up just to deal with your sorry asses. If you guys haven't heard, I kind of went missing and now I have the chief's personal phone number on speed dial." he says with a cocky grin. 
Sure, he was lying. He didn't have Hopper's personal phone number but it was so worth lying over if it meant scaring the shit out of these girls. All of them look at each other before looking defeated and following Steve up to the front. Who makes sure to move and lock the front doors so they didn't try to book it. He moves pulling out his phone as he sees that Robin was no longer sitting at the front counter. Which was understandable as he begins to ruin these girls' nights just like they had his coworkers.
