Thought about Neil shouting in terror at Billy to "get his dog" as (Werewolf) Steve approaches him very menacingly, fangs bared. 🐺

Eddie: Dude, Hargrove definitely wants to fuck you. He has checked out your ass not once, but three times this morning!
Steve: No, he doesn’t! Just shut up, man…
*10 minutes later*
Billy: Hey, Harrington. You should wear those jeans more often. They fit you really well.
Steve: Oh haha, thanks!
Eddie: *whispers* See?!!!
Steve: Maybe he just likes the design—
Eddie: DESIGN OF YOUR ASS, YES!!

Steve with the tibetan mastiff he got as a puppy when someone told him it was a full grown shih tzu, and Billy with the chihuahua someone told him was a pit-bull puppy.
They got to talking at the dog park because Bruce was *bullying Archie (*Bruce is obsessed with Archie, and Archie's a big baby)

After he’s released from the hospital, Billy spends a lot of time sleeping. He falls asleep easily during the day, and he only wakes in the middle of the night if his pain medication has worn out. Steve can tell when that happens because Billy will start whimpering, especially after trying to get himself up to take more pain medication. That’s when Steve will turn on a light to go grab his bottle of pills and a glass of water. He’ll help Billy sit up and fluff up Billy’s pillow while he’s at it. Then as soon as Billy’s medicated and tucked in, he’s out like the bedside lamp Steve turns off next to him. The problem is that Steve is not great at falling back asleep once he’s awake. He can’t resent Billy for needing it, but he’s exhausted, too, and he’s got to get up early to bring Robin to school and get to work and- and-!
It just never ends, and Steve finds himself awake all night until dawn. When he gets home from work the next day, Billy asks if he can sit with him on the couch. Steve sighs. He’s got dinner to prepare. He should probably do some laundry. But Billy’s got this soft look on his face and he can’t say no to that. Steve sits down next to Billy, the TV at a low volume, and Billy leans his whole body weight on Steve’s shoulder. The quiet inhale exhale and rise and fall of Billy chest signifies that he’s fallen asleep again. Steve shifts so they’re a bit more comfortable, laying himself down with Billy on top of him like a weighted blanket. Steve tries to think about what it is he had to do before he sat down, but nothing comes to mind. His eyelids feel heavy and Billy feels warm and Steve feels himself drift off.
It would make quite a cute photo, which is exactly what Robin says to Jonathan when he joins her and Nancy in dropping off food to Steve and Billy’s apartment. Robin has a spare key, and they periodically do this as a thank you for saving our lives kind of thing for Billy and a please slow down and take care of yourself thing for Steve. Jonathan does snap a photo before they leave after much begging from the girls, hoping neither Billy nor Steve get too upset by it. Months later they get a copy of the photo for their anniversary - Sleeping Beauties ‘86. In it, Steve’s drooling and Billy’s face is smooshed against Steve’s chest. It’s embarrassing but sweet, and Steve will treasure it as a reminder of the best nap he ever had.

The littles learning about Lunar New Year and how it's the year of the Dragon.
Smol Billy running all over the coffee table, waving a red ribbon around and trying to growl and roar, "IT'S DWAGON TIME!!!"
No one is allowed to tell him that Billy's birthday is the year of the ram/goat.
