#eddie: yeah we did

[tommygettingwrittenoff]

confession time!!! can't wait for bt bones

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

okay but the realization that Howdy is actually a little bit of a scoundrel? a scammer even?? was like the BEST part of the update for me!!! his got a bit of spice to him i like that!

idk if it’s just me but it feels like it’s very important that Eddie was the only have like a extra audio thing on his character sheet in the neighborhood besides Wally and the You page?? like that feels significant somehow right??

i just really loved both Howdy and Eddie in these updates they were so great

GOD i know i know he's got some Kick to him! he's got Flavor! i love how he turned the common perception of his character on its side - everyone expected him to be wholesome and helpful and sweet, and then the update came in with the fuckin steel chair-

hmmmm i can see both sides of the beetle on Eddie's bio - the significance, and the possibility of it just being There because most pages had 1-2 bugs, and the audio was about Eddie. but ALSO its so so likely that is Was significant! i honestly thought so as well!

i mean, the beetle is very uhhh, Valentine looking? the prevalent heart shapes, the soft pink-yellow-white coloring, plus its an audio centered on Eddie and Frank. we already know FranklyDear is going to be an established Couple - so i'd agree that the significant is There! and if we lived in an alternate world where we didn't know about FranklyDear, we'd all be losing our collective shit over this and theorizing the hell outta it

Thinking about Steve and Eddie waiting for the right time to propose to each other and they somehow do it at the same time.

And they don't know that the other wants to propose, nor do they tell the same people. Nancy and Jonathan know that Eddie wants to propose to Steve. Robin and Dustin know that Steve wants to propose to Eddie. The reason why Steve hasn't said anything to Nancy and Jonathan was because it felt a little bit weird to talk about it with your ex and her partner. On the other side Eddie KNEW neither Robin nor Dustin could keep a secret from Steve he didn't trust those two with the secret and Eddie really wanted to be special.

They chose the same place to propose, too - the Lover's Lake because that's where everything began and they wanted to give that day a good connotation. Steve and Dustin and Robin has worked hard for a character sheet for Steve ; it was literally Steve if everything they had gone through was part of a DnD campaign but with the difference that he was married to 'Eddie The Banished' (Steve planned to give the sheet to Eddie and wait until he got to the married part until he asked "If you would have me?" and get out the ring). Meanwhile Eddie and Nancy and Jonathan worked on this album full of photos with the party together over the years (the kids through high school + the graduation photos ; the photos from their trips around the state ; Steve with either Robin or Nancy and Jonathan or Eddie or the kids or the Byers or everyone ; little moments and random photos with caption like 'First time trying pineapple on pizza!!!' or 'First date without the kids around') with the last photo being of Steve and Eddie (the very first photo they took together) with the question "Will you marry me?" under it.

They looked over them at the same time. Stopped to fucking process what was going on. Look at each other like two idiots. They took the ring out at the same time and I don't know if they started laughing or crying or arguing over who would propose but I can guarantee the answer was yes from them both.

BONUS : Meanwhile Robin & Dustin meet with Nancy & Jonathan while hiding near the lake and they all do the Spider-Man meme while questioning each other what they were doing there. Everyone fucking face palmed when they came to the conclusion that those two were going to propose at the same time. Pure gold.

2 x BONUS : Somehow Max knew about it and said nothing because she thought it would be funny (and was 100% right)

seven(ish) sentence sunday!

I was tagged by @cowboy-buck @alyxmastershipper @wildlife4life @disasterbuckdiaz @giddyupbuck @wikiangela @watchyourbuck thank you!!!!!

Imma be honest I didn't do a lot of writing this weekend oskasokaoskas but here's more of the wayf fic because I love this fic so much and I'm always thinking about it. prev snippet here.

Eddie was touchy. That was not new information. Not exactly at least. Buck was used to a squeeze on his shoulder, a hand on his back, a thigh pressed into his, their shoulders brushing when they walked too close to each other, knees bumping together. But this was more than what he knew what to do with. He wasn't sure Eddie actually stopped touching him since they left the room. His hand was around his wrist, their fingers were laced together, his arm was around his waist or draped over his shoulders, he would hook their ankles under the table, he would wrap their pinkies together.  Not that Buck minded. He was getting a bit drunk on it though.

imma tag @bucks118 and @housewifebuck because it feels weird not to tag them by now oskaoskasokaosk

I can't reblog it for some reason, but I do have my version of events that's been in my head like forever, so I'm posting it as a picture

[buck2eddie]

fic moodboard inspired by and my heart beats by @henswilsons

It’s Chimney, who brings it up first. “At this point I don’t think I know how to be anything except a dad.”

Or, Christopher grows up. Eddie plants a garden.

[unnecessarilygrandiose]

buck really said 'she sees me' after 6x12. 'she sees me' after he showed up to eddie's to escape the rotating cast of visitors. 'she sees me' after maddie probably tried to enlist eddie too because he knew buck was getting all those visitors that wore him out but he happened not to be one of them. 'she sees me' after you died, buck. you're going to feel a lot of different ways about that. sometimes all at the same time.

'she sees me. y'know like she really sees me for who i am and what i've been through. i think she might see even more in me than i see in myself.' after eddie sees him for exactly who he is, after he expects buck not to be anything for anybdy else's sake.

like, okay.

[heartbroken-heartbreaker]

I made a post like this a while back but I feel it's worth saying again

I absolutely love these books and this tv show has been a long time coming. I hope the show does well (I am quite certain it will) and I am so incredibly excited for new people to be introduced to this incredible world.

But on the other hand, I don't want this little community we have to be gone. Like I have grown way too attached to seeing all of the regular L&C creators and fandom members on here and quite soon I think we will be totally flooded. I never want to gatekeep something so precious to me, and I know that we will gain so many more cool creations but a part of me is a little sad (and almost nostalgic?) over it all.

But then on the whole other hand, I am absolutely terrified of what the new fans will be like. If they are anything like the Stranger Things and Wednesday fans (Just the toxic ones of course) I am going to cry. I have this gut feeling that the show will take off and then we will have TikTok trends and stuff (how weird is that lol) and that honestly freaks me out so much. I just really don't want people to ruin what we have going right now, you know? Like yall just KNOW that there will be people simping for the skull.

Like I'll miss seeing you guys so much :,)

Just had the horrible realization about Eddie saying ‘86 was gonna be his year.

Anyone here ever worked in food service? When a restaurant runs out of an item, they say “86 on ___”

The definition is literally to kick out, reject, or discard someone/something.

Eddie was 86’ed from Stranger Things and I’m so sorry to share this but I cannot suffer alone

oh but shannon knew it was joever fr the second eddie called her "christopher's mum"

Hi Anna 💕💕💕

I was thinking about Eddie and his will and it makes me wonder, do you think Buck has a will? If so when do you think he actually made one and what do you think he has in it?

It’s interesting to think about like if he had one during season 1 or not and what he would even put in it. Or who he had as an emergency contact back then before Maddie came. Who do you think he had as his emergency contact when he was wandering? Do you think he had a will then?

Do you think there’s a specific point that made him make a will? I’m thinking he has one now especially after Eddie told him about being Chris’ legal guardian and Jee-yun but it just makes me think when he actually made one.

What are your thoughts???

-❤️🪐

Well, it's a plot point in lone star, but I think it applies anyway, it is a dangerous job, and even if he didn't have all that much to put in said will when he joined the lafd, he would be encouraged to write one, and I think he would still have something, at least thinking of getting the jeep back to Maddie or something, and to have an advanced directive that didn't put him at the mercy of his parents if something happened. I think he probably updated it, still think the primary receiver would be Maddie tho, I mean, it's cute to think of him leaving stuff for Chris, but it's unclear on what he has to leave to begin with, like, the loft is a lease, so it would be his savings? And I honestly see him finding out Maddie is pregnant and changing his will to make it go to Jee's college fund or something like that. And there's the way when Maddie escaped Doug, she ran to him with nothing but 2 suitcases and I think part of him would want to make sure she would have something if he's not there anymore. And honestly, I think the Buck who joined the force didn't think anyone cared about him enough to bother, so I think he would have a will that's written in crazy detail to make sure no one would have to do anything about his death.

As for emergency contact, since Bobby shows up at the hospital after the tracheotomy and after he gets cut while on the blood tines, the safest assumption is that it was Bobby when he joined the 118, probably defaulted to his parents before that, and now it's some combination of Maddie and Bobby.

But the nature of the job requires a will, it's not something he can delay all that much, even more considering the fact he almost died a lot in those first 2 (?) years, if he didn't have a will by the time of the truck explosion, he definitely made one after. But the question of what is he leaving to who depends on what he has to leave to begin with. It's not like Buck ever talks about money. But it's like, maybe a list of sentimental stuff he wants to make sure goes to the right person and everything else goes to Maddie/Jee.

kinda wanna set up a betting pool for the ao3 ship brackets. i don’t even know who with, i just wanna be right

Me: *talking about the older Disney Princess movies and how I'm re-watching them* Someone: Oh yeah, but man those older ones, the OG 3? They were horrible representation for wom- Me:

Me: Speak not another word, lest we get thrusted back into the good year of 2014. This is why Frozen gagged y'all, cause people had that antiquated and twisted mindset of something that doesn't exist.

[thewingedwolf]

abc should just immediately go canon with buddie by having them kiss at Eddie’s apartment after a stressful call - one or both of them has a near miss, they’re drinking beers after Christopher has fallen asleep, mention how terrifying the call was, especially considering the lightning strike just a few months before and the highway collapse, and next thing they know they’re stress making out on Eddie’s couch until Eddie gets up and starts clearly panicking over the Gay of it all, and Buck decides they should call it a night - and then have the season deal with the fallout of it. That way they can make buddie canon immediately in the viewer’s eyes, while still letting us see them develop into a relationship!

[buttbiscuit]

Fine I'll say it

Yes selling ketamine to a vulnerable teenager is bad but Eddie is a worse person for the way he treated Lucas and encouraged Lucas' friends to act

Even if you hate jocks and hate sports and hate parties and whatever.... it's pretty obvious Lucas didn't have friends outside of Hellfire Club and the fact Eddie scheduled the campaign final specifically on the night of the championship game (he wouldve known the exact date, there wouldve been posters and announcements for months prior and hes not stupid) had to have been on purpose. And if he was trying to make Lucas choose a side? That's fucked up. Let a kid have a hobby outside your realm of interests you gatekeeping prick.

If by chance he genuinely didn't know the date? He could've postponed. People postpone D&D campaigns all the fucking time and it's not like Eddie had a job so he had to worry about scheduling issues. It's clear why you can't just move the date of a championship basketball game for 7 nerds to play a boardgame. No, he did this on purpose. To weed out the jocks in his nerd club. To ostracise Lucas specifically.

The way Eddie interacts with Mike and Dustin shows he knows the people in Hellfire Club. He would've known who Lucas is. He wouldve known he loves D&D as much as the rest of them but because he also has a different interest that Eddie dislikes (not even for a moral reason but just because its popular), he's forced out. A group supposedly for outsiders is excluding one of their own for *checks notes* being an outsider? It's fucked up and just plain mean.

And Lucas will never forget that none of his friends NOT A SINGLE ONE went to the championship game that he won.
