An Ongoing List of All my Steve/Eddie Headcanon Quirks! Under the cut because I let this fly away from me. Will probably come back with more.

Steve

Sings the alphabet out loud when he's washing his hands

Enjoys Cobb salad a fearful amount

Flip-flops on whether or not he likes olives

Pickle juice drinker. But only when it's ice cold.

Brushes his teeth before eating, but brushes again after every meal

Had headgear braces—the whole ordeal was done before he started sophomore year, though

Afraid of submerged manmade objects

Can just vomit when he feels he needs to. He'll be in the middle of a conversation and then just—"Hold on, I have to go do something." When he comes back, he just casually mentions that he threw up (turns out he's actively having a migraine episode. and his medication is making him nauseous)

Might have GERD. Doesn't care enough to go to the doctor for it. Will just chew a couple Tums and hope for the best.

Big time milk drinker. May even throw in a couple ice cubes if he feels it's necessary. (it's almost always necessary)

Chews on ice.

Often found eating straight out of a shredded cheese baggie when it's 3am. Sometimes leaves shredded cheese on the floor or counter when he's trying to eat it in the dark.

Cannot smoke weed out a dirty bong. He worries that he'll inhale mold or something.

Afraid of mold.

Marlboros

Carrot cake enjoyer! Especially with real carrots in the batter

Will eat raw cookie dough. And will also drink the occasional raw egg. And enjoys eating raw fish in his sushi. Likes his steak rare. Lowkey might be a vampire, but nobody's brave enough to bring it up.

Loves the smell of Pine-Sol and dry erase board markers and Sharpies

Always carries an umbrella because he spent an ungodly amount of time doing his hair the morning it decided to rain.

Loves to just yell. He doesn't care if it's unnecessary. If he feels the urge to do it, he's going to do it. (Lacks impulse control)

If somebody tells him they want or need something, you bet your ass he's going to buy it. No, he doesn't want to be paid back. Yes, you better take it. No, there's no ulterior motives, he just wants to help you out.

Does not fuck with spiders (technically canon)

Squeamish

Is unable to tell when he's hungry or needs to pee unless it becomes extremely urgent very quickly.

Will fall on his face if asked to a handstand. Doesn't know how to do a somersault. Somehow can do a little front flip, though. He is flexible only when he wants to be, otherwise, it doesn't come naturally.

Hot dogs freak him out. Doesn't mind some chicken nuggets, though.

Butterscotch, Vanilla with Caramel Ribbons, Moose Tracks, and Salted Caramel, and Cherry Garcia are his favorite ice cream flavors.

Will eat an entire sleeve of Rolos if you leave him unattended with one.

Favorite sports teams; Basketball: Indiana Pacers, Boston Celtics, and Lakers. Baseball: Boston Red Sox, New York Mets, Seattle Mariners. Football: Cowboys, Steelers, and Packers.

Eddie

Hiccups when he's nervous

Would fuck up a taco salad any day of the week

He relates something to The Lord of The Rings or The Hobbit in every conversation he has. Unless it's completely serious.

Wets his toothbrush before putting on toothpaste, but doesn't wet it again afterwards

Didn't need braces

Afraid of birds, but especially ducks (this is sorta canon)

Has emetophobia

If he laughs too hard, he'll spray whatever he was drinking out of his nostrils

Doesn't drink milk. Just hates the taste of it on its own.

Hates the sound of people chewing.

Very flippant on his like for cheese. Macaroni and cheese is fine—so are any pasta dishes with cheese. But a grilled cheese? A regular sandwich? Spray can cheese? Cheese out of the bag? He'd rather die again.

Will put off cleaning out his bong (or pipe or grinder or whatever other tools he wants to use to smoke weed) until it literally leaves a bad taste in his mouth that isn't caused by his buds.

There was black mold in the trailer once after a leaky roof—ended up needing an inhaler for a little while afterwards. (me too dude, me too)

American Spirits

Chocolate cake or riot.

Burnt meat. Burnt cookies. Burnt eggs...or riot. (I believe in Eddie having contamination OCD, so I think he'd often overcook all his food that he's afraid will still be raw if he doesn't cook them a certain way)

Loves the smell of gasoline and charred wood and the earth right before it rains

Raw dogging the rain. He doesn't give a shit. He's got places to be.

Can't whisper

Appreciates gifts, but finds it hard to accept them when they're something he's been wanting, but that something is expensive.

Doesn't fuck with flies.

Oh duudeee I dropped this food on the floor! *shrugs* Oh well, five second rule. (It's been fifteen seconds since he dropped it.)

No perception of time

You want him to do a front flip or a handstand or to hang upside down from the monkey bars? Consider it done. Might need help righting himself again, though. Gets dizzy.

Anemic. Refuses to take iron supplements, though. He's gonna pound down three sausages—like a real man (said in growly, bear voice. but it's Eddie saying it.) He's gonna choke at least once.

Cookies and Cream, Cookie Dough, Mint Chocolate Chip, and Plain Vanilla are his.

Cannot resist a sleeve of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Do not leave Eddie alone with peanut butter cups.

Only fucks with sports when it comes to the Olympics. Or hockey; big Bruins fan.

Both (Common Quirks Shared Between Them)

Carpal tunnel syndrome goes craazzyy

Kick/hit/twitch in their sleep

Sleep talkers (Steve more so just mumbles, but Eddie will hold a nonsensical conversation)

Clogs the sink/shower drains with hair, but neither will own up to who did it—it's impossible to tell anyway, their hair is always just a tangled, disgusting mess when they end up using a snake to clean out the drains

Nightlight in their bedroom(s) after the Vecna chaos

Refuses to go into any sort of bat exhibit at a zoo. No thanks.

Knows how to smoke a pack of Smarties (the American ones) before they actually start smoking cigarettes

Sweating like fucking crazy when they're sleeping. Literally have to stop having skin on skin contact halfway through the night because it just gets too wet and gross.

Can deepthroat popsicles. Will turn it into a competition.

Fruity alcoholic drink? Yes please. (maybe with a little paper umbrella in it)

Selfless lovers

Doesn't like hunting or fishing. Makes them sad to kill an animal themselves.

Really good at the rope climbing thing in gym class.

Eat Hot Pockets straight out of the microwave. Will burn their tongues. Will cry about it.

Bonk heads every time they kiss.

Both wear reading glasses; Steve's are a much, much stronger prescription and he's only needed them since his junior year of high school, Eddie has needed his since he was a little kid.

Love getting lost on Wikipedia together. Just clicking links, going further and further down rabbit holes.

my partner might be onto something when she says you can disguise your pickiness and food sensitivity as an adult by calling yourself a “purist.” so instead of saying “the taste and texture of cooked raisins make me want to hmork,” you say “i’m actually kind of a cinnamon roll purist, i prefer just a classic cinnamon filling and a really good dough instead of something with a ton of random mix ins,” which takes you from who gave this four year old a bachelor degree to oh wow this guy is a pretentious asshole about more things than i even thought was possible

Jesus Christ I have JUST realized that women use FTM to mean full time mom on the app I use to find recipes. I was like WHY ARE SO MANY TRANS PEOPLE MAKING MEDIOCRE PASTA DISHES!?

What if I tell you that the ending of the original Lilo and Stitch was important because Nani fighting tooth and nail for custody over Lilo takes place against a history of the separation of Indigenous families? What if I tell you that the ending of the original Lilo and Stitch was important because it shows that Nani was not inherently a bad guardian, just a young overwhelmed woman who needed a support system and not punishment (just like many families esp Black and Brown single mothers do)?

And then Disney spat upon that ending for the live action remake?

I'm watching the only valid version of Lilo & Stitch and I completely forgot they didn't draw a cartoon version of Elvis for this scene. They just used an actual portrait of him. This movie is so great.

It's not that kind of library.

In other words...

You are being lied to
