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?!

a blurb from steve pov after bug hugs him? the halloween eps where she explains why she pulls away? pretty pleaseee i wanna know what was he thinking about at that time (sorry bad english)
ur fine my dear absolutely dont apologize !! i love this blurb <3 i'll do the hug one because we'll get more steve insight later in season 2 about bug pulling away !
enjoy !
"and who is the gift for, my beautiful boy?"
steve blushes at his mothers question. "just... a friend."
she gives him a knowing look, hums, but doesnt say anything. steve watches as her careful hands wrap the poster he spent hours trying to get. it took a lot of phone calls between him and his father, who has been away for work since the start of december. he hadnt wanted steve to "abuse his connections", which steve had thought was code for "embarrass me".
whatever. steve got the poster in the end, just in time for christmas.
and the hours of phones calls, pleading with his father, and pitiful looks from his mother were all worth it the second steve saw the shock and joy on your face when you opened the gift.
then you threw your arms around him and steves brain momentarily froze. he figured youd like the gift, but he never thought youd hug him and yet here he is, with you in his arms.
after his shock wears off, steve hugs you back with such a ferocity that hes scared hes hurt you for a second, but you only wrap tighter around him and bury your face in his sweater. hes surrounded by you. every inch of you is pressed against steve and he suddenly resents jonathan for having free access to your hugs.
"i love it, steve." you whisper, your words muffled by his sweater.
steves heart stutters a bit, and he just needs you as close as possible to him. he rests his head against yours, pulls you in even closer, and god. this was all worth it.
he'd take a million more lectures from his father if it meant he could make you happy again. steves never been hugged like this before. he thinks hes addicted to it already.
then mrs. waters walks in and steve thinks youll pull away, hide yourself in embarrassment being caught showing affection to him, but as always... you surprise steve.
you pull away, sure, but your arm stays wrapped around steves waist as you talk to your boss. you dont shy away from being seen with him, and something in steves brain goes haywire. he wants this, he wants more of this.
well, whatever this is.
he wants more of your open affection. and hes really, really excited that it seems like youre willing to give it to him, now.
steves kinda mad that all it took was buying you a christmas gift.
(it was expensive and worth steves entire allowance, but still. he wouldve done it sooner had he known).

What do you think of gay Steve who did not realize he was gay until Eddie due to ✨societal expectations ✨?
I love this so much !
I love the idea of Eddie helping Steve come to terms with the fact that he is gay.
The more time he spends with Eddie, the more he realises that he's starting to like Eddie in a way that he's unfamiliar with. It scares him at first. He's not supposed to feel this way about Eddie, about men. But the longer he dwells on those feelings, the more things start to piece together in his mind. Suddenly, it makes sense why he never felt a connection with the girls he dated, why he struggled to find a date as he got older and why he sometimes found his eyes wandering in the locker rooms.
But he doesn't accept that part of himself straight away. He ignores it for a while, let's it simmer in the back of his mind until after everything with vecna is over. He's not ready to have a sexuality crisis while making molotov cocktails.
It's not until Eddie outright says to him, a little drunkenly, "I'm gay and I'm really struggling to tell if you're flirting with me or just being a really good friend."
Steve hesitates for only a second because was he flirting with Eddie? He didn't mean to, or maybe he was doing it without realising, but either way, he's not mad at himself for doing it.
And Eddie's not mad at him either.
"I was flirting." He practically shouts, a little scared that if he didn't say the words right now, they'd never come out at all. The outburt startles Eddie, but the smile Steve gets from the metal head in return makes the uncertain feelings inside him feel a little less scary.

Hello! I'm back with more thoughts! I've seen so many posts and fics lately where everyone is super mean to Steve and I'm emotional I just want people to be nice to him. He gives so much to everyone! He cares so much! Idk I'm just an emo Steve Girlie rn
Give me a Robin who loves Steve with all her heart. He's her best friend, her platonic soulmate, her favourite guy. Robin, who makes sure to say "love ya, dingus" every time she says goodbye to Steve. When they hang up the phone, when one finishes a shift at Family Video, when one leaves the others house. And Steve always responds in kind, saying he loves her, and calling her Robbie or Robs or Dork or Dweeb. It makes Dustin absolutely insufferable, with him still not shutting up about them dating, but neither of them want to stop. Steve got literally tortured for her, she thought he died down in that bunker and there's no way she's stopping telling him that she loves him.
Robin and Steve who tell each other everything, things they've never told anyone else. Steve who tells Robin about the Halloween party. About bullshit. About how Nancy never loved him. How she broke his heart. He's over Nancy, but fuck, sometimes it still fucking hurts. And Robin who responds by immediately phasing the phase bullshit out of her vocabulary. Who makes sure to let Steve know that she loves him and always will.
Give me someone actually acknowledging that Steve is smart in his own way. Steve, who will occasionally venture into the Wheelers basement when Hellfire runs overtime to round up the kids, only to find absolutely everyone arguing over what to do next. Gareth, Jeff, the other one, all of the party. They'll ask Eddie a question (who is sitting behind his screen looking smug as hell) and then get back to bickering. And almost automatically Steve just says "What about X?" And proceeds to point out a detail that literally everyone missed. Because he's good at noticing things! He's aware! He's smart! He's the one who pointed out the Indiana Flyer music on the Russian message. If it weren't for him - Robin and Dustin still would have thought the message came from Russia itself. And someone says 'Good idea Steve'. And later Eddie admits to Steve that he was 100% right. The others were running themselves in circles, overthinking everything. If it weren't for Steve, they'd probably still be stuck there.
Give me a Dustin who loves Steve like a brother. Who keeps inviting Steve over for Sunday roast with his mother, and for a sleepover and pizza on a Friday after school because he genuinely loves spending time with Steve. Who tells him things he doesn't tell his mother, asks him for help with his hair. Bring back their dorky handshake that they made together when Dustin made Steve watch Star Wars with him (it wasn't super his thing, but he liked the teddy bears and Dustin loves it, so). They argue and bicker and tease each other like siblings - know exactly how to push each others buttons - but they love each other (even if Steve still thinks Dustin needs to learn more about humility and personal boundaries. If he has to hear one more comment about him dating Robin he swears to God...)
Give me an Eddie who starts dating Steve and instantly turns into the sappy, cheesy, absolutely head over heels goofball he really is under all that bluster. He put on a mask of his own, just like Steve used to. The freak, the metal head, the Satanist, and intimidating drug dealing son of a bitch. But he's really just a dorky guy who cares so passionately about the things he's interested in, trying to make his way and find his place in the world. Eddie, who realised he can be a bit of a hypocrite - once saying all jocks and popular kids were conformists and assholes, putting them in boxes - and then dating Steve who genuinely likes his light wash jeans and polo shirts. Who has fun playing basketball with Lucas and watching the baseball with Wayne (and doesn't that make Eddie's heart clench, seeing his two favourite people together). Who does these things because he likes them, actually, not because they'd make him popular.
So Eddie makes sure to tell Steve that the new polo he bought looks really good on him, nice pick babe. (And he's not lying - that shirt does amazing things to his shoulders, and the colour looks really nice with his skintone.) Eddie who smiles and nods when Steve starts talking about this really cool car he saw drive through town the other day, you should have seen it Eds; or about this really awesome play in the game last night, he was on the edge of his seat, because Steve just lights up having someone who listens. His parents never did. Tommy and Carol never did. So Robin does. So Eddie does.
Just Eddie loving and caring for this amazing guy he got the privilege to date (scared as they both are). Steve, his wonderful boyfriend who tries to learn about metal for him, and goes to Corroded Coffin concerts for him, and takes him to the drive in to see a horror that Steve doesn't like but Eddie does.
So Eddie goes on hikes with Steve (they're exhausting, but Steve seemed so happy to have him with him); and tries to learn the rules of Basketball to surprise him; and picks cheesy action movies to watch together because Steve likes them.
I just want fluff
And I just want to live in this. Oh my god this has squeezed my heart to the point of immobilisation. I can’t say anything other then please please if you ever expand on this I’ll be first in line. Steve has been the protector, the carer, the overseer, the worrier for everyone important to him and he is so reluctant to let somebody do that for him. Reluctant because he doesn’t want to get used to something that could be so easily taken away from him.
It takes him time but eventually Steve learns to accept this love from his friends. Let’s himself be loved with no expectations. The thing is it’s hard, really hard. He keeps trying to ‘pay people back’ for the kindness they show him. Thinks it is an exchange and panics when he thinks he hasn’t held up his side of the friendship. Tries to practically throws gifts at them, hoping he can buy their favour and that they won’t throw him to the side.
It gets to be too much and he gets overwhelmed and he cries. He’s in family video with Robin, eddie and Dustin. The three of them planning weekend activities, making sure to ask Steve what he wants to do and he just cracks. Can’t stop himself. Apologises, tells himself he’s being stupid. Takes himself off to the back room. It’s so abrupt that they all follow him, asking if he’s okay. Steves reluctant to say but then they see the tears in his eyes
‘so stupid guys I’m so sorry I’m trying really hard. Please tell me what to do. I need to make it up to you, please. I promise I can’
Robin crowds into his space, hugging him from behind.
‘Steve. This isn’t how this works. It’s okay. You are okay. You don’t buy us. I’m too expensive for that anyway’
Eddie is leaning up against the doorframe, fingers twitching to touch steve, reassure him, but restrains himself
‘Stevie, sweetheart, believe it or not, we want to do stuff with you. I have personally found a deep and unspeakable love for hearing you wax poetic about cars, so please. Now that I am acclimatised, don’t take that away from me?’ It’s all said with a smile but it’s sincere and Steve can see that
Dustin goes to start talking but Steve stops him
‘Henderson if you say one nice word I swear to god I’ll never let you live it down.’
So Dustin just flips his middle finger with a smile but still lets out a ‘love you man’
Steve brushes Robin off, tries to act like it’s no big deal. Tries to accept what he’s been told. Its not instantaneous and it’s not easy but he wants to accept it, wants to try and see what his friends see.
Robin and Steve close up family video, Eddie and Dustin getting in the way and are lovingly pushed out the door. Steve tells them to go wait at his house, that he’s having a movie night and they should get snacks. Robin smiles at him, glad that Steve is letting them stay close, that he isn’t pushing them away after being vulnerable. It’s a big step and they all know it. Steve Harrington is letting himself be loved.

Blurb Idea:
First time Steve saw reader? Or other way around!
🫶
hi dear !! gonna do the first time reader saw steve since steves first time seeing her can be found in this chapter !
enjoy <3
"whos that guy with all that hair?" you nudged jonathan to get his attention. theres a boy a few seats away from you in the lunchroom. hes surrounded by all the kids youve deemed as "popular". he has his head lazily thrown back with a relaxed smile on his face and for some reason he interests you.
jonathan shoves a sandwich in his mouth, which grosses you out. its been a few days of friendship with the guy, so youre still learning all his gross habits. when he finally responds, his mouth is so full of food that all you can hear is, "stebe herentun."
"who?"
he swallows. "steve harrington. hes a year older than us. bad news."
you look over at steves table again, frowning. bad news? the guy looks like he wouldnt hurt a fly. "we sure hes so bad?"
jonathan eyes almost pop out of his head. "yes, im sure, y/n! he hangs out with those assholes from yesterday."
this makes you frown even more. yesterday, you had to throw your carton of milk at some idiots who were bullying jonathan. they had been calling him all these lame names, like poor and loser boy, without any ounce of creativity.
blegh.
youve decided that whoever steve harrington is, if hes friends with those kids from yesterday, then you want nothing to do with him.
but then, from the corner of your eye, you see steve bend down to pick up some trash one of his friends have mindlessly thrown onto the floor and then walk it over to the trashcan. your eyes follow him, you watch as he separates himself from his group without so much as a huff, as if hes perfectly happy to be doing the right thing.
then, after steve has thrown the trash away, you see him apologize to the janitor for it, giving the old man a small wave as he does so.
huh.
"yeah, we dont like steve harrington." jonathan says, going back to his sandwich.
you hum at your friend, not really paying attention to him now. youre still watching steve, who has rejoined his friends and once again has resumed his suave and laid back composure. hes once again too cool for it all.
interesting
"yeah, alright." you finally say and return back to your own meal.
youre not exactly sure who steve harrington is, but maybe no one else does, either.

Somehow Steve finds the Superior™ version of his (yet-to-be boy)friend the most difficult villain he has ever encountered ;)
