Steddie Au Angst - 🌙

Tw // death

Its Thanksgiving of 1994.

Steve and Eddie have been together now for 5 years. They live together in an apartment in Indianapolis. Its nice, quiet.

Every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas, the kids pile into their small kitchen. Everyone brings their own dish. Traditions, am I right?

Steve, by mistake, gave Eddie the task of cooking the turkey. Eddie had never been the best cook, but he wanted to make Steve proud. So, he read the directions, did everything he was suppose to, and voilà! The turkey was done!

Eddie called Steve into the kitchen, asking him to taste test his masterpiece.

One moment, Steve was walking into the kitchen, a smile on his face.

The next, he was on the ground, convulsing.

Eddie wasn’t sure if he was screaming or not. He knows Dustin and Will got there at the same time, knew he told them to call 911.

Eddie felt his entire world shift, felt that time was too slow.

The ride to the hospital was a blur. Eddie felt numb. The nurses and doctos came to take the love of his life. He fought against them, wanting to go wherever Steve went.

He ended up stuck in the waiting room for hours, until a nurse came out for him. He knew the second he looked at her.

Steve Harrington suffered from severe Hydrocephalus. He would not make it to Christmas. He would not even make it to the end of that Thanksgiving.

They allowed Eddie to be with him, and his worse nightmares came true. Eddie held the love of his life while he died.

He laid in the bed, even after the heart monitor went flat. He laid there was Steves skin went cold. The only reason he moved is because the doctors had to pull him off.

At the funeral, Eddie was a mess. Steves hair was parted wrong. He wouldnt have worn that colored suit. His skin was clammy. All Eddie did was cry because the person who he was looking at in the coffin wasnt steve , wasnt his pretty boy. Eddie has to be dragged away from the coffin so they could load it into the hears.

After the burial, Eddie sits at Steves tombstone for hours. Robin comes with sandwiches, and sits by him. She finally gets Eddie to eat. They sit in silence for hours, staring at the words “Loving Son and Friend” because they know the lies behind the first two words.

“He was my soulmate, I think.” Eddies voice cracks from lack of use.

“Yeah, mine too.” Robin whispers back to him.

Robin wrapped Eddie in a hug. He was sobbing, then he was yelling. He pounded his fist against her chest, and she let him. He hurt so much. Eddie was convinced he was drowning, the pain in his chest and lungs unbearable. He wondered if people could die from heartbreak, because he thought thats what was happening.

Eddie Munsons heartbreak was devouring, and he was okay with that.

Steve Harrington Job thingy idk - 🌙

I love the idea of Steve being a teacher as much as the next guy but hear me out.

Steve becomes a NICU nurse.

Kids have always been a significant part of his life. He knew from the start that he wanted a job that surrounded him with children. Knew he wanted a job that helped children.

So, Steve Harrington made his way through nursing school. He made his way through clinicals, then through his NCLEX. There were times where Steve considered giving up, thought he wasn’t good enough. Thought that he was doing all of this for nothing.

But, Steve made it. He graduated top of his class. He even gave a speech at graduation. As he walked across the stage, he could hear his family cheering for him. Once the ceremony was over, Steve was smothered in hugs by his kids. Eddie placed a kiss to his forehead, told him he was proud of Steve.

Steve got a job as a NICU nurse. He was scared at first, scared he wouldn’t be able to handle it. Steve was scared he’d get too attached to the babies. He spent several nights crying in Eddies arms, telling him about the babies he lost, or the babies he will lose.

Steve went back every day, though, because this was his passion. He made it, because he got to do what he loved. He got to help other people.

Childhood best friends steddie au

Steve had this friend. His name is Eddie. They met at daycare, and were immediately attached at the hip. Eddie spewed his dreams of making it big, touring around the world. Steve knew he could do it, knew his best friend had what it takes. If he had to do one thing for the rest of his life, it was listening to Eddie play.

Unfortunately, Eddie disappeared in 7th grade, not a single goodbye or anything. Steve spends the rest of his school years wondering where Eddie went, if he was alive. Anytime he would pass someone with curly hair, he would do a double take. Eventually, Steve gave up, coming to terms with the ache in his chest that blossomed the day Eddie left. That is, until he sees a familiar mess of curly hair plastered across the music stores window. 8 years changed a person, but Steve knew that it was Eddie, that grin permanently ingrained onto his brain.

And so, Steve spends a fortune on concert tickets, hauling ass to Cincinnati. Steve felt alive for the first time in 8 years as he stood in the venue, bodies pressing against him as he watched his once best friend perform on stage.

Eddie was a wildfire, and Steve wanted to be burned.

The second Eddie played the last chord of the show, his eyes fell on Steve. He was instantly moving, running through the stage wings and out the door. Steve had made his way out of the mess of people, getting only a second to breathe before a body slammed into him. Arms wrapped around his middle tightly, the smell of cigarette smoke, sweat, and leather enveloping him. He scooped Eddie up into his arms, spinning him around. Once they let go, Eddie looked up at Steve, the same crooked grin from 8 years ago spreading across his face.

“Hi.”

“Hey.”

I have not been on tumbleweed for so long help 🔮

[whatismordor]

fanartists who draw steve harrington with hearing aids/using Sign, I hope your pillow is cold and your showers are long and you fall asleep easily and that you thrive!! in everything you do!!!

[whatismordor]

strap in, assholes, I've thought of another Deaf Steve AU for your consideration

(ps the steddie on this one is very brief, I haven't thought that part out too thoroughly just yet)

this takes place in like, early to mid 2000s

so in this universe, there's no catastrophe, no major physical traumas, no sickness, etc. steve is simply born without his hearing

his parents are not only rich, but are also super super concerned with appearances and because they're negligent assholes about it, they get steve fitted for hearing aids as soon as he's old enough to realistically begin talking

the hearing aids really don't do much for him, but the harringtons don't wanna worry about more surgeries or medical stays or being held back from their business trips/work holidays. you catch my drift. they forego the cochlear avenue but still hold out hope that steve will be "normal enough" with the "help" of a pair of hearing aids

and because the hearing aids only give him back so much, his oral language skills develop differently and at a much slower pace. it's not that he doesn't have the intellectual capacity — he absolutely does, the setting he's in just doesn't accommodate his needs

I imagine by the age of three or four, a nanny starts staying with him during the long weeks that his parents are gone. I also imagine that one of these nannies knows Sign and sees steve drifting without any communication that's suited to him, so they take it upon themselves to teach him

this goes on for years until one day, there's a phone call or an in person message or something that indicates that mr and mrs harrington have been in a traveling accident. this leaves steve parentless

he's immediately put into foster care, and from there, things go downhill. he gets into fights at school, becomes distant at each new place he stays at, and continues to isolate himself. he develops a very stubbornly independent approach to things, teaching himself to sign, speaking up for himself even if he can't hear how alien he sounds to the other students or adults at school

he keeps going from home to home until he lands at the home of tim and marissa buckley. marissa teaches a special ed class at a local middle school, and tim is a general contractor. they have three kids — a girl named robin, who's a year younger than steve, and twins dexter and benjamin

and steve is shocked by the patience of the parents, and also shocked by the fact that mrs buckley seems keen on connecting with him. the rest of the family is also learning Sign, but steve latches onto marissa the quickest because she reminds him of his nanny

tim ends up being the one who takes steve to most of his audiology appointments, or just other places he needs to be, and though tim doesn't know as much Sign as his wife, he still tries to cue steve in on conversations. just small talk about school or what steve likes to do or just "boyish" banter

dex and ben don't interact with steve much outside of bugging him to play like,,fucking kickball in the backyard, but they still form a tentative bond

robin is the hardest nut of the bunch to crack, and steves not too determined about actually becoming friends with her. in fact, most of the time, he's just waiting for the other shoe to drop with these people so he can be spat out again to the next family until he's kicked out of the system for good

even when he's getting his act together, he's still just waiting for it to happen. soon like four months have gone by and there's still no sign of the buckleys kicking him out or announcing that another family would be "better equipped" for him

here's a fun fact though: middle school kids are really fucking mean. and robins one of the only openly gay people in her grade. steves heard rumors that she's been bullied, but then he sees it happening in real time and he just. is seeing absolute red about it

he seeks out the fucker who graffiti'd her locker and lo and behold, gets into another fight at school

he's so Sure that this is the breaking point, but after his suspension is declared, marissa and tim sit him down not to scold him, but to wrap his knuckles and tell him how proud they are that he stood up for robin

and speaking of robin, steve's cool status with her just tripled easily. they start to become so close that at school, gossip starts that they're an item. one day someone flat out asks and robin, while signing, just says, "oh no! he's actually my big brother."

(if steve cries about that later by himself, that's his business)

there's still one dilemma steve has yet to get over though, and that's passing eighth grade. the constant moving and fighting has finally caught up to him, and he's forced to sign up for peer tutoring

this whipsmart, firecracker of a seventh grader, nancy wheeler, not only agrees to learn Sign, but also to help steve pass his classes

he's so fucking in love with nancy its not even funny. but the more they hang out, the less he wants to be with her and the more he wants to just be friends with her. plus, he doesn't miss the way robin ogles nancy when she thinks neither of them will notice

may/june rolls around and steve ends up with solid Bs in most, if not all, of his classes. he's on track to staying on track and the buckleys are ecstatic about it. marissa and tim find a cake at the grocery and have it say, "congratulations steve!" on it in big, loopy writing. they sign it to him as soon as he gets home from his last day of school for the year

after the weekend comes and goes and the celebration dies down, the two sit steve down and his initial thoughts are, "oh shit, my stay here is over." which majorly sucks, because the buckleys are the first family he's stayed with in a while that he's actually enjoyed staying with and getting to know

he's bonded with robin. he's bonded with ben and dex. he thinks maybe the same about marissa and tim. and he really really really doesn't wanna lose that. because not only has he come to think of them in a sort of pseudo-family sense, but they also have done and continue to do so much to accommodate steve and try to help him thrive and have resources as a young, deaf kid

so you can imagine how elated he is and how surreal it feels when they ask him flat out how he'd feel about being steve buckley. about officially being their son

years go by, until steve is in his senior year. he and robin have frequented several jobs together already, and this is the first year they've let go of their overprotective sibling instincts with one another and have gone to separate venues of work

steve ends up working part time at the library, while robin ends up at the video store

and one of steve's classmates from school (who he's 99% sure is redoing senior year) comes in pretty often. they don't talk at first, but every night, steve comes home and vents to robin about this really pretty classmate of his who plays in a thrash metal band and has far too many overdue fees

(and, if we're considering the library au, maybe steve pays off those fees and eddie ends up asking him out)

((like, he takes the time to learn as much basic Sign as he can within like a week of time, and the pulls steve aside after the library closes for the evening and just flat out asks))

robin is cautiously optimistic about this new guy that steve has a thing for, but she also knows eddie from drama club, so she not only has a good radar for the kind of person he is, but also knows exactly where to find him if he fucks things up with her big brother

cause listen — steves not immune to having experienced not-so-good encounters with a hearing partner. she's seen the way he or his deafness have been treated like a burden or a commodity, and she's very much hoping that's not the case with eddie

spoiler alert: eddie's very visibly autistic, so he knows what it's like to have been treated in a similar fashion. he has no plans to be that kind of an asshat to steve (and he very much is not)

but yeah long story short, give me deaf steve with a healthy sense of family and a willingness to be cared for thank you and goodbye

Military steve because he has no self worth + steddie - 🌙

After vecna, Steve enlists. He doesn’t have any plans for his future, he feels worthless. The only way he can redeem himself is through the military. He goes through basics, excelling.

1990s rolls around. Steve Harrington is deployed to fight in the Gulf War. He is a part of Operation DESERT STORM. Steve watches men and women he had grown to love die, over and over. These people who deserved to live, all having that ripped from them, while he lived. He survived.

Steve comes back once the war is over, Robin the first one to see him. Their reunion was full of snot and tears. However, the person behind Robin is unexpected. He assumed Dustin, or Nancy would be there. Not Eddie Munson.

After the Upside Down, Eddie vanished for a bit. He went up to Indianapolis, performing and getting big. He made a name for himself. He came back, a month before Steve was deployed. They spent the month rekindling a flame they didnt know was there. Eddie had kissed him the night before he flew out, whispering a soft, “Come back to me, pretty boy,” against his lips.

Steve fought the war, and won. He came back, if not for himself, then for Eddie.

Standing there in the airport, staring at the man he had grown to love during their year apart was overwhelming. He slammed into Eddie, lifting him off the ground and spinning him. It was so familiar, the feeling of Eddies arms around him, the smell of leather and smoke. He was finally home.
