    Summary

    Steven Harrington was 3 years old when he saw Dr. Brenner for the first time, he was 12 when he saw him last.

    Steve had known about Eddie Munson since he started High School, did he know Eddie? Well, of course not. But the big hair and even bigger attitude are hard to miss.
    He has always wondered what it must be like to be like Eddie, not different, not a freak -because he was those things too- but what it must be like to be shamelessly different, to proudly be a freak.
    After getting his ass beat by Jonathan, he had finally decided he didn’t want to wonder anymore, he wanted to know.

    Summary

    Steve had a bad feeling, and this wasn't the first time it had happened.

    For as long as he could remember, he had always had hunches. Hunches about events that hadn't even happened yet but warned him before the shoe could drop. He was used to them. To the bad omens. To the anxiety they brought.

    Maybe, that's why he was as tense as a coiled spring when they entered Hawkins Lab, as gray as decayed as the rest of the Upside Down. But not even a hunch could have prepared him for what happened that day. He couldn't have braced himself for the party splitting up. He couldn't have braced himself for an argument with Dustin, much less the boy's violent reaction at him bringing Eddie into the conversation.

    He couldn't have expected to crack his head open into the ground, nor the world that waited for him when he opened his eyes once again. Neither the spider that bit him, or the powers that would later bring him.

    And when this peculiar world welcomed him, he couldn't help but wonder.

    Was that Munson? In a big sign? Wearing a hero-like costume?

    And why on Earth was he blond?

    Summary

    “I think Eddie Munson flirted with me today.”

    Robin chokes on her drink.

    “That’s what I said to her too,” Stevie mumbles.

    “Excuse me?” Robin rasps, clearly trying not to cough. “Eddie Munson? World-famous, grammy-nominated rockstar with like, three studio-albums under her belt? That Eddie Munson?”

    (Or, when a rockstar starts frequenting the coffee shop Stevie works at, she's as starstruck as she is gay. Chaos ensues.)
