    Summary

    Someone had taken a huge spoon and scooped the organs right out of his body, leaving him hollow. And yet he felt sick, gut churning as the world spun around him.

    His surroundings blurred until he was all that was left, him and the bottomless pit on his chest.

    And then there was a hand, on his shoulder. The weight of it enough to pull him out of his own head, just for a moment.

    “Todd? Hey.” Someone tried to get his attention, a familiar voice.

    Neil.

     

    or, they've been friends for a few months now, and Todd has been doing a good job at keeping his struggles hidden.
    That is, until one day he doesn't show up at lunch, and for the first time ever he's got people who notice his absence.

    Summary

    After saving Eddie from the Upside Down, Steve hides him at his house while the party concocts a plot to clear Eddie's name. What Steve doesn't expect is how much he likes hanging out with Eddie as they get to know each other.

    Under the looming shadow of the Mind Flayer threatening to destroy Hawkins, Steve and Eddie realize they're each grappling with their own darkness, from Steve's father's impossible expectations to Eddie's feelings of worthlessness.

    Their friendship develops into something more even as the party prepares to fight Vecna and his monsters one last time. Steve must decide if he's ready to shrug off the rigid roles assigned to him and become his own person. Eddie must learn to embrace what Steve has been trying to show him every day since nearly dying: that he's worth saving.

     

    Author's Note: This is basically me speculating what Season 5 might look like, with Eddie surviving and from Steve's perspective. Enjoy!

    Summary

    Beverly pulled the conversation that time, “Why don't you ask him out?”

    Mike nodded at her, almost in agreement.

    “Because-” Eddie started flailing his hands around a moment, “-I've had this dream since fucking 6th grade that Richie would ask me out.”

    Beverly stared at him sympathetically then and opened her mouth to say something.

    “You can ask him out first,” Stan interrupted, pointing out, “-and then he can ask you out. Simple.”

    “It's not-”

    “I get it, Eddie,” Mike followed, maybe trying to break up fucking… Stan, “-he's been flirting with you for so long, you just want to see him execute on it.”

    “Yes, yeah,” Eddie sighed, running a hand through his hair, “-it's kinda fucked up if I have to finally do it.”

    “Well,” Bev pursed her lips (cherry red, it was kinda her signature thing) like she was thinking, “-why don't you just kick it up a notch?”

    Or Eddie is stubborn and wants Richie to make the first move (Beverly has a solution).
